Since Religion IS mythology, why does Yahoo separate them? No religion has any concrete proof of its claims. Be it Mithraens, Hindu, Christ-ians, Mohammedans, Jews... isn't it ALL Myth?

Is it a sin if you look at porn? What if you are married and watch porn with your partner? Is that still a sin? People do have sex and that is how the"miracle" is happening afterwards. THE BIRTH OF A CHILD! so what's the problem of watching porn? Why does Church seems to care so much about it? PLEASE HELP

They get upset very easily and go on the defensive. Why the hell is this? No one else seems to.

I am told the following; Maitreya is not a religious leader, but an educator in the broadest sense.

He is here to inspire us to create a new era based on sharing and justice, so that all may have the basic necessities of life: food, shelter, health care, and education.

His open mission in the world is about to begin. As Maitreya himself has said: 'Soon, now very soon, you will see my face and hear my words.'

Think of it this way in heaven...if everything is perfect ...and all we do is worship God....wouldnt that make the heaven, in a sense, robotic?..because without any problems there really is no point of living.. and we are kinda like robots living aimlessly...with no real life in us

I have severe Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, and this influences many things in my life. Unlike some people with OCD, I not only have to have physical things a certain way, I need to think certain thoughts in order to, say, close a door. For example, when I close a door, the moment it closes I have to be thinking something positive. But, my OCD is so severe that I have secondary thoughts while thinking the positive thoughts that I don’t purposely think, like "I’m going to die soon," or some sort of blasphemous thought. I need to think the opposite of what the secondary thought is for me to complete a bout of OCD (while the secondary thought is still there). It’s like I’m sharing my mind with the voice of Satan. I don't really think what my OCD makes me think, but the amount of blasphemies committed by my secondary thoughts is innumerable. I am planning on converting to Catholicism and being baptized after I get rid of my OCD, so that I can start with a clean slate that I can control.

Hail Mary, Full of Grace, The Lord is with thee.

Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now, and at the hour of death.

Amen.

do you suppose more people would believe in the judeo-christian god if the people who made him up weren't so overzealous. had they had a working knowledge of physics they would have known that you can't created matter from nothing. so they would have probably left the whole story of creation out or, at the very least, altered it to where god didn't create the universe but rather he formed it with the materials that already existed. and maybe they would have realized that people would have questioned god's perfection, and thus wouldn't have insisted on making it such a staple throughout the bible.

If there isn't anything specific about that, where did it come from? And if there is, why do people say things like "they (the Jews) think they are the "chosen ones"?

How long is too long to ground your kid? If a kid is disobedient how long is long enough- if the kid is really bad... for example if they tried to take a swing at you?

I want to be an intercessory prayer , and grow stronger in Christ Jesus. How do I develop a closer relationship if the Bible seems boring or like a chore, I don't like that I feel like that. I can be into it after church but through the week I rob God of his time...

So I'm trying to make it fun by trying to meet other Christian gals who share my belief.

What else do you propose?


Thank You for all who reply who truly want to help!!!!
God Bless YOU for taking time out to answer!
