Religion & Spirituality - 26 May 2007

I see a question on here that some one asked if a Muslim girl is free to wear a veil or not, then Muslim answerd she is free.

I live in Iran . Here any girl who don't cover her body and hair will go to prisone and will be beaten if her parents don't pay for her crime.

Isn't Iran an example of Islamic country in the world?

I asked my father to don't wear like most of woman who cover all their body like most women do here in Iran because walking in street is so hard for me, then he told me if you don't wear it I will not let you go to collage.

I am Muslim girl and I am not free girl.
You Mulim are lieing , if nowadays people say lot of bad thing about Islam is because you are bad Muslim and don't blame some one other than youself.

In response to a previous question (first link), a few expressed this sentiment: "speed limits are a safety issue, marriage limits aren't."

But isn't that a matter of opinion? For example, between December 1995 to May 1999, Montana's daytime automobile speed limits were whatever was "reasonable and prudent." Even though I did not live in Montana, as a libertarian-leaning person, I really liked this law, and saw "reasonable and prudent" as, well, reasonable and prudent. I had hopes the concept would sweep the nation. But, alas, OTHERS SAW DANGER WHERE I DID NOT, and the law was changed to be more restrictive. Do those who support the legalization of same-sex marriage understand that OTHERS SEE DANGER WHERE THEY DO NOT?

Behold! I just discover the prove to put an end to the godless atheism ones and for all.... the banana!

Now if you study a well made banana you will find on the far side there are three ridges and on the close side two ridges. When a human hand is ready to hold a banana it will fit perfectly. So the hand and the banana and design by god one for the other.

You will also find that the maker of the banana almight god design it so people can see the state of the banana without pilling it: green means too early, yellow means just right and black means too late.

Now god also place a tap on the top so humans can open it easly. When you pill it the outer layer will rest gracefuly on your hands.

The top of the banana is design by god for ease of enter and the size is just right for the human mouth. The fruit is tasty, easy to digest and good for humans to eat.

Now, if you still don't belive that the banana and the rest of the universe are all designed by god you must be deluded!

If you die before the rapture, do you want to be burried or cremated to a crisp? Some Christians are worried if they get cremated they will not have a resserected body. It does not worry me, as I will not be here anyway if I die before the rapture. So what would you chose, I mean you will be in Heaven anyway so why worry? Cremations are a little cheeper to have than a normal funeral which will cost at least 5 grand.

Secular schools can never be tolerated because such schools have no religious instruction, and a general moral instruction without a religious foundation is built on air; consequently, all character training and religion must be derived from faith; we need believing people.

if a 2000(?) year old book said how you should worship magic mushrooms, because thier psychadelic effect would connect you in some way to wonderland when you died, would you have faith that this would come true? if it also stated that if you didnt worship magic mushrooms you would end up in some horryfing counterpart would you believe it.

Please limit the number of extremist views. However diversity across the religous demographics are welcome.

"A sin consists in loving something that God hates, or in hating something that God loves. "

Why do religons across the world all try to pass the same "Alltruistic" ideals? Why do the big religons Judeo-Christian-Muslim all embrace "join us or die" approaces?

Sin is a tool mankind created in order to assign black and white to various types of behavior IMO. How is it even moral when one person decides to kill another person soley based off of conflicting opinions/beliefs? (clarification: Those whom think they are better than others for whatever reason, or that a certain kinds of behavior makes individuals associated less valuable. prejudice on race religon orientation age lifestyle)

Makes no sense for religon to contain flaws if it represents God. (thus manmade) God would create all things (life) for the fact that we all want to keep living equa

I'd like for you all to go to ONE mass at a Catholic church and recognize our crucifex at the altar and tell me what other denominations has a crucifex as Jesus. I'd like you to go to ONE mass and tell me that we worship Mary. Tell me we don't worship Jesus. Why the ignorance? Over ONE prayer

I myself am Catholic and I'm trying to understand. I've gone through CCD and confirmation years ago, but I've never understood this. The Bible states the Jesus is the only one who is pure, but is the idea of Immaculate conception not that Mary was born pure? I always thought that Immaculate Conception was the birth of Jesus. When I found out it was the birth of Mary, the daughter of St Anne. So can someone explain the contradiction between the scripture and catechism?

I would say to all peoples of Faith please do not be lured by the devices of hateful thoughts for they are the stumbling blocks and are the stones that those blinded in their ignorance do throw upon the path and a hateful wandering in the paths of those with a deceitful heart that would betray the true Faith of Islam - therefore be joyful with the brothers and sisters that have restored themselves to the Light of Truth and Love.

How can the current pope over rule the ruling of a former pope?

Pope Pius X had declared in 1905: "Children who die without baptism go into limbo, where they do not enjoy God, but they do not suffer either, because having Original Sin, and only that, they do not deserve paradise, but neither hell or purgatory."

Now: THE Catholic Church is preparing to abandon the idea of limbo, the theological belief that children who die before being baptised are suspended in a space between heaven and hell

Did God lie to his original spokesman?

Previously, I asked “what if I don’t want to go to heaven”
Also I made it clear that what if I choose not to exist?

Are you people telling me, that your beliefs from whatever religion, is so very narrow, that the God you believe in, to be your creator, would offer you just two choices?
Live in Heaven or Hell?
Has none of you ever questioned why that God gave you the power of thought and choice?
Some may end up in Hell or Heaven by their actions alone. But what if one, qualifies to enter Heaven, but chooses to say no! Your replies suggest that we are not of our free will; we do as we are told or go to Hell!
For pity sake, that’s nothing short of suggesting God has no respect for his wonderful creations, and thus will treat you as a puppet. That is not Gods teaching.
Show me something that would suggest my request would be denied, and tell me why you would accept that denial if it here on earth.

The spiritual supermarket, which is infested with these hope-sellers, has done roaring business in every age in almost every country in the world. But unlike we ordinary mortals, these holy men do not have to deliver the goods in this life time. All they have to do is make empty promises, which may or not come true in the life hereafter!

the way to heaven is through belief that jesus christ is your savior. however, the jews were the chosen people of god... does that mean they will not go to heaven? and since the word of god is eternal, how can the not be accepted into heaven even after jesus christ? and being omniscient, i'm sure he would have seen it coming that they condemn his 'son' and reject his teachings.

He' so wonderful, so loving, so forgiving, he gave his only son, he wants us to be good and not follow Satan.....so why are we expected to follow blindly? Why can't he just show up and prove who he claims to be?

Don't talk to me about the beauty of the earth and nature and how everything seems to work out and that it must be the work of God, there's scientific evidence to support all that...also known as FACTS. Don't quote the Bible either, give me YOUR words.

About the 144,000 people who will be saved? Why only 144,000? Where did that number come from? What will happen to all the other JWs? Are these predetermined people? Or what? Does it depend on how righteous you are? Or how well you follow the doctrine set forth by the leaders of JWs? Thanks for any insight.
