I cannot answer your question. I do not know why some do not believe in miracles.
I myself do believe. There are millions of Christians that do not believe in miracles.
Even if they themself got healed,they say that the body did this or something else.

If someone gets heals they say,they was not really sick. Yet they believe in Jesus.

I believe too rejoice, if not, religion has no purpose. Then we cant believe to anything. We believe in something more than us because we hope He will help us. No hope, no life!:D

somewhere out there......
I believe that there is something out there. But I do not believe in a God that says He loves you but then if you dont believe in him he will condemn you to hell for all eternity. I do not believe in a God that will condemn wounderful people in this world to hell just because you dont believe in him.....just makes no since at all. As long as you believe in something that should be good enough....everybody is diefferent.

I have found good points to all religions and just take that which suits me as proper and leave the rest as man made confusion. Perhaps the Hindu views are really more enlightened then people are lead to believe. Other religions seem to do their best to detour people from learning anything at all about such things.
The only problem I have with Hinduism is the Caste System. But I've been told it's moving away from that.:)

Grimmer, God says "come to me I am here. If you dont go, God will not punish you, you are just alone without His help. You join other creatures;-)

And God helps good people even if they believe in boudas, confukious or anything else;-). He is a good Man:thumb:

imeothanasis, how is you religion holding up in Greece? In ythe U.S.there has been a non-stop assault on religion in the past few years, and i fear its only going to get worse.. personally I don't go to Church much, but I'm a strong believer..More so from life experiences than teachings...

Same here cuda. Someone wants us to be sheeps and to follow only money, so we will get slaves. Someone wants to destroy the spirit of people. Hopefully there are some people fighting this.

But I sleep in peace because no one beats God:lol::lol:

I completely agree with you here Vinniemac.
I too, looked into many religions. Regardless of all of them, almost all lead up to a higher power. My Father is Christian and my Mother is Muslim, both do not follow. They never tried to influence me with either, so I would have the ability to find my own way. I do believe in Nirvana as I do with a Hell. I do believe in an afterlife by choice or by force.
To me, God is in everything, God is everywhere.
We know right from wrong and thats all that matters.
I see the Bible(s) being guildlines by examples of how to live our lives.

I wished everyday was a holiday here. I would make alot more money.
Get paid overtime for working holidays:D

XA XA, we are paid normal too on holidays sweety. I am an insurance guy so no holiday for me, only work. I work w/k, christmas, easter, all the time. But I like it, I like working, I like laughing, I like holidays, music, I like all stuff. I am happy all the time. Even if enemies come to me for fight. But I dont like thiefs. One day I almost kill one of them. He was trying to steel my pocket.:D

When police came, he said that I was trying to steel him!!!8-o8-o

Bristow, Ok.
I dont like churches, I like jesus. I have hear about other religions and I like mine because jesus is the only one who made miracles and the only one who make dead people alive again:)

I have a very strong belief in God and Jesus. I believe that Jesus turned water into wine. I don't drink but I think if I did I would still be a Christian. I don't believe in organized religion the way it is now. I don't think Jesus liked religious people either. I don't think I could cope with the trials in life without having faith that there is a real God and there is another life to come. I have had problems but I have never had to suffer like so many people have. There are people today that are persecuted for their faith. I have been laughed at but never persecuted or tortured. I have been blessed. I have a daughter that I believe I will one day be reunited with. I miss her so much. I believe that she is alive and well with Jesus. I believe that I will one day be more alive than I am now with my parents and grandparents friends and everyone that I love. I don't believe that people will be in hell forever. I believe in hell. I believe that hell is forever but I don't believe anyone will be the burning forever. I believe that God is merciful. The woman at the well that met Jesus went and told her friends to come and see him. If he had been hateful to her she would never have told anyone. I believe that one day I will meet all of you. I don't think I will go to Greece or that all of you will come to Bristow Oklahoma but we will end up in the same place. Some of us will just arrive sooner than others.

Stormy... I am so sorry for the loss of your daughter. :(

Thank you Rejoice. It has been 27 years. I miss her so much. I am just so happy that I will see her again. I just don't know how parents that don't believe in God could ever cope with the loss of a child. I feel sorry for them.

That was not me,but I too am real sorry for your loss.
I cannot even imagine what this is like.
I lost my mother 4 years ago and it is still hard. I want to pick of the phone and call her. I want to visit but cannot. It feels like it was yesterday she died. Everyday I miss her. So to lose a child has to be even worst. So sorry for your loss:(
