Both theists and atheists say insulting things about agnostics. Why is that?

Here's my serious question on the night. I'm off to bed. Details in the morning if anyone prompts them.

Hugs to all!

It is the Eurcharist, ie. the holy communion which the priest , prayed over that ordinary looking wafer and by God's power turn them into holy communion. Its more than just a spiritual food to nourish baptised Catholics' soul in their journey towards God.

Its the most treasured in the Catholic Church as its the most visible form of supreme Gift from heaven and its the precious body and blood of our beloved Christ Himself.

And of all, its called holy communion, because when received in state of grace and without mortal sins, its a holy 'communion' with Christ Himself as we ate his body and blood.

I know its sound ridiculous but in the bible it stated that alot of his followers left after hearing that as they couldn't accept what Christ said : to eat his body and drink his blood. He could have stopped them but he let them go, as he can't give in as its a fact. And the Catholic Church still uphold it.

Duet 13, 1-3
"Phrophets or intepreters of dreams may promise a miracle or a wonder, In order to lead you warship and serve gods that you have not warshipped before. Even if what they promises comes true, do not pay any attention to them." ( Here is the really crappy excuse to only appreciated god even with all the evil and crime god has done) "The lord your god is using them to test you, to see if you love the lord with all your heart."

You Christians say that God only knows our future but doesn't make our choices. And you thus throw in the word foreknowlege in place of predestination. But the problem with this argument is that God was the one who created us! Therefore it is not only foreknowlege, but also predestination! God created our whole body, including our brains! And what do we use to make decisions? Our brains of course! God already has recorded our life in a book before we were born! God was the one who put us in the environment we were brought up in! What is it that determines our thoughts and thus decisions? The combination of our brains and environment...both of which God provided for us! And how do you christians not call this predestination?

...spooky, irrational Biblical "GobbleDeeGook..."? (and I'm NOT talking about ethically and morally wise ideas on "good" human behavior...WE came up with THAT stuff on our own...) What I'm talking about are the fanciful, ridiculous "interpretations" of "natural disasters," and the extremes of "courageous" human behavior in the face of certain death...?
(and the fact that they were ancient savages without a clue as to the "nature" of Planet Earth...?)

christians in the middle east?
Yah we have christians in the middle east, Christianity was born here and Moses, Abraham, jesus all lived here so we still exist in Afghanistan,Iraq,Iran, e.t.c but the #s are small and its dangerous. I was born in America but i've only been to an American church about 2 times, I've only been to our orthodox afghan churches here so I dont know what other Americans think or know about us christians in the middle east. I assume most christian conservatives are pro war and so are most Christian afghans that I know.

The Angelic Guards punish them. They are the watchers & law keepers of Guardian Angels. They exist within the spiritual realm but their eyes can see what happens in all 3 realms: Earth, Spiritual, & the void. Keep in mind that Guardian Angels can't comprehend the overwhelming instability of human emotions and senses on earth. How do you think Guardian Angels are punished for doing wrong? This is not in the Bible, but it is fact, if you know and evaluate & investigate Bibical Theology.

I was wondering if anyone here is a Unitarian Universalist or has at least heard of Unitarian Universalism? I am a UU, and it is sometimes hard to find others who are also UUs.

‘There is no such thing as a ‘holy’ war. There never was and there never will be. I have given no one the right to kill (or murder, as you neo-coms have mis-translated it) in My Name or in Anybody’s Name. Is this clear enough?’

I crunched all the numbers from the cumorah project, and came up with a total of 32.7% of the church members that are active. (data from 2006) This makes a grand total of 4,039,096 active members. Does that sound about right?

If anyone is interested, I do have a spreadsheet with all the numbers, and it took quite some time to compile all the data. Just tell me and I can hook you up with the data. I tried to be as accurate as possible.

Please consider these quotes from the Watchtower Magazine that verify what I am saying:

"All who want to understand the Bible should appreciate that the "greatly diversified wisdom of God" can become known only through Jehovah's channel of communication, the faithful and discreet slave." (The Watchtower; 10/1/1994; p. 8.)

"Thus the Bible is an organizational book and belongs to the Christian congregation as an organization, not to individuals, regardless of how sincerely they may believe that they can interpret the Bible." The Watchtower, Oct. 1, 1967. p. 587.

In short, you are led by what the Watchtower says the Bible says. But if the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society is from God, then...

Why has it made false prophecies?
Why has it altered the translation of the Bible?
Why does the Watchtower say you will fall into apostasy if you read the Bible without the Watchtower?
Why are you not allowed to examine your own organization and its problems?
Why does it tell you what to think and do?

Thats kinda how I feel nowadays... with so many factions fighting with eachother and taking things to the extreme. Thats what happens when people have too much power in religion. Who agrees?

What do you "really"believe concerning death?Do you think that's it, we just live for a short time and then die, or do you think it is possible that we could continue to live in another form of existence,or something else? I "really" do want to know.Thanks.
