    The watch analogy

    I do not think that the op is a THOUGHTLESS op at all. Just thoughtless people doing what they do best ... being thoughtless. Isaiah 45:7 I *form* the light, I CREATE evil (or darkness, as some versions have it); I *make* peace, I CREATE war. What is there not to get? Of course there is a...

    The watch analogy

    Isaiah 45 ... I think that the "concept" you are referring to is realized in this chapter. particularly verse 7 ... :shout is about right.

    Romance, the erie evidence of God.

    A lot of this, how I would respond is going to depend upon which you are referring ... I have no issues with many of the eastern philosophical religions, and out of the three major religions, I have no issues with Biblical Judaism. I do take issues w/ religions that use deception for gaining...

    Romance, the erie evidence of God.

    :) Well, I find it fascinating to read your posts. They are entertaining (in a good way). I am still in the air w/ religion. True, that when you are brought up in it, it leaves little breathing room. As for me, I was blessed by my father to never stop questioning myself (he questions me...

    Romance, the erie evidence of God.

    You are welcome to point it out BTW ... where it says in the account that they would be white. or do you admit that Atheists and Agnostics are not knowledgable of it anymore than are the Theists? I am curious to know one way or another if they in fact do know better than Theists the Scriptures...

    Romance, the erie evidence of God.

    Who said that God made it from only two people? Adam represented mankind and Eve (Israel, the People ... not the State) represented Wisdom. Then, you take your journey, and if you pay attention and are absolutely honest with yourself, the patterns are there, even before you were aware of them...

    Is There Really Something Wrong with You?

    I used to think that this was really possible, and I guess maybe it is .. but that is going to be a matter of perspective, and if one's range of view is limited, there is the blind-spot to the massive amount of unnecessary suffering going on in the world due to makind's general egotistical...

    Everybody is an individual Everything is one

    As a human, but with actual choices ... I think we are more forced to be the animals as it stands now. Trained to do as our masters command and often w/out even awareness as we are led to their bidding call. Once in, w/ little option to step out of line because the punishment won't fit the...

    Is There Proof God Exists????

    Two Creation Stories

    This is the pattern by which He creates. Read Jeremiah, it is fascinating as evidence that the Creator of Life never stopped creating; even is, and the pattern is the same, 1-3 ... the rest of the Tanach follows suit. But for lack of interest these days to what IS actually the enjoyment of Life...

    Romance, the erie evidence of God.

    what precisely did he partake of w/ her? what is she put through specifically as a result of this? Can you point out the places where she makes her vows and what her heart was speaking when she made them? there seems to me something spoken that she is spit upon, and repeatedly, even as though it...

    Biblical Archaeology; the most stunning proof of God.

    Why do you feel threatened? I would think you as one to be embarrassed to admit such considering.

    Can science prove mathematics?

    Actually, many Christians would probably find depressing knowing what many physicists have dubbed as the forbidden knowledge (that is the knowledge that we, as individuals are "nothing" in comparison to the realm of the Eternal ... the realm in which belongs to God alone). Any mathemetician...

    Religion in Public Schools.

    :( is there really such a lack of trust in our children???? Islam REALLY exists in the world ... and thus, should be taught (objectively, but with the understanding of it having a right to exist) if our children are to have a better understanding of the world around them, no? ... w/out...

    Religion in Public Schools.

    I think the religious would have a lot more success in maintaining their rights to bring Bibles to school if they would hit the point home with this simple fact: the last 2,000 years, almost every area of studies/life (arts, language, literature, even mathematics) has become what it is today...

    Is There Proof God Exists????

    I have found quantum physics to be proof of the spirtual reality manifesting itself as the physical ... as well as proof that we have free will ... the possibilities are endless, until we make our choice, that is.

    Is There Proof God Exists????

    Absolutely! And this coming from one who at one time was unsure (or at least, I was unsure of the goodness of God, which now I do witness the goodness of God) ... BUT having at one time been on the end of questioning such, I doubt there is much of anything I could say would convince a person one...

    Is There Really Something Wrong with You?

    I get your point and agree with what it is you are trying to say. I think for one to break the habit of this particular thought pattern they were given at childhood, the best thing they can do (but definitely most difficult) is train their minds to redefine what is "perfection." I find more...

    I Can Not Respect A God who Allows Children to Suffer

    God depends no more upon your respect of Him than does He depend on the worship of those around you. Suffering is a part of life. That it only gets worse is mankind's fault and not the fault of God. Don't like that people are suffering? Then do something to help ease the sufferings rather than...
