    Hearing loss.

    Woo! Revived thread. :D Sorry to hear that Blessed. :( I have nowadays come to accept my hearing loss - and I don't think I would trade it for the world. My hearing loss progression has slowed, or stopped - I'm not sure which, and I have made some Deaf friends and hang out within the...

    Finding Faith

    I'm not sure if this should be in this area, but I don't know where to put it. Perhaps prayer section would be better, perhaps not. But, I've been away for so long. Literally almost a year. And this is my struggle. I once had faith, I was on fire with zeal for God. But the candle...

    Japanese Dorama~!!

    Hi! I watch "Orange Days", and I've seen a few others... I just can't remember many. Got any I can watch online? :) My Japanese isn't perfect, nor is my hearing, so it'd be great if they had subtitles :)

    Pope baptizes prominent Italian Muslim

    Guys, I haven't been on a lot, since I don't have net access at home. Sometimes I get lost afterwards :D Yaqov, I've read your things, and I can tell you're either a) schizophrenic or b) a compulsive liar. You show how much you really think of women when you call anyone who is critical of...

    Why you insult other religions?

    It's okay. I know how frustrating it can be attempting to explain something in another language. Considering you are only 17, your English is amazing. You must've been learning since you were like what, six years old (or so?) to get this type of accuracy. Maybe "anti-God" would be a good...

    Why you insult other religions?

    Hmm, thanks :) Would you say Ahriman was a god in his own right, albeit an evil one?

    Ask A Question about the Baha'i Faith (2)

    Thanks :) This business, this is the instructions on how to pray in the long prayer? :) Sounds kinda like Muslim prayer to me, this one does. :) 1. How about cultural diversity? How is that represented in the Baha'i faith? 2. I'd like to ask about the second verse in the short prayer, I...

    Why you insult other religions?

    Haha, yay :) Very nice to have a Zoroastrian here. It's a very interesting faith, and certainly one I'd like to get to know more about. One question I'd like to know, is about God in Zoroastrianism. Some have said it is a dualistic religion, with "two Gods in principle because both are...

    The Syro-Aramaic Reading of the Koran

    I'd like your opinions on "The Syro-Aramaic Reading of the Koran". How trustworthy is it? This is not a debate about 'tradition', however. I'd like it from a "this can't be because..." or "this would make sense", or something. I think it sounds pretty good, and this would make quite a few of...

    The Syro-Aramaic Reading of the Koran

    Lol! Just wondering if anyone's read it. Worth a shot, hm?

    Can someone explain the "_" thing?

    yaqov, He means the omission of the "o" in God, not who created God or where God came from. :) Hope this clarifies it for you. @OP: It's something that many many Jews do as a sign of respect for God, because they do not take God's name lightly, and the idea that someone could destroy or...

    Welcome to the forum, Chaschayarascha! Did I write that right? That certainly is a tricky one to write! :)

    Happy Beltane! I'm going to celebrate it by working like um...something really really fast and hard... my two assignments are in next week and I thought I had longer. :D Celebrate it for me, y'hear?

    Ask A Question about the Baha'i Faith (2)

    I got two questions! 1. How does a "Baha'i service" go? Like, the Anglican Christian service involves lots of sitting down and standing up for songs, then sitting back down. :D 2. How does a Baha'i "pray"? Do they have any prescribed postures like in Islam?

    What makes one religion better than another?

    Hehe. Do you mean, "Namu Amida Butsu"? :)

    What makes one religion better than another?

    This is my take on it. I don't think any religion can be better than another (usually). The only exception is when one gets a cult such as Heaven's Way (old Heaven's Way), or when religion controls a human being's thoughts and is used to instil terror and has people scared to do something such...

    Immanuel

    "Called" Immanuel or "named" Immanuel? That'd be interesting. Can you find out the use of word in Greek (there's passage, Isaiah 7:14, in Hebrew, too)? If it does not use name, I dunno how useful your argument is. For example, I'm "called" Curly by some of my friends because of my hair, and...
