Religion & Spirituality - 11 September 2007

Brad Pitt if you're a guy, and Halle Barry if you're a girl star in this instant classic.
Scene one: Star in rumpled nightclothes and hair sticking up like Robert Smith or something, stumbling into the kitchen with sleep sealed eyes, fumbling for the coffee pot. Dangit,out of creamer!
Scene two: 1978 Ford Town&Country station wagon won't start again, comedy ensues as the Star tries to interpret what the dispatcher at the cab company is saying.
Scene three: Hysterical minor player, "The Boss" ask the Star into his office for a "Chat", uproarious fun follows the stark, riveting conversation about "Performance".
Scene four: While waiting in the unemployment line, the Star sees many of his/her former classmates on their way to their government jobs. Laughs abound as the Star tries to hide from said classmates.
Scene five: the Star gives a dollar to a homeless guy he/she meets on the street, knowing full well they will just run down to the liquor store and get a cold refreshing drink.

Millions if not billions of individuals have had spiritual experiences that are repeatable, wherein they have felt, seen, heard, etc. spiritual beings, yet your not seeing them yourself gives you cause to say that spiritual beings do not exist. Yet, no one has seen the center of Mars, yet you say for certain it exists. This does not seem logical. Non-proof of something by lack of experience in sensing it yourself. Explain?

Certain groups of Christians make me think of a film I saw once where a monkey reached into a jar for peanuts but couldn’t get his hand out. The monkey could have opened it’s hand and dumped out the peanuts but struggled for the duration of the film to get his fist out of the jar without dropping the peanuts.

The reason they make me think of this is that they try to save people as if their own salvation depends on it, so desperate that they become repulsive. No one would join such a group unless there were terrible misconceptions in their life to begin with. They are like the nerds of the Christian religion and they are to vocal and by manipulation have become tools of politicians that seek blind decisions.

Other Christians I have had the pleasure of meeting radiate the love of God in dignity and with grace. I want to be like these Christians.

What will it take to believe that the Shepherd will find the very last sheep?

When will we believe that all like sheep have gone astray?

When we will stop believing in our efforts to know God?

When will we believe in the justification of the ungodly?

Let's say your answer is yes. So, I'm sitting in my room with the lights on and I say, "God, if you exist, make the lights go off and then on again."

This action requires no effort at all from a being of infinite power and will have no effect on anyone. In other words, it's not like I'm saying, "God, if you exist, kill the guy who stole my girlfriend." Just a simple demonstration. Funny how it never ever ever happens.

P.S. If you're going to tell me that I already know God exists, save your breath and don't ever let the word "unbeliever" cross your lips or keyboard again.

I don't...I've never seen anything to tell me there is some big force directing positive and negative energy towards those who deserve it.

Do you believe in it and why?

Seriously, do you think that since I'm a Muslim that I'm a terrorist? Oh, come on now! The only thing I ever terrorise is an ice cream cone once in a while from McDonald's. Or my husband at, well, that's innappropriate. Anyway, you say not a single Muslim speaks out? This one does. And so do these leaders and average Muslim people. Still want to say we are silent??

If Jesus was crucified and died to pay the "full" penalty for our sin, why does this place called "purgatory" exist?
Jesus died to pay the penalty for all of our sins, and once they are forgiven, they are all forgiven (Colossians 1:14; Acts 10:43).

How is it that the definition of faith tells us otherwise? That there is no proof in faith. I mean if there is no proof, how does the truth part come in?

Is there a Mormon that can answer my question?

Does Mormon believe in fighting especially the US troops? Would they called it a sin or a blessing?

I am doing some research about Mitt Romney and whether he would be good but he appear to show 50/50 for the support on US troop. He stated that his son's choice "was his decision" regarding whether he want to volunteer to serve in the military.
