Religion & Spirituality - 6 November 2007

God has spoken to me & has told me the path I need to take. I have been fighting this for quite some time now, but I'm ready to become a woman.

Yes, God has told me I need to become a woman. I have felt this way for a long time, even before God spoke to me. How do I tell my wife & kids that this is what God wants of me & what I have been feeling for a long time.

Will I go to Hell if I don't listen to God's words? I want to please Him.

I read two books by an athiest somalian author who was muslim until her early twenties. She explained what she and thousands of other women/girls like her went through in somalia, kenya, ethiopia, new holland etc as she grew up. She suffered abuse (physical, mental, verbal) torture, genital mutilation, no food, no shelter, loss of family, disease etc etc...now her and her family like thousands of other muslims suffer like this everyday so I want to know for these people who are putting all their faith in god. Why do they suffer like this? Some people bring bad fortune on to themselves but others are good people, wouldn't they be saved here and now rather than suffering on earth for their whole lives only to go to heaven which only possibly may or may not exist??

I am muslim and believe in god also but dont understand and wish someone could explain it to me. These series of books are true stories from the authors own eyes she is now working for a humanitarian cause to help these ppl!

show some respect...thank you.

Speak to me about what it means to 'break someones spirit'. Is this possible? What does it look like?
Is this like chaining a dog for so long that he becomes vicious? Or is it like beating a dog into submission?
Does this have anything to do with what's loosely referred to as spiritual warfare... or psychological warfare? Is breaking someones spirit...the goal of this type of relationship? For what?
Are people using information as weapons and the psyche as a battleground? What, which, where, when, why, how, who?
Are there psychological/spiritual equivalents to computer viruses? Highjacking? Hacking?
Spam? Spyware? Trojan?
Is causing someones 'system' to crash...the same as breaking their spirit? Is a 'broken spirit' the same thing as a state of insanity?

Once a spirit has been broken, be it human or otherwise...can it be made whole again?
Tell me...

How many of you are telling people here they are going to burn in hell. I see this in alot of QAs from nonChristian posters that this is told to them all the time on here. I think I miss it when it happens, but Im sure it happens from time to time. So, do you do this and if so, why? Thanks :)

Why?

I Know Promoting Religion Is A Violation Of The Constitution ...

But We Still Promote Religion By Saying The

Pleadge Of Alligence

"One Nation Under God"

That's Promoting Christianity.

What's The Argument?
The Pro And Con?

The only logical reason I can come up with is that God does not exist.

Before you shoot me down, take a monent and think think of this rationaly and intelligently (not because you have blindly believed all your life).

God shows up and "proves" to all mankind that he is real that would instantly brings peace on earth and cause a fantastic transformation of most people on earth for the better I might add...

Yet God in his mighty power and despite the fact he apparently want us all to be better, remains a mystery...

How can u win an argument when someone says you must believe blindly (have FAITH) because this religious person (human being) tells you to??? Or this old ferry tale book (bible) says...

As Napoleon once said "Religions were "invented" so the poor people would not kill the rich ones for their money"

Religions and Gods are the greatest mass controlling legends ever invented!!

What do you think?

Rev 10:5 And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven,
Rev 10:6 And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer:
Rev 10:7 But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.

Are you having a lovers quarell with the almighty GOD? Does it breed faith? "Unfath"?

Do you argue with the living God? Didn't men of faith do that in the Bible?

Who are we to question God?!? Is it forbidden to ask "Why?"???

Do you think the two are linked? Sometimes I feel an incredible wave of homesickness while I'm walking past some random seemingly inconsequential spot or I'll feel deja vu for no reason. This leads me to at least ponder the existance of reincarnation.

I feel very strongly about about a biased view that people have that certain things cannot change. Please hear me out on this. I may cause a little stir but I cannot stand hearing things like this.

EXAMPLE: A man is sexually abused and beaten as a young boy for many years by family members. Lives in poverty. He has to cook his own meals, do his own laundry, and basically care for himself. He is sexually abused by other family members as he gets older. His father is an alcoholic. He starts to think the only way to get attention is through sexual contact with others. So he grows up thinking that he must have sex with other boys. This continues into adulthood and he ends up molesting and abusing boys just as he was.

Many people are quick to say this person must be locked up and thrown away forever. I have a sensitive place in my heart for people such as this and want to provide help for them to rehabilitate their lives. What they did as an adult is wrong but I believe they can chan

All sins are equal in God's eyes. We just put our own weight on them. All are mistakes, and all take the same sincere repentance.

Any scripture on this?

When two people marry it is customary for the pastor to say "Whom God has joined together.....". I was wondering for those who got married and did not believe in God, did the pastor or Justice of the Peace include these words in your ceremony? If so, how did it make you feel?
