Guest Guest Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 For much of my life, I've had a very difficult time trying to believe in this whole subject of religion. I've wanted to believe, but I just couldn't make myself do so. In the Bible, in a couple of places, I think, it talks about God punishing the children of those who hate God, into the following third, and fourth generations. I wonder if this might explain why it's been so hard for me to believe? So far as I know, my dad had absolutely no interest in the subject of religion, at all. I don't know exactly what his religious beliefs were, but he certainly never showed much love for God in my lifetime, at least that I'm aware of. I never knew him to go to church, or even mention the name of God. Might this be an example of God's wrath on the children of those who hate Him?

The Rev had just been struck by lightning and was blind drunk sitting at the Clubhouse bar. Ted Knight's character (who's name I forgot) scolded him and he replied "There is no God." I knew I had found my answer right then and there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't it possible that other's on BC Voice might also have had similar experiences to mine? If so, maybe I could learn someting from them. Maybe they've learned something helpful somewhere, that could help me in my quest for peace. It's possible, isn't it? Original Poster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Interesting that all of a sudden, there seems to be an influx of religious questions being posted by a "guest." It occurs right after AFC is repeatedly pummeled on a couple of other threads, without mercy and without anyone else coming to his defense. I suspect the current posts are more than a mere coincidence. Me thinks AFC might be posting to himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that mean I have to pay for my parents' sins? If so, keep your antiquated God. I have my own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVERYONE GOES THROUGH LIFE GOING THROUGH DIFFERENT STUFF..EVERYONES DIFFERENT AND DEALS WITH THINGS DIFFERENT....I HAVE LEARNED THAT GOD PUT US HERE AND HE PUT US HERE TO BE HAPPY...NOT SAD..YOU NEED TO BE AT PEASE WITH YOURSELF IN ORDER TO CONNECT WITH GOD..YOUR LOVED ONES THAT HAVE PASSED ON ARE WITH YOU AND YOU WILL SEE THEM ONE DAY...EVERYTHING YOU GO THROUGH WAS PLANNED BY GOD BECAUSE HE KNEW YOU COULD HANDLE THINGS...SO PLEASE BE HAPPY !
