WHY IS THE BODY MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE SOUL?

With the whole Terri Schiavo thing going on one of my general questions comes back in to play. Since it is the religious right who seems to have the confused idea that there is some purpose to keeping a body alive just for the sake of keeping it alive, I am completely lost as to what they see as...

ARE WE ALL ASPECTS OF GOD?

Let's take the idea that God is everything. The entirety of creation is with-in God. We are products of that whole. So what if we are the break down of the mind that is God? What if God broke up his own being to form the souls and mind of life in general? This is an idea that I have wondered about... Sign in to see full entry.

DOES GOD ACTUALLY A HAVE PLAN?

Believers write a lot of things off as being 'part of God's plan' it seems. Death is the most common event attributed to this. We also see other forms of loss and hardship as being called 'part of God's plan'. Instead of accepting hard times as just being hard times, believers seem to often go for...

BY SAVING CHEETAHS ARE WE FIGHTING GOD?

I am watching the show Wild Kingdom. This episode is looking at the cheetah and our attempts at saving the animal from extinction. Cheetahs and dying out, partially due to man, but mostly due to genetic issue that started well before man came into their territory. It looks like cheetahs really... Sign in to see full entry.

IS GOD LOVE?

I have been told that to experience love you are experiencing God. I do not see the logic in that myself. The whole idea comes from the circular reasoning that is very often seen in religious beliefs. God is love because in the Bible God claims to be love and we know the Bible is true because in the...

WHY DO SO MANY SEEM TO WISH FOR ME TO LIE?

Yet again someone has brought up the question of 'Why do you not just believe in God?' They go and treat the concept of belief as if it were some simple thing that people can just decide on a whim. The idea that I simply CAN NOT believe in God goes over their heads. For them faith is something... Sign in to see full entry.

THE END IS COMING, SO LET'S DESTROY THE WORLD BEFORE THAT HAPPENS

It amazes me at what people will use their religious beliefs to justify. From what I understand there is an active conservative, Christian mentality that is back-up their agenda to destroy nature for profit. The logic is that somehow by destroying the environment they are helping to prepare thins... Sign in to see full entry.

OF FAITH, HOPE AND LOVE

I am being told that these three things are the most important aspects of life and that I will not disagree with. Without such things life does seem to be empty. It just seems like some people do not understand that people can find faith, hope and love without belief in God. I have great faith in... Sign in to see full entry.

SO WHAT DOES GOD VALUE THE MOST?

If we break down the Biblical ideas of what God punishes man for and what God holds as being important we are left with a very interesting look into what values are most important to God and we can see this reflected in the practices of a good number of believers. Despite all that is claimed, God... Sign in to see full entry.

GOD DOESN'T GIVE SECOND CHANCES

Once more we will look at the idea of Hell and the claims that God is not the one who sends us to hell, but ourselves. As with many of my posts on God I am going to look at how I parent my children and see how it compares to what God does. Here is what I have claimed in the past. God is a poor...
