Religion & Spirituality - 21 June 2007

to quote scriptures and doctrine in order to judge Christians? It just seems wrong to judge someone by something you don't believe in.

Well this morning i woke up to find the promise ring that my boyfriend gave me gone. I searched everywhere but i couldn't find it. Then i prayed to the Lord that He would guide me in the right direction to it and a couple hours later i sat down on the couch and i looked down and i saw it in my backpack. The weird thing is i haven't touched my backpack for several days now so how could it have ended up there? I was wearing my ring last night and i lost it while i was sleeping; no one was in the room besides me, and no one knew i lost it until i told them.. So what happened was really a miracle and God answered my prayer. The same thing happened with some earrings i had a month ago; i was sleeping over at a friend's house and during the drive there i switched my earrings and misplaced them. The next morning i searched everywhere; i even took everything out and turned my purse inside out. However, several days later, I found them in my makeup bag sitting on top of everything.

and if you curse them you will be cursed. I would like to help and support Israel but I hate the way the Palestinians are being treated. Am I cursed for not going along and agreeing with the Israeli Jews.

I am currently studying the Middle Eastern culture and I don't want to offend anyone.

I am merely doing this out of the respect that I have come to appreciate after reading the past, present and future of Islam.

Most of the tattoos I have now are spiritual.. I have a celtic cross, dream catcher with a wolf howling on each side and a full breasted eagle above it. I want to get something on the chest of the eagle, even if it's one word or just noting it in the (23:19) format.

No I am not Muslim, but I do like some of the scriptures in the Quran.

PLEASE ONLY INTELLIGENT ANSWERS. ANYTHING OFFENSIVE WILL BE REPORTED.

Thank you for the respect.

I have always wondered why many people of different religions seem to put down people of other religions or belifs...such as when someone asked a question about Athiests and Christians many Athiests said christians were ignorant and another said atheists just grew up like not believing in Santa Clause.......don't you think people should just accept that others happen to believe otherwise? they said that Athiests were not ignorant but isn't it ignorant to say that all Christians and other religion people are ignorant or that maybe some Muslims, Christians etc are actually more grown up...
is it wrong to say those people are maybe ignorant than who they are talking about? why is it that people have to be judgmental or rude or more concieded.....I am not saying all Atheists are I am saying those people or the people who believe that

Jack Nicholson's character in "The Witches of Eastwick" lamented:

“Of course, when we make mistakes they call it evil. When God makes mistakes, they call it ... nature. So whaddaya think? Women: a mistake? Or did he do it to us on purpose!?! Because I really wanna know! Because if it's a mistake, maybe we can dos something about it! Find a cure. Invent a vaccine. Build up our immune systems...”

Feel free to change men for women to comply with your prospective. But has anyone else felt that a love interest has been sent to Earth for the sole purpose of torturing you?

I'm an atheist, but even I can relate to Jack's quote, lol.

Is it just me or are these people nuts?
Why havent they at least been locked up?
What do religious people think of these people?

To be honest I am suprised they havent been shot or something.
Why havent their kids been taken away? Arent they being brainwashed? Isnt it child abuse?
If anyone tried that in the UK, they would soon be stopped from preaching abuse and hate, either by the law or other ways.

Doesn't the bible say do not worship any other gods before me? I mean why don't we worship Noah or Moses? Weren't they messagers through God? Please don't be offended. This is only my opinion. Protestants say that Mary didn't have any powers and that she only gave birth to Jesus Christ but Jesus Christ didn't have powers on his own. God gave him powers to serve his purpose to the world. Mary could've easily tried getting rid of Jesus Christ but because she loves God and honor him. She did what God ordered. I think we should honor God only not Jesus Christ, Mary or any other people who served their purpose for God.

I deleted my last two questions about:
Do you think it's a mockery of Jesus the film: You me and Dupree?

and: Can beautiful America still be saved?

I think I got to deep into conjectures and too little into my analysis.

I will not touch the topics again unless I find more reliable facts about them.

If so, what form of jewelry and what symbols representing what religion how? Also, do you wear it/them where others can see it? Has anybody ever asked about it/them? Any conflict because of them? Just curious.

I myself like to wear a necklace with a dragon claw holding a blue marble at the end. The claw has four toes representing the four elements to me, and the blue marble represents water which is the element of my sign, Scorpio. Also, my Chinese zodiac sign happens to be the dragon. In effect, it represents me and my being Eclectic by borrowing bits from different religions to make a unique religion that works for just me.
I also wear a ring with the Star of David on it representing my Jewish upbringing.

I do wear both where people can see them. I've only been asked once about the necklace. The person was just curious what it was.

Ok Hell was created for the Devil and his angels correct? The devil is destined to spend eternity there and he will be tormented for all eternity right? So why does he care if he has company or not? Why is this whole free will thing a battle between God and Satan over who's going to get the most souls?

I can understand having a problem with fundies, But Jesus himself whether you believe he was the son of god or not was a amazing being with some radical revalutionary ideas, it's not his fault his ideas were ignored and looked over for Paul's dogma.

This will, of course (because that makes so much sense, you yahoos!!) be deleted within 5 minutes.

If it gets my account deleted, I think anybody should be proud to be in Bad Squirrel's footsteps...

Anyway, can anybody give me an update on Debra M ?

Cults often replace God with a man or organisation who say they have the secret knowledge or are the only ones who can interpret it. Are you sure you're not in one?

There are so many violent things in the Bible: polygomy, incest, and lot of very violent killing in God's name. Do we really read this stuff to kids?

Disclosure: atheist

My favorite: "Jesus Christ" sung by U2 written by Woodie Guthrie

Other examples:

Jesus Built my Hotrod by Ministry, Jesus Walks by Kanye West, In My Time of Dying by Led Zeppelin, Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring by Bach, Black Jesus by Ghostface, Personal Jesus by Depeche Mode, Jesus of Suburbia by Greenday...you get the point.

What's your favorite JC-centric song? What JC song would you add to a hypothetical "R&S JC Mega-Mix" playlist?

hey dears,

i noticed that lots of atheists think that whatever believers (muslims or jews or christians) do things and prevent from doing other things is because GOD said so...??!

will it's not just because god said so..god said so because he want the humanity goodness..and there's an explanation for everything and why did god choosed it for us or prevent us from doing it...
i mean god told us to do things like worshipping him for example and to prevent from doing other things like stealing or lieing or killing.. and all of their reasons are for the mankind salvation from getting to lots of troubles and misfortunes..

my question is:
is the reason for most of the atheists for being atheists is because of ignorance..??!

peace to you
