| ARE YOU SURE??????? Posted: 10/28/2004 9:33:12 PM | Open your heart to the possibility...ask Him to come into your life...He will show you he is real in His way ... the bible says you will know the truth and the truth will make you free.. We all (believers) took a chance and listened to our inner voice as we trusted. Now we know in our hearts because He reveals Himself to us.. Draw near to him and he will to you... Sometimes christians seem frustrated for the way to show He is real ...it is not our job to show you anything only to inform you...Peace | |

People do come to Church for the wrong reasons. I'm not sure about escape being on of them though. I, generally, am not fond of the world that we live in, for a broad range of reasons, plus I understand that Heaven is quite preferable.

I'm still trying to figure this out, you can't seriously think that Humans are inately good. There is =zip= evidence to support it.
...
wow. Serious flashback. I could have sworn I had a dream about doing this years ago. maybe I'm here for a specific reason. | |

I had a dream where I was typing something, and the margins looked like this, and these really stupid and unorthatdox smileys were off to the side, and I paused and stared at them, and then started typing out how I had a dream about it.
I do remember that it was some sort of discussion about God in the dream.
Oh, and it was on a laptop, Like I'm on now. It's rare that I'm on one, but I am, because I'm in the middle of moving.
Wierd, Eh? | |

| ARE YOU SURE??????? Posted: 10/28/2004 11:36:49 PM | Very weird indeed... maybe you should go check out the "My Dreams come true" (or something like that) thread over in the Other forum.
Sorry to interrupt, "game on!" | |

No.
....
No.
Aside from the fact that no one is perfect, that no one is entirely good, your entire stance rests on the idea that "Goodness" comes from 'within' or whatever.
So if when you go into the realm or "Some people are bad, and some good" then you've already contradicted your ideas. Goodness HAS to be Good, and Badness HAS to be Bad. Otherwise there is -no- point to you talking about people being good or otherwise, because you're litmus test changes for each and every person, and there is no GOOD or BAD. Just... Nothing. Random acts. And if that were the case, then we can flush 5000 years or recorded history/evidence down the drain, because it's all meaningless. | |

| ARE YOU SURE??????? Posted: 10/30/2004 2:39:56 PM | | you are right. there are no two right answers. the good bad or indifferent. some people only see in black and white. right and wrong. but as we all know we can bend certain rules, read between lines and make it work. not neccesarily right, or wrong either. and goodness does come from within. "i can feel the good in you father" sorry, i couldn't help that!!! you have to feel the foodness in order to share it with others. | |

| ARE YOU SURE??????? Posted: 10/30/2004 2:56:52 PM | """ we are just like anything else. some are good and some are bad, useless wastes of space."""
i agree some are good and some are bad but i think all have potential to become either.. good gone bad, or bad gone good. | |

| Where are the Dinasours :) Posted: 2/17/2005 1:35:51 PM | | So where in the bible does it mention dinasours? If Im not mistaken it mentions foul of the air and other animals that we currently have today. What happened to the Caveman & Dinasour? I have a though but wanted to hear some of yours first. | |

| ARE YOU SURE??????? Posted: 2/17/2005 2:15:56 PM | | I was born a Luthern, and converted to Wicca only recently(been about 9 months i think) so yea i am still young in terms of my faith i suppose. But that doesn't mean i don't feel strongly for it because i do. How do any of us know we are on the right path? faith alone, its just somthing we know in our hearts and souls. If you have any doubts about your faith, then i suggest you look at some others, you'll ethier realize yours is the best or maybe another is calling your name. People who say don't look you'll fall off the right path, need to be IGNORED they mean well but, no one path is right or wrong they all have spiritual benefits. | |

Thanks Loukus, that's pretty much my take on things.
I can understand your position on morality. I guess nature is not moral, nor is the rest of the universe. Just humans, and then, only some. Having a God to worry about which causes one to self-impose morality is a pretty safe way to go about it. Having to make the decision at each point in one's life where the question whether to be moral or not comes up, is much more difficult, imho. | |

| ARE YOU SURE??????? Posted: 10/5/2006 12:58:28 PM | | That´s why I don´t believe in any God. I believe in a higher force but I don´t name that force as God and I don´t give this force a genitive and call it she or he. | |

| ARE YOU SURE??????? Posted: 10/5/2006 2:24:44 PM | There is a God, this is my belief, and when you can disprove God, let me know.

|
| ARE YOU SURE??????? Posted: 10/5/2006 4:42:31 PM | I personally believe in a Mother God/Father God duality.
Even if I'm completely wrong, I don't believe God is petty or vain enough to care. Those are human emotions. | |
