Religion & Spirituality - 2 June 2007

I've noticed that the most populated religions and groups of people are also the most widely discussed beliefs.

Does this mean that they are also the most reasonable?

Just as a public service to them so they can get a feel of real persecution. Kind of like the way they've treated others throughout history.

Was it fair enough to kill Vali (brother of Sugriva) by lord Rama , behind the bushes , when he was in combat with Sugriva? If yes , why?, if no, don't explain.

Abraham heard 'voices' from God telling him to kill his son. Schizophrenics hear the same thing. What's the difference?

22:1 And it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I am.

22:2 And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.

22:3 And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and saddled his ***, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son, and clave the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went unto the place of which God had told him.

22:4 Then on the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place afar off.

22:5 And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide ye here with the ***; and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again to you.

Abraham is simply the first documented case of schizophrenia.

If we were to have one world election lets say making the world wide King the presedent of the United States. And that president would have the power to rule every country and authority to bring people back to obeying the ten commandments, closing down all porn, stopping every violent offender and bringing true Christian films to the cinamas and true Christian schools.

In essance if we were to be putting into power one person who could be a caretaker for the world unto Christ comes to rule in power, who would you put forward and why?

If it's only a profession of your faith, I don't see how it can save you. So why would Jesus command it? I see a big disconnect here, it's important and it's not important. What gives?

If I told you I talked to an invisible, imaginary being, you would think I was mentally ill. But if you claim you talk to God, no one thinks you're mentally ill. What gives?

I've heard the saying "There are no stupid questions" from my teachers in the past but people can sometimes be rather foolish. So...what's the dumbest, most idiotic question you've come across?

some insects and bugs get attracted towards light so much that in order to get close to it, they burn themselves up or get suffocated inside the source.
Are we like them who get attracted towards the "Light" and will someday get succumbed to it?

is it the fate of all "God-seekers" and "truth-seekers" and "happiness-seekers?"
who see a beautiful shiny light, unaware of the consequences?

OR

do only few people succumb to that "light", if yes then who are they?

Do you not believe in all science or is it just evolution that you don't particularly like? For instance, do you believe in Adaptation? Cells? Elements? Atoms? Gravity? Basically, what other scientific theories do you have a problem with besides evolution?

Obviously i know each person has their own measure and degree of belief, so this questions is more of a survey i guess.

I used to believe like you. Then I started to think what about when people make bowel (turd). What is this? Is it a horrible sin? It is evil and disgusting and hateful. If you do not think this, the next time you make bowel then look at it close. I did this. Get up close in the water and look. You will see it. It is hateful and evil! And priest do this every day! Yes even Jesus do it? and Mary? You say Mary is pure when she make this filth evil from her **shole every day, maybe twice a day? There can not be a god. No not with this evil violent action take place day after day! Answer this! Don't answer until you use bathroom and get with it, get up close and touch.

I see and hear certain christians saying that they accepted Jesus, therefore Jesus took their sins with Him in the cross, but I see and hear those same christians saying that they still are sinners. What exactly does that mean? Does it mean that if I say "I accept Jesus" that should be enough? Some of you will say I have to accept Him and read the Bible, follow the Scriptures, but yet I will still be a sinner, right? So if I am a sinner whatsover, what's the point on just saying "I accept Jesus"? Don't you think there is more beyond that? I believe I will only get rid of my sins through several lives. What do you think?

If there is no higher power to hold you responsible for your actions, then how do you decide what is right or wrong? Do you go by what feels right?

Why not just forget morals all together and live for yourself, having as much fun as possible?
