Religion & Spirituality - 20 December 2007

Or engaging in christmas traditions? Like Christmas trees, exchanging gifts, etc. Considering that it was a usurped PAGAN holiday to begin with? Can't they see they're complaining about people doing the same thing they're doing?

for example - the 2 major muslim groups in Iraq blowing themselves to bits?
or Israel bombing the living daylight out of Palestinian children?
or do you cry when the pope comes on his little balcony and tells ppl what to do with all that gold and fur around his neck but all you can see is a little african child with a bloated stomach?

and then finally ,do you cry when you see the financial report on how much stuff ppl have bought for Christmas in the name of Jesus Christ to make their children who are nice and fed and overweight and taken too well care of in the name of others slaving in a different nation?

I cry sometimes! do you?

In Genesis, God first creates Heaven and Earth, then later he creates the sun. That implies that the earth is older than the sun. Is this what Christians believe?

One. I was praying about Gods will for me and in a vision He showed me a tree with hundreds of birds nesting in it. Two, He showed me myself looking in a mirror and my reflection was a different person. Also, He showed me my shodow as I walked and said " Your shadow is a different person ". Are these things found in any spiritual books or stories ?

I was driving in the snow today and hit a patch of ice right before an exit ramp and my car turned into oncoming traffic and stalled out.

For 2 minutes, cars swerved around me while I tried desperately to restart my car. By some miracle, my car finally restarted and the nearest cars were able to stop so I could turn around and get off the exit.

Do you think there is some reason I made it out of the situation alive?

I know to be an atheist all that is required is not believing in god. Well, I've got that covered, but I have no atheist friends, literally no one that I know is an atheist. Already from hanging around here for a bit I feel less alone. What I'm looking for is general tips and guidelines and general things that you think I should know. Please feel free to be as weird or insulting as you want to be. I know I can't stop it! I am just hoping for a few helpful responses.

Would Jesus' prefer we celebrate his birth or commemorate his death? Since on the night of the "Last Supper," just before his death, Jesus said, "Keep doing this is remembrance of me." (Luke 22:19)
He never said, "Celebrate my birth." as only pagans celebrated birthdays.

Would Jesus be pleased with a pagan celebration that he never asked us to do?

Do any of you know if there are any homosexuals who have repented of what they have been doing and ended up getting married (to someone of the opposite sex) and having a happy life? Christians, what is your view on this?

Hate Christians so much? Our Christian forefathers certainly built a great nation in which they can also worship Thier Gods or all Gods or absolutely no Gods with freedom. Some other places put you to death for such offences. Better yet, for even lesser crimes. It was no accident, you were born here or brought here It was Gods amazing Grace. God has personally Blessed each of you to live here. Even if you choose not to believe in him, he is still your creator. If you hate Christians soooo much, why wouldn't you strive to go live where your own beliefs are the dominate beliefs. The way immigrants strive to make it here for a better life. Instead of so arrogantly taking advantage of what so many of your despised christian ancestors fought and died for. No disrespect intended, just some thoughts. Usually, people who inherit thier fathers land, have more respect for thier fathers.

Do you think you can hide from The Lord and what you think you got away with? Everyone eventually is going to know about what you did and how you did it, no matter how much you try to cover it up.
Did you air out your dirty laundry today?

I understand nobody can know God's mind - hence the question.

PS: I'm not expecting many answers as there a plenty more questions posed in this forum that are easier to jump to and answer. But thank you for those of you who try.
