Could it be that this life is only a dim reflection of the true state of reality?

11 AnswersReligion & Spirituality2 decades agoDo you as a Christian believe that global warming is a problem directly related to your faith?
You don't have to be a Christian or even a deist to answer this. But I phrased it that way because it currently is an issue on which some churches disagree.
8 AnswersReligion & Spirituality2 decades agoSchneb: Did Constantine's vision of a bloody cross come from Jesus or a false god?
You have written that the Crusades were ordered by the popes. Were those popes inspired by a false god? Was Constantine? If he was not, then why did he make war? You wrote that the doctrine of Christianity is to love and forgive your enemies. It's obvious that Constantine (and more recently G.W. Bush) have not practiced that doctrine.
Do you personally put your faith in God or in the U.S. military? Your stated doctrine of peace directly contradicts your support for the wars.
4 AnswersReligion & Spirituality2 decades agoO Wrathpuppet, from whence cometh thy goodness?
Wrathpuppet, you describe yourself as a good person, and I believe you to be. So the obvious question arises, where does good come from, or your perception of it? To do unto others as you would have them do unto you is an obvious contradiction for you, since that came from God. So without that, what directs your moral compass? What is the ultimate source of good? For that matter, what is the ultimate source of the universe? Don't mean to burden you with these questions, but I'm curious.
(This question is for atheists, however, believers in whatever may respond to the answer.)

If Christians don't want to be criticized, why are they so critical of organizations like the Freemasons?
15 AnswersReligion & Spirituality2 decades agoFor non-believers ONLY! What is the first cause of the universe?
OK, all you folks who do not believe in a Creator:
What initiated the Big Bang? What is the source for the principles of physics, or laws of nature? Why is the universe organized rather than random? Is there a non-alien power greater than man? Answer any or all.
