Rev. Einstein: "try repenting of your sins first...."
I have no 'sins' to repent for, Reverend. I've never 'sinned' in my life. You must have me confused with someone else?

Kelly: "First you would have to define what you mean by fundamentalists. Or do you lump all Christians in that group."
Don't play coy, Kelly. You know very well what I mean by 'fundamentalists'. Also, if you can find any mention of 'Christians' in my original question, please point it out?
fundamentalism |ˌfəndəˈmentlˌizəm| noun:
• strict maintenance of ancient or fundamental doctrines of any religion or ideology, notably Islam.
Modern Christian fundamentalism arose from American millenarian sects of the 19th century, and has become associated with reaction against social and political liberalism and rejection of the theory of evolution. Islamic fundamentalism appeared in the 18th and 19th centuries as a reaction to the disintegration of Islamic political and economic power, asserting that Islam is central to both state and society and advocating strict adherence to the Koran ( Qur'an) and to Islamic law ( sharia), supported if need be by jihad or holy war.

Because we chose to take this journey in life with the gift from God of Free Will
And what ever we experience is what we planned for our Souls personal grow
When we can't except was is going on in our lives we blame others
yes even God this is our Ego not excepting self responsibility and our Ego does not like change
So then you have the fight between your Ego and your Soul
Your Soul will never lead you astray however your Ego can be your best friend or even your worse enemy
A Quote by Anthony De Mello
Wouldn't it be wonderful if we had a world where everybody said,
'We don't know?'
The fact is that you're surrounded by God and you don't see God,
Because you KNOW ABOUT God.
The final barrier to the vision of God is your God concept.
You miss God because you think you know.
The highest knowledge of God is to know God as unknowable.
All revelations, however divine, are never any more than a finger pointing at the moon.
As we say in the East, 'When the sage points to the moon,
All the idiot sees is the finger'.
Love & Blessings

First you would have to define what you mean by fundamentalists. Or do you lump all Christians in that group. Second you might want to check out a character named Balam in the Old testament. Makes for an interesting read. Numbers 22 starting verse 5. He was paid to curse Gods people.

Remember that prayer is not like rubbing a Gennie lamp, sometimes the answer is NO.

First of all, you don't have to bow your head. It is polite, but you don't HAVE to do it.
Anyway, Maybe it's not God's will or something bad would happen. Maybe something better will happen or there's more life to live.

Your mind cannot touch God's heart until you get a changed heart from Him !!! Does not sound logical does it !!! Its because your heart is on the wrong frequency !!!
