? 4 U

this has been going through the disscussion table at here at
The DownLoad Society and we "papercrayons" wanted to get your input on this...

one of the 10 commandments is "thou shall have no God before me" - old testament

and

if Jesus tells us to pray like this...

"Our Father who art in heaven... ect. ect. ect." - new testament

then why do we make references to God.

when we talk about "the most high" or whatever u want to call him/her/it so on and so on. why do we refer him as "God" when Jesus always referred him as "Father"

can someone add input to this subject.

I think it might be one of these:

a) Something got lost in the many translations of the bible
b) God changed his mind
c) It's all bunk
d) All of the above

must be C cos translations always seem to add stuff rather than lose it and God doesn't think so he can't change his mind either
I feel pretty, that's enough

I'd have to go with C, cuz whoever translates the thing can make it say whatever they want it to.

well i was thinking this...


Jesus is son of Man...

the son is in the image of his father


the holy trinity is

The Father
The Son
The Holy Spirit...


where is God mention.

is it possible that "God" was created to
cause a distraction bewteen us and Our Heavenly Father
check this tought out

the world is in conflict right now and for
the most part its over "God"

jews
palinestines
catholics
prodistants
muslims

and so on and so on. yes sure there are other things at stake here but the word "God" appears in everday print as if it were without meaning, yet causing much distruction
on many levels.

could God be The Devils tool against U.

to be continue...

"in God we Trust" is printed on the most "important" part of our daily bread.


yet our bread is the cause of so much curuption.

Our pledge of allegence is "one Nation under God"

when it was told to pray like this "our father ..."

is the father being spoken out, the same as the God we trust.


more 2 come.

Not all people are dependant on the notion of god. Prayer in schools is offensive to people who dont believe in a god, your god, or even call it god. There is no reason public schools should be required to endorse one religion over all others, and make this a daily routine, implying that that one religion is the only "right" one.

If there was a way to celebrate numerous religions and beliefs each morning at school then that would be great. Theres not enough time each morning to do that.

All prayer in school is is free advertising for christianity. They want to start early conditioning kids to believe that there are no other valid options or beliefs.

no i am not a sheep but i am a son of my father's
i am the shepard and
i trust what i am told by my father
for what i feel is his love.

many times we are decieved by this idea of God or this perception of God, there are many gods. when u call out the word god do u know exactly which one responds.
the word God is very misleading.

there is only one father.

Mmmm, yes, I think I agree with that. All energy is 'God'.
