Yesterday as I was writing a reply to Gheeghee (Seem to be the one to get me looking at concepts of God and religion right now) I went and found the complete wordings for the first three commandments (Go back two posts and read the comments there to see what was said). Well the full explanation for... Sign in to see full entry.

GOD, THE POOR FATHER FIGURE
Recently Gheeghee remarked about how I wish for my kids to treat me and how I should treat God. My first thought is that if I were to ever be as horrible a father figure as the idea of God is, I would my boys taken away form e mina heartbeat and for good reason. First we will look at God as the Old... Sign in to see full entry.

DEFYING GOD'S LAWS
Of course a major principle of religion is the rules that are handed down form whatever higher power it is that you believe in. We are all familiar with the Ten Commandments and many know that God placed down many, many more rules than that. Through out the Old Testament we that God is very serious...

THE GREATEST DOCTOR, GOD?
I am not a sports fan at all and generally do not pay attention to what is happening out side of the times when our local teams are doing real well. I have no clue as to who is who and such and rarely care about what players are injured ands such. Today on the radio on the way to work I heard that... Sign in to see full entry.

DOES GOD WANT US TO GO TO WAR?
It should be a real simple question. Jesus promoted the idea of peace. God has said 'Thou shalt not kill' even. Yet somehow even today people are going to war who claim to have a belief in God, some even claiming that they are doing God's will be going to war. Of course the idea of an eye for an eye...

AS GOD MADE US
According to some here God makes no mistakes. Any flaws that are part of us are there for a reason then. If we were born with a bad heart or some mental retardation then that is God's will and there is a greater reason for it all. And we are not supposed to ask the reason just accept that God makes...

YOU CAN'T BE SAVED THROUGH ATHEISM
I will very openly admit to that fact. Atheism is not way to 'save' one's self. JanesOpinion had a post that talked about how father who had worked at a prison saying he had never seen a person change due to becoming an atheist. Well duh. The key to atheism is that a person holds themselves fully... Sign in to see full entry.

WHY I PUT MY FAITH WHERE I DO
I am going to once more bring up my mother's accident from six years ago. This is really the main incident that showed me that the greatest and most powerful thing in the universe is family and friends. My mother almost died. You do not get any closer to death without dying. None of us are really... Sign in to see full entry.

CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE
Of course the idea of giving credit where credit is due can be a bit hard at times. I have often talked about how we create our reality and create our own personal God. We also create where credit is due in some cases. Things happen in life that just happen. People wish to give a source for these... Sign in to see full entry.

WHAT LEVEL OF SIN IS REALLY BAD?
Gomedome started talking about how he know many Christians who have gone and gotten a divorce while claiming to be believers and yet the act of divorce itself is a great sin that does tear part families. If you are really a believer in God then divorce is breaking an oath to God itself. Now I... Sign in to see full entry.
