Religion & Spirituality - 27 December 2007

books, stones & herbs? I received a "portable" witch kit for x mas. It has an athame, a silver pentacle, a chakra wand, incense with some weird metal thing to burn it with, 2 white candles & candlesticks.

I've heard good things about Scott Cunninghams books. I also have a book called "The Craft" by Dorothy Morrison not be confused with the movie lol. Any other suggestions for items (not too expensive) I may need?

*Please DO NOT answer unless you know something about this. No bible beaters telling me to "Come back to Jesus".

Do you really think this is true? I think its BS. I challenge any Christian to say they trust a law abiding atheist less than a convicted felon. Do u believe this statistic reflects how people generally view atheist. I dont.

Okay, this happened Sunday, and it still makes me kind of upset. I teach Sunday School, and I brought Christmas presents and Christmas cards for the kids. I also brought cupcakes so we could do the "Happy Birthday Jesus" thing. I knew the kids were having their Christmas program during the morning service, so I brought extra stuff in case I had some kids who weren't usually in my class.

Okay, so I get to church and find out that the kids are doing program practice instead of having Sunday School! No one told me this ahead of time, even though it had been planned for several weeks. I was quite upset that I had to drag everything back out to the car. I also was left with a plateful of cupcakes that will have to go to waste because they won't last until next week. And, I have to go out and get new cupcakes. Maybe I'm just being petty, but it really irritated me that no one involved with the program could have dropped me an e-mail that the kids would be practicing.

islam is such a peaceful religion, why do most muslims stand quietly by while islamic terrorists all over the world make people everywhere hate islam? Why no HUGE outcry from all the "peaceful" muslims all over the world? Why aren't the "peaceful" ones arresting the islamic terrorists worldwide?????

Has any Jehovah's Witnesses ever heard of a "secret" book that only elders have?

Have you ever seen it or read it?

Ok, this is only for those who know spell craft
i keep hearing about it threw many things, many sources, and still i don't know whether to believe it or not.
if it is true, is it evil, or can it be used for good.
for those who say it doesn't exist, go ahead and say it, i am not going against you.
but for those of you who believe in it, make your out burst as well, as i am not going against you either, i just wish to know, as i am trying to open doors in to the real world, and get past the world i see in front of me.
if you believe in this, and want to show, please say so, and leave some account of proof, such as a spell or ritual, whatever may help support your belief
and for those of you who say it is not real, like the others, please leave a reason why you think so.
just for those who do not believe, the only reason i havn't decided whether i believe or not is because of the same reason i believe in god.
i have never seen him, or heard him, or felt him, but i have faith he exist.

Jehovah says in Deut. 18:20-22: "But a prophet who presumes to speak in my name anything I have not commanded him to say, or a prophet who speaks in the name of other gods, must be put to death. You may say to yourselves, “How can we know when a message has not been spoken by Jehovah?” If what a prophet proclaims in the name of Jehovah does not take place or come true, that is a message Jehovah has not spoken. That prophet has spoken presumptuously. Do not be afraid of him."

Nothing the Watchtower Organization has prophecied since its beginnings in the mid 1800's has come true. That's a 100% failure rate for an organization that claims to be God's "prophet in this generation."

It's evident the Bible does not consider Jehovah's Witnesses prophets.... so why should people listen to you?
