Altho I understand what you are saying, and even agree with much of it, I have to get nitpicky about the absolutism of your words. Purpose? Are you sure that is the word you wanted? Maybe result? They? You include non-denominationals such as Baha'i, and Scientology? You include faiths such as...

No offense to my namesake but I probably would be a hobbit. In fact, Id probably be Samwise Gamgee. Im more of a support person than a leader, Im definetly into eating, and growing things, and I love his choice in women. :) Gandalf Parker

Ahhh I see. So you are bothered that God is unprovable. Well until we can fully understand the 10th dimension, or possibly more important the 11th one (Quantum Physics) then I dont see this as a problem. Until we feel we fully understand 42 then anything which cannot be understood, proven, or...

The problem is that Im not sure if anything is ever proven beyond a reasonable doubt due to the variability of "reasonable". Well he can be faithful to his faith as you are. That doesnt preclude either of you trying to see the others viewpoint.

Im half-a-century plus a year.

Actually in this case it doesnt matter. Its a scientific proof. The only requirement is that our meager little minds can conceive of it. With unlimited time, space, and no limits on creation then all things would exist. Therefore it would apply equally to gods, demons, unicorns, and jabba the...

Yeah he was always overly enthusiastic and childish. People used to think it was charming. Now they think its weird and blame scientology. I think he was always that way. Not even scientologists say "hey look at Tom Cruise" :) Its also interesting that of all of the celebs that have tried it...

And the computer guru says "Google thyself". And a student asked "but why master?". It was then we were told "For to google thyself is to know thyself, and to see thyself as others see you". It is a wise wisdom. Buy it. Wear it. Give it to others. Google thyself : Odd Thotz : CafePress.com...

If someone wanted a pseudo-scientific answer then it might be considered that spirit guides are a meditative way to speak to your subconscious. The placement of the subconscious into an animal form would give it the ability to suggest but not be considered as smarter and infallible. It might be...

If in fact the benefits of belief were to include the lack of stress of the individual, then an extended benefit within a herd would be the lack of stress in the herd. At one level it would be the shifting of duties to others as far as fight-or-flight decisions freeing the mass from continual...

No offense Tao_Equus but did you read what he wrote? Im fairly versed in science and I saw no problem in it. By the way Islamis4u: the Big Bang is being replaced with an ever expanding universe (a new Quantum Theory version) altho I dont see a reason why that would change what you wrote.

I kept hearing that also so I looked into it. L. Ron Hubbard is widely rumored to have said "The way to make a million dollars is to start a religion." There are also variant rumors. For some reason, this is often mentioned on Usenet. One form of the rumor is that L. Ron Hubbard made a bar...

Im on many forums and I also see "muslim terrorists" used too often. And stupid question like "why are all suicide bombers muslim". As far as I can tell they are usually referring to the middle east. And if they are going to stereotype it would be more sensible to say "arab" than "muslim". I...

@path_of_one Im sorry. I didnt mean to provide that as more information about their belief in aliens. In fact Im much more likely to believe that its an overblown thing that the kids like to repeat than actual fact. I just dont see CEOs, and professors, and scientists, and congressmen going that...

I see previous mentions of quantum theory. The new theory of the beginning of everything in Quantum Physics involves two "realities" (called membranes or just branes) touch. Like a pin hole in a balloon, a huge influx of matter and energy surged into the empty brane (ours) causing what used to...

@Daur: My military training taught me not to look at things as right or wrong, but as propaganda. Probably some truth but worded in a specific slant. Such as "information being used against them after they left". Scientology is not the type of religion where confession clears the record. Its big...

Pardon me for jumping in late and not reading all of the previous posts. I like to toss psuedo-scientific support into things like this. Science has often proven the power of belief, or faith. However in the usual tactics of science they tend to rename it and put it on their side of the fence...

There is some very interesting things breaking loose in the Quantum Theory fields in regard to angels. And in fact for many magics, miracles, and even God. Im going to be interested in how "branes" and "10+1 dimensions" plays out in the next few years before someone is brave enough to broach the...

Eventually the whole world stood up. But for many reasons other than speaking out against nazi terror. Its a shame that the US took as long as they did to act. But on the other hand its a shame when they act abit quick.

This sounds really interesting. I would love to see some dissertations on differences between this translation on the more popular western ones. Some key words in the King James version could stand to have another opinion offered on what was originally meant IMHO
