Do you think even though I was born attracted to the same sex that I should be punished for my feelings and following my heart?
Wasn't Mankind born of His image? I know the Bible says things against it and it is unnatural but am I supposed to completely sacrifice my life and the love of another person because I do not happen to fit in with his divine plan? I can't help how I feel or how I am . Was I just here to completely serve His interest and marry a person that I absolutely have no attraction to mentally or physically ?

how many of you really desire to see people saved from their sin- then what we need to do is lead the ones to Jesus that need saving, not bash a certain sin. I do believe that homosexuality is a sin, but when I read a question that asked if they should stay of out of the church, it made me angry? Why you ask- because each of us was saved from something- if I had to stay out of a church until I was saved, I would never have been saved. Let us lead these, and others to the Lord by example, not pointing fingers at a particular sin. Everyone of us had a particular sin or sins that was an "unforgivable" in God's eyes, except through His blood. God loved us while we were "yet in sin". How about doing that for someone else, no matter the sin. What do you think?

Two men were arguing about a flag flapping in the wind. "It's the wind that is really moving," stated the first one. "No, it is the flag that is moving," contended the second. A Zen master, who happened to be walking by, overheard the debate and interrupted them. "Neither the flag nor the wind is moving," he said, "It is mind that moves." the last reply could have just as well been "tree is moving, stone is moving or teeth is moving" Since all are part of the "soup", everything is in movement or part of the same movement, everything is connected, right? when he says mind, he is not speaking about an individual mind, but a universal mind, nothingness? or does he mean that without a mind there is no perception of either flag, nor wind. and without wind there is no flag nor mind, since they all are "grown" together, they are all dependent on each other?

they pick, and yell at the great seeker cuss I say God will make me perfect and holy, cuss I seek after him and ask him too. God is a God who can do all things, why not ask to walk completly in his ways? The christians say to me God will not do that, He sent his son to make us perfect and holy. So the christians teach that God wants us to sin, so Jesus can be put on the cross, and have a purpose, to make us rightous and holy. O.K.

my God says I will make you perfect and holy cuss you hunger for my rightousness. No one searched for rightousness that is why I sent Jesus.
who walks right, the greatseeker or the christians? Not all by the way, I think?

Where do psychics get their powers? I know that a lot of them say that it runs in the family and they've been gifted since birth. I know that a lot of Chrstians are against psychics... why? And also, can you be a psychic and a Christian at the same time?

It seems to me that both include forms of witchcraft and magic. If JK Rowling were a confessed Christian like JRR Tolkien, would that make the books ok?

Jesus said "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except thru me." You won't go to Heaven believing in Buddah, Mohammed, or any other false God. Being Baptist, Methodist, or any other demoniation won't get you there either. Only by repenting of your sins ( telling God your sorry for your sin, and turning from them) and placing your trust in Jesus Christ and Him alone for eternal life will get you to Heaven.

It is the perfect argument, everyone knows it. Athiests and Monkies are just too scared to admit it.

I walk to alot of christian couples, and I talk about heaven. They are like there's gonna be something better than my wife in heaven, or my husband. He or she is only a worldly thing. I am insulted, Why are you all so loveless. Now I know why the father say his love is not with marrages. You are all loveless when it comes to marrage.

1John2: 15,16
15. Love not the world, neither the things THAT are in the world. IF an man love the world, the LOVE of the Father is not in him.
16. For all that is in the world the lust of the FLESH, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.

So there is NO SEX in heaven. But all desire something in this world...........is the teachings crazy,,,or do we have to seek for a heavnly way to have sex?
maybe our way is evil that is why it is not aloud in heaven.?

the Earth is only a few thousand years old, the story of Noah's Ark is 100% true. Dinosaurs existed at the same time as people. All animals were vegetarians until eve ate the apple.

Wow! Are there really people who buy this? I don't care if the theory of evolution is still a work in progress, this other stuff is a fairy tale and it's hard for a rational mind to believe that people can buy into it.

I know people of faith who know that these stories are only parables. They tell me their fundamentalist friends believe they will fry in hell if they don't accept the whole story, warts and all.

I welcome comments from believers of either category. And unbelievers such as myself.

I wonder how many people will tell me I'm damned for not buying the package...

i think everyone is entitled to their own opinion so it's rare that i report anyone. but, being a mother, i get concerned when i see very explicit language in a Q or A, or nudey pics for avatars and i report them immediately, because i know there are kids in here sometimes.

i find many people (often the believers) seem to report things that are against their religion, even if the Q or A is legit and respectful. i often wonder who has the final say as to whether the violation gets sent out, and if your account gets deleted, and how they make that judgement

what do you report, if anything?

Then why to people who do such, claim that they are children of the Father, God. Could they be decieving themselves? Could they be guilty of decieving others?
Could they be "prodigal" sons(daughters). Or were they "never known"?
I'm fine with people doing whatever they want to with their lives. But I just can't see how that lifestyle mixes with the record we have in the gospel of the NT or the history of the OT.

Is everything in the outside (physical) world an allegorical symbolic reflection of the inner world, which portrays elements of an individual's own consciousness?

Please tell me --in your own words-- why you believe this to be true, or not. Thank You!
