my friend just sent me a petition for the abolishment of all faith schools and to stop the teachings of creationism and other religious mythology in all UK schools. This got us on to an interesting discussion in that there is no evidence in anything religious so how can they teach it as fact?

What is your opinion, should religion be taught in schools? or kept seperate?.

Please note this is not to say we should ban all religions but just not have lessons dedicated to it in schools.

It's the Garden State, even though I don't think the garden of eden was there, i know that Bruce Springsteen comes from there, so God, even though I can hardly see the beauty thru the smog, I just can't believe you didn't allow me to be from the holy land that is known as "New Jersey"?

The Holy Spirit is God living inside of me, given to me by the Lord. Jesus said in John 14:26 "He will teach you all things". The "He" here isn't masculine nor feminine. I think because it is referenced as "He" people mistake it as a being. It is a spirit; a ghost. It is Jesus's ghost left for us.

I was raised fairly religious, yet as I get older I find more non-mystical explanations for things in the world....for example, the belief in Karma, I came to realize that Karma is probably not some invisible force that comes back to haunt people, but that peoples own actions will eventually catch up to them.....I am finding more and more "secular" and non-religious explanations for everything and I am not even trying to....I am less of a "believer" now than I ever was....now I think "creation" is the silliest mythical story ever!
In a way I am torn on the inside, I want to believe in a God and believe in invisible forces beyond our control, just because it makes our purpose so much easier to grasp, when in reality I think our purpose is even more unknown...and I don't want to pretend to have the answers and live my life doubting everything......

My question is basically how do I find a balance in this, I am torn between my religious upbringing and my secular outlook on life?

Are you:

Pacifist?

A believer in Augustine's Just War theory?

Something else?

I am interested in the numbers of people in each group.

I really think the super religious people are evil deep down. They go to church all the time to try to block out the evilness looming in thier hearts. Then they try to push it on others...seriously can't you just worship what you want to and leave everybody else alone?

I got mine at Christians Say So, University!
Since they expect us to know all things scientific, and everything about evolution!
Do you find knowing it all, about everything, as tiring as I do?

I have read in YA numerous LDS haters that accuse our church for trying to cover up the MMM. I thought this was interesting. I didn't even know about it until my son studied it in 8th grade history.

I had a muslim try to quote John chapter 8 where Jesus told the mob holding the adulterous woman that whoever is without sin was to throw the first stone. His argument was that because Jesus didn't throw any stone he deduced that Jesus therefore was sinful. Has anyone else been bothered by this guy ?

I've had strong intuitive feelings for quite a while, a friend asked me what I thought would happen in a situation with her and her a guy and I told her he would contact her around his birthday, with a witty message most likely by the weekend. He did call her in fact. She called me and was amazed.

We were also in his neighborhood one day and I told her, you're going to see him. He was sitting on his porch.

Am I just making lucky guesses or is this intuition? I am freaked out
