Religion & Spirituality - 24 September 2007

how many of you are highly religous? How many of you are ethical shoppers or does cost win over ethics.

I guess what I'm trying to say is it about time that we stopped trying to raise money to feed the world and started boycoting products from certain countries in hopes that it will lead to better work conditions and pay? So that they may get themselves out of poverty.

I was pondering this abstractly...what do you think of the following? How would you improve it? What do you do?

Observe: be mindful of what you do and think back over the past day, week or year to learn from your past what went good and why.

Identify: for the things which went not so good, figure out the mistakes you made, identify the errors.

Modify: plan to do things differently in similar situations in future.

Write: write down a 'rule' to guide you away from repeating the mistake. The rule may not be always followed, but you are aware of it.

Remember: periodically review your rules so that you do not forget them!

Jesus, Muhammad and Buddha.

Let's guage what you think of them by having you form an imaginary quote like;

Jesus said "Peace and love"
or
Buddha said "Buy Wilkinson Sword razors".

Go for it.

These scandals may keep many people from getting saved ! Because they think all Christians are like them (which they're not).

Do you think suicide deserves hell?

What circumstances are okay for suicide... like in the Pope's case he was near death...?

I am a Christian (Conservative type), but I haven't been able to grasp on to the Spiritual lately. I seem to have lost that wonderful feeling of God being with me. Our family has been through severe trials lately, and we are just beginning to recover. Can somebody help me to feel close to God again?

DID THE TEN PLAGUES REALLY HAPPEN?
"There is virtually NO historical evidence to support the biblical story of the ten plagues and the Israelite`s escape from slavery in Egypt. Indeed, there is virtually no histrocial evidence that there were ever large numbers of Israelites in Egypt. The biblical description of 600,000 Israelite men women and children leaving Egypt and wandering in the desert under the leadership of Moses - as well as defying such non-devine considerations as how they might have survived in one of the most inhospitable regions on Earth -seems to have escaped the attentions of ancient record-makers altogether."
EQUINOX - THE TEN PLAGUES OF EGYPT.
**Now wait for claims that they had the help of a fictitious `god` and that will prove that religious people will invent anything to uphold the lies in the bible with no absolute and provable facts.
*Were they supposed to have been wandering for 40 years or more? No bible quotes, hard facts only, please!

yet praises a capitalist society and encourages racism by forcing stereotypes and misrepresentation of racial groups? How do you combat those outside influences and stay steadfast AND not judge others for their racism although it feels like certain racial groups are being singled out??

On my earlier question regarding how faith is useful in your everyday lives, some of you said that you cannot imagine trying to live without faith in God, or that your life would be nothing without your faith.

If you would agree, can you give me some specific examples of how your life would change negatively if you did not have faith in God?

If most of the answerers to this question agree that their lives would be nothing without faith, does this prove the claim made by some atheists that most believers are weak, or need that "crutch" in order to live happily?

I submit my question to everyone respectfully.

Why then do Muslims teach that the Holy Book was given to him from heaven? Why is Mohammad actually mentioned in the Quran if he didn't write it himself?

Being raised catholic, I was told that I was to pray to Mary the mother of Jesus and to the saints because they had a bank of merits which is why they can intercede for us. But what about the merits of Jesus? Are we not saved through His merits alone? Is there such thing as creature merit?

You ever thing about why Jew’s circumcise the males?
What purpose do they do this for?
I heard it has to do with being clean or something.
But what if a parasite gets in your penis?
Isn’t that the purpose god made the foreskin in the first place?
Can’t Jews just wash it the right way, so they don’t have to cut anything that really does serve a purpose?
What is the Jewish version of why they do this anyway?
I'm sure God didn't make a mistake when he made us.

I dont think it should you may differ please share your views

I think that children are to open to brainwashing and it causes diiferances at schools

For those of you who think it should, read this example and give me your views

Bob grew up in care, say bobs parents were Christians and when he was fostered He was placed with muslims at the age of 3 and he learnt their teachings and followed their religion till at 9yr he went back home and was then made to revert back to christianity.

would this be right, is it brainwashing, should we not teach our children good moral lessons and save religion for when they are old enought to grasp the vast subject that many adults struggle to come to terms with?

Or is it more important for us to mold our children to follow our footsteps?

If children were left to grow up before finding their spiritual path would this promote a following of religion based on ones belief of the subject rather then what is forced up on them at a young age

If they say atheists will go to hell or are perverse or vile etc is that "defamatheism"? If they fear irreligion is that "atheophobia"?

Any suggestions?
