An interesting thing to note is that there is considerable evidence that Jesus spent his early years in India, learning about Buddhism before returning to the middle east. It is possible that Christianity was his way of combining buddhism and judeism. Buddhism states that suffering comes from...

I do not believe anyone "owns" me because I do not believe God is an "entity". God is spiritual energy, life-force. God is not a "he", God is an "it". I think I linked the Liberal Christianity site on here, but if I didn't here it is again.I don't believe Jesus "bought" me or my soul. I believe...

(setfree;34629) Eve_Mary I went to the link and I read the pastors testimony. I saw that she exercised her right of choice once to birth her child and once to abort. What I see is a clear misunderstanding of morals. Who determines the morals of our lives? Do you believe every woman who aborts is...

Here's a link:http://www.rcrc.org/It is the Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice.

(setfree;34512) So people that can not survive on their own, is not a person? There is a difference once they are born. The main important fact is that a fetus is completely dependent on ONLY the woman carrying it in her womb. A newborn can be raised by anyone, even a male, as long as he can buy...

(setfree;34356) Are you saying that a fetus is not a live human being? Of course not. But because of its developmental differences, the fact that it cannot think or feel or survive on its own, I feel it is not a person. It is human, it has human DNA. It is alive, its heart beats. But those two...

Oh there is a major difference just developmentally between a fetus and a toddler. The MAIN issue for me is that a fetus is inside and attached to the woman's body, and a toddler or even a newborn is not. Secondly, a fetus during the stages when 90% of all abortions take place (6-12 weeks) is...

(Denver;34102) So was a virgin birth, but then that leaves us without a Savior if its not true. I don't necessarily believe in that, either.

Sorry guys; I think I've found a few places that are more liberal, though I may stick around here too because of your strong biblical focus.For me, as a scientist at heart, I cannot believe someone making wine into water, or manifesting bread out of nowhere, or bringing someone back from the...

(setfree;33964) I am curious why you have a problem with Jesus, can you explain this? Because the surface writings make him sound like a fairy tale, just like the garden of eden. I don't know if there's as much to read into the stories of Jesus, but there must be something.

(kriss;33960) You might find we have a little differnt take on Genesis [link] That was VERY cool. I highly enjoyed that; and it confirms what the preist was telling me: Genesis (and the rest of the bible) is a LOT deeper than people say it is!! Because of who I am and how I think, I am not...

I think I've actually found a few Liberal Christian forums that might suit my beliefs a little bit better!! As for the preist, I don't know! There's not much to say, lol.

Thank you, I hope my time here can be one of learning. I've tried so many other forums and right away everyone tried telling me how evil homosexuality was and how I shouldn't kill innocent babies etc etc. It's extremely frustrating. I want to be allowed to read the bible and find what meaning it...

Hello, I'm Eve_Mary.I am not what I would consider myself as "Christian" in the common sense. I don't even know if I'm Christian at all. But I feel like I'm going to burst if I don't find someone to talk to. I had a priest I was conversing with but as happens on the internet sometimes, he's...
