Be Not Affraid Lyrics
Filed in The Category - Gospel Lyrics
You shall cross the barren desert,
but you shall not die of thirst.
You shall wander far in safety,
though you do not know the way.
You shall speak your words in foreign lands,
and all will understand,
You shall see the face of God and live.
Be not afraid,
I go before you always,
Come follow Me,
and I shall give you rest.
If you pass through raging waters
in the sea, you shall not drown.
If you walk amidst the burning flames,
you shall not be harmed.
If you stand before the pow’r of hell
and death is at your side,
know that I am with you, through it all
Be not afraid,
I go before you always,
Come follow Me,
and I shall give you rest.
Blessed are your poor,
for the Kingdom shall be theirs.
Blest are you that weep and mourn,
for one day you shall laugh.
And if wicked men insult and hate you, all because of Me,
blessed, blessed are you!
Be not affraid,
I go before you always,
Come follow Me,
and I shall give you rest.

One by one, kid by kid, religion is creeping up on us. The effects of religions like Christianity, Catholicism, and the other 36,000+ Christian denominations are bringing us down as a society. Whether it’s indoctrinations, crusades, inquisitions, or just the outdated moral values, religions have introduce to the world is devastating.
Religion prevents scientific achievement and puts a halt to scientific studies. Therefore, The effects of religion is that which prevents scientific achievement and puts a halt to scientific studies. They hold back stem cell research which could be vital in the fight against diseases like cancer, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, spinal cord injuries and muscle damage. Many faiths and churches, including Judaism, the United Church of Christ, The Episcopal Church, the Presbyterian Church (PCUSA), the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America all oppose the Stem Cell Research Enhancement Act of 2005, which provides federal funding of embryonic stem cell research. These Churches believe Stem Cell Research is consider murder, which goes against the 6th commandment written by god.
Catholicism also prevents abortion and the use of contraceptives, which has resulted in millions becoming infected with HIV/AIDS, as well as unwanted pregnancies. Such unwanted pregnancies create pressure on impoverished societies. Pope Benedict XVI, quoted, “Scripture does not explicitly mention abortion, but as the official interpreter of the Scriptures, he said that the commandment “You shall not kill” applies to abortion as well. There are also other references which state that an unborn baby is a human person, such as Psalm 51:5, Psalm 139:13-16 and Jeremiah 1:5. Such major decisions should not be decided from faith. Archbishop Charles J. Chaput, the highest-ranking Roman Catholic prelate in Colorado said, “The church says abortion is a foundational issue”, on Oct 9, 2004. The efforts of Archbishop Chaput and his allies rounded up more then 50,000 people for upcoming elections, Archbishop Chaput said “voting against abortion is to commit a sin”. Where as you see based on faith alone, religion has once again made it’s impact on critical decisions.
Rational Thinking is skewed and damaged by superstitious notions which cannot be backed up by evidence. For centuries, even before people learned to read and write, religion has continuously rejected the findings of objective Science. In 1632, when Galileo published his book, Dialogues on the Two Chief World Systems, he was summoned by Pope Urban VIII a year later to appear before the Inquisition in Rome. Just for asserting the his ideas that the Earth was not the center of the universe or that the earth is not flat, Galileo was sentenced to life imprisonment in a Roman dungeon for most of his life. Such ignorance stops education and could revert us back in the Dark Ages.
Also, there is a connection that parents who are theists have children with lower IQ’s. These children will be less interested in science. Religious people, who will live in that adulthood, will become less intelligent compared the to people around them. Research has already proven this theory. Paul Bell in “Mensa Magazine”, 2002, reviewed all studies taken of religion and IQ. He concluded:”Of 43 studies carried out since 1927 on the relationship between religious belief and one’s intelligence and/or educational level, all but four found an inverse connection. That is, the higher one’s intelligence or education level, the less one is likely to be religious or hold “beliefs” of any kind.”
Since the beginning of time, religion has been to control the masses, but it’s the 21st Century now, and we shouldn’t let religion blind us anymore. The time to put a end to religion has come. These are only the few examples religion have provided for society that has been left in ruins. Being an indoctrinated theist since I was born has put a toll on my life, but now that I further the study on my religion and world religion, I can proudly call myself an atheist and fight what I believe in, and I hope you can too.
Im a senior at a catholic high school thank you
Is there a Mormon who could explain why so many contradictions between The Bible and The Book Of Mormon?
Filed in The Category - Psalms Book Three
1)According to a Book of Mormon prophecy (Helaman 14:27), at the time of Christ’s crucifixion “darkness should cover the face of the whole earth for the space of three days.” In contrast, the New Testament gospel accounts declare repeatedly that there was darkness for only three hours while Jesus was on the cross (Matthew 27:45; Mark 15:33; Luke 23:44).
2)The Book of Mormon teaches that little children are not capable of sin because they do not have a sinful nature (Moroni 8:8). In contrast, the Bible in Psalm 51:5 clearly teaches that we have sinful nature from birth: “Surely I was sinful at birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me” (NIV). (This does not mean that those who die in infancy are lost.)
3)The Book of Mormon teaches that the disobedience of Adam and Eve in eating the forbidden fruit was necessary so that they could have children and bring joy to mankind (2 Nephi 2:23-25). In contrast, the Bible specifically declares that Adam’s transgression was a sinful act of rebellion that unleashed the power of sin and death in the human heart and throughout God’s perfect world (Genesis 3:16-19; Romans 5:12; 8:20-21). There is no Biblical support for the view that Adam and Eve could only fulfill the command to “be fruitful and multiply” (Genesis 1:28) by disobeying God’s command regarding the forbidden fruit (Genesis 2:17). The Book of Mormon teaching that these divine commands are contradictory, and that God expected Adam and Eve to figure out that in reality He wanted them to break the latter command (”of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it”) in order to keep the former (”be fruitful and multiply”), has no basis in logic or the Biblical text, and attributes equivocation to God.
4)The Book of Mormon teaches that black skin is a sign of God’s curse, so that white-skinned people are considered morally and spiritually superior to black skinned people (2 Nephi 5:21). In contrast, the Bible teaches that God “made of one blood all nations of men” (Acts 17:26, KJV), that in Christ distinctions of ethnicity, gender and social class are erased (Galatians 3:28), and that God condemns favoritism (James 2:1).
5)The people described in the Book of Mormon operated multiple temples (Alma 16:13; 23:2; 26:29). This violates the dictates of the Old Testament Scriptures on two counts: First, God commanded Israel to build only one temple to reflect that fact that there is only one true God (Deuteronomy 12:5,13-14; 16:5-6). Second, the one legitimate temple was to be built in Jerusalem (Zion), the location designated by God (The Old Testament is filled with explicit references to God choosing Jerusalem [Zion] as the place where “His name would dwell” in the temple: for example, 1 Kings 8:44,48; 11:13,32,36; 14:21; 2 Kings 21:7; 23:27; 1 Chronicles 28:4; 2 Chronicles 6:6; 7:12,16; Psalm 78:68-69; Isaiah 18:7.

Instead of a volume control, do Christian preachers have a scare factor control?
Filed in The Category - Christian Keywords
You know, in times of war and the panic following a natural disaster, most people are more receptive to what they assume is the word of God and the preachers can speak in soft words in a soft voice and have complete control. But when people are relaxed and have a few minutes to think about what they are being told, the word of God sounds like the nonsensical ramblings of a madman. So the preacher’s solution is to turn up the scare factor and throw in a few keywords with dark connotations like hellfire, Armageddon, rapture, Satan, evil, sin etc.

Name ONLY THREE instances in the Bible that you would have liked to be a witness to?
Filed in The Category - Psalms Book Three
For me, they would be:
1] LISTENING to God sing [Deut. 31:19-22 and Psalms 95:8-11];
2] WATCHING Jesus raise Lazarus from his grave; and
3] VIEWING all of the Book of Revelations on a big screen TV.
How about you?
Two questions for Mormons?
Filed in The Category - Psalms Book Two
I am a practicing Catholic, but am not close-minded. I have read the Book of Mormon, having been told by Mormon missionaries that if I read it with an open mind and prayed for guidance, God would reveal to me that it truly is His word. Instead, after reading and prayer I had a bunch of suspicions about the book. Two of the easiest to repeat are:
1. During the exodus, pharao’s chariots were destroyed. Therefore, at the time of the exodus, the Israelites knew about the wheel. If a group of them left the middle east at a later date and settled in the Americas, why did native Americans know nothing of the wheel when Columbus arrived? I cannot fathom an entire civilization forgetting about the wheel.
2. If one searches the Bible for occurrences of the word, “smoke,” one finds that the only person who smokes in the Bible is God the Father, in Psalms 18 or 19, depending on which Bible translation you use. If God the Father smokes, why are Mormons are so opposed to smoking?

How does a christian deal with sibling incest in these modern times?

I was sexually abused by my two brothers and two neighbor boys in my childhood. This was over two decades ago. I have always wanted to get justice or get even. My faith in Christ and my support systems have always stop me. What can I do to avenge myself after all these years since therapy did not help. Where is the line drawn? Action with no guilt and no consquences.
