Religion & Spirituality - 19 November 2007

I wanted to see signs telling me which direction to go for a long time. Couldnt see any. Typically, I stopped looking and now there are signs everywhere!! But i dont know how to make sense of them. Its too long a story to explain the signs, but if anyone else is a follower, can you tell me how to interpret so they point somewhere?!

definition of 'snivelution' : phenomenon of people continually arguing that either evolution is real, proving God doesn't exist, or creation is real, proving that he/she does exist, and the obssession these people have to keep arguing about it, even though neither position can be proven.

I mean the bible states that it does not contain even one contradiction, however it does, so it is not infallible. If it is not infallible, then when god that claims it is, he must be wrong. If god is wrong, then he cannot always be right. If by definition god must always be right but is not, then god must not exist.

What do you think?

I have known someone for around 10 years, who went to highschool with my parents, she has been more of a mentor to me than a psychic. But she always gets people to do things for her and sometimes gets mad if they don't. She's good at sending good energy or bad to you, without even being in your presence.
I've only received cleansings from her, but now I am at a point in my life where I feel as though she likes me to depend on her for that.
Sometimes, I get the feeling like were part of some cult.
I want out if it is, I done it slowly in the past few weeks and I think she's got the message.
WHEN DO YOU KNOW WHEN YOUR ENVOLVED WITH SOMEONE WHO IS A CULT LEADER? WHAT ARE THE SIGNS?
I would appreciate some intelligent answers please. Thanks.

In fact, where does the Bible address the *specifics* of raising children in the Christian faith at all? Doesn't it pretty much deal with generalities?

Doesn't the time frame in which the New Testament was written preclude any specific, detailed instructions on the raising of children in the faith? The people of that time were concerned primarily with spreading the Good News of Jesus to a whole generation who had not yet heard. Wouldn't the tough questions of raising children in the faith develop over a couple of generations rather than being an immediate New Testament concern?

Pat Robertson, Billy Graham and their ilk - are there any among those numbers who could truly be considered good people and good christians? Ones who have not absconded with funds or church secretaries, don't damn entire cities to hell, etc. And ones whose names aren't embroiled in any type of scandal now or in the past.

I think there IS one but I can't remember his name.

i haven't seen a guy with 10 heads. does that mean that he exists? god is just like that too. there is more proof to prove that god does not exist than their is proof that god exists. just because the bible or other religious books say that god exists doesn't mean that it exists. bible was made up by someone's imagination and i can proove it. a guy wrote a book and he was not a christian. he lived in nepal which is was a complete hindu caountry and most of the things written by him was in the bible. this prooves that bible and all religious books and their phony god were made up by people

I know this isn't true across the bored but I know several people who like Ron Paul but say they will vote for a Democrat to be President if Ron Paul does not get the nomination.

Can you get any more polar opposite?

Ron Paul = small, small, small government
Democrats = big, bigger, bigger government

The support or nonsupport of the war should not be the central issue. Every single Democrat has not vowed to be out of Iraq by the end of their term. I would like to see more discussion on counter terrorism strategy and securing Iraq strategy rather then do you support or not support. If a Democrat goes into office we will have a full force in Iraq for at least a year.

So what will the Democrats and/or Republicans do in order for us to be more successful in Iraq? (even if we are "pulling out")

And what will the Democrats and/or Republicans do in order to better protect Americans from terrorism?

Independent minds want to know!

I've seen it asked on here multiple times what it would take for atheists to turn into Christians, and the main answer given is "proof" or the "personal experience" that Christians and others are always talking about. But I've also seen several people say that if they were to experience something supernatural, they would assume their mind was playing tricks on them or they were going crazy.

You know I'm not here to try and change anyone's mind so please don't jump to assumptions about that. I'm just wondering....doesn't that part about assuming your mind is playing tricks to you completely negate the claim that you'd change your religious views if you had a religious experience? This isn't just about Christianity, it could be the same with Paganism, etc. I guess I could even pose this to Christians: would you be open minded enough to change your views if Thor spoke to you, or would you assume it was a demon or something and try to explain it away? Is anyone truly open minded?
