Religion & Spirituality - 3 July 2007

sometimes the holy spirit will be so powerful and just overtake me...kind of like, i will be doing something and i will become so enthralled with it that i forget about myself and time and everything else. sometimes when i write, and go back to look at what i've written, i will think "wow, i don't even remember doing that!" that is just one example. it is the coolest feeling and really makes me feel closer to God, like i am really fulfilling his purpose for me.

I AIN'T AFRAID

chorus
I ain't afraid of your Yahweh
I ain't afraid of your Allah
I ain't afraid of your Jesus
I'm afraid of what you do in the name of your God

I ain't afraid of your churches
I ain't afraid of your temples
I ain't afraid of your praying
I'm afraid of what you do in the name of your God

verse
Rise up to your higher power
Free up from fear, it will devour you
Watch out for the ego of the hour
The ones who say they know it
Are the ones who will impose it on you

And if we evolved from P&S'ers, why are there still P&S'ers?

I mean really understand it, not just claim you do. I say no...actually, anyone that has studied evolution in depth, knows the answer...

Interesting criticism of both the Quran and Bible http://www.skepticsannotatedbible.com/quran/index.htm

Evolution - Cool graphics on this website. You will better understand evolution, so you can refute it and not sound stupid, or maybe accept it. http://www.becominghuman.org/

I am reading Bible History and found out that only good things write up about Jesus are left in the history. How about first 30 years of his life write up. If any of his follower did really write the Gospel, of course , it is the logic enough to add that missing 30 years.

P.S I am here 100% assuming that Bible Jesus exist and Gospels are reliable 100%.

Have they not read Revelations to the very end, wherein the tedium of heaven is described in exquisite detail?

Does God give them bonus points for rudeness?

of a deceased older lady. We will be giving them out at her memorial service on Thursday. She has no family or anybody so my boss, who was her financial advisor, is her trustee and the executor of her estate. So I made copies of the only photo I could find and on the back I'm putting a lable with her name, dob and dod, and a little Bible verse since she was REALLY Catholic.

I am reluctant to use the word atheist to describe my own unshakable disbelief. Not that I'm ashamed, afraid or even embarrassed. But simple because it seems so self evident to me, the truth, that there is no god, giving that conviction a special title somehow dignifies what it denies. After all, we don't have a special word for people who don't believe in ghosts or witches.

Lucian (circa 120-after 180) mentions Jesus


Lucian, (175 CE), refers to "the man who was crucified in Palestine because he introduced this new cult into the world." Regardless of the fact that this is NOT AN EYEWITNESS ACCOUNT BUT WRITTEN 120 YEARS AFTER THE SUPPOSED DEATH OF JESUS, nowhere in any of his writings does Lucian mention the man's name, or the cult he brought into the world. This is a SPECIAL PLEADING argument by Christians, we are too ASSUME he is talking

Meaning if you have now reached the lowest point. You're about to lose your job. You have bills to pay but no income now. You just had your heart broken in the worst way possible. You have absolutely no friends and no support from anyone. Why live if there is no love or happiness? In this worst case scenario; will God forgive suicide and not send your soul to Hell?

Is someone now days ask if you are a Christions, then they do not ask what your beliefs are. The next question is what church do you go to. More then 80% of the people I talk to save they are a Christian. The bible says: narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it. (Matthew 7:14)
How is this possible if everyone says they are a Christian. The bible says only a few are Christians. When witnessing to others we should ask them how do you know you are really a Christian? Even if they go to the right church this does not mean they are saved. There are alot of false converts.

I mean, without bitter experiences to 'bolster' inner reasonings, how can one make such an important decision?
I don't mean the rote reasoning, that he/she tells everyone else, I mean the one that's brewing underground.

What, if any other reason is there?

There's gotta be one. Every religion, sect, cult, and kissin' cousins social group insists that they and only they have the true path to salvation.

So c'mon, y'all, I've been out in on the cold long enough now. I'll do anything that doesn't involve -- um -- gimme a minute, I'm thinking....

Ok, so there's no bottle. But there is a message :) I need to get my lazy butt off the computer and clean up real nice for tomorrow. Especially because my daughter is coming over - YAY!!! I don't know how long it's gonna take or whether I'll be online again tonight, so I want to send this message now.

I hope that all of you have a very happy and SAFE Independence Day!! Please be especially careful if there are kids around and you have fireworks, and please don't let anyone drive drunk! I hope you all enjoy the holiday :)

It is known that homosexuality is common in herding animals. Also consider the fact that there are 1,500 animal species that practice homosexuality.

The authors of the bible were in herding tribes. So isn't it safe to say they were practicing what they see every day - gods own creation?

Don't believe me? Read the article here. Or google "homosexuality in animals" if you are afraid to click a link. http://www.health.am/sex/more/1500-animal-species-homosexuality/
