Unitarian Universalism

That is a religion. Is anyone a Unitarian Universalist? Do you even know what it is? Have you ever even heard of it?

Sounds like new religons is a new trend in 2k5. I was going with my friends and saw some paper on the bus stop, when I read it, it said that--

"I am Holy Joseph, Come to our circle of life. Satan is with you you must not deny it, Jesus cant save you. I can"

There was more on the paper but i dont remember but it had to something about him being the savior of humans. We have so many lunatics living in this world :roll:

Anyway Jugement day is coming soon belive it or not... (Y)

I have a friend who's Unitarian Universalist, he really dislikes going to church though, says they're crazy, but that's all I know about the religion.

I dont have a religon, I just try to be the best person i can be and believe in god, not man. Religon is run by man.. but his to his own....

With Judgement day, there have been worse times than what we live in now, world war I and II, the spanish flu... so was judgement day closer then than what it is now? considering times are better now?

I get what your saying, but what about global warming, is it accountable for the recent earthquake/tsunami. Also there are now enough Nuclear weapons on the planet to destroy it 80+ times over, slightly overzealous me thinks.

Read some facts on this Page

At the end of the day the planet belongs to us, we are all born to the same sun and under it we are all brothers and sisters, that can not be divided by any race or religon, and therefor each and every individual person is responsible for the Earth.

K, this is wierd, im gonna debate myself to clarify what i mean.
we are all born to the same sun and under it we are all brothers and sisters, that can not be divided by any race or religon


Obviously we are and it is. But if theres no planet to live on what fucking difference does it make.

Religon is run by man


Not only is it run by man, its also away for one man to control another man.

Sorry if im rambling, its 1st thing and i just got out of bed.

i was browsing on a forum that belongs to a church (christian) a friend goes to, and there was a post about the tsunami in asia.... they were encouraging people to pray (funny they didnt encourage people to donate, but they probably did somewhere else) for those that are lost or otherwise dead in the disaster. however, the post also said it is a reminder to the people as to not sin against christ/god.

maybe i'm being a little sensitive, but i'm getting the message from this guy that those who died deserved it as they have "sinned" against god or somethin..... which is totally ridiculous and a really (can't find the right fucken word :x) thing to say :?

i'm not religious by the way

The G.O.A.T, whatever religion you choose, do NOT become a fundamentalist or an extremist.

It's easy to make up signs that point to the world is ending. How long have this been going on for? Remember 1000 AD? Everybody thought the world was going to end that day. Heck, even in the year 2000, people thought the world was going to end. I suggest you read a couple books by Marcus Borg (Reading the Bible Again for the First Time: Taking the Bible Seriously But Not Literally is probably for you).


As a side note, I find it pathetic that there is so much attention on the tsunami disaster where about 125 000 people have been killed, and nobody gives a rat's ass about the 100 000+ innocent civilians killed in the Iraqi war.

Sick aint it. Its very hard to point a finger and blame somebody for the Tsunami, whereas with Iraq is pretty easy to say who's responsible. Alot of people dont realise that civilian casualties are that high in Iraq, its been brushed under the carpet very well. That said, Saddams "regime" is responsible for almost a million murders.

Only 1/20th of what Stalin accomplished. Anyway, I don't know why attention was suddenly headed to Iraq (oil? avenge for his father?) when bigger crisises are at hand in Rwanda, the Congo, and huge threats in North Korea and bin Laden, who's largely forgotten.

First of all I am muslim... My religon says things which are totally right (from my point of view). If you really wanna know the signs i will tell u later cause i have to ask my mom or dad about that...(cause they knw more about religon more than me :( )

The sings i Know so far...
:arrow: When Judgment day is near, the sun will rise from the west.
The science of astronomy states that the speed of planet Mars has been
decreasing in its course toward the eastern direction in the few past weeks
to the level we notice the "waver" between the east and the west..and on
Wednesday the 30th of July the planet movement stopped going toward the
eastern direction..
Then in the months of August and September...Mars changed its course in the
opposite direction to the West- and that until the end of September..which
means the sun will rise now from the west on Mars!!
And this weird phenomena of the opposite movement called "Retrograde Motion"
Most scientist state that all the planets will go through the same once at
least and our planet Earth is one of them. Planet Earth will move in the
opposite direction some day and the sun will rise from the west!!
This might occur soon and we are unaware!
.....


:arrow: People would have no shame... You see girls wearing nothing but there bras and guys taking of thier shirts

:arrow: Great Disasters would happen--Tsunami, The so called "War On Terror", Muslims ppl dying

Thats so much i can remember :D
