if you are true, we muslims are taught to always defend, and never evoke other people. Why do you always say that we are wrong? can't we just live peacefully??

I know some people believe we should baptize in Jesus' name alone. That baptizing in the Name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost is wrong. What about Matthew 28:19? Didn't Jesus Himself teach to baptize in all 3?

Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:

Why are there no arguments about Thanksgiving?

Could it be because, no matter what other differences of opinion we may have, we all like to eat?

I am going to make my own... finally. I have a couple of sets, but like with most things of this nature, I prefer to make my own to make them more personal to me (rather than deal with stones or those annoying plastic "runes"). Which wood is better to use to make them? Oak? Ash? Cedar? And do you apply anything to them, such as polyurethane? I would rather NOT use any chemicals, but I would like them to last a while.

I've heard people of different faiths say that their faith has transformed their life and changed them for the better. How has Paganism transformed you and your life? And which form of Paganism do you practice and for how long?

By refusing to accept anything but the Bible as the revelation of God, and declaring you can't be saved unless you believe in the Bible alone, are fundamentalist sola scriptura adherants actually turning the Bible into an Idol?

It seems that way to me. How often do we hear these people say 'the answer is in the Bible', or 'turn to the bible' instead of 'turn to God' and 'the answer is Christ'.

http://www.nvic.org/PressReleases/pr62706gardasil.htm

" The National Vaccine Information Center (NVIC) is calling on the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) to just say "no" on June 29 to recommending "universal use" of Merck's Gardasil vaccine in all pre-adolescent girls. NVIC maintains that Merck's clinical trials did not prove the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine designed to prevent cervical cancer and genital warts is safe to give to young girls"

I was in this section last year stating these things but all I did was get a bunch of people attacking me, saying I was looney and lo and behold my word was true all along. lol.

What are your thoughts on this? Have you gotten the vaccination or has your child? My doc tried to get me to take it but I refused. Good thing I did that...

Schools across the country hang Christmas, Kwanza and Hanukkah decorations each year. We have Halloween parties, Easter Bunnies and Santa Clause. Every student is expected to join in carols, and holiday plays.

This Ramadan season, a Muslim PTA member, whose job it is to hang the decorations each year, hung Ramadan lights at her children's elementary shool (that has 30% muslim students), creating outrage as parents dressed in red white and blue protested the display.

If such a discriminating act were done against Jews, it would be anti - semitic. If against Blacks, the Rainbow Coalition would be there. Why is it not seen as bigoted to discriminate against American Muslims?

I think all Holidays should be represented, or leave them ALL at HOME.

What do you think??

That sees many new prophets? How come no other belief has them or recognizes them as such?

Why do Atheists say that their is no God, and substitute the name God for Gawd? They both sound the same! The Bible says that the fool hath said in his heart, their is no God! I am not calling anyone fools. If you think I am calling you a fool, that is guilt. RYANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

I want to become a Catholic Priest, Im graduating high school next year. I dont have a ton of money, around 20,000 from my parents. Which I thought was a lot until I looked into the prices of college, and majoring in Religous Studies at IU or IUPUI would be around 25000-30000. And on top of that, Id have to pay for 4 years at seminary school.

If I use my college fund and worked and paid the rest off along the way when Im getting my BA, could I get a student loan for seminary school and pay that off once Im in my vocation?

Hi All!

I'm looking for a simple Samhain ritual for this year. Every year I seem to always have work or class getting in the way of performing anything. Usually has ended up in the scenario of me sitting/standing quitely in the mists of studying students or arguing customers and attempting a silent prayer to the God and Goddess for a few brief moments.
But this year I actually have cleared my schedule on Samhain!! Can someone help, please? I wrote something myself... but I'd like some input from others too.
Thanks in advance!!!

Blessed Be
