but ive seen some otha stores, here in Canada with signs that say "hallal pork". i don't get those. i think they're fulla shit!?

[Sariel]

No, pork is haram... unlawful

Haram things:
1. Pig
2. Blood
3. Carnivorous animals
4. Almost all reptiles and insects
5. The bodies of dead animals
6. Halal animals which are not slaughtered according to the Islamic Law.
7. Wine, Ethyl Alcohol, and Spirits.

Interesting article. Although, do you really want more than 1 wife?

I think you would have to be the bravest, or craziest man alive. :)

Adam was a similar representation on "God" himself and made in his like- ness (sort of like windows XP was the first version of the operating system and itself created DOS). A few days later "God" took a rib or (DNA) from Adam and with that he took his DNA to create eve.

All that stuff about the seven days & God creating air & such was just crap. God had to tell Adam something just in case Adam was all like "what the hell is all this? and where did it come from?"

Wait…. the drunken theory goes a little further...

Now the story of the Virgin Mary and her immaculate conception: "God" made a few mistakes when creating man. 1. We lust 2. We envy 3. We’re not anything alike, which is believed that "Gods" intentions fell short. "God" made a few attempts of making it clear to humans that what we we're doing was nothing less than f*cked up! There was the story of Noah & his ark and the story of Moses & the Ten Commandments (all attempts to straighten out mankind) anyways "God" needed to do get his message across one more time by taking his DNA (or artificial insemination) and planting his seed within mary. Why he chose Mary is beyond me. Maybe because Joseph (Mary’s Husband) was a passive aggressive male who would not have asked too many questions once he found out Mary was pregnant. The Virgin Mary gave birth to God’s son, Jesus and Jesus was a perfect representation of God. Jesus was put on Earth to pass on the word of God and he was destined to die for all of out sins or lack of morals. Jesus’ death was supposed to spark goodness within mankind or to influence us men to live better lives.

Now as drunk as my dad and me were when we spoke about this it still makes sense. We just put a whole sci- fi twist to the theory that is our immaculate creation. It’s really just a mind fuck that could be proven true if there was an enormous amount of research on this.

I do believe in God.

that's weird. my brother and i had almost the exact same convo once. except mary was articificially inseminated to have jesus.

True. But women also have a lot less freedom over there, and they still work on a male superiority complex for the most part.

[crookedking]

i'd totally dig having seven or eight 15 year old wives. think of how much food and laundry would be done in a day!

[~god~]

yea women in those countries are 'slaves' to their husbands.... literally.
they can't even divorce their husbands if they wanted to. but the husband can just chuck em wheneva he feels it.

its plain whack for chiks... though.. it is getting better as the years go by.

Yeah, it's still pretty barbaric the way women get treated in some cultures.

But that is my western culture opinion. I am certainly not going to razz on another culture for being different from my own.

I feel that the belief in eternity, is in most respects the belief in God.

Through my spiritual experiences, I've learned how to leave my human body into a light body, and how to meditate and lose my concious ego. So I know that I am everything that exists, and so are you, maybe you just haven't realized it yet.

Religion may very well have started out as a natural communion to that "higher power". Today, it's nothing more than big money and a faith mechanism for those who lack faith in themselves. ESP is real, we are gods who forgot all about it.

this gets you karma

and i agree with her^..it makes me think.

[Revolver]

ack!!! mark you mason you beat me to it!

well i think that alot of people look in the wrong direction alot of the time.

they look to books, bible,quaran,tibetin book of the dead, bagavad gita.

they look to figures. priests,pope,bishops,rabbis,monks,vedics ,shamans

when really they should be making every effort possible to look and explore their own mind and consciousness...for without this, we canot preceive ''god''

THATS THE KEY...we have been genetically coded to preceive such things as ''spirit'' ''afterlife'' ''god''...this programming is what seperates us from all the other species on this planet who just go about following the law..we are the only species to deviate from this plan...were the only ones that dont fit into the biological make up of the oginaism earth...well us and whales anyway

you will find god in yourselves, some need a little visual stimuli to help (church,christ,krisna) while some do not and are already in tune.

it is your cosmic right as a human being to strive to become ''tuned in''(ewww a ghost of leary) to the god consciousness in each of us. failure to try, or allowing yourself to be blinded by other means(money,ego,material) is a direct slapp in the face of the one who created us all....

some call it ''god''

*this is not an answer..this is the answer that works for me and my consciouness at this stage of my being...everybody has differnt methods of reaching the same goal. the most harmful thing a human can do to another human(besides murder) is to alter or to enforce ones path to god on another.*

I have nothing against the religious texts that are kicking around except for the fact that they're descriptions of the time in which they were written, and sadly the language is completely dead so we have no real way of translating them into modern terms, at least the way they are written right now.

I believe in God, for lack of a better word. I don't believe God is some guy sitting in space watching over us making things happen. God is just an accumulation of that really cool stuff that happens when we, as animals, cross each others' paths (I call it "communication"). We have these funny little dances we always do and we manipulate the world around us... thus forming a weird pattern of life. And that's what I believe in.

One time I explained gnosis to a friend of mine saying that "It's the belief in Yes." That's about as well as I can explain it.

A lot of people pin themselves under "agnostic". I'd say take it that step further and look at gnosis.... I _KNOW_ there's something out there, and I think all the different faiths seem to have a different slant on them, but they, IMHO, just don't work. Especially the ones that are written in languages nobody has understood for a good 1500 years.
