Religion & Spirituality - 9 November 2007

I had an accident when in my mouth, throat and assophgus wa burned and I also experienced temporary memory loss.. A few day safter the accident and a few days before the beautiful near death experience, my ability to do mudras began.

Mudras as discribed in the dictionary" probably untimately from Akkadian musari,object bearing royal inscription."..In the Buddhism Dictionary,"A symbolic gesture of the hands or body communicating . specific meaning..From the earliest artistic represetations onwards.'"

I had never heard of mudras before my near death experience. I was in the hospital when a mysterious stranger said to me," Oh, you are doing the ancient sign language, Mudra!"

I have lived with terrible back pain for the past 13 years, recently adding to that pain when through a fall that ended in a facuture, I had surgery yesterday. I

HELP ME UNDERSTAND WHAT HAS HAPPENED AND WHY. I pray that I will find my path in which I can best serve GOD!

If Jesus is still alive what sect of Christianity does he subscribe to? I would have thought he was an Ebionite ( the poor ones) as this was the sect founded by his family. His brother James and the apostle Peter were heads of this church. Ebionites did not believe in the divinity of Jesus or his resurrection ( for good reasons as this group witnessed the death, burial of Jesus, and the internment of his bones in an ossary after his flesh had rotted away). They were persecuted out of existence by Jews and followers of the Pauline mystery cult varieties of Christianity at about 135CE during the turmoil of the Bar Kochba ( the Jewish Messiah recognized as such by the head Rabbi of the times ) revolt.

They read the bible but they twist the meaning to support their arguments against anything. They quote scripture out of context. They claim to be chirstians but act differently. And they like damning people to hell.

muslim girl claiming discriminantion as not allowed to wear headscarf for hairdressing job


Ok lets play with this... how bout she can persue her case only when every muslim countiry stops discrimination against gays, lesbians and single unmarried couples and sexaully active single people.

Stops discriminataion against those who leave islam

Stops discrimination by brother and fathers and husbands inregards to who their daughters/sisters hang out with and date, not letting them date and even travel around freely unchaparoned.

How about the entire islamic worl stops any discrimination agains non virgin female teangers

And discrimination in the islamic world against playboy models, porn stars, pole dancers etc.

And any discrmination against guys and girls who are single and want to hang out as mates in the islamic world.
Discrimintaion against gay pride events.

And look at her hypocarcy where her head

what is prophecy? an expected natural occurance.
how is the bible used? Beginning with the catholic church... the bible is plans to defeat prophecy.. every act of murder, war and violence is a plan to destroy those who are meant to play a role in prophecy...

Ex: the prophecy of Jesus... the man is meant in his 40's to bring to the earth information that would destroy religion.... that is why his execution is planned before he reaches 40.... at one time he was prophecied of being crusified at 33 that age is now 36 meaning they have a hard time to destroy the prophecy... also religion is the sin that he would die for... that is why the religious preach it...

EVE... this is an extention of the same Jesus prophecy... the woman knowing good and evil.. who would give the man, now refered to as Adam, the information that would destroy the religions of the world... that is why the CHURCH condemns her.

You hear all this stuff about how bad Hell is.

Lately, I've been really negative, and I'm sorry for that.

But today, a friend asked me to brainstorm as many good aspects I can, about EVERYTHING.

It's going great, but I'm having a little trouble with Hell.

So far, I've got:
1) Cool people are there
2) Can't be as bad as Yahell!
3) I don't have to worry about getting cold
4) The heat will give me rosy cheeks WITHOUT blush!
5) Hot guys--literally :)
6) I won't have to worry about being afraid of heights, like in Heaven


What else can you think of, to add to my list?

Without actually using the contents of the Bible or any other sources based on the Bible, prove to me that the Bible is true.

I don't want anyone answering who will say that they can't, that's not what I asked. If you do, I'll simply delete this question and re-post it.

Jehovah's Witnesses cannot deny the fact that the Bible states one failed prophecy only will make one a false prophet. The Watchtower Governing Body have "sincerely" predicted Armageddon and the 2nd coming of Christ but failed many times. Moses' writings stated,

"If what a prophet proclaims in the name of the LORD does not take place or come true, that is a message the LORD has not spoken. That prophet has spoken presumptuously. Do not be afraid of him." (Dt. 18:22)

Are they a false prophet because of this criteria?

themselves? couldn't that mean they were homosexuals? And perhaps Mary Magdalene was the "beard" in the movie The Da Vinchi code? And that could mean that the whole nation of Israel only had 144000 homosexuals? And were stronger physically then normal families cause two men could beat a man and woman, normally. Thus through use of force, the homosexuals gave themselves the leading roles in Israel? And were called to stand with Jesus, iguess as stated in the bible?
Holywood or Bollywood should make a movie about that. since they allow Homosexual shows.

which traditional catholics are in the right? is it the 1) trads that believe you need to be in good standing with the church, such as the FSSP and Institute of Christ the King, 2) trads that believe you can't compromise with the novus ordo mass and the new theology, such as the SSPX, 3) the sedevacantists who believe that there has not been a valid pope since Pius XII, or 4) the conclavists who believe there has not been a valid pope since Pius XII and elect their own pope. which traditional catholic is in the right?

We seem to have escaped what ought to have been a hoard of excess self-proclaimed prophets of God wondering around today and I'm wondering why we don't ?

I can only "guess-timate" the correct percentage of prophets per hundred thousand populous that were on the loose in the Biblical era, but if that number was only one-tenth per hundred thousand we ought to have a predictable number of them hanging around... like one for every small city and two or three for every medium to large sized present day city.... But, where the heck are they ?

want to start tithing. But I don't go to church. is it the same if I give the 10% of my income to charity like children with cancer or other people in need instead of giving it to my local church?
Can I split the tithe and give to more than just one charity?
