You could sign up by practicing firearms at a local gun range. Let the pattern of holes in your target be thine signature!
Why does your religion have so many addicts?I have seen no evidence that other religions can do this. Do you have any evidence to support your theory?
With all due respect to the Admin of this forum, I would like to recommend to remove all non sense answers made on this forum. Religion is a very serious matter. It is a matter of life and death. At least for my own understanding.
To: dyanaprajna2011. May I quote "There is only the right religion that is right for you, which may not be right for the next guy".
My question is then who is right? Are everybody right? Is this sound reasoning? If this is our logic, then there is no right and wrong.
To: Muffled. "The right religion is whatever God wants it to be".
But it seems every religion defers in what the God they believe wants. But still they are all right?
Why does your religion have so many addicts?
Seems that the ratio is unusually high, compared, say, to mine.
Perhaps your religion simply attracts very flawed characters? Be stronger.
It makes sense for a sick person to go to a hospital when the doctor has done all he can. That is why there are so many sick people in a hospital.
As Jesus said you will probably refer to an old saying "physician heal thyself." The whole object of having a higher power is to have Him do what I can't do.

It's better to simply be healthy. People in the hospital were unable to remain healthy. It's not something to brag about.
Also, I would point out you mention the physician addage out of context; allowing Jesus to help you get over an addiction which other people can get over themselves, is essentially saying 'physician, you cannot heal yourself, you need a chief of pediatrics to heal you.. even though you're a doctor'.
Shame it hasn't been done then,theres plenty of sick people in the world both pysically and mentally.
Of course it is but the reality is that sin is spiritual unhealthiness and everyone has it to some degree. The person saying that he doesn't need church is like a person saying he doesn't need a doctor. It is a recipe for disaster along the lines of someone thinking he doesn't need to obey the rules of the road.
And some people do all of these things well.That is relative. Some people can handle getting out of addictions better than others but be terrible at preserving personal relationships. The reality is that there isn't a person who doesn't need some kind of help. Then there are those who think they can handle their addiction and end up dead because they were just deceiving themselves.
No, that's really not reality at all.
The reality is you are part of a system which you believe everyone needs. As I pointed out it appeals to addicts, as shown by your example. You want everyone else to be an addict, too, because that lessens the onus of your own addiction. By spreading the responsibility to everyone, it dilutes how bad it is, for you personally; 'everyone does it!'
No, really, we don't.
And some people do all of these things well.
I don't need any help.
I certainly don't need this kind of help.
The reality is, you're an addict. You gave up some drug, for Jesus-drug.
I have never been an addict.
If you don't like the fact that I'm strong, and you're weak, then grow stronger. Don't expect me to weaken myself to make us even.
It is amazing how you think you can determine for me what I want. I do not want people to be addicts. I am not comparing myself to other people. In Jesus there is no more onus for me.
I don't believe this to be true. Each person is responsible for his own behavior. I can't make anyone more responsible than he already is.
In that case you would be perfect but God has made it clear that no-one is.
I suppose that you are speaking metaphorically. Yes. I gave up sin by obtaining a savior from sin.
I don't mind a bit if you perceive yourself as stronger because I am not comparing myself to you. Now that I have jesus I am as strong as I need to be. You think you are but you are only deceiving yourself.
there r many religion in the world, but surly there r only one right religion, but how could we reach the right believe, the right path?
Answering in order, as I don't do colors:
It's not that you want everyone to be an addict, it's that you want YOUR addiction to be not as bad and as weak, as it was. If there are many addicts, you're not that unusual. It is nonetheless a psychological activity that, for you, dilutes your own responsibility.
Stop. Im not perfect. Im simply better. Much better. Quit your lame perfection fallacy. And, what the God of Addicts claims means no nevermind to me.
No, Im NOT speaking metaphorically. For you, Jesus is the drug that takes over your life in exchange for whatever chemical drug you gave up. It's still just as consuming and deleterious to you, you simply have moved on to a new favorite. You didnt give up sin at all. You keep sinning. But then again, 'sin' is an illusion you describe to yourself in order to ignore that it's just weakness. Sin puts you in a fairy tale where the creator of the entire universe cares what you personally do and think. It's just another drug haze.
No, with obvious evidence I AM stronger. I have never fallen prey to your weaknesses. You wish it that I am equal to you, and self-deluded on top of that, so that somehow you can eek some modicum of superiority out of your miserable life. You are the one deceiving yourself.
But let's face more facts: at some point this will be deleted to protect you.
