    Has anyone read Contact by Carl Sagan? &

    As is usual, the book has a vast amount of twists and extra info that the movie does not explore. I would recommend it to anyone. Of course, in some cases, the movie is better than the book, as is the case with LOTR, but I'd say Contact the book is better than the movie.

    What a lovely way to put it! :)

    Praying for answers = cheating?

    I think, if the teacher is that sure of the existence of God, that he would appreciate another like-minded soul, who is sure of the existence of God. That he doesn't appreciate his own kindred spirit shows that perhaps there is a paradox there, and his mind is still struggling with God himself...

    You Know You're Pagan When...

    I can't help but wonder what I am, whether Pagan or what. I believe in Jesus, but that he came to Earth many times, in many forms, as both male and female. "Jesus" was merely one aspect of god. So I often say, "By the gods." I also believe in a Heavenly Mother and Father. So, am I Pagan? Or am I...

    Bahá'í Apocalypticism: The Concept of Progressive Revelation

    I've done the same thing myself, Ron. I often forget about threads, and I only pop in every few weeks. Good article, old or new!

    Concerns I Have, As An Adherent of Shkalya Shkh, With Misappropriation by A Druid Fellowship

    As they say, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. The person obviously admires many aspects of your religion, but wants to put their own stamp on it. Why does that bother you? Rigidity of thought is what causes religion to stagnate. Many religions are losing followers because they force...

    Islamist Rebels Abduct 12 Nuns from Orthodox Monastery

    Very good point. But unfortunately, most people blame Muslims for the actions of a few. And yet, ironically, they do not blame Christians for the actions of the Westboro Baptists. That isn't right. :( Let's just pray, to whatever God we choose, that these women will come out of this alive.

    Hi, Badran. I haven't been here in a while, but when I returned today, I noticed that I have lost nearly all of my frubals. I had around 2500, and now I have 38. Do you know if there is some reason for it, or is it just a glitch that will clear up? Thanks, buddy. Freedom

    Pope Francis: Church too focused on gays and abortion

    I was raised a Catholic but left the church at age 16. This is the first time in my life that it has even crossed my mind to return to Catholicism. I probably won't do it, but it has crossed my mind, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

    Pope Francis On Gays: 'Who Am I To Judge? We Are Brothers'

    Pope Benedict was anti-gay. He wasn't pope that long ago.

    Pope Francis On Gays: 'Who Am I To Judge? We Are Brothers'

    I find it hard to believe that Republicans ever forget about Obama, lol. However, I do agree with you. It's a shame that goodness is a magnet for suffering. People don't like anyone who is too good; it shows them up. They prefer to see people with their own flaws so they can make themselves...

    Why do Evolutionists not like to actually debate Evolution and rely on personal attacks?

    You mentioned the last universal ancestor in an earlier post, so I thought you might have a theory on LUCA. (Last Universal Common Ancestor) I find it fascinating that the last universal common ancestor is now believed by some to have been much more advanced than previously thought. This...

    Why do Evolutionists not like to actually debate Evolution and rely on personal attacks?

    Just curious, Savage, do you have a theory for or against the LUCA? I would like to hear it. (Although I am not on often lately; I've been terribly busy. I'll get back here though. :))
