Tammy Faye Baker passed away Saturday. While she was on the "other team" I personally found her to be sincere in her faith and an interesting person.
I know the urge to jump up and cheer may be in you. I ask you don't. Death is a time of respect as she returns to the mothers loving arms to return again, perhaps to correct some of the wrongs she helped in doing.
When we like someone, we can name 20 things good about them. When we hate them we only focus on the one or two things that we color them with. All people are more than these one or two things. They each see the moon in its phases, the tides on the shore, The sun in the sky and the rain on our faces. They each dance with abandonment and cry in sorrow. They are each loved by some and despised by some. We are each human and children of the Lord and Lady. We each have our shining beauty and dark secrets. You (and I) don't like some of the things she did, but show love in your heart and ask the Lord and Lady to welcome here home, educate her and send her back. Who knows, she may be the child in your circle next year!
Lastly, who and how we show our dislike for someone says more than something about that person, but something about ourselves. Think about your actions. Hate brings nothing, Love brings peace.
Be at peace

Why will some Christians watch Harry Potter, eat Thai food under a Buddha statue, go to a meditation retreat, read their horoscope, donate to a Muslim charity, get drunk and get laid at a frat party, get a tatoo of an om symbol, ignore homeless people asking for food and shelter, and get their hair styled by a gay barber...

...but don't ask them if they want to go to a gay bar with you... because that's such a sin and they can't have fun watching people sin...

(it's not like people are having sex at the bar - and the drag shows and music are more fun than you'd have at most places.)

I don't really even spend a lot of time at bars, but I think it's just really strange that it's such a no-no for people... Even murder is better in some situations...

It makes me think that Christianity is 90% popularity contest. 10% spirituality.

My sister has made my brother the God father of her baby, however he's never been baptized or anything like that... the only time he was ever in a church has been for funerals and my sister's wedding. I always thought that someone had to be catholic to be a god parent.

They always seem to have 2 sides to every scenario and use whichever suits them best at the time. Even the Bible with its vagueness allows for much interpretation which suits Christians just fine. If allows for justification in anything and everything they do. God is their scapegoat. Personally, I take responsibility for my own actions as an organism capable of independant thought. Saying things like "Gods will" allows for complacency. It also allows Christians to not take ownership of their actions as they feel compelled in their thoughts and actions. I find this truly bizarre and unsettling.

Can you separate your hatred for another’s point of view from the person? Can you love the person without agreeing to all his/her philosophies or do you hate all who disagree with you?

who are dying through bombs, come on Muslims join us against this atrocity and we can bring an end to the slaughter of innocents by evil men , also as Muslims target Muslims with terorism is this not evidence there is a problem within Islam about conflict resolution and that is the problem, What has Britain done to Pakistanis that they want to mass murder Britis people. Better to seek answers within your own belief system than constantly blame someone else for your own problems

"I believe everything happens for a reason."

"I'll leave it in the hands of the almighty."

"What comes around goes around."

"If I pray hard enough, _____ will answer my prayer."

"I'll check my horoscope."

Why do people cling to the idea that there are unseen mystical forces at work in their lives? I honestly don't get it. I find the idea of surrendering control to something no one can prove, or to an incomprehensible force, or to the concept of fortune/luck/chance, far more frightening than the alternative - that we alone are responsible for what happens to each other, and this world. Magic is fine for entertainment, but after the show, you know it was all an act.

If you ask me, they're all just elaborate rationalizations to avoid the cold, hard, unpleasant realities of life.

Now watch, some clever person will say that god is using this forum and my atheist fingers to deliver his messages to people.

This is the question I posted:
Inter-Faith Series, Islam: Please justify this Sura?

“Whoever changes his Islamic religion, then kill him.” – Sura 10,94

Was it because there was no answer from the Muslim Community for more than 20 minutes?
