Religion & Spirituality - 30 November 2007

I'm thinking the scene from Life of Brian where the guy has been condemned tobe stoned for sayin Jehovah. Realizing he has nothing to lose he starts dancing and singing Jehovah, Jehovah.

In our case how much respect and tolerance do we have to give hte Muslim world when every attempt to do so is rebuffed and a large portion wants our culture destroyed.

I seriously want to grab a teddy bear and dance around singing Mohammed, Mohammed and then hold up my copy of the Satanic verses. Then I will post it on Youtube along with videos of my wife driving somewhere or worse, showing her knees in public

In other words, if your underlying assumption is: “There is no God”
…and these are the “glasses” through which you look at the world:

Then even the most definitive, indisputable, reproducible proof of the existence of God would still have to be dismissed based on the underlying assumption, “There is no God”.

Kind of like saying, “There is no moon”:

Does this mean that:
1) Atheists who ask for proof are actually agnostics?
2) Even if God does exist, it would be impossible for even God Himself to prove it to an atheist?

Read Pv 22:6 - train up a Child in the way He SHOULD GO, and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

Not in the way he is going. Thats where many parents let their children loose. Love towards children also includes chastisement. Children getting too involved in TV, other sorts entertainment, and thus having no interest in the WORD of GOD. Its your responsibility to train them.

Where they need advice, advice them. Using the stick wont spoil them But its for their better-ment. Also, parents should have a burden to pray for them - sealing them in the Blood of Christ. Because they are living in the wicked world. If you dont, you will have to give account of this at the Day of the Lord.

If you havent done yet, START right away. All these to be done with the guidance of the HolySpirit.

Are you doing your duties?

(yes, i want to share this message across)

The answers that you're getting for your islmic questions are mainly being given by people who don't know a d*mn thing about the religion. 85% of YA are atheist and faith rejecters anyway, they don't know anything (L.M.A.O!!!) If you seriously want accurate answers and understanding of what the religion is really about, why don't you visit a mosque or islamic website????? Or do you just want to stir up some more controversy? Don't be so gullible

Why aren't people adopting all these little lives? If they see abortion as murder, then why isn't throwing fertalized eggs away murder?

*I wouldn't presume to my stance on this. You might be surprised. But I am curious to people's answers.

With Advent approaching, some parishes in my area are offering communal reconciliation, where you go and make a general confession (nothing specific) like going up for communion. If one is truly penitent, does this count as confession with absolution?

If you had a question about what a scripture means and want to have an understanding in it, would you like to have it explained to you and to know what it means and understand it at the same time?

I personally think its very helpful to have a verse explained so that you can get the full extent of understanding what it means and have it taken to heart. There is no harm in needing an explaination about a Scripture that you don't understand.

If God is an actual being and God is male, then God must have male genitals. Why? Why would God have genitals unless there was a Goddess He's having sex with? I mean, He wouldn't have a gender without genitals, and He wouldn't need genitals unless He had something to do with them.

OK. I understand that people are up in arms (almost literally from todays board) but can we please put a few things into perspective. Sudanese fighters have declared war on France's peacekeeping troops as they are due to go over to help refugees stuck between Chad, Sudan and Darfur. The problems in Sudan go far beyond Islam and a teacher. It is an extremely contentious region. Realize how many refugees are dying on the border and how many are trapped there trying to get out of Darfur (250,000). I feel that we are taking very complicated issues and oversimplifying them just to attack the Muslim people. Our country invaded an Islamic country and since you'd have to note that unrest around the world has only grown and it's not just with Islamic nations. Russia, China, North Korea.... not Islamic countries. This is a larger problem than just a teacher and a teddy bear but do you think it just gives you license to attack? I hope not. Thoughts? Thank you.

I had a very good laugh...
when Philip Pullman contemptably labelled The chronicles of Narnia as "Religious Propaganda"
Ha. what a joke...he is a bigot...but thinks that everyone else besides himself is. He's aloud to write a book with admittantly "anti-God" claims, to put it mildy, but CS Lewis isn't aloud to write a book with a Christian unlying theme.
I'm no relgious person, but I can't stands fools like that.

We have no fear of eternal death
We have no fear of the End of this system of things
We have the promises of a eternal body and life
Where no pain exsists
No Death exsists
The reunion of people we once loved and knew
The entire universe to explore GOD's infinite galaxies
God's Truth and Perfection
To walk with Jesus and ask him any question we ever had
To worship and adore our Lord with such infinite happiness
How wonderful is this to you?
