Infodumps form the Universe
I just had a two-month long infodump from the Universe. Now I think I must be processing the information subconsciously. It is painful to think about the information now, when I was wholly consumed by it for weeks on end.
Now I feel quite restless, nothing can hold my attention for long, nothing really interests me. I have several notebooks and loose-leaf pages full of notes I took during the infodump. I can't process it consciously right now.
Does this happen to you? -
John 14:12
"12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father." -John 14:12
In this verse, Jesus says that those who believe in him will not only do similar miracles that he's done, but will also do greater works. Some of these works include:
Turning water into wine
Feeding thousands of people with 5 loaves and 2 fish
Healing leprosy
Raising people from the dead
Walking on water and... -
White Supremacy in Christianity
do you think white supremacists use christianity to shield their racism and bigotry?
if so, how does it align with christianity or deter from it? would jesus be amused or approve? -
Praying to God for self benefit
To me, prayer to Allah for something i "need" is not a righterous way to pray.
Prayer to gain advice or wisdom about our situation is right.
What you think prayer is? -
Guided evolution?
I am familiar with the idea of "guided evolution"
That humans are the product of evolution, but that evolution has been "guided" so that intelligent humans ended up being evolved
The fact of evolution is thus reconciled with the notion that God created humans - that he created us through evolution
Is this something people believe in?
It makes sense to me -
What does "one" mean?
Deuteronomy 6:4
Hear, Israel: Yahweh, our God, is one Yahweh.
James 2:19
You believe that God is one, you do right; also the demons believe and tremble.
What does it mean when the Bible says that God is one? -
The nature of your personal relationship with God.
This is inspired by another thread, my apologies.
I think insight might be gained into some of our differences, and perhaps similarities, if we look into the personal relationships each of us has with God, of Gods, if indeed we do have one. I realise some theists have no personal relationship.
Firstly, I could never yell at Siva. That makes absolutely no sense to me. How could I yell at someone who brings me so much Joy? Yes, I'll capitalise Joy to stress that the Joy of being in the... -
I cried out to God last night
Last night I was at the end of my rope so I cried out to God, or should I say I screamed at Him in abject anger and told Him I need help, so now I will find out if He comes through or not. Usually I just scream at God and call Him names, but this time I asked for help, so the ball is now in God’s court. God can help me because He is All-Powerful, or He can just leave me standing at the side of the road.
Mind you, the All-Knowing God already knows what I need help with, so I did not need... -
The Trinity in the NT (my belief)
Matthew 28:19
Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
John 14:26
But the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you everything.
2 Corinthians 13:14
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all! -
Legitimate Disproof of Evolution
Dear Scientist, I ask you to give full consideration to the research manuscript I submit to you and to start the review process. This simply gives you the chance to reveal talents given to me, as I am not dumb like millions of similar non-prominent and unfamiliar submitters. I have completed the secondary school with the Gold Medal, Tartu University with Cum Laude, and I have successfully published in Physical Review E and European Physical Journal B.
The title was deliberately made...
