Religion & Spirituality - 18 May 2007

well Im an 18 year old girl. Im not a virgin, and Im very ashamed of that. I've been raised in the church my whole life and I love God. I've had sex 3 times in my entire life. But they were all with different guys :/ I always ended up in a bad situation where if I said no I would lose a friend and be stranded in the middle of nowhere or I would lose the "love" from soemone I thought I desperatley needed. I've turned my life around completley. and I dont want to have sex anymore, at least until Im in a long committed loving relationship, if not til marraige, Idealy I would wait for marraige, but it's so hard to find a guy thats willing to wait THAT long :( anyway I guess what I was wondering is, how far CAN I go with a boyfriend without crossing the line? Serious answers only please. thank you so much.

Then he rose into the sky and became a god?

Question: So then what was the big sacrifice?
If he knew ahead of time he was going to accomplish that; and, in effect, get the last laugh -- what was the big sacrifice?

C'mon church people, figure that one out.

Neither have any scriptural backing, but are all kinds of crazy believing them.

What if the person who wrote the Bible was Dyselexic, and it wasnt almighty God people were meant to worship but the almighty Dog?

Cos quite frankly i find the idea of a dog much more plausible and a lot more enjoyable.

Who agrees with me?

And then 72 virgins for the Islamic martyr, 72 names of Tarot cards, 72 names of LaVey's Satanic Bible (powers of darkness), 72 names of angels & demons, numerology, Goetia, etc.

Isn't this more than a coincidence? The devil is usurping Gods Name here again?

Even if they fancy themselves a prayer warrior? I am thinking this person is just guilty of sloth as her home is a mess too. Do we not look the other way too often when it comes to sloth?

A controversy is raging in Israel, in evangelical circles in the U.S. and on kabbalah web forums worldwide following the posthumous release of what a revered Sephardic rabbi claimed to be the name of the Messiah.

When Rabbi Yitzchak Kaduri died in February 2006, somewhere between the age of 106 and 117, 300,000 attended his funeral in Jerusalem.

Before Kaduri died, he reportedly wrote the name of the Messiah on a small note, requesting it remained sealed for one year after his death. The note revealed the name of the Messiah as "Yehoshua" or "Yeshua" – or the Hebrew name Jesus.
A few months before his death, Kaduri gave a Yom Kippur address in which he gave clues as to how to recognize the Messiah. He told those gathered for the Day of Atonement in his synagogue the Messiah would not come until former Prime Minister Ariel Sharon dies. Shortly after what Kaduri characterized as his Nov. 4, 2003, encounter with the Messiah, in which he said he learned his name, the rabbi said.

i know that most of y'all believe the Bible is a made up book of fairy tales, etc., but...just wondering, would you explain Jesus' miracles as medicine practices before it's time, or something similar?
Seriously, i am really curious how a non-believer would see these acts.
Thanks, y'all.

How come when ever a disaster (hurricane/flood/tornado) happens people always pray and "thank god" that they survived. If prayer worked, why didn't they pray that the disaster didn't happen the first place?

Ok, the banana thing was funny. The peanut butter example was ludicris. Crocoduck was just amazingly blatent. Having said all that, the jokes are getting old. Please, please, stop with them. 50 per day pretty much kills any statement that could be made, and now it's just an absurdity to continue this. Let Roy Comfort, Kirk Cameron, and Chuck Missler (the peanut butter guy) die an obscure death (figuratively of course) and drop the issues. It's not funny any more, so can we all agree to just drop it?

Tony Blair will declare himself a Roman Catholic on leaving Downing Street, according to a priest close to him.

Father Michael Seed, who is known for bringing high-profile politicians and aristocrats into the Catholic fold and who says Mass for the Blairs in Downing Street each week when they are in London, made the prediction to friends at a recent memorial service.

YOU PUT THE DEVIL OUT, BUT DID YOU LET HIM LEAVE HIS BAGS?
This is powerful!


You got out of a bad relationship because it was bad,
but you are still resentful and angry
(you let the devil leave his bags)

You got out of financial debt, but you still can't
control the desire to spend on frivolous things
(you let the devil leave his bags)

You got out of a bad habit or addiction, but you still long to try it just one more time
(you let the devil leave his bags)

You said, I forgive you, but you can't seem to forget and have peace with that person
(you let the devil leave his bags)

You told your unequally yoked mate that it was over,
but you still continue to call
(you let the devil leave his bags)

You got out of that horribly oppressive job, but you are still
trying to sabotage the company after you've left
(you let the devil leave his bags)

You cut off the affair with that married man/woman, but you
still lust after him/her
(you let the devil leave his bags)

You broke off your relationship with that hurtful, abusive person, but you are suspicious and distrusting of every new person you meet (you let the devil leave his bags)

You decided to let go of the past hurts from growing up in an
unstable environment, yet you believe you are unworthy of love from others and you refuse to get attached to anyone
(you let the devil leave his bags)

When you put the devil out, please make sure he takes his bags!

HAPPINESS KEEPS YOU SWEET
TRIALS KEEP YOU STRONG
AND SORROWS KEEP YOU HUMAN
FAILURES KEEP YOU HUMBLE
SUCCESS KEEPS YOU GLOWING
BUT ONLY GOD KEEPS YOU GOING!

in The Remainder of 2007,
Let the devil Take his bags with him!
Be Blessed, Healthy and Happy

In christianity you must believe the son of god Jesus died for your sins. That would mean all Jews are not going to heaven because they believe he was a messiah not the son of God. So does that mean Jesus who was a Jew did not save any of his people. Very big contradiction. Someone please explain this to me.
