I don’t know if they are actually called prayer cloths or napkins etc...

But I know people who have talked about them, saying they pray over the cloth and put the cloth under the pillow of their sick relative.

If you do this, could you please explain why and provide me with scriptures so I may study this.

Thank you!

Would you still believe that it was a sin or unnatural?

I am an atheist. Someone told me that the reason I am an atheist is because I don't want to be held accountable for my sins. I responded by saying "no, I just have not seen any evidence that he exists and I refuse to believe in anything for which there is no proof." He then went on some rant about how I am trying to justify my immoral lifestyle and how I actually do believe in God and that I am just trying to convince myself that he does not exist. I get the feeling that he is just being a mouthpeice for his church and that this is the general belief among Christians. Has it occured to you people that maybe not everyone is as obsessed with the afterlife as you people are. I don't spend every waking hour worrying about my salvation. I just go with the flow and whatever happens happens. That it.

I believe it is ok to live life for your own sake and not be pressured into giving anything if you dont want to. I wish i wouldnt be pressured tolive the life of a Christian and miss out on the things that life have to offer. I dont think you HAVE to wait until marriage to have sex . Its good if you do but i dont think i ever could. My familyis religious and they are pushing me to be like them I want to go to heaven but dont want to live a boring life of a Christian. Id like to enjoy myself some what. Any young people going through the same thing?

Do you think we could amend that contract we signed (you guys know the one -- where we traded our immortal souls, pledged to do the devil's work, and signed in blood) that we will only continue working for satan upon the conditions that he will "tempt" all christians to spell the word atheist correctly?

;)

I just can't see how it can still be the most misspelled word on this forum and it can be found in greater than 90% of the questions (if you include the answers as well).

...like in a Microsoft Access database or something so they don't go over, or is it just a "psyche" for the rest when they die?

I've heard people on here call it a theory a fact a hoax....bs...and numerous other things.

When other life is discovered in this vast universe and the life on that planet is vastly different from our own due to the "theory of evolution"...what will the religous right wingers in this country do then?

How did sex become so taboo? What about masturbation? It's a perfectly natural and normal thing. It's actually a very beautiful thing that our bodies have the ability to do. All animals do it. Why does christianutty make it out to be such a taboo thing?

"Eternity is a child playing checkers".



For at least 10 years I wondered about this and then suddenly it dawned. ~ : )



Can you love this child?
This child is very humble,
doesn't say much at all.
I was caught up in the game,
it was the veil then,
now it is enlightenment unfolding.
The child and I.........inseparable. ~ : )

how do you not believe that god is the source of evil, etc.

after all, if man is created in god's image and man is selfish, judgemental, etc, doesn't that automatically mean that god is too?
