I became a Christian a long time ago. Problem is, I've never really been sure I have been "saved" (as in from hell).
My mother is nitpicky. Even if we are having a nice, pleasant conversation and I happen to have a cup of coffee or soda and accidently slosh some on the floor, she immediately starts jerking around and griping even though I promptly clean it up.Pleasant conversation ended!This humiliates me and quite frankly infuriates me. I can't change my family. But I NEED to change the way I react. I have an explosive temper, especially when it comes to things like the above mentioned. If I feel the slightest bit backed up against a wall or attacked by a family member for no reason I do one of two things.....mull up and quit speaking for at least 2 days, or explode and an ongoing yell match ensues. Also I have a problem with thought control. And I have a lust for certain TV shows I know I shouldn't watch. Can anyone give me advice? Is it just me or all christians who deal with it?

Inside that circle are a billion planets. Amongst those planets could easily be thousands, if not millions, of intelligent lifeforms.

Now move your hand two inches up. Millions of more life forms. Do this again and again, all night long until you've covered the entire sky. Now, go round to the other side of the world and do it again. How many trillions of life forms did you count?

Humans have the arrogance to believe that in this unimaginably large universe, we were somehow created extra special on this planet by some almighty being, and that we must wait and wait for this being to reveal why we are the one species amongst trillions worthy of it's attention.

Not only that, but we must spend our paltry insignificant lives on this tiny spec of a world in a constant state of worship in order to receive some sort of "reward" we are too "sinful" to otherwise receive.

One must wonder if the quadrillions of other life forms in the universe must go through this nonsense?

It's laughable.

The translation means God. So how can this be God's name? Its like saying Dios os God's name but when translated,it means God in Spanish. Is it not just another title?

I swear I had the most realistic dream when I found myself starring back at my own image in the mirror during a dream and the third eye opened up in the middle of my forehead, which was a perfect triangle above my two other eyes.

The third eye was starring at me the hardest, for which I believe was my own inner self’s message to look within myself to heal whatever might have been aligning me spiritually.

Do you believe in the third eye? Plus, do you believe you can find your psychic self better sometimes in the dream realm?

DO NOT give me any answers that say Jesus, God, or the Holy Spirit isn't real because you are just wasting my time because I know that He is real and I love Him very much.

How many of you actually read it everyday and practice what you read? Just a question and not an intention to offend anyone.

OK, this is part of a long series of "getting over my christianophobia" questions, I am trying to be more understanding and open minded...so please bear with me and try not to be offended.

The bible is full of prophets and miracle workers yet there are also passages that say anybody who claims to see the future is a sorcerer and is evil...revelations for example is supposed to be a vision of the future...so how are the 2 distinguished. Why is it that throughout history some are some burned at the stake and some are added to the bible?

What do most christians think about people (modern day) with psychic ability?
thx

I have modified my behavior in the short time I have been on YAHOO Q&A to try to answer questions that I really feel I have something to add, even if it is an attempt at humor. I have tried to curb my sometimes caustic tongue, and enjoy thoughtful questions and answers. I also love a good laugh. I am trying to resist the cutting barbs that are usually not very funny anyhow.

I would really like to know more about your beliefs, spells, etc. What are some good books and/or sites that can help me with this.

Also, are these spells real? Meaning...do they really work?

Why would they lie about this? Anyone can google it and find out all about the temple ceremony anyway. It's no longer secret ..er sacred or whatever.

is there more gay christians then any other religion?
I ask this because from what i can see there is, and that seems weird that the LGBT community would actually "Want" to be in a religion that condemns them.

your thoughts?
