    Utterly Lost

    So by way of an update I've decided to try attending an Anglican church for a while and seeing how that sits with me. Not too much you have to believe to be an Anglican so that may be a good match for me.

    Can you gain faith by praying?

    Who would you pray to, and how? You really need some conception of God before you can pray.

    Hello Henry. Hope you are well this fine day. 1. With the knowledge available to the medieval mind, it may be reasonable to conclude one of these causes as many people did. Nor frankly are any of those possibilities to be discounted. If one accepts the existence of a spiritual realm, it is...

    Hello again Henry, nice to hear from you. 1. I do believe that the complexities in the universe and that would have been involved therefore in its creation require the presence of some intelligent force behind it all. I simply can not accept as likely the creation of the universe by random...

    RF Supports the Gay Agenda

    Having a rainbow emoticon isn't really supporting the gay agenda. A rainbow, especially in the form of an actual bow rather than a series of horizontal lines, also has religious connotations for Christians, Jews and not forgetting Noahides.

    A Preventative Healthcare, BMI-driven, universal benefit

    Encouraging people to cut down on the snacks and booze and go for a walk now and again would be a cheaper strategy.

    Yeah I hear you. Many Catholics have a stronger devotion to Mary than to God. I'm not suprised to hear that. All that stuff just seems to get between us and God somehow. May I ask what church you go to now?

    Utterly Lost

    I have a lot of doubts about the nature of God. But I am 95% sure of the existence of a God even if I'm less sure on the details. I could come up with a lot of reasons for my belief in God, but my top 2 would probably be 1. I believe that the universe and all the complex forms of life in it...

    I'm trying to be open minded right now but I can't really see it. I've done a few of these tests and Islam has come up top twice, Conservative Protestant a few times, and Orthodox Judaism is always pretty near the top, some I'm taking these as a rough indicator at most. Sometimes I do. But I'm...

    Can you think of any situations where forced sterilization should be used?

    Certainly in England, there have been cases where the courts have allowed a person with diminished mental capacity and who could not consent to the procedure because of that to be sterilised. Here is the full decision for anyone interested Re_A (medical treatment: male sterilisation) [2000]

    Hi Henry, thanks for your response. I'm starting to research and investigate different belief systems as open-mindedly as I can. When I say believe in a God who is one, I mean I am a convinced monotheist. That is about the one thing I can hold on to as much as I can anything.
