Religion & Spirituality - 12 November 2007

A religion is a faith
A faith is a belief
A belief is an opinion
An opinion is subjective
Something subjective is biased
Something biased is seldom right.

Newham is 25% Muslim 2nd highest in Britain and i dont think there is a reason to oppose the mosque
please dont teel saudi arabia to open church becase saudi arabia does not give freedom of religion but Britain give full freedom of religion so there should be no problem in openin a mosque
i m sure if it was a church then the government will have no problem and let it open.
is Britain going against freedom of religion which it gives
or is this also some sort of crusade

Why would you want to go to heaven.

'When we've been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We've no less days to sing God's praise,
Than when we first begun. '

It sounds pretty horrid to me, personally I'd rather spend an eternity in torturous pain.

You tell me to repent and save myself, that I'm sinning and will go to hell, but none of you seem to understand that if these places do exist I'd rather be in hell than heaven.

What's so great about heaven?

i just read a question about religions not allowing blood transfusions (the case was an accident that happened out of the blue)and some answers confused me. one parent said that his/her child had a bible conscience and wanted to live forever. well sorry but how does a 4 or 5 year old understand this? ( i mean really understand it,not just repeating whatever the parent told him) have these kids been told they will go to hell if they dont agree?

conditional responsibility for a child to show unconditional love for a God?even though the bible was written thousands of years ago where blood tranfusion was not known?

According to Kings 7:23, the circumference of a circle is diameter x 3 ("circular in shape, measuring ten cubits from rim to rim and five cubits high. It took a line of thirty cubits to measure around it").

But according to modern mathematics, the circumference of a circle is the diameter x PI which is (when rounded to 5 decimal places) 3.14159.

So does this mean that modern mathematics goes against the word of God? Or is it more a case that it was simplified to be easier to understand back then?

I wonder how much else was simplified.

Anyone know when making the Sign of the Cross became standard Christian ritual ?


(( If there's anyone who doesn't know, the Sign of the Cross is accomplished as the fingertips of one (usually right) hand,
touch (1) forehead [mind],
touch (2) chest [heart/body],
touch (3) left shoulder,
touch (4) right shoulder [soul/spirit],
and sometimes touch (5) lips.

"In the name of the (1) Father, and the (2) Son, and the (3) Holy (4) Spirit, (5) Amen." ))

Why does he punish harmless people, there are people that are homeless, that are struggly with AIDs, childern being molested by preists, ect. He sends people to Hell just for not believing in him, even if they are good people. He just doesn't seem like a nice person.
And don't answer with "God works in misterious ways" That's not a good answer.

Maybe the realisation won't happen today and maybe not tomorrow but soon and you'll possibly spend the rest of your life regretting your mistaken beliefs and the time you wasted on them.

Is masturbation a sin according to Hinduism?If it is,in which holy book is it mentioned so?

A) A complete super-sentient being has always been, with the power to create anything it so desires and maintain complete power over these creations. This being decided to create time, the universe, and man one week.

B) The universe, or at least its constituant parts have always been and simply cycle through different states of being through cause and effect.

Re 22:16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.

Now I know my religion and I know that it was Joseph who was the descendant of David and not Mary. For Jesus to be descended of David he would have to be Joseph's son but that goes against Christian mythology. The Bible itself proves Jesus was not a divine being. Even the Old Testament said this messiah would be a descendant of David but Jesus is said to be born of a virgin. If Jesus was not Joseph's son then Joseph's line ended and there could be no savior. But to say your Jesus was born not by a virgin but by someone who got pregnant before marriage would go against beliefs. so what say you to this?
