    Are you sure you are an Atheist?

    Maybe they were too pushy with you and you reacted to that. I’m sure that nature has a say too. We are not born “blank papers”. We do have a basic character. Maybe yours didn’t like people pushing you towards a belief. Others don’t mind. My daughter, she is now 7, has a strong “pull” towards...

    Can Religion and Science work together?

    Actually, that’s a perfect example. :thumbsup: Astronomy and Astrology used to be one for several centuries. Worked just fine. So was Chemistry and Alchemy. Almost all ancient Greek scientists were also Mysts (initiated in the ancient religious Mysteries). Aristotle, Democritus, Hippocrates...

    Can Religion and Science work together?

    Maybe religion can offer possible explanations to things science can’t give explanations? Maybe these explanations can be examined by science to find proof or at least a rational/possible validation? Do you think that is possible?

    Are you sure you are an Atheist?

    What if they are taught to think that way ever since they are born? What if our perspectives about religion, god, divinity, etc, is purely based on nurture? My parents were both atheists, but tried not to influence me with their beliefs. I was free to believe anything I wished without...

    The Pantheistic side of the Gospels

    I agree! But can we assume that god of Genesis had an actual body? .

    Was Jesus Married? It's either yes or no.

    In how many weddings have you been where the guests gave orders to the caterers or the waiters? Because I’ve never seen this happening. The only people that are entitle to give orders besides the bride and groom, are the mothers and fathers of the wedded couple. Maybe the siblings too, but...

    Astronomy & Esoteric Astrology in the Gospels?

    ... There are strong indications that the four Gospels of the Cannon have a hidden story: that of the Sun’s travel in each constellation of the zodiac, within a solar year. The purpose of this story is: a) as simple as to teach astronomy and b) to show and teach the esoteric journey from...

    The Pantheistic side of the Gospels

    This verse also confuses me: Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed them. [Gen. 3:21] Are these actual coats or are they the physical body? Since god created man in his own image and likeness, then it is safe to say that in the beginning man had no...

    Was Jesus Married? It's either yes or no.

    I’m not so sure about that. Continuing the passage we read: And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine.Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do...

    Jesus as a name

    Do you know that there is a chance that Lucifer and Jesus are actually the same person? How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! - Is. 14:12 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things...

    Ancient Greek Religion

    I use proper case for "Pythagoreans", "Ephesians", "Zen", "Tao"... "Atheism", "Humanism" etc. These are not religions either. I don't know if it is grammatically incorrect or not, but I really don't care. I use proper case because they deserve it. :) .

    Ancient Greek Religion

    Pantheism is not really a religion as it is a theistic point of view and, as a term, it is born in ancient Greece. Pan (all) + Theos (god) = everything is god. The first Pantheists are considered to be the Pythagoreans, even though the Orphics (that pre-date Pythagoras) did also have strong...

    How to reach a state where one doesnt fear death?

    . I think we have established that most of us (if not all) are not really afraid of death it self, but the way we might die, the probable pain, agony, long period of discomfort etc. as well as leaving loved ones behind. That is all true. But, many people also fear what comes next. After...

    Are you sure you are an Atheist?

    . First of, I have to say that I’m sorry about you being separated from your mother in such a tender age. I hope your adopted family treated you well and you had happy childhood. The experience you had was very interesting. I’ve heard of similar experiences and I know there have been...
