    Reincarnation: not RIP but BRB?

    If we keep getting reincarnated into new bodies forever and ever, what happens when the sun turns into a red giant and vapourizes the earth billions of years from now? I mean, there'll be no place to reincarnate back to, will there? Or on a smaller time scale, what if a nuclear accident or...

    What happened to me?

    What 'interpretation' is needed? It's in simple plain english isn't it? Sorry I don't have time to cover all the other points you raised, but if you care to post them one by one, i can deal with them one by one..:)

    Christianity and the charade of human life

    If there's a pit at the bottom of your garden you warn your kids not to play near it out of your love for them, and God warns us about hell for the same reason, it's not a threat. The nuclear core of the Christian ethic is- "Love God, love one another, feed the hungry, house the homeless, clothe...

    What happened to me?

    Many people have thrown themselves open to the whole range of spiritual frequencies on an "Is there anybody there?" approach and went on base their life on the "messages" they received, or even formed strange sects and cults. Hence Jesus's warning that we should tune in only to him because only...

    I need your help please

    Jesus is rooting for you, he said family breakups are bound to happen if people turn to Christianity instead of sticking with their families traditional religion and he knows the pain this will cause. That's why he gives them these words of comfort- "Whoever comes to me I'll never turn away..Say...

    Purpose of life for atheists/agnostics ?

    Firstly, there's a lot of suffering of various kinds which is preventable, brought about by humans themselves (wars, famine, accidents etc) The bible doesn't try to say life is easy- ("All creation groans in pain from the beginning til now") so think of life as a Special Forces selection test-...

    Do we give enough respect to modern philosophers?

    I like the story about a Philosophy professor who held up a pencil and said to his class- "I want you to write an essay full of deep meaningful insights and speculations on the nature of reality concerning this pencil, and I'll give top marks to the one I like best" After half an hour he...

    So which church is a cult?

    Jesus said people are like trees, and that we can tell they're rotten if their fruit is rotten. So if any so-called 'christian' group (including the major organised religions) produces bad fruit by deviating from his teachings in any way, they're rotten to the core. Remember, he said that many...

    No big bang...

    From what I gather there's evidence for a big bang in the form of leftover background radiation, plus the fact that the universe is expanding. Here's my theory- "God wote the 'creation/evolution program', then snapped his fingers to start it. THAT was the big bang..;)

    Is this not logical?

    When Jesus said- "Love God, love one another, feed the hungry, house the homeless, clothe the destitute, tend the sick, visit the prisoners, look after the poor" it was as simple to understand then as it is now, and is the same no matter what language its been translated into..:)

    Is Spiritualism really modern.

    It's been around since ancient biblical times, possibly longer, but the bible absolutely forbids it because there's no way of knowing if what 'comes through' is an angel, or a demon pretending to be one.

    Were the Wicker Man films Hollywood baloney?

    Hi guys, i've always had a soft spot for pagans ever since they burnt Edward Woodward in a wicker man, he thoroughly deserved it for his bad acting and for having too many 'w's' in his name. I've often wondered what pagans think of the film (and the Nicholas Cage remake), were they fairly...

    What happened to me?

    Which God were you praying to? In a sense, praying/meditating is like tuning a radio to the correct channel, but there's a lot of gunk out there you have to avoid..

    Can belief in a higher power be combined with Evolution

    I like what Senator John McCain said- "When I hike the Grand Canyon at sunset I can see evolution, but I can also see the hand of God there"

    Thinking too much about issues of faith

    Depends what faith you mean. i don't think you'll find any true Christian who isn't calm, confident, self-assured and fearless..:)
