obama is full of it, he's hiding the real reason?
he's hiding the real reason that we are over their, were not over their because "we can't idly stand by and watch people die by their own government" when did we grow a heart, and it's happening elsewhere, why libya? he's telling us we're over their to protect the civilians... what about all over the world, all the people suffering because of their government?
2 AnswersCurrent Events1 decade agodo we need a god to tell us what are morals should be?
do we really even need a god to tell us what are morals are, can we not figure it out on our own? do we have to be told that its bad to mistreat beings? seems like it is monkey see monkey do, if we observe life, doesn't it seem really apparent that its not nice to torture people? the do unto others saying seems to work the morals into us anyway, so is a specific written copy necessary? people... well theists can't do good without being threatened of eternal damnation? i know atheist's have no problem doing what is right without a divine deity telling them to, so what gives?
14 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoshould this be in psychology instead?
i fear lightning, so i stand under my porch. i do not fear a god, so i am not religious. why am i so curious about death? i hear people fear what they do not know. i don't fear my death, but i am curious. i'm curious because i am human, i want to know. i will know one day what happens after i die. but i am still curious. my answers for myself about death are i don't know, i've been called agnostic. shouldn't everyone alive be considered agnostic? or at least agnostic (insert your belief)?
i Guess i could be called an agnostic atheist, since i believe their are no gods.
if i'm afraid of something(lightning) i take precautions. if i know something(no gods) i don't take precaution.
is church, confessing, praying, repent, worshiping a precaution? are those that believe in a god and fear it, just taking precaution because they don't know what happens? or when they claim to know him, why do they fear him, why do what he says? because of the fear? the fear of hell? why do they fear hell if they have control of themselves? do they have control or does their god control them? if he controls them, then why send anyone to hell?
the religious fear death. that is why they cling to a god. they fear the unknown. why fear the inevitable death? why make up stories to relive yourself? you will find out no matter what. and not until then.
i don't mean to be against religious, i just don't get it and i'm trying to.
final question?: Why do people fear the inevitable? not just death, any inevitable?
7 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoi'm out of my shampoo! Aaahhhg, what can i use?

5 AnswersHair1 decade agowhat are your thoughts?
i think(notice i did not put believe) that when a person dies, only the body dies, you still have emotions, and learning capabilities. you are in a different world(realm, reality, place. take your pick) that you never noticed was their but realize now that this is where you have always been, even while you were alive you were partially in this "place"
now, i think drugs let you experience this place on accident sometimes, i think you can tap into it with meditation, i think this place is subconscious, the purest of thought/emotion.
if we cease to exist after we die then why have dreams when we are unconscious(sleeping)? if consciousness is required to have a soul (being, spirit) then how is it that we can dream?
i'm not saying that when we die, we are in dreamworld, i'm just using that as proof of other realms.
a different realm exercise: lay on your side, or tip your head sideways, or do a handstand. cease to be upright. close your eyes and imagine a cross. now is this cross sideways? no. no matter what position you are in the cross is correct because their is no up or down in your thoughts. your thoughts are not in you they are somewhere else. do you get my drift. thoughts are not attached to you. this is my example of other realms.
what do you think of this?
12 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoin need of input. all who know the kjv come this way plz?
screw all the other bibles, i don't care what the rewritten has to say. can anyone point me in the right direction? i'm confused about the satan part. where does it say that he's a bad guy? other than the Revelations(confusing part's about dragon and whatnot). where is he made out to be anything other than, god's helper. it seems like he was made to weed out god's non-followers, i mean he tests people FOR god, to make sure they are worthy of heaven. if i can't find any dirt on him, i'll have to dismiss him as a good guy working for god. and that will surely piss people off. so, should christians thank the devil for doing a good job, or did i miss something?
i must have missed something, i can't even find the "adversary of man" part i was looking so hard to find. someone help me out here, if you know the kjv well enough. thnks.

8 AnswersRock and Pop1 decade agobible differences? i need experienced readers answers?
so i'm thinking about getting this http://www.christianbook.com/Christian/Books/produ... <---Interlinear bible, but it says theirs only minor differences between it and the KJV, does anyone know what the differences are by any chance?
This is what they said:
"The Hebrew is based on the Masoretic Text and the Greek is from the Textus Receptus. The sources of the texts are documented in the preface, and are essentially the same (with some minor variations) to the Hebrew and Greek texts used by the KJV translators."
so how much of a difference is thier??? could i just get the kjv? i'm getting it as a research comparison thing, how much would i be missing out on if i got the KJV instead?
