As long as people accept the mere presence of God, any form of God, that's fine with me. I don't care how they worship, even Buddhists, Muslims, Jews, and Hindus are okay. It doesn't really matter; we're all people and you should respect everybody, so that is what I try to do.

However, I do draw the line at Paganism and Satanism. I can't even begin to imagine why on earth anybody would want to worship the Devil! I sort of tend to think of Paganism as a "made-up" religion. I hope I do not offend any body, these are my own opinions.

My brother used to drive busses cross country and he was always driving church groups around. Last week, he said that he had driven all over the country looking for Jesus and had not yet found Him. We thought this was very funny. I think my brother accepts God's Presence, but no longer believes in organized religion.


I congratulate you for going Catholic God forgives you for your sin of protestantism :)

Is this a joke? Cause I found it kind of offensive, especially with all the IRA bombings etc happening recently.

No joke, I am truly sorry if I have offended anyone, I was raised Catholic and have very strong beliefs, I have a tendency to voice my opinions in a strong way. Like many aspies I don't think before i speak/act Im sorry

I like being a Christian, it's nice to know that when I feel like I am unaccepted I have a God who loves me........regardless. I was raised Baptist, my husband was raised Catholic. We both strayed for a long time away from our faiths. When we dedicated our lives back to God we were in the Jesus movement. My parents didn't care that I ended up at a different church, but my husbands parents were not happy. My husband and I met at a Bible College, and have been together ever sense. In spite of our differences, I love my in-laws and wouldn't trade them. I am going to start going to their Churches Catholic Charismatic meetings. I use to go to one when I was in high school. So much fun. Good people.I don't know if my in-laws will join me, but hey...they are cool with us now, and know we are not anti Catholic. We love our Jesus, and thats what matters, they pray for us, and we pray for them. Sometimes we pray together. And God does answer prayers.

hmmm, is it not interesting how-

The Apple tree of sin was placed in eden just to tempt what was supposed to be perfect to begin with? perhaps it was meant to be that humans was to eat of this apple in the first place? and if so why punish Adam and eve for what was first planed in the first place? if god is perfect and knows everything even whats in someones heart then he/she would know that they would eat of the apple in the first place, and if so why tempt them in the first place but instead make them the way we was meant to be in the first place? did he/she just want a reason to pick on us and blame us for something? perhaps his/her own mistakes? oh thats right god don't make mistakes does he/she/it?!?!.

also

If Adam and eve only had two sons where did the sons get their wives? was the girls apes? or did they bread their mother for more children? its not Adam's children (girls) for if it was then the rest of his children would have been noted wouldn't they? and if he did have more children that was not noted then wouldn't those girls be the sisters of his other two sons?
hmmm incest and bestiality, are not those sins them selves? perhaps Adam and eve was not the only first ones god created, but then again if thats the case where did the others come from and why was they not mentioned? and that would mean that Adam and eve was not the first wouldn't it? because if they was then where the extra wives come from?
was others made from the clay of the earth as well but not mentioned in the bible? and if so what was their sins to be rejected from the garden of eden them selves? or was they not given a chance to be in eden because of Adam and Eve messing up? and if thats the case why blame them for others mistakes and if they made mistakes why make more imperfections?

Alas, this does not help with where the dinosaur's bones came from, perhaps they was just placed to throw us off track, and if so is that not a lie in its self? god sinning?!? hmmmm.

:twisted:
