birthdays and Christmas etc because that keeps them from associating with people from different beliefs ? I see this matter as a control issue. How about you?

Is there anything else about him other than what is in the Bible? There is so little about him and I find him interesting. If any Catholics read this I read that he was supposed to have gotten saved and been baptized by Peter and John. Do you guys believe this to be true?

I see it all the time "You don't believe in anything" or "Atheists believe in nothing." I'm atheist and I happen to believe in many things... It's just that none of them happen to be god.

It seems to me like many people confuse atheism with nihilism, Lebowski.

I guess we know what film I'm talking about *drink*

I heard this on the news, and then found it in Wiki:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Golden_Compass_(film)

"Several key themes of the novels, the rejection of organized religion and the abuse of power in a fictionalized Catholic Church, were diluted in the adaptation. Director Weitz said "in the books the Magisterium is a version of the Catholic Church gone wildly astray from its roots" but that the organization portrayed in his film would not directly match that of Pullman's books. Instead, the Magisterium will represent all dogmatic organizations."

So if I have this right, the film adaptation is "milder" than the books. I'm thinking that it would be a good idea to read the books first, then see the film and compare them. Would you agree?

Jesus called 12 men and spent every day with them for about three years. 11 of them finally came to a place in their lives where they realized they could do nothing without him. Judas still had other plans of his own and we know how that ended. Have you came to that place yet where God calls all the shots or do you still have your own agenda?

11 And He said to them, “To you it has been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to those who are outside, all things come in parables

Now i have proven that the Bible is true!!!

This "atom" idea is flawed for these reasons:

- Atom theory is only a theory. It is not necessarily true

- Even these so-called atomist "scientists" will admit that atomism is only a theory

- No one has actually ever seen an atom

- The existance of atoms disprove the existance of God (it was not mentioned in the Bible, so it's wrong)

- These atomists can't even make up their mind about what the atom looks like!

I read in Matthew 2:23 that it was SPOKEN BY THE PROPHETS that "He [Jesus] shall be called a Nazarene." Can you find this in any other writing that existed prior to 4 BCE?

Okay..I had this up on my mind, and thought about it.

Now each religion teaches things like being good to one another, loving your loved ones, tolerance, and all that good stuff. Even if you don't have a religion, like atheists, arent those still the basic ethics of life? There are 6 Billion (6,000,000,000) people on this planet. You Can't make/force all 6 billion believe in the same thing you do right? Forcing people to believe in something, is no better than what the Fascists did.

Now anywhere i go from a Christian its "if you don't believe in god, you will go to hell". First of all, thats ignorant. Second, if the person you are saying this doesn't believe in god in the first place, why bother threatening him/her with Hell? - (Which is another thing he/she doesn't believe in"

From an atheist, its always "mumbo jumbo, fairy tale". That's also ignorant to where both parties are insulting one's belief.

I think religion should be between God and You

The seemed to dare to question the hardworking, long suffering priests who were trying to protect the people.

Do they exist? Can they be stopped?

I travel many place?
Every time i see the number (1 ) in 3D and the color of silver. I see new places but the last dream i was in my big brother house ut all i so was big brothers wife and the 2 children i know that the asteroid is going to hit near by so i said hide now. But the only place they can hide was under a big window that has no glass i block the door with a heavy thing that i can see and the last one was a table or something i block my brother family with it so the glass will not hit them. Then at the same time i also sat just beside them because i just so the panic going on outside then i close my eye very tight then me or my dream spirit become one with my body then i counted 1 and then 2 then i so a glow when the asteroid hits near by even when my eye is close a glow of warm coming out of my head and that is only me can see.
A glow for more hope maybe?

The ideal of right-handed superiority is even in the Bible, which we left-handed oppressors often cite, thinking it will somehow dissuade the lefties to the good side. Matthew 25:41 states, "Then shall he say also unto them on the LEFT hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels."

There are a lot of people who Claim to be Christian but are not, (if you get mad at this.... are you questioning if you are one?) but I was wondering if there are Satanists or Atheists who claim to be Satanists or Atheists but are not? How would I know them if I met them?
