How do you feel about someone who, for a price, will grant you a degree in "Spiritual Formation and Leadership"...
No, its not a typo.
I will argue the church has it wrong.
What is referred to in the bible as the second coming of Christ is not about Jesus as a singular person.
Its about a segment of humanity reaching spiritual maturity ahead of the masses that aren't quite ready yet. These people are...
Counterfeit jews?

This is not meant as an offence to anyone, but the term is widely known and should be discussed.

They are certainly animated as Christians go. Alot of snake handlers also belong to this tribe. Very prevalent in the deep south of...
Most people are familar with the image of an Indian ascetic who has given up regular life in pursuit of a spiritual practice.
For those not familar with them, here is the Wiki definition : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sadhu
How do you feel about this ancient way of life?
While their numbers...
Judaism, Christianity, Islam.
To understand why they fail, you have to first examine what they have in common.

The end of an era, but not for a while yet.
This is the time of the Kali Yuga. A spiritual dark age. Many will attach a mathmatical formula to tell you when it ends or begins, but it is ultimately timed according to humanity itself.
You can explore all the different definitions of the Kali...
My message is the same for all religions. Your days are numbered.
You've been in school for thousands of years now. Are you not ready to move forward?
There is one coming who will break this cycle of study and reflection. Call him an Avatar if you like. He will represent no religion, yet he...
Some of you have chosen to dwell upon me rather than my message. This has defeated my purpose of being here.
You cannot believe that someone can know God without books or temples, and this will be your fate. I've given you an option for those that seek elsewhere.
I'm not quitting the forum...
A minor matter of semantics.
Christ, is not a name, its a title.
While various beliefs will have different definitions, in the simplest of terms it means annointed one. A messiah to some. An enlightened person to others. It is used to describe someone who has a oneness with God that others do...
This is a subject that will undoubtedly rub some people the wrong way. So be it. It needs to be discussed.
I accuse anyone who accepts a single penny for religious or spiritual instruction to be a moneychanger in the temple. I don't care if you are the Pope or a preacher in a country church. If...
Who has seen the movie? I personally think it is Scorsese's best work.
Excellent soundtrack. The costumes. The setting.
This movie can actually make me cry.
Your opinions of the movie?

Not really.
There are going to be some leading roles in this play, but the Anti-Christ itself has no human face of it's own. It is composed of other people.
It will arrive as a kind of plague. It will be a way of thinking. And it will sweep through most of the world. Compassion will be...
Oh gee. That was an attractive worm on the hook, wasn't it?
But let's talk about why your're reading this instead of something else. Want to know why you're going to hell? Right?
