Religion & Spirituality - 18 December 2007

Someone posted, made me think of "Eve of Destruction" and it was written either in the '60's or '70's and their talking about the end. People talked about it before Y2K, now it's 2012 and the Mayan Calendar and the Galactic Alignment. People have thought the end was coming even in Jesus's time. They thought he was coming back in their lieftime. Another one that stands out is 1492. People thought that was the end because it was supposedily the 7,000th year of Creation. This is why Nostradomus is alive and well. He was vague and everyone applies it to THEMSELVES!

A question posed, caused me to wonder, how many people would accept an implanted chip, or recive a mark in order to establish identity, & or location. as for me, I am not worldly. Nor am I that eager to become a puppet.

In other words, how does one become a Christian? Did they accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior and accept Him into their hearts? What does the Bible say?

I always do...unless the link is a home page, and I have to search through it to find what I am looking for. I will look it over for maybe two minutes, and if I can't figure out how to navigate to what I am looking for, that's it. I'm done.

So, anyway, I just wanted to find out if looking for links to support my answer is a waste of time. :)

Atheists might say "we lived our life with truth and logic"
Believers might say "we lived our life with blind faith"
if there exist life after death (hell & heaven) or vice versa
who is better off ?

It is not pushing my religion on to them. This is a simple question. Going alone to church is fine too. To me, going to church on Christmas Eve is celebrating Jesus' Birth and giving him all the glory. I do not believe it is a selfish thing to do since I put God first instead of me.

this is a serious question. i'm not trying to take stabs at either side here. i'm curious to know who is really more insulted? the atheists, from the idea that many christians and other religions believe we are doomed to eternal hellfire and torture because we don't want to believe what they believe? or is the christians and other religions, who believe that everything they have good in their lives is because they were blessed by god, and then see atheists who can live good lives without believing in a god?

and someone runs in telling you that the whole place is on fire.... after looking around, there are no alarms, no smoke, no fire trucks, no heat, no evidence of a fire.... just a few people screaming....

Would you run outside? Assume the person was mistaken?

Like "Swarthy Brigands" or "Malfeasant Warlocks"?

What about "Foot-Rubbing Vagabonds" or "Cunning Linguists"?

Most of you say all the Christian websites are bias so should I think that every non Christian site is bias?

I think it was created by Isaac Bonewits, though it's possible it was around before he wrote about it in 1971. It states that through the collective unconscious (Jung) people with psychic abilities (which according to my faith is everyone) can add and take away from our collective Switchboard. For instance, if everyone disbelieves Jesus, he won't exist anymore. If enough people psychically project a true faith in Tahuti, the God of Knowledge, Cerridwen the Cauldron Goddess, or even the Lord and lady of the Wild, they will be a Gods that people dream about and pray to. You don't even have to be vocal about it, the change will come first from the Switchboard, then will just be how people view things.

The pastor would live by faith that his needs would be met, church would be held in a rented hall or parishioners home or farm, people would give of their time to help others in the community, every cent in the tithes and offerings plate would go to charity. What do others think?

Only the seven brothers neither marry nor are given in marriage in heaven. Was not God the father of Christ and the rest of us before we were born on earth? Do fathers give birth?
are families eternal as God's is.

So, for example, murder, rape, torture can be forgiven (I understand you are supposed to repent), but not blasphemy against the holy ghost.

Does anyone else find that morally repugnant?

It suggests that such blasphemy is worse than any other act, no matter how despicable.

Are you quick to hear and slow to speak, or quick on both counts, or slow of hearing and quick to speak, or how?
Just curious.
For me, it's a mixed thing, sometimes I listen well, other times I just can't seem to shut up.
