Speaking of Soothsaying: Narrated Abu Huraira: While the Prophet was saying something in a gathering, a Bedouin came and asked him, "When would the Hour (Doomsday) take place?" Allah's Apostle continued his talk, so some people said that Allah's Apostle had heard the question, but did not like what that Bedouin had asked. Some of them said that Alllah's Apostle had not heard it. When the Prophet finished his speech, he said, "Where is the questioner, who enquired about the Hour (Doomsday)?" The Bedouin said, "I am here, O Allah's Apostle ." Then the Prophet said, "When honesty is lost, then wait for the Hour (Doomsday)." The Bedouin said, "How will that be lost?" The Prophet said, "When the power or authority comes in the hands of unfit persons, then wait for the Hour (Doomsday.)" Hmm... Are we there yet? ;) It may not be 1984 but George Orwell sure did see the future . . . |

i'm buddism,right under here is something simple about it: The god is the concept that mean 'anything work for universe'.The universe was balanced forever.When we do bad thing,we will pay for that,please imaging that a computer(i'm sorry for my language),when we input the program,the output must the work done based on calculation.It's mean that what you do for world,the world will pay back to you and balanced,but doens't mean that when you donated 10$,then you get back with the 10$,but the effected of these money can help the people with big significance.All the thing in universe are link together like network .When you do bad,you will received it effect and when you turn into next life(another personal),these thing effected which condition you are live there.When you do wrong such killing in previous life,then you will get heart-weak or"qualm" when looking at the murdering bloody images in current life (normal people will thing only such "terrible thing","social problem","feeling lucky" and etc). "You will get back what you are do in future and these also effected what the life condition<good or bad> may coming out next life after you are death."Remember,we are the part of "god". æ„›ï¹Âä»Âï¹Âå¿Âï¹Âå–„ï¹Â勇 Any people can sense their die just a couple of their live |

In my previous life I was a donkey, in my next life I'm hoping to be a bird... ;) (But I'll settle for being any animal in the wild kingdom, 'cause humans are way too barbaric.) It may not be 1984 but George Orwell sure did see the future . . . |

Here is my take on things. Can I say for 100% sure that there is no god .... no I can not. But I can say that I am 100% sure that if there is a god is not one that we have thought up. My reasons for that are: Humans have been around for almost 150,000 years (opps, I know the world is only 12000 years old) and we have had many many different gods. So if any of the gods before the current three or four were real they should have smacked us hard for forgetting about them. I really had my hopes on Zeus. But he has been gone for thousands of years and still has not smacked us. As for the current religions... we have changed them so much over the last 2000 years that if I was god I would be pissed. I don't know. I have to believe in what I can prove or at least test. People often say that I have no faith in the unknown. But how can you have faith in that. If you believe something you can not prove then it could be anything. If put in the right enviroment you could believe the Easter Bunny is real .... like I do. |

Here is my take on things. Gosh, I must've read this opening phrase from at least twelve different avatars by now... ;) (I'm not mocking YOU, I'm making a POINT.) It may not be 1984 but George Orwell sure did see the future . . . |

Jesus was the 'son of God' and only had eleven friends and a twelfth who betrayed him... Eventually, they were all slain, not by the unbelievers, but by the hypocrites... I suppose the odds were never really in my favor... ;) (JESUS warned us that the ANTICHRIST would come in HIS NAME teaching A DIFFERENT GOSPEL... Do YOU have JESUS?)

THE TYPE ONE CIVILIZATION DOESN'T NEED RELIGION The religion believe is common teaching in different people itself.For an atheist,i choosing moral principle as my own way of religion believe and no concept of the 'god'(perhap a super-alien maybe),and get physiology supporting from a lot of philosophy. I may tell your,i live in multi-religion communidy and touching know many about them,many negative way i was found in it,can be put it as the own culture.For example,they spending many time on ceremony,spend many cos to pray for the god disabled people from daily work in special time based on the unbelieved story even force people to learning the language where the religion coming from and alway slave themselve to the 'god'. æ„›ï¹Âä»Âï¹Âå¿Âï¹Âå–„ï¹Â勇 Any people can sense their die just a couple of their live |

you mean that type two and three are improved versions Because we cannot understand their ways of thinking about the 'god', just a small distance between our and type one civilization,so we can perdict itself. æ„›ï¹Âä»Âï¹Âå¿Âï¹Âå–„ï¹Â勇 Any people can sense their die just a couple of their live |

John 18:36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.

II Timothy 3:1-5 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. It's AMAZING how many of 'these people' have tried to call me 'brother'... then called *ME* the fool... ;) (Sorry 'dude', you ain't my 'brother', so just DEAL WITH IT!)
