Did GOD become a Man?

by UnDisfellowshipped in

did god become a man?.

some 2,013 years ago, a baby boy was born in a small town in the middle east, and he grew up and lived around 30 years before being put to death.

today, two millenniums later, over 2 billion people claim to follow that man, and they claim that this man lives, even though he died!.

ok, so you got some scriptures... but why the hell do you believe that?

Did/Does God answer your prayers?

by song19 in

in my spiritual journey, which includes trying to decide if i still believe in god anymore or not i am beginning to question if god listened to my prayers or even answered them.

i think i had a track record of praying more when i needed something.

terrible i know.

some things you wish to come true happen, some don't. if you pray for those things, some prayers are "answered" and some are not. for those "unanswered" prayers, you've always got the "god knows better" exit.

things happen, but i highly doubt they happen because of someone crossing the fingers, throwing a dime into a well or praying to ones favourite god.

chocolate

i heard a while back of a study that was done some years ago.

evidently, they took children preschool or kindergarten, don't remember which, and told them that they could have either 1 piece of chocolate now, or if they waited till the end of the day they could have two.

they kept track of which kids took the immediate chocolate and which ones held out for two.

Superfine Apostate

i'd want the chocolate now. because who knows if they'll still have chocolate when the day is over?

Who really are the Apostates?

by Honesty in

another discussion board has a thread that discusses the 'faithful and discreet slave' and asks some very probing questions of the jehovah's witnesses who post on that board:.

http://community.beliefnet.com/forums/showthread.php?t=19635.

a couple of days ago, several jehovah's witnesses who had previously posted replies began to post comments that they weren't going to respond to questions presented by the thread's originator because he left jehovah and is an apostate.. other posters who are non-jw have been responding to the jw's and asking them some very disturbing questions regarding paryer and shunning.. it appears to me that the real apostates on that thread are not the former jw's or never have been jw's.. .

i am the apostate of course. and superfine too.

What would you do if you knew...

that one of your coworkers was cheating on his spouse with another coworker?

i know the wife.

she works at the school my daughter attends.

"The greatest evil occurs when good men stand by and do nothing."

oh my, can't stand that phrase anymore. what else do you want to apply that to? reporting children playing on a lawn they shouldn't step on? badly parked cars? there is no objective good or bad. some things just have to be sorted out by the people involved.

2012: The Year The Internet Ends

http://ipower.ning.com/netneutrality.

06/01/2008 - every significant internet provider around the globe is currently in talks with access and content providers to transform the internet into a television-like medium: no more freedom, you pay for a small commercial package of sites you can visit and you'll have to pay for seperate subscriptions for every site that's not in the package.

what can we do?internet providers have realized that the only way to not lose massive amounts of customers over this is to make sure there are no alternatives, that's why all major internet providers are currently making agreements and planning to switch simultaneously somewhere in the year 2012. this is currently all going on under very strict nda's (non-disclosure agreements) because the last thing they want is the masses speaking out against it.
