A little lesson on Egyptian deities:

In the early days,when gods walked the earth
Ra (God of creation,light) fought the evil demon Apep(Serpent).
In this battle,Ra was injured and would have died if it wasn't for his companion,Seth(God of Evil,darkness).
Together,Seth and Ra fought this evil from a darker age,and with much struggle,managed to banish him in the world he came from...

Now,please answer the quesion:

-Is light better than darkness ?
-Is darkness better than light ?

Believers, do you know just how amazing it is to be justified in the eyes of God? The simplest definition of justification is "just as if you had not sinned." But it runs deeper than that. We were justified even when there was no just cause to do so. When God saved us, He did so without a reason to. We did not deserve it, and He had no reason to do so for we had rejected God. But He sent His son to the earth to live a perfect life, and then be sacraficed and be the ultimate sacrafice. "That being justified by His grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life." Believers do you know that you will stand justified before God?

how come Yahoo doesn't offer this section? Maybe if they did, they would let believers ask questions "HERE" of people who are "seeking answers from those with faith."
just a thought.

And if they do, doesn't that mean that animals have souls? And if you think that animals don't have emotions: it's very easy to differentiate between an angry dog and a dog who's being playful.

Some have answered my last by saying that they questioned what they hear everyday. But do they question their faith? If not WHY NOT? Can one be selective in what to question? Or should one question everything?

They may be calling upon Jesus/God in order to help others? Wouldn't that be okay? I agree there can be charlatans...but there can be truly good other psychics? Agree?

I'm wondering about Christians and sexiness. Is it an appearance women (and men?) should feel free to adopt? That is, is it okay for a woman to go beyond making herself look good/attractive and deliberately make herself look sexy? Would it make a difference if she is engaged/married or not?

Define "sexy" any way you want.

My dad said to me once, "God is like Santa, it's ok to believe untill your 8 or 9, but after that it's time to grow up."

I'm not trying to make light of caution.

Nor am I trying to marginalize anyone's experience.

But I've only recently discovered that my life-long beliefs fit within the Pagan paradigm.

Being single, I have a natural curiosity with respect to insights regarding dating and relationships involving Pagan women.

Perhaps I've handled this poorly, if so, my apologies. Disrespect was never on my mind.

But if I were to date a Christian woman I'd have a pretty good idea what the paramters would be.

I know almost nothing about Pagan women.

So forgive me if I'm clumsy in learning more. I tend to be direct (and playful, when possible).

Christians give the glory to God,
Atheists check google.

I think it would be a good bumper sticker.

He talked with spirits, He healed the sick, He prayed, He meditated, He loved. For goodness sake, shouldn't we emulate this behavior and tap the source of Goodness for all humanity?

Some seem to label it virtuous. Is it really? Should you believe anything you hear? Would that make you a saint? Does one need recognition from one´s neighbors on who believes the most without proof?
Does that sound reasonable to you?
Do you want to just follow the crowd because everybody else does it?
Can you even justify that to yourself in your own brain?

...or gods?
Christians believe that Jesus is the only God and that He is the physical presence of the Trinity whilst God the Father is the mind of God and God the Holy Ghost is the Spirit of God.

This is no different than people. We all have a body, mind, and spirit. Do Mormons think that our body, mind, and spirit are three different people? Do they think that God's Body, Mind, and Spirit are three different people? When Christ founded the Roman Catholic Church He knew what He was talking about but when Joseph Smith Jr. started the Mormon church recently in the nineteenth century he clearly didn't look at all angles.

I am a catholic and my father has always been an atheist, which I respect a lot. He has always been a real caring father, respectful and always wanting to help people. I am very happy he is my father and if I was to be born again, I wished he was my parent again.

What do you think is the purpose of people like him in this world? What do you think is going to happen with him after he dies?

Please..no atheists answering this question :)

Thanks for your opinion

I went to Catholic school for 10 years and I really don't understand this. A few months ago I asked this question and I almost got suspended for "questioning christian teachings.'
