karenmeal 0 #76 February 26, 2004 In response to the really long post... Proud to be agnostic! Does anyone feel pride in their religion when they read excerpts like that from the bible? I certainly appreciate the teachings of Jesus and many of the things he taught have governed my set of morals, but many parts of the old testament are ridiculous! A God that tells his people to get into heaven you must do A through Z (omitting F through M) but if B then do 2C and if R you must have done the third version of X before you can commit Y... ----As far as which sin is worse, I believe the bible said that to even consider committing a sin is just as bad as committing all of the sins? I could be totally wrong though as interpreting the bible is not my forte...

Designer 0 #77 February 26, 2004 Her in Va. we have sodomy and non-marital sex laws.Needless to say nobody bothers trying to enforce a law that rests in an individuals "Bedroom".We would end up with sex police squads!How stupid is that?Very,I think.Personally,I think "Lying" is a greater sin.My current situation with the courts rests solely on the lies of a brutally abusive lying bitch.Who calls the police first is more important than the truth!OH WELL,3 months of class and I go anywhere.

I don't know about you but everytime I see a circle* I do not think about planets. ______________________________________________ When "people" are expected to exhist on something "round", out in space,heaven, etc. The mental note taken for many, would be another planet (us that were "welcomed" to study* Or maybe we were NOT "welcome"-you tell me). A plain round circle, flat (like the World used to be) would be less heaven like to me (7 Planes of Hell are said to be flat circles). You tell me. I enjoyed the Elders and Sister as they taught me. I would rather enjoy keeping that as a positive part of my life. If I should view them in a negative light, please let me know.
