    Give me a sign

    Thank you for sharing that. It would be nice if others could share events in their life they view a s a sign. I will relate a couple of things that I have experienced. I may have already shared them here on this forum but will do so again. This is more of a sign that I feel is fairly...

    Happy Birthday Jesus!

    Another year and another Birthday. Happy Birthday, again, Jesus. There seems to be a lot of problems in the world, I am sure you know about, so I won't ask for anything on your Birthday, it just doesn't seem right on your Birthday. I will just give thanks for all you have done, and let you know...

    Childhood Trauma and Psychosis

    I was hoping others would join into the conversation. I saw this post sitting without any response and hoped to get it going a little bit. I feel this is a hard subject to discuss objectively because people have very strong feeling about it. But it needs to be discussed, because so many lives...

    Childhood Trauma and Psychosis

    Not sure if you wanted a response to this or just wanted to post it for others to see. I also know mental illness is kind of a taboo field with many conflicting views. I quickly looked over what you posted but did not read to the end or look into any of the supporting sources for the article...

    I'm curious do any of the religious or spiritual people here consider masturbating bad and if so why ?

    I feel it is up to each person according to their needs and beliefs and not anyone else business what they do. I find nothing wrong with it. I know this is a bit different but kind of related. A man loses his seed by ejaculating (not orgasm), according to some spiritual teachings. A woman does...

    Any chess players here?

    I played chess when I was younger, loved the game, but cannot say I was ever very good. Now it is just to hard to find anyone to play with, so now I play Solitaire.

    Music I like

    Thank you! Most people do not like the music I like, they feel it is to dark. Anyway this was just a place I felt I could put some things from time to time.

    Cops Love To Bully & Assault Civilians

    If you are asking about a police force being completely defunded, I am not sure that happened, maybe a couple of cities replaced then current Police Forces with a Pubic Safety Department. But many cities did reduce their Police budgets, Portland , OR being one. I will post a PBS link. It has now...

    Do you think my sins are killing people?

    I agree with what Treasure Hunter is saying here, I was going to say something along those lines. You are looking down a very narrow tunnel and not getting a very good view. I cannot say that you are wrong in all you say. From what we read in the Bible it does confirm some of what you say. But...

    Cops Love To Bully & Assault Civilians

    Yes, if only that were true, 'An empty slogan'. Out here where I am at on the west cost a lot of cities have done just that; 'Defunded the Police'.

    Cops Love To Bully & Assault Civilians

    That is true of those that feel we need a good police force, that works with us instead of against us. I feel we desperately need police reform, but even more a system of public over-site of the police. And, even more so a reform of our judicial system. But what do we get, 'De-fund the Police.'

    A Christian becomes a nonbeliever

    Since you do not believe in an adversary of God in control of the world then that statement will not help you in your discussion with your internet friend. However, you did say he was Christian, so maybe it could help him. Most sects of the Jewish faith also do not believe there is a Satan. In...

    A Christian becomes a nonbeliever

    Thank you, I did not know that. Like they say you learn something new everyday! I used the WOW furbal, because they do not have the informative one anymore. Thought it fit the best with what is available.

    A Christian becomes a nonbeliever

    Hello Trailblazer, I am so sorry for both, his and your loss and all the sorrow you both have gone through. I feel Jainarayan in post #15 gave a very good answer, most likely better than any I could have given. I think most Christians feel they are God and expect him to rule the world the way...

    Evidence for God

    Is that a bad thing; Motivated Reasoning? I think most reasoning is motivated by something. It might not be the best way to go about it and we try to eliminate bias. But all theory's are based on what we feel evidence says about something and our interpretation of it. We come up with a theory...

    Evidence for God

    No, I don't think it makes you a coward, it is just what you believe. I don't think a persons beleifs are a good measure of cowardliness.

    Evidence for God

    OK, thank you; that helps me understand. However, as with theism and deism there are different views within each. But at least it lets me know in a broad stroke were you stand. You are correct that I am a theist, but I think you would be surprised that I do hold many deist views. One is that I...
