1- What happens to you after you die?
We either stay here or move closer to God. I don't believe in reincarnation -- I believe in Heaven and Hell. There's a quote from Aldous Huxley about 'maybe this planet is another planet's Hell.'
2- Why is there poverty and suffering in the world?
Poverty: Because the peasents haven't figured out they outnumber the aristocrats.
Suffering: Stuff happens.
3- Describe God.
The words "Infinite", "Omniscient", "Omnipotent", and others like that are nearly blasphemous from not beginning to cover it.
4- How does one obtain true peace?
Avoiding desire and doing anything possible to get closer to God.
5- When is war justifiable?
Whenever my right to support a secular government is infringed upon by other members of my church.
6- Describe Heaven; and how do you get there.
See Question 3 and 4
7- What is the greatest quality humans possess?
Logic, Wisdom, Emotion.
8- Why are so many people depressed?
Chemical imbalance, too much desire.
9- What is the meaning of life?
At this point, to find a good reason for us to stay here.
10- How would God want us to respond to aggression and terrorism?
I've got no problem dying. I will do my best to make sure other's don't.
11- What are we all so afraid of?
Fear. And the unknown.
12- What is your one wish for the world?
That everyone saw and understood the big picture.
13- What is our greatest distraction?
Varies from person to person. My distractions includes wrath, women, wine, and food. Alot of people where I live are distracted by organized religion.
14- "We are all one." What are your thoughts on this?
Oh, no, I am not my bigot uncle. I will say that everybody is made in the same image.
15- "One way mentality of some religions". Don't you think it is Illogical w.r.t to God ? If God is infinite, do you think one book with some verses can disclose his divine plan ?
I don't think there is a divine plan. I think there are some things God would like to see, but the concept of fate instituted by God seems to be evil to me. I mean, life sticks, and we should get over it, but if God at the beginning of time said "this person is going to suffer for no reason at all, except that I think it'd be nice to see", if that non-existant God used us as playthings, I don't think I could love, of even like, that non-existant God.
Sorry if I have offended anyone, or said something stupid.
