I had a somewhat similar youth to the OP from the sounds of it. I was raised Christian and I still derive the majority of my moral do's and don't from Christianity. When I was younger I felt like I could communicate with God. Not always, and not self initiating but I definitely felt a strong...
You are one of the more developed christians out of the categories that I was describing. Though I have to admit seeing all those quotes from the bible back to back reminded me why I'm glad I left Christianity(no offence to you at all, I'm glad you know your stuff well), just realized how...
That seems an arrogant(or just paradoxy) thing to believe in my opinion. So the guy holding the ak47 praying to bring justice to a tyrant of a country and is meek enough to ask for it is just as effective as the guy praying for safety before we go out and conduct combat operations? If that...
I'm new to this site, but I think I can adequately answer this because I spent alot of my time in christianity as an apologetic-(christian term)someone who researches their religion and can put a damn good fight(debate) for it. First of all, I won't speak for exorcism or consecration because I...
I constantly find myself having similar philisophical stances to that of a Christian, but yet for theological reasons, I dropped the religion along time ago. I am curious though as to what specific parts of the bible and/or theological doctrine of christianity do Christian Wiccans subscribe to.
order of importance to the catholic church at the time, I would guess. The Father being the creator, the son being the savior, and the holy spirit being an entity that embodies divinity in human beings. So it is a all about importance in my opinion.
thanks, I am very excited about these, more so then with most books as I'm not the biggest reader. I only read things of interest to me, religious, political, pertaining to things like astrophysics, or law(yeah, I'm getting a bachelor's degree in criminal justice through online schooling) but...
Well, activity in the forum seems to be down so I decided to make a thread about these 3 books I ordered yesterday. They look promising, looking for any feedback at all about em, I'd like to know if they were worth my investment from people with more experience in the matter
Wicca for...
Yes, the base here is reasonably sized, and as a result of the fact that there are less then maximum personel here(due to the fact that america is being pulled out), there are places where I can be alone.
Yeah, that's one thing I always loved about wicca, the fact that they don't try to shove...
Ok, well, for anyone who read my introduction thread, you know my story, that I was 17 when I abandoned christianity which I had been raised to believe and accepted at the age of 13. I then went in search of other religions. I'd say I know a sufficient amount behind the various theologies of...
Nvm, googled it, and got this: ok, the link didn't work because I need to have posted 15 times on the site, but I'm sure you know what I'm referencing{the only thing that comes up on google if you type aeya +ourd in english and it is on this site} {post 17}
Is that your personal belief system...
My name Is Jeremiah, I was raised Christian, at the age of 13 I embraced it as my own, I was very active in the church, and participated in many church functions. At the age of 17, due to my logic first personality, I was forced to drop the religion, reasoning that the concept of Hell, was such...
