do you people realize that there is situation ex: when person being seriously ill was healed. not by physical doctos, no even by todays medicine. but by simple prayer. And i'm not saying you should or shouldn't start doing it. i'm just giving you a fact, that hoping on self, or friends, families doesn't help.

I've been learning a lot about Christianity, and now I want to learn more about Judaism, but I'm looking for "reliable sources".

I've found a couple of websites, but I want "Reliable ones".

Picture this;
A married couple, husband & wife. He is against homosexuality yet is not judgemental. She claims to be "bi-sexual" and has since their marriage she has been with 4 females, with out him being present, or approving of the females she brings home. (he said, if they were 'my kind of girl' & if I could partake, it would be different) She blieves that, he may not be a part of her exrta relationships, claiming she has what they have, and it is him lusting after more mates. Her being with these other females is mearly filling in the 'gaps' that he physicly can't fill.

As asked earlier, do you think this should be a ligitamate loop hole for her, or is this indeed adultry since it is not a shared experience for the both of them.

Should the guy leave her, make her end her bi-sexual ways or else, or accept his life and deal with it?

Think about it. Religion has never had a problem with murder or violence. It's been built on a foundation based on violence. Theres a chuck full of violence in the Holy Books. People have persecuted, tortured, and burned. More people have been killed in the Name of God than anything else...BUT that was a long time ago and most people have come to their senses. But there's still that small group of lunatics (ex. The Evangelicals, The Jesus Camp People, That idiot spamming Crusades on the R&S Board) I'm not sure they even take the 5th Commandment SERIOUSLY...I have no problem with Religion in General but the more Devout people are the more ~Reasonable~ murder seems. It's like Negotiating with God. It just depends on who does the killing and whose getting killed. There's that mentality that's like "Jesus will Reward me for killing this Pagan". It's basically Justifying Murder...how do you deal with people like that...? I want to send them Crashing back down to Reality...

Do not indoctrinate your children. Enlighten them to other possibilities, at least for the advancement of humanity.

My church requires that anyone who is licensed or ordained must lead at least one person to Christ per year to remain licensed/ordained. Now, I understand that we are to witness to those who aren't saved, but I thought it was God/Christ who actually changed the person's heart to make them believe. How does one go about being sure that someone is led to Christ? I can witness, beg, plead, shove my beliefs down someone's throat, but if God doesn't change their heart, how can I actually lead them there?

And follow by saying that people are free to worship as they wish, are you really inviting me to perform a Black Mass in your Church? Afterall, by rights, you don't have freedom from that happening, especially since it requires me to do so to increase the blasphemy.

Can someone tell what or who was Satan, Lucifer and 666? Did the Bible say Satan will rule the earth then will hand over his power to Jesus? Did Satan exist the same time with Jehova? Was Satan a bad guy?

This lady had been my friend for several years! The first thing I said to her when I meet her was that she had a beautiful aura around her. This is what started our friendship. My friend called me the other day and told me that I was in league with the devil and she read from some book that her neighbor a J.W. had loaned her to get her away from me! I cried so hard that I was sobbing! I am not evil! I wasn't hurting that J.W.woman! Why would she destroy my friendship? I didn't think badly of them till this happened! Why do they think things like seeing aura's are evil? All of the old painting have aura's around the heads or whole body's! Were the saints evil? Do J.W. think these paintings are evil? Now I've lost my best friend! Should I repent like my friend and this J.W. say or just give up my friend to this cult?

What did God have to lose by sending his son Jesus, to die, when God knows that Jesus would have been sent back up to him?

If he really died for our sins, what happen with our orginal sin? but maybe thats why I don't believe in fairytales, but I would like to hear your opinions
