It was reported this week that the second most popular name for baby boys in the UK is Muhammad and that this name is likely to become the most popular name for baby boys within a year:

Does this mean that Islam will eventually take over as the predominant religion within the UK?

A reliable source has told me that a forfather killed a gypsywoman that he loved for being a heratic, and the crone(the girls aunt) of the gypsy troup put a curse on his decendants with all her anger . They had a daughter before she was killed named Lilith. So we are children of her ,and good people with incrediably bad luck, so how can we atone for it or turn it away?

If you look at what we consider "moral" today it differs vastly from what past societies did. The majority of people do not consider women chattel, other races as not human beings, or slavery as a good thing. (I was going to say torture, but our government thinks its just fine) We believe there are basic human rights, which was not the case at the time of the founding of Christianity. So, has morality evolved? If so, why? Also, does it go against the Bible, since these changes occured long after it was written.

for the record, I do believe in God but have many questions. Some Christians automatically ridicule me or bash me for asking. I don't get some of you " LOVING " Christians?

I recently had a supervisor tell me that only good things come from God and that he called them Blessings, not Luck. I then asked him if having a disability or an injury was a Blessing and he said "No!". I then asked him where bad things came from and he said, "I DON'T KNOW!", and he did not want to talk about it any more, like most fundamentalist traditionalists act.

I think every moment of life is a Blessing even our hardships. I think they are part of our life's work within the Entertainment spectrum from Heaven's view. I think when we see hardship as a Blessing, then we can envision things like everyone doing their best right now whether we think so or not.

What do you think?

it stands to be logical that the energy that makes who we are has a conversion also into the after life of maybe even heaven.
What do you think?

that they possible practice it themselves. For example, throughout the years as science has filled in many gaps that religion once did, religion had to evolve and back away from these areas, effectively evolving the lie and turning it into fact as the years go by. Would this be fair to say?

...DO you feel because you're not serving god, that somehow you are relinquished from all your sinful acts? Did you begin to serve God because you realize he is the truth, or because some convinced you? or you wanted a miracle? or something to believe in? when you had no-body?

I'm a christian/Buddhist/me.

I've heard homosexuality is "against nature" (though bonobo chimpanzees naturally engage in homosexual activity on a regular basis).

I've just heard polygamy is "against nature" (though there are many species where one male mates with many females, such as lions).

It just occurred to me, which animal actually conducts a marriage ceremony?

I can think of none other than humans.

Since no other species marries, wouldn't that mean marriage is "against nature"?

Keep in mind I am not talking about cohabitation (aka "living in sin"). There are many species that mate for life (tho' not the majority of species).

But there isn't one species that conducts a marriage.

Thus my question: is marriage "against nature"?

If one look at the Pre-Christian era of ancient Europe or perhaps the world everyone had a believe in Reincarnation, the Abraham religions which arrived much later destoryed these beliefs and instilled a God fearing society with Heaven/Hell concept to rule over them.

My stance is Reincarnation is a fact, i do not believe in it but i'm aware that it is a fact where everyone has to go through, people want to believe that there is a heaven for them to meet their loved ones once they depart, this make belief ideolgy is deep rooted among the materialist people who fear death and once to be saved by any means.

what difference does it make how advanced our technology is? Or if the bible doesn't talk about computers or dumb shiit like that? So far the most impressive things that we've built are cities... OOoooOOOooOO good for us. IT ALL MEANS NOTHING THOUGH cos people ARE STILL THE SAME as they have always been, infact we're getting worse as time progresses.

People are gettin increasingly ignorant and uncaring to the wellfare of anyone but themselves. just about every guy i've ever known has been an a$shole and most of the girls i've met have all been herpes harbouring slutfests.

And it's beyond me why becoming a spoiled little stupid dirty tramp is the new fad.

Even some of the most successful (and i thought to be intelligent) people turned out to be complete wastes of space.

Religion doens't look at technological advancements cos they know it'll come eventually, so we focus more on becoming good ppl and working towards the good of mankind, which is more important than an ipod.

Really good people are going to church today. Say hi to them and learn something. A recent study had 90% of the people who have their lives together and act like an adult are regular church goers.

Grow up, get over your little childhood issue, and give thanks to Jesus Christ.

I am not interested in your stuppid answer.

HEBREW 4:
1Therefore, since the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us be careful that none of you be found to have fallen short of it. 2For we also have had the gospel preached to us, just as they did; but the message they heard was of no value to them, because those who heard did not combine it with faith.[a] 3Now we who have believed enter that rest, just as God has said,
"So I declared on oath in my anger,
'They shall never enter my rest.' "[b] And yet his work has been finished since the creation of the world. 4For somewhere he has spoken about the seventh day in these words: "And on the seventh day God rested from all his work."[c] 5And again in the passage above he says, "They shall never enter my rest."

Cause it seems to me people are so concerned with not being offensive that it just covers up the truth and its so phony.
