i believe god can't be that cruel

I'd choose right
because...
in my religion,
lord krishna once said [bhagvadgita] that to protect the dharma you shall choose to be right... it shouldn't matter how much loss it causes to you or the other one.

Do you believe that after we all parish, that done of all of us are reincarnated?

I was dating someone for 3 months and things were going great but he didn't like that I'm agnostic and practice no religion whatsoever.

He wanted a young girl, virgin, Catholic with good morals, family oriented, in college and love kids. I had practically all he wanted except the Catholic part. He said without practicing any religion then nothing is really keeping me to have good morals or stay faithful. He just couldn't accept it and dumped me. I went from ''you're a rare gem'' to ''I can't date you anymore''.

I don't understand. I believe in the old traditional love (not the stupid modern business transaction of getting an incentive), staying faithful but just don't go to church. Do you really need church and believing in good to have good morals?

To forgive or not to forgive, that is the question. Read the details and VOTE BELOW!

Recently, I have been listening to Cat Stevens music from the olden days, stuff that was recorded years before his eventual conversion to Islam. Apparently he was involved in a controversy about saying an author of a book should die because of the book's blasphemous content. Because of this, some protested by boycotting his songs.

Following Ayatollah Khomeini's February 14, 1989 "death fatwa" against author Salman Rushdie, after the publication of Rushdie's novel The Satanic Verses, Yusuf Islam (previously known as Cat Stevens), made statements endorsing the killing of Rushdie. His statements generated criticism from commentators in the West.

In response, Yusuf Islam said that some of his comments were "stupid and offensive jokes" made in "bad taste."

In a 2000 Rolling Stone magazine interview:

I'm very sad that this seems to be the No. 1 question people want to discuss. I had nothing to do with the issue other than what the media created. I was innocently drawn into the whole controversy. So, after many years, I'm glad at least now that I have been given the opportunity to explain to the public and fans my side of the story in my own words. At a lecture, back in 1989, I was asked a question about blasphemy according to Islamic Law, I simply repeated the legal view according to my limited knowledge of the Scriptural texts, based directly on historical commentaries of the Qur'an. The next day the newspaper headlines read, "Cat Says, Kill Rushdie." I was abhorred, but what could I do? I was a new Muslim. If you ask a Bible student to quote the legal punishment of a person who commits blasphemy in the Bible, he would be dishonest if he didn't mention Leviticus 24:16

I had a psychic vision about my boyfriends dead brother needing prayers to pass over properly and his entire family turned on me and started saying I was the devil. I am a very quiet person, I don’t do drama, but to have a vision so vivid that I end up crying so hard because it was so intense was so out of the ordinary for me! His entire family is agnostic basically and false Christian’s. I have always been super in tuned and can sense things right before they happen and this truly shocked me to my core

I know I do, I pray every night before bed. God blesses me with wisdom and knowledge the next day to help me become the best person I can be.

I feel uplifted spiritually, and it's a wonderful feeling.

I have, and more than once. The question of God's existence/non-existence is one that I just can't seem to figure out.
