When my children were very young my parents would watch them occasionally. My father took them to the Catholic church and had the baptized without our knowledge. He was so afraid of original sin. Catholics baptize shortly after birth. They just sprinkle holy water vs immersion. We didn't find...
I was horrified by that story. I never followed it that closely. I knew she was delusional but not to what extent. That was such a shame.
It seems like a lot of people that are on psyche medications don't like to take them. I guess you have to do the nurse routine and be sure they take them. I...

Not true. People go to Heaven or Hell based on whether they accept Christ as their Savior or not. Deeds or "generic karma" only determine the degree of reward or punishment.
That's the theory. Nobody has ever lived to tell about it. So it remains a theory. That's what I was told...
I'm agnostic and I don't really absolutely believe in anything spiritual. I would be atheist except it means you believe there is no God. I can't say that because I can't prove it just like a believer can't prove their belief. I like to think there is something after death. However I can't...
Absolutely believe in it. I believe most religions are based in Paganism. Christianity used all the Pagan celebrations as their Holy Days in order to make it easier to convert the Pagans. I don't believe in the Bible but I do believe that the three fold version of Karma is in the Bible. I know...
