Religion & Spirituality - 17 November 2007

I can't seem to find my wedding ring or my digital camera? I was wondering if it is possible for a psychic to tell me where I might have misplaced them.

She was raped by Muslim men.
She was convicted by a Muslim judge, in a Muslim country according to Muslim law by the guardians of Islam's holiest shrine.

Does anyone know where I can find supported scriptures in the old testament that speak on the coming of Jesus Christ?

In Buddhism, for example, it is taught that one should not believe something because someone tells you it's true or to believe it, or that it make logical sense, that you must experience it and realize it is true and valid on your own merit and experience (the idea of three type of wisdom in the Right Wisdom part of the Eightfold Noble Path.)

Anyways, for those of any faith:

Can you truly follow a religion or beliefs system if you don't challenge the ideas and ask many questions and experience it's truth or lack-of for yourself?

This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard, especially when it comes to homosexuality.

It is similar to saying, "I love you but I hate your family, your house, your car, your clothes, your pets, the way you look, the way you smell, the way you click your teeth when you eat, etc.... but I love YOU so much."

I hate to quote a Black Eyed Peas song, but where is the love in that? It may be said with good intentions but it is the biggest load of crap ever. It is said as a way for some Christians to hide and justify their judgmental behavior at the same time.

I need to ask your forgiveness. I admit I have sinned by not treating you with love. I was so caught up in proving I was right that I forgot all about being righteous. Please forgive me.

I may occasionaly point out doctrinal differences, but I will endeavor not to be rude or proud. If I get out of line remind me of this commitment which I am making to you- but please be gentle as I am human too.

I am concerned for your souls- which is why I have become overzealous and way too overbearing and downright disrespectful. I sin, like we all do and I too find the need to repent far more often than I would like to admit to.

Again, I humbly seek your forgiveness. I would like to be able to have rational diologue from time to time- if you will trust me.

I want to know why every time I over come pain and grief, I end up being all sad over again*for no reason, or something really small & insignificant*, It takes me a while to be okay again, and something small gets me to be sad for a long time.
Am I depressed or too sensitive? Could I be a Empath, sensing peoples energies, that is why I am so sensitive?...

Hi. My world civilization teacher marked this answer wrong on my test and I would like to prove him wrong. He says that the "12 followers of Jesus Christ were called APOSTLES" but growing up in church and being a very strong Christian, I was always taught it was the 12 DISCIPLES. Please let me know if I am correct or if the teacher is correct.
*If you are too immature to answer this question or are going to put something stupid or something that is not relevant to the point, then PLEASE do not answer.

I am very confused about my religion right now, I used to be a Christian,but that's when I was 0-10 and I went to church with my parents and so on. But now that I'm older I don't go to church and I am questioning my religion -if I even have one. And I was thinking, why would God HATE homosexuals? Who started this? Or does it say it in the bible? I am not homosexual but I am friends with homosexual people.

At the council of Nicea in 325AD over 300 Catholic church leaders voted which gospels and missives would be canonized into Holy Scripture for the New Testament.The first vote was to exclude Revelation,not only because it contradicted Christ's teaching that the Kingdom of God would never come with signs (Luke 17:20,21)--but also the author was unknown-It was in a different language to the Gospel of John--& an obviously different writing style to John's Gospel--and transformed Christ from the Prince of Peace into a raving avenger.After the 2nd vote(and some skulduggery)--it scrapped in--This book has been responsible for suicidal doomsday cults-and perverted the Gospel Story.Perhaps it's time for the Catholic Church to admit their mistake!

We are well educated - everything we learn are fact's tested and proven with solid evidences. - hence only then we except it but how come when it come to religion things are not so - after all everyone knows tat just like everything else religion is man made ( GOD is there and he is always GOD - I meant religion ).

Example : communicating with god is very personal !! but why humans are killing each other over the style or which popular method one uses to coomunicate ( protestant Vs Catholics , Chia muslim Vs Sunni Muslim ) after all they are all praying ( communicating with god )

There so many civilization in this world - christian civilization , muslim civilization , hindu , judaism , buddism and other civilizations - all has thier own historical legacy , culture, tradition , language , writting systems , community , social structures and GOD - but why someone from one civilization must say that his GOD or values are true / powerfull then other - how does he/she knows

What is that I hear? Brain dead people can`t pray. Well if a working brain is a necessity for prayer - is their really something spiritual going on?. Or is prayer and the feeling of the Holy spirit just a function of a working brain?

Commandment 10: you shalt not covet

This Commandment includes all things that are thy neighbors, whether it be thier wife/husband, car, clothes, anything belonging to them. It is not saying that you cant ask God for one just like thiers if you wish. What God is speaking of here, is desiring this object so much as to wish the owner evil. Coveting often leads to Envy and then to strife. Once this course of thought begins, it can rage like a wild-fire causing you and the other person dismay.


I dont know about you but I have always liked and wanted (Not that I ever try) my best friends boyfriend. Does this mean I have sinned and have you ever sinned because of this commandment?
