Religion & Spirituality - 2 November 2007

What is your religious background? I mean, did you grow up Christian? Are you the same denomination? Were you raised to believe in the rapture? If not, how did you come upon this belief? Did you believe it right away or over time?

... Anubis? Is it because when he weighs your heart of against the feather of Ma'at, you will be found to be full of sin?

Is it because his keen canine nose will smell out your impurities and deny you access to the realm of the dead?

Admit it, you hate him because you feel unable to meet his demanding standards.

Revelation 14
10The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:
11And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.

Praise Allah for a man like Muhammad! What do you think Muhammad would do today if he saw all the Muslims divided?

See attached story.

Frankly, they deserve everything they get what with the way they go about spreading their message of hate.

I do. I believe there have been other instances, too, that were not recorded in the Bible.

See Exodus 33:11 - http://scriptures.lds.org/en/ex/33/11#11

Do you know of any other face to face encounters with God, recorded in the Bible or other holy writ?

Do you suppose the reasons that atheists hate Christians and the Christian god is because of the rather negative attitude of Christians toward atheists.

Would you find it easy to love someone that was constantly telling you if you do not believe a I do you will burn in eternal fire after you die and could you love a god that could punish anyone that way.

It seems that Moses believed in such a god. He called him yaway or Ya. This God was a vengeful god not unlike the Egyptian god of the time Ra.

Another great prophet of a later time taught about a God of love. The teacher was called eYshua (name meaning God with us) This teacher did not mention eternal burning anything but talked of love and said God was the spirit of love.

Atheists would you like this God better or do you just hate God?

Maybe there is a God? Maybe there isn't a God?

Maybe Muhammad was right? Maybe Jesus was right?

Maybe Jews are still right? Maybe you are worshiping Shiva?

and if they continue to be abusive to their children
even after the child is grown
should the child still associate with them
if the abuse is to the extent that it is debilitating?

and shouldnt a parent accept/acknowledge show remorse at some point for all the abuse they did to their chidren?
im talking about severe abuse,not anything minor??

And how would that work if the Muslim, the Sikh, the Catholic, and the Protestant were having a right old punch up.
And at the same time Prince Charles is walking past, what religion would he feel obliged to help. Name the one you think he would help.

Do they try to put themselves on the same level as God, Who was manifest in the flesh so that He could become the Perfect Sacrifice for our sins?

did he release all the hundreds of thousands of animals on this "island", (which is what a mountain sticking out of the water is), or did he keep them locked up in the boat until the water "receded" back to it's normal level? I can just imagine all these animals trapped on a mountain top, completely surrounded by water, trampling all over each other, with nothing to eat, or trying to get back into the boat to find a few remaining morsels of food. It is not a pretty thing to imagine.

How can you live knowing that you have no purpose, because there can be no purpose in chance, right? Or it wouldnt be chance, would it? How can you live your life believing that it has no purpose?

I just noticed a big change in my Christian friend (I am Christian as well) We have an annual night of Praise and Worship with at least 5 different churches and before that we have a North Korean missionary come to the church to speak to us about her experiences. He was originally planning to go then all of a sudden he calls these things "gay", "retarded", "ill go if you bring your football", and "I wanted to go hangout with my friends instead of this lame thing, im not go ing".
I was SHOCKED at his reaction. What happened to him? He wasn't a very strong Christian originally, but he wasn't weak either. I need help getting through to him.... When I asked him why he thought it was stupid he said i was acting like socrates and if i knew that he died because he questioned things too much. What the hell happened to him? It was so sudden.
Thanks in advance

The meanness and hatefuness are starting to get to me. If it isn't Atheists and their mocking our Lord it's the Pagan's already claiming we stole christmas from them! I love the Lord with all of my heart but sometimes it just gets so bad that I just want to stay away from this site for a day or two.


I know this site is open for everybody, I haven't said that you people don't have a right to say what ever you want to say. I am just asking other Christians if they ever want to stay away for a day or two.

If God existed he would have revealed Himself SIMULTANEOUSLY, IN ALL LANGUAGES, TO ALL ETHNIC GROUPS.
Instead he's just the invention of different ethnic groups....
