I take a lot from the Catholic Mass, but I have found the most joyful times of worship, are when I worship together with people of people from many denominations. Churches Together in our town meet regularly for prayer together. We pray for each other, we pray for the needs of our town, and we...

Jesus died for us, does that mean Jesus loves us as he loves himself?

I truthfully wonder how going to war can be justified. Once war has been declared against you, then you have the right to self defence. I have been struggling to think of a war, that I would consider is justified. Can you think of a war were the aggressor was justified, to start the war, and why?

The idea with therapy, is the hope someone else can help solve our problems. When we walk away after a session, we still own our problems ,no one else can solve them for us. Sometimes, just being able to talk openly with someone, helps to share the burden. Many years ago I called on a customer...

I have not had a very positive experience with counselling in the past. I went with a friend who needed help, she had to wait several months for the first appointment, and had different counsellors each time. I was very conscious they were clock watching. Whilst it was free, I am not sure how...

I wonder what Covid did for our mental health. In the UK, the government kept saying how Covid could affect our mental health. It almost felt, like the government was giving us permission to almost self diagnose, if we weren't feeling well, it must be mh, we need therapy. We might be stuck with...

There is only 'One God', but many paths to this same God. The same God hears all our prayers despite our differences. Humanity needs a greater interfaith understanding, so thank you site owners and moderators, for keeping this platform running, we need more of what you are doing in this world.

Our daughter has had epilepsy, from the age of about five, she is now forty two and still has regular seizures, some quite serious. She has collapsed in the road, dropped a kettle of boiling water over herself, she has many cuts and bruises from falls. She missed a lot of schooling, and is...

If you read through the Old Testament, God often works miracles with the remnant. When God is in control big or small numbers are not a problem. I like the story of Gideon in Judges 7 - 1. Gideon is facing a formidable army, and God says, you have too many soldiers, if you win, you will boast...

Now I am older, I try and live my life with thought of; what I can leave for my children and grandchildren. How can I make their lives better! We seem powerless to influence anything meaningful in this world, I can only hope that God will put all our mess right in a greater good life after...

Atheist Believe what they want science to say, and without real evidence. There is no hard evidence to show how the universe and life started by natural causes. So your science hangs on beliefs and conflicting theories. We have had this conversation a few times.

Belated Happy Birthday Tony, what's it like being over 21 now! :) I hope all is well with your wife.

Don't forget atheists, they like to preach too.

May you all be blessed on the Twin Holy Birthdays.

But for every species that require male, female and penetration, how is this possible. Supposing the male bits develop first, but if there is no female with all her bits, there will be no next generation. Virtually everything to do with life, needs several things to happen at once. Evolution...

Quantity and speed is not the problem. Producing new cells, and new mutations then organizing a trillion cells into all the body parts is the real problem.

I have a fascination with maths and design. You have not suggested a path, how single cell life from 3.8 billion years ago, could evolve into species with a trillion plus cells. Random mutation does not seem a viable explanation. It would need a million incremental steps, and each step on...

My sincere apologies for the post this morning, I wrote it rather quickly before going out. My mum, in essence, asked us to do for her, what the nurse did for your dad. I can understand how this would help your dad, and how your family would feel more at peace, knowing his suffering would be...

You have posed a real dilemma, but I wonder how God sees this. Millions of children are left to die from abject poverty, starvation and preventable disease. Are they given the choice of food or a quick and painless death? Moral problems trouble most of us. Here is another story. My mum went...

Mathematically, how could evolution happen without God? 3.8 billion years ago, single cell life emerged. Organisms then had to increase incrementally in size to thousands, millions, billions and to trillions of cells. Supposing it took a million increases, to go from single cell life to a...
