ok, 10 points for who ever guesses it correct first.

*i am a monoteistic god.
*i send people to hell for not believing in me, yet i provide no good reasonable proof to believe in me in the first place.
*i am a homophope for some reason.
*the book which represents me makes no sense, and contains many fallicies and non-senses and contridictions.
*if you pay me money, i will send you to heaven.
*if you disobey my orders, i will send you to hell. (but you do have a choice, technically)
*im selective when it comes to miraculous healings, i can only do ones that would happen anyway.

which god am i?

I was locked up in a state Juvenile Hall for 2 years. We were supose to think a certain way. We didn't have to do anything wrong to get punished. We just had to have a thought that was contrary to what they were trying to teach us. We even did alot of tatle telling on kids who weren't
"thinking correctly. " Then they'd get punished and to top it off we'd bash them in accountability group. Punishments like not being able to talk to anyone for a month. If too many people broke the rules we all got punished even if we were innocent and then staff laid on the guilth trip that we weren't being hard enough on eachother. The program had to be completed before freedom could happen. But anyways, since then I've been in and out of cults. And I've noticed simuliarities between cults and that correction facility. For example, Jehovah's Witnesses who mess up can't talk to other J.W. But that's just one example. I feel like I'm trying to replace that control I was under. I'd be bad if I wasn't.

I'm Christian but I also believe in Astrology. I was wondering if the Bible actually says anything against it. I think the Bible has some subtle references to it.

Genesis 1:14
And God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate day from night, and let them serve as SIGNS to mark seasons and days and years,

Revelations 4:7
The first living creature was like a lion, the second was like an ox, the third had a face like a man, the fourth was like a flying eagle.

The four fixed signs of the zodiac are Leo, Taurus, Aquarius, and Scorpio. Leo is the sign of the lion, Taurus is a bull, and Aquarius is a man. Scorpio is also said to have three signs, one of which is an eagle.

I liked it. I already resonated on many levels with most things said, but it would make sense that we can create our lives with our thought processes..........what do you think?

I am under the impression that it can't be both ways. Either evidence exists and you don't need faith, or evidence doesn't exist and you do need faith. Which is it? (I've seen both given as an answer here.)

Thanks in advance.

Just because you don't have religion, you can't be a good person? That sounds like a pretty off-the-mark assumption, don't you think?

(And just for the record, I'm not an atheist. You could probably call me an agnostic if you wanted to split hairs, but we won't go into that right now)

Sparta fought Persia almost 500 years before even the birth of Christ, much less the birth of Islam.
Even though Islam was birthed out of Persia and the Movie 300 portrays Persia rather grotesquely, are some Muslims justified in their complaints regarding this Movie or is this just another rediculous over reaction by a backwards people?

If you choose heaven or hell, or nothingness, or reincarnation, or something else, why? And what makes you believe that? How do you know that you are right?

My wife was Jehova's Witness and I was Pentecostal but we haven't been to church in the 4 years we've been married and we haven't talked to our daughter about religion. So what does that make us? Athiest? Christian??

but they dont accept atheists who say that he doesnt exist because they dont feel him in their hearts or anywhere else?
is god maybe not so powerful since his presence cannot be felt by everybody? I mean i can say that i believe in god (words are just words) but i dont think that would change the fact that i dont feel him in my heart, mind, stomach , feet or anywhere else

Then what does this mean? (1 Corinthians 6:9-11 )

Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

Does that mean that the christians who do these things are not really christians? Because Paul says "And such WERE some of you". Does this mean that anyone who commits these sins will not get into heaven, because they are in fact not saved?
