    Simple Living and Higher Thinking

    I agree with a life of simple living. We need to start pulling away from the use of oil and other non-sustainable energy sources and start focusing on how to actually survive. I don't believe the an old-style (or any style) belief in god would have any benefit whatsoever. The wars that have...

    If Jesus died for our sins....

    That depends on what you refer to as 'dead'. If the person is brain dead and has no consciousness, no amount of revival will bring that person back into consciousness. At best, their heart may pump blood round their body but their brain will remain non-functional. People who have had 'near...

    If Jesus died for our sins....

    - Can you explain what a life of divinity means? Same applies to the ability to imagine eternity? - I have the right to judge whatever I feel needs judging. Again, your assumption that I'm judging what I didn't create (whatever that is) means nothing to me. - I'm not asking anyone for...

    If Jesus died for our sins....

    Absolute conjecture. How can anyone know what happens when you die? They're all still alive aren't they? If anyone tells you that they KNOW what happens when they die, they're lying. The reason I know this? Because I don't know what happens when you die and nobody else has mental abilities...

    I think not. Sarcasm and I are best buddies. When someone starts talking about filthy gays and the fact that god likes lesbians... It's more than likely that a religious person does believe the crap they're spewing that. It is, after all, another made up rule which is used in an attempt to...

    My point is exactly what the words read. People are free to make up as much BS as they want because they assume god has a view on it. Even if he existed... how do you know? Was it in the bible? Even if it was, that story book was written by MEN.

    If Jesus died for our sins....

    I guess the greatest tragedy is knowing people act this way because of what they believe will happen when they die. There's absolutely nothing wrong with achieving as much as possible in life even if it means committing sin... we KNOW we're having a good life. We don't KNOW what happens when we...

    If Jesus died for our sins....

    With no physical form (as you say) and nothing for this fire to react with or to burn, I don't think it would matter. I don't rely on Jesus or the law to be a good person. I rely on my own conscience, experiences and upbringing. Do you understand the notion of not NEEDING anything to lead a...

    If only the many priests had had a little more privacy in their chambers with the children who were robbed of their childhoods. Religion might seem a little cleaner, at least.

    If Jesus died for our sins....

    You're right... it makes no difference to me. I'm happily living my life for what it is instead of for what I'm told will happen. I guess that's just another question about religion which has no actual answer.

    If Jesus died for our sins....

    Hi All, Genuine question here. I want to ask about a term which I hear a lot by religious people: Jesus died for our sins (or similar). This gives the impression that mankind should feel lucky that he did die for our sins. Fine... no debate there. My question is what would have happened if...
