Religion & Spirituality - 10 December 2007

Hi I am Catholic & I am studying Arabic & Muslim culture. I do know that when a Arabic female she could only marry to a Arabic man.

Ok back to my question. There are many culture have have different Gods like Buddhist,David,Ganesha-Elephan,Virgin-Mary & Chinese Gods. I want to know which the Arabic God are they talking about?

PS Please I am not being a rude & I am offending anyone. Just like I said, I am educating myself of religions. Thank you!

I just finished paying bills and reviewing all of the shopping I did this past weekend. Typically, I take half of what I buy back after I crunch numbers and realize I can't afford it! Then after a sigh of relief, my eyes watered because I realized that for the first time in 31 years, God has blessed me to be financially stable. I paid bills, bought presents, and treated myself...and I still have a checking account balance, with no panic!

I am abundantly blessed and grateful.

Please share your "shining" blessing for 2007...I'll probably cry because I am pretty emotional right now :) How can you not weep at the goodness of the Lord, when we rarely deserve it?

people would be if a mosque tried to protect itself in the same way. Just wondering, but I bet it would raise a few eyebrows.

I'm not a Christian trying to prove "god" or be a smarta$$ and question your beliefs. I'm just asking. If this miserable life is all, shouldn't I just kill myself and get it over with? Please no Christians telling me everyone has a purpose, NO, we live to die anyway.

Why live at all if I just die anyway? You get me? Please I'm very serious.

Don't tell me to see a shrink, I don't have any mental issues, depression is bull people just want pills.

The pastor of the church in Colorado that suffered the shooting just admitted this and claimed they needed that many for the size church building and congregation. Locked doors and security cameras would seem a better fit for a house of God. What ever happened to turn the other cheek as Jesus taught? What possibly could have been the perceived threat that called for that much firepower where people go to worship the Prince of Peace? And what's the deal with the state of Colorado and guns?

Could you give me some verses?

I think he said not to build empires and become powerful.
(I don't think that went over so well if you look into the history of the church lol)

If hell has a beginning so it must be finite therefore it must have an end. i can see how heaven can be forever if heaven is being in the presence of god and god is infinite then heaven can be forever.

To my friend Angie, and other religious people out there, this is not a stab at you. I respect your believes and your religion, I am not a religious bunny however and know many who are not. I was wondering, when did this belive come common and it was not almost mandatory to follow any form of religion?

Do you think that images of the Divine, or icons, should be an important part of a conversion to Roman Catholicism? Why or why not?

If you could base your answer on two novels, Life of Pi and The Secret Life of Bees, that would be great. If not, I would still appreciate an answer. The longer and more detailed the answer is, the better =)

Like 666 points or 1666 points or 4666 points or 6660 points. Etc. Would you leave it on that point number, or would you do something to change the number before you logged off? Christianity, specifically, has a bit of an issue with 666.

I'm curious because I noticed my points yesterday (which didn't have those numbers in it) and got to thinking about what happened when I lived in Alaska. The driver's license numbers rolled into the 666000s and there was enough hew and outcry to have the state skip the 666000s and start with 667000.

I see this all the time and I can't help but laugh. I "know" the Christian god has never been a part of my life regardless of the begging that came before this realization. I have had people tell me "Well I just know hes with me". I am not doubting he is. But I "just know" he's not with me. How come it works one way but not the other?

Earlier I asked for any historical proof that the Catholic Church is not the Church created by Christ and the apostles. No one was able to come up with any historical proof, because it is the Church created by Christ and the apostles.

Remember if you believe that it did become apostate then Jesus was a liar and incompetent in His promises to the Church for the gates of Hell did prevail against His Church. I am especially interested in how the so called "restoration churches" justify their rejection of Christ's Church in view of Christ's promises to the Church..

Can I have you close your eyes or whatever and think about eternity? Think deeply about eternity. In heaven or in hell. If I think about it long enough it becomes kind of weird to think about. Kind of like its too much for my mind to comprehend. It never ends and 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 years is not even a pinch of it.
What do you think about ETERNITY?
