If the number of births is exactly equal to the number of deaths, then how can God be pro-life?

Yeah, yeah I know Christ rose from the dead but not into a corporeal human, but a spirit which ultimately returned to heaven. Technically he wasn't re-born.

My family believes that we have been cursed. There are 6 members in my family and hispanic. We are pretty wealthy as my dad owns a oil tanker company in Panama and my mother owns two businesses up here in the States. He has to travel often but he administers well. However, lately things aren't working out. One of my dad's ships was held up by interpol for investigation. His client had been shipping contraband, apparently. Not my dad's fault. Another is that my mother's businesses are at risk for being shut down. Not her fault either. I have a sister and two little brothers and we are all having severe depression for no apparent reason. There are plenty more issues, these are just the most recent.

I just need your views and ways to get rid of this. Is it spanis "Brujeria", voodoo, or something else?

Don't reply if you all you're gonna say is "it's not real."

I am a Christian looking for a practitioner of Judaism to converse with through e-mail or AOL instant messenger. I would like to eventually start participating in Jewish holidays, especially Passover, but I do not know that much about them, so I am looking for someone who can explain the nuts and bolts of the holidays to me. We can share our religious opinions and beliefs, also, and perhaps learn from each other.

It seems to me that there are many different messages being preached and taught in churches today and the true Gospel of Jesus Christ is rarely taught. Today it seems most churches preach decisionism, prosperity, how to become a better person, how to work your way to earn salvation, how to aviod the fires of hell, and how to get that free ticket to Heaven. Very rarely do you hear messages about repentance, turning away from the wrong doings of the world, becoming a New Creation in Christ and being led by the Spirit. I have been learning Greek and my first translation project is on the book of Galatians. I have also done historical, cultural studies on the first century when this was written. I found that the message Paul wrote to the Galatians is what we need to day. Many churches have deserted the true Gospel and have been lured to other messages. Does anybody know what I am saying? What are your thoughts?

where does the chain of intelligent designers end? if you're not going to evoke god into the discussion of intelligent design, you must reason that even the designer had a designer. and his designer had a designer as well. and so on an so forth. so where does the chain end? is it logical to assume that something as complex as an intelligent designer either just happened out of nothing or always existed?

People use this word alot in here, and it is most often used as if everyone agrees that there is only one of these, and they all ascribe the same attributes to it.

I doubt everyone has the same definition of god. Sooooo, when someone asks "do you believe in god", what do the mean?

I assume they mean the god of the bible, but I could be wrong.

Why is it that so many Christians, Muslims, etc, assume that Atheists or Agnostics are hapless, angry, presumptuous, and consciousless people with no future they look forward to and who care for nothing but themselves? Other than question your beliefs, what have they as an organized group done that would make you think this?

Can you not sympathize with why people might find it hard to believe in God as a result of what organized religion has caused for humanity?

I come only to get an understanding. I truly want to know.

For those who say they want God brought back into schools, into the government, etc....

Hypothetically, let's say that happened. Tomorrow, the US Government announces that we are now a theocracy, that prayer in school is mandatory, religious law supercedes secular law, etc. You get the idea.

How would you react if this happened, but it wasn't YOUR god? Or perhaps it was the same god you worship, but the mandated religious doctrine didn't jive with the doctrine YOU follow?

I saw this link on a previous question

ARE THE SAUDI'S COMPLETELY NUTS

Instead of helping the poor girl, after being GANG RAPED, THEY PUNISH HER!!

This is insane. I say we take this no longer. Muslims, come on, lets stand up. Lets change this. they are hurting us.. with their wild laws, they're just giving a bad name to muslims..

So lets change this.. but how?

All feedback welcome

And another question : does Sharia Law really support this decision?(punishment)

I mean does Sharia really enforce these type of punishments of RAPE VICTIMS?

There is no proof that God exists. All any one can do is to believe he does. I used to believe there was a Santa clause.

From 1-7, where do you think you stand on the probability spectrum of the existence of god...?

1.Strong theist. 100% probability of god. In other words "I do not believe, I KNOW"

2.Very high probability but short of 100%. "I cannot know for certain, but I strongly believe in god and live my life on the assumption that he is there."

3.Higher than 50% but not very high. Technically agnostic but leaning toward theism. "I am very uncertain, but I am inclined to believe in god."

4.Exactly 50%. Completely impartial agnostic. "God's existence and non-existance are exactly equiprobable."

5.Lower than 50% but not very low. Technically agnostic but leaning towards atheism. "I don't know whether god exists but I'm inclined to be sceptical."

6.Very low probability, but short of zero. "I cannot know for certain, but I think god is very improbable, and I live my life on the assumption that he is not there."

7.Strong atheist. "I KNOW there is no god."



I am somewhere between 6 and 7.
