- NEW!
Help answer this question below.
I believe in myself, and who I believe to be my True Friends, I trust those who are held 100% accountable for their actions. I was Baptized and attended Catholic schools K through 12. I started to question my Priests, Nuns and the teachers at my school when I was in my seventh grade. By the time I reached my sophomore year, I was able to give my religion teachers a run for MY PARENTS MONEY. While I was questioning my faith in class, my religion teacher, (a Priest at the time) would make fun at me in front of the whole class. I responded to him (in front of the whole class), that I thought that he was being childlike and asked him wasn’t it his job to convince me that I was wrong and show me the way to see things his way? Turn the other cheek sort of thing? But I guess that he thought he would be better of getting the class on his side by making fun at me thus defeating me by public humiliation. I believe that no religion is greater than any other. I believe in the cliché that goes sort of like, “if there was no God, man would feel the need to invent him”. Which is what I believed happened. I am constantly having heated discussion over this topic with my friends and family as you might guess. So go on, tell me where I’m wrong.
My religion = ONE = 1 GOD, I live according GOD way and not my way!
Dragon Gate Daoism, of course I'm on the right path who would walk a path the felt was wrong! +3
I am Christian. I believe I am on the right path knowing God is guiding my way for me. Revealing His Truth to me as much as I can comprehend at that moment.
Sprituality vs. Religion according to me....
SPIRITUALITY:
"When asked where God is, people point towards the sky or some far and distant region; no wonder then that He does not manifest Himself!
Realize that He is in you, with you, behind you, and all around you; and He can be seen and felt everywhere."
Satya Sai Baba
RELIGION:
11. Religion has convinced people that there’s an invisible man…living in the sky. Who watches everything you do every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a list of ten specific things he doesn’t want you to do. And if you do any of these things, he will send you to a special place, of burning and fire and smoke and torture and anguish for you to live forever, and suffer, and burn, and scream, until the end of time. But he loves you. He loves you. He loves you and he needs money.
George Carlin
I don't have a religion and I despise the word religion but I know that's the only word the world seems to understand.
Jesus is my God, the author and finisher of my faith.
Am I on the right path? Yes, because I'm on the narrow path that leads to life, not the broad path that leads to destruction.
Doubt and cynicism. It conforms to the way my brain works. +4
I'm Muslim. Yes, I think I'm on the right path.
What do I do about demons?

Do we put our faith in the Word of an all-powerful God, who knows everything and has always been there? Or do we place our faith .........?

An innocent girl is to be stoned. She asks the priest if God will save her as He did the woman in antiquity. What should he tell her?

you're wrong to let your teacher humiliate you. . .you'd have to stand out, stand in front of them is your confident and taht you do embrace what you believe. . after a consensus and you found out that you're wrong, but then you refuse to think what you learned is right, you'll be wrong again. .by closing your eyes to what you know is right. . .

I never once felt humiliated; I thought it was sad that he had to resort to those tactics. Years later I caught him in a popular bar I frequented and found out that he had left the Priesthood. He was there with a few other teachers from the school. This was a bar that the average age of the patrons was about 21 to 30 yrs. Old and they were about 45 to 50 yrs. Old. As they were talking to some girls, I yelled out from across the bar, “Hey Father Matulski!!” and when he seen me, he didn’t look too happy. Well, I got a kick out of it.

Good think that you did that to him, im wondering if he committed suicide after that scenario. . . well thanks for sharing your story. . .:)

I don’t think that suicide would ever be in his agenda. He thought very highly of himself. He was more of a self satisfying type of person. I remember one day, back in his class, during a discussion, I said, “I don’t believe in God”. And his response to me and the class, in a very childlike tone to mimic me, he said, “I don’t believe in God, I don’t believe in God, I don’t believe in God”. He truly never ceased to amaze me.
