RE: who belive in God

You mean you have never sinned? you must be the only one ...

RE: who belive in God

Not necessarily.... some bible quoting types have little goodness in their heart.. you will know a person who has Christ(God) in their heart as you will know them by their fruits... in fact... even Satan believes in God.. is not enough to simply believe in God... though if one has an open heart and mind and is open to learning... believing in God can be a very important step towards salvation...

RE: Need some help here.

Ha ha.. emotionally we can all revert to being childlike at times.... last Easter was the first time my mum didn't get us all chocolate Easter eggs.. just the grandchildren... anyway... when I saw a few in the kitchen I immediately went to open one and tuck in until my mum and my sis said it wasn't for me.... it stung I can tell ya... im 35+ but Im still my parents 'child'... I think we can cling onto that a bit like a security blanket.. it gives us a sense of calm knowing that no matter how crazy the world gets, you still have the 'normality'(relative of course!! ) of home... so changes as big as what you are all going through now... are hard.. and they will take time.. just move forward with your life... ur daughters ultimate concern for YOUR wellbeing will bring it all back together.. when she's ready

RE: Need some help here.

Alabame is right.. its her grief and her issue (however understandable) which she is projecting on you... maybe tell her that you have no intention of rushing into things.. and you need company and companianship like everyone else... which u do you are only human... and its even worse when u have been fortunate enough to have a fabulous marraige.. the hole is so much larger...

She will come around... ultimately she loves you... so her concern for your happiness as opposed to her grief (and desire to keep the status quo) will eventually sink in!!

Best of luck..

RE: The Federal Reserve (FED) Is A PRIVATELY OWNED Corporation!

Well if the end IS coming.. if the evil forces are building up to this and have designed this environment of control to entrap us (as prophesied in the Bible) then maybe the END as prophesied in Bible will make people think and ask questions....... maybe its time to look UP ...and maybe have a read of the Bible and see what it says...

Just a thought......

people are really starting to see the signs..... the Bible said many would.... are we going to do something about it.... first step.. ourselves...

RE: The Federal Reserve (FED) Is A PRIVATELY OWNED Corporation!

... the thing is we have to try and wean ourselved off this world, work on becoming debt free and staying that way by leading more basic lives... a change of attitude could be a step in the right direction for us.. perhaps...:thinking:

RE: To Every Guy That's......

....I know what went wrong with us all... ego I think...

RE: Is it acceptable to tell a complete stranger that she is beautiful?

Ha ha... at least you didn't say...'Hi....u have beautiful eyes..' that's what they all say ...

Hiya ... yeah.. decided to take a break for a while.... how are you??

RE: are healings real

God really works in mysterious ways... I read a book yesterday 'I dared to call him Father' Bilquis Sheikh... amazing story.. she didn't even go looking for God (Jesus) he came looking for her.... she was a high ranking Muslim, from a very privelaged background.... her family were all devout Muslims... she was practicing... not devout... until one day she came across a paragraph in the Quran relating to Jesus the prophet. something spurned her on so she read a little of an old Bible she had one of her servants get her which was in ancient Hebrew or Urdu or something so she could only understand bits... so she left it... soon after she had two incredible vivid dreams.. one where Jesus visits her house and has meals with her.. the other she was looking for Jesus.. and was brought to a mountain top where a man by the name of 'John the Baptist' pointed her the way... she had never even heard of John the Baptist... this story is from 60 years ago.... even reading a Bible would have brought about severe castigation... asking questions possible persecution... really extraordinary story!! have you read it?

RE: are healings real

We have the free will to choose how we live our lives and we have the free will to choose God... things like healing etc come from the Holy Spirit, i.e. God..

I have got a challenge for you B.... just as an experiment... ask God for the Holy Spirit, anyone who asks the Holy Spirit of God into their lives won't be denied it... you have to ask with your heart..

I challenge you.. try...as a scientific experiment if you like..

How you will know you have received is you will get a sense of peace, increased clarity, you may have vivid dreams, inspirations, or receive thoughts that have a guiding quality, which you suspect are not coming from you..

Just try it.. I dare you.. God speaks to the most unlikely of people.

RE: God vs. Science

Dunno think 'evil' is a bit more complex than that... it baffles me though... that way of thinking when God is so abundantly present in everything we see ...

Pure evil at the very least would be the absence of any good... I am sure the adverage person.. Athiest or not is not completely devoid of good..

RE: God vs. Science

you did READ this post didn't you?...

"I am astonished by the audacity to tell such lies about me. From the viewpoint of a Jesuit priest I am, of course, and have always been an atheist." "I have repeatedly said that in my opinion the idea of a personal God is a childlike one.You may call me an agnostic, but I do not share the crusading spirit of the professional atheist whose fervor is mostly due to a painful act of liberation from religious indoctrination received in youth."

Einstein is here, lambasting a Jesuit priest for having the 'audacity' to call him an Athiest... he goes on to say that while he views the idea of a personal God a 'childlike one'... he emphasises that he does not share the 'crusading spirit of a professional atheist, whose fervour is mostly due to a painful act of liberation from religious......'

RE: God vs. Science

I HAVE my belief because of my own personal experience, which serves as evidence to me...I wasn't always Christian... nor was I enticed into a Church, or influenced in any way(by any third party).... my decision to become Christian happened quite naturally based on a long period of study and reflection.. as well as certain things which have happened, which made it impossible for me to view anything else as the truth...

Crotalus.. apart from quoting sources.. you are a person who seems to have very little to contribute of your own... ok as a 'scientific' mind you should know that knowledge and science evolves... and it is evolving in the direction of a higher being.... ur so called 'knowledge' is based on the limited materials you have read (and before you get defensive) you cannot have read them all.. my view (like the views of HD and others) are based on empirical evidence, own deductions as well as the materials we have read.... prior to making my choice I read up on numerous religions and theories...

U clearly have a very inflated view of yourself.. this is a dangerous viewpoint.... as someone who clearly 'knows it all' will not be open to new information...

RE: God vs. Science

Something tells me that even if Jesus himself appeared to them they would explain it away...

Don't be disheartened HD... only 10% of people who read these threads actually post... and ur eloquent and informative posts are bound to cause some to at least think..

I know my experiences also..

My granny had the gift of prophesy and Jesus spoke to her, and translated tongues for her... many won't believe this but it is true!!... she also had the gift of healing.... and the amazing thing is she was sooo humble about it.. none of her family even really knew the extent of it... we only found out after she died...

Keep up the good work... I for one feel privelaged to know the truth... I will continue speaking it... people with open ears and hearts will listen.. people who don't.. well.. as I said.. if Jesus himself appeared to them they would explain it away.... free will

RE: God vs. Science

RE: When women are looking for a man to marry , Not date . What matters most ?

Love, friendship, compatibility, common goals and outlooks... the kind of stuff that helps a relationship last... IMO

RE: This is just a horrible and sick thing this guy did. He should rot in jail. (Disturbing,warning!!)

They will never bring home a murder charge because of the very high level of proof required... actual intent to kill had to be proved.. the existence of an underlying psychological condition would make it difficult to establish.... however a manslaughter charge should be able to stick... particularly if there was a pattern of domestic violence... dunno... I perhaps more than many appreciate the role of mental illness in crime due to my line of work.. but even so... mental illness cannot and should not be a full defence unless.. that person has lost all mental faculty.. as in the case of psychosis or schizophrenia...

Anyway.... how are u hun??

RE: This is just a horrible and sick thing this guy did. He should rot in jail. (Disturbing,warning!!)

extenuating circumstances certainly should be taken into account, but to say that someone has no responsibility AT ALL because they suffer from Bi-Polar is taking it a step too far..... sure I defend people, but if someone is caught red handed and all the evidence points to there having committed the offence, then apart from admitting evidence as to circumstances which serve to mitigate... and possibly reduce a potential sentence... I am not a miracle worker... no criminal defence lawyer is....despite what you see on tv...

I'll bet you know all about PMT... like you know it all about everything else

RE: This is just a horrible and sick thing this guy did. He should rot in jail. (Disturbing,warning!!)

absolutely... it would be like letting a child killer off cause he didn't get enough hugs as a child.... sorry... if someone severly hurts a person... there are consequences... the only time I would let the insanity defence stick is where the person literally were not of their mind.. like when they have schizophrenia or something.. or severe psychosis.. and then, they would need to be locked in an institution for their own safety (and of others) and treatment...until such time that they are in good mental health...

My parents are seperated.. and I occasionally get bad PMT... would I be justified setting someone alight because I forgot to take my primrose oil capsules and a paracetemol... ... what is this world coming to... u set someone alight.. u do the time.. simple as..

RE: This is just a horrible and sick thing this guy did. He should rot in jail. (Disturbing,warning!!)

This is true... most violent criminals have SOME reason.. be it emotional, psycholical.. drugs... etc.. as a criminal lawyer I have a certain amount of understanding, and accept that these things need to be taken into account... having said that though.. it is totally erroneous (of crotalus) to say that this man had NO responsibility.... rubbish... people suffering from bi-polar suffer enough stigma... justifying this mans actions under the heading of bi-polar, is not doing any of these people any favours... his bi-polar condition... I am betting is only one aspect of what was going on.... I would put money on the fact that he was a controlling abusive partner to boot... JMV

RE: This is just a horrible and sick thing this guy did. He should rot in jail. (Disturbing,warning!!)

He was bi-polar....lots and lots of people who are bi-polar and they don't go around doing things like that.... I would say something if he has a sever form of paranoid schizophrenia or indeed if he has a psychotic episode.. he did have a degree of responsibility... maybe diminished due to his heightened emotional state.. but he did have a degree of responsibility ...

I am guessing from the fact that she was contemplating leaving him... that there was alot of stuff going on prior to the main event...

RE: Time for another of my "kinder, more "gentle" questions...

Self evaluation.... leading to possible insight, which will ultimately (or at the very least potentially) improve our prospects of future sucessful relationships...not a bad thing surely...

Bad things happen... sure...we make mistakes.. sure.... but isn't part of the purpose of these (lives ups and downs ) supposed to teach us something.... there has to come a point when we stop chasing rainbows... when we repeatedly discover there is no gold laying there.. JMV

RE: Time for another of my "kinder, more "gentle" questions...

Relationships and 'easy' in the same sentence........ No relationship is easy, not even parent v child, sibling v sibling... friend + friend.. all relationships require effort... I think Hfinanz is onto something.... I think our modern culture encourages a disposable attitude to everything including people.... granted some are justified i.e. violence etc... but how many relationships end because of less serious reasons..?? or indeed because a third party comes along.. promising refreshment and exitement...
