    Looking for people to practice community life ideas with, in Internet discussions

    I just finished writing a pamphlet, that you may find interesting. It has a lot of the philosophies that started the original church, started by Jesus' Apostles, back before Christianity began. These are not Christian views, they are more pre-christian. Anyway, check it out, and let me know if...

    If God exists, why does He allow suffering?

    Who is claiming to know more now? Jesus told us that his purpose was to bring division/the sword. That is hatred and war. Divide the people, turn them against each other. That was Jesus' purpose. You are assuming that will not bring about World Peace. You do not know better than God or Jesus...

    If God exists, why does He allow suffering?

    Do you ask this question of everyone who opens his mouth? There is not a single person on Earth, who does not assume himself to be wiser than everyone else on many occasions. Cultivating mind and body is what every child does, from the moment of birth, until the day of death. Those who claim...

    If God exists, why does He allow suffering?

    People seem to think religion is what determines their actions. Religion has only a very small effect. What determines peoples actions, is money, mostly. Family and kids plays a part of some, but usually money plays a bigger part. Financial stress, fear of losing everything, etc. People do not...

    If God exists, why does He allow suffering?

    Is spiritual practice going to save you from nuclear war? If you stand by and do nothing, when you could save the lives of 7 billion people, are you a good person? If spiritual practice does not make you a better person, what is the use of it? Money is used to get people to do things, they do...

    Would God do what God has never done?

    I believe that God is millions of times more intelligent than we are, and that God knows the outcome of whatever he does, before he does it. God knows exactly how such an action would affect people, and what changes would result. I do not believe, that God can do everything. The effects of such...

    If God exists, why does He allow suffering?

    You seem to be focused on making things fit your belief system. True understanding comes from humility. That is, being willing to forget what you know, and start over. Thinking you know, is arrogance. When you think you know, you can no longer learn. Only when you don't think you know, can you...

    If God exists, why does He allow suffering?

    World Peace requires a new system of society. One which utilizes love, rather than selfishness, to motivate people. Jesus' Apostles demonstrated a prototype of this, but I believe they did not fully understand what was needed. Belief in God is not necessary. All can be accomplished, through...

    If God exists, why does He allow suffering?

    I don't know his plan, but do you really believe that God would send someone to bring World Peace, and have it not be achieved in that person's lifetime? That may be ok as a plan to keep around, as a backup, but you really should be looking for something that will happen right now. Are you not...

    If God exists, why does He allow suffering?

    I don't understand. Are you calling that a win? That Jesus asked God to forgive them? They still killed Jesus. Anyway, God was not ever angry at the people for killing Jesus, it was always God's plan that they do so. It made no difference that Jesus asked him to forgive them. I didn't say peace...

    Salvation and the Savior

    The problem with what you are saying, is my statements can not be disproved.

    If God exists, why does He allow suffering?

    2000 years is nothing for God. For some reason, people think if it does not happen right now, it will never happen. We assume that time passes the same for God as it does for us. The Bible tells us that a day of the Lord is 1000 years. As for what in the Bible has the capacity to end poverty...

    If God exists, why does He allow suffering?

    I know everyone has their own views on God and the Bible, and here's mine: The entire purpose of the Bible, is to create World Peace and end poverty, and pretty much end all suffering and solve all the problems of mankind. The objective is to create Heaven on Earth. If you don't believe this...

    Salvation and the Savior

    You realize you are accusing me of lying. I say what I believe to be true. If you do not believe them to be true, does not make them a fallacy.

    Salvation and the Savior

    God does not control what you do, or what anyone else does. This means God is not "all-powerful". I believe the devil wants you to think God is all powerful, so you think you don't have to do anything. The more intelligent people are, the more they plan, and for some reason, you think God does...
