Religion & Spirituality - 21 March 2007

No offense, but if I wanted to listen to someone with a nasally voice whine for an hour, I'd go find a Jewish grandmother.

Atheists: please feel free to insult me in any way you please, so long as it's funny. Thanks. Christian jokes fun too...

America saved hundreds of thosands of Bosniak Muslims...and heres the gratitutde from the Bosinian Muslim community...

"Bosnian Muslim immigrant's rampage at a Utah shopping mall, killing five Americans while shouting Allahu Akbar or Allah is Great before being gunned down by police" http://islam-watch.org/Serbianna/Utah-shopping-mall-killing-jihad.htm

Unfortunately, this story is nothing new. The national news media has intentionally ignored this trend, but of course the local media, where the Muslims committ their murder of non-muslim Americans, cannot ignore it.

Some journalists are even calling this trend "Sudden Jihad Syndrome". Like Investors Business Daily --

"It looks like the Muslim teen who opened fire on shoppers in a Salt Lake City mall is yet another case of 'sudden jihad syndrome,' a condition in which normal-appearing American Muslims abruptly turn violent."http://www.investors.com/editorial/editorialcontent.asp?secid=1501&status=article&id=256521423294106

(Note: I asked this question the other day, and got very little response. So, I hoped I could post it again, and see if I get a better response)

My life has been a spiritual journey and, during my walk, I have begun to see a Divine Pattern in the communications of our Life. This pattern, as I have seen it, is based in denial. A denial that is so imbedded into a person that when you try to touch upon it with someone, they will become -extremely- uncomfortable without knowing why; and they might even call you crazy. (However, I have also realized that sometimes you can break others of this denial, and they might love you for it, as if you're some kind of supernatural being.)

Isn't this what Jesus did? Think about it...
And people either wanted to kill him, or worshipped him! I would even go so far as to say that most of us still don't understand what he was trying to tell us. He freed our minds, but we have to do our own part to maintain that and explore it and let it become us.

Surely religion has made things a lot easier for self-appointed ruling classes over the years, including monarchies and churches, especially since the only power those with power really have over anyone is the threat of death; with religion there's a choice between heaven and hell - serve your country/leader/church like a good sheep and go to heaven.

Relationships includes:
love relationships....hate relationships
Relationship with fam.... partner or special someone
Relationship with God....relationship with creation
relationship with yourself (understanding yourself...hate yourself...love yourself?)
I don't know.... you tell me....and explain your answer if it is not too much trouble... but if you don't have time a simple yes or no would help a lot.

I've heard that we had a past life but for some reason our memory has been erased, but i saw a show on t.v. where a guy was hipnotized and talked about his past life. Is this really true?

Why have you decided to be an Satanists??? Don't you feel kind of evil to be following Satan? Haven't you heard what kind of things he has done? I mean, you know you are going to Hell, right? Aren't you scared??? Why do you not like Christians??? I mean, yes, God and Satan are enemies, but besides that why do you hate them? I am a little curious.....(by the way I am a Christian and I wanted to know if any of you Satanists feel any evil come over you sometimes)

And why don't us Catholics believe in it? Where in the bible does it come from?

I am on a basketball team where everyone is Baptist, except me.
We get along, but they we all surprised when they found out I was Catholic, and I can't help feeling they don't really like me because of it. And they don't get some of the things I believe in.
How do I explain some of these difficult questions without sounding weird?

...we may experience perfection in a spiritual life after we die? Maybe we were designed this way...everything on earth breaks down eventually. Thoughts?

Since there is no intelligent creator. What's the point?

This is a serious question. I am just trying to understand because even when I did not know about the Bible, I still felt there was a God sustaining us.
