I DONT KNOW SO HERE IS A QUOTE THAT WILL SOOTHE YOUR BUSY, OVER-INDULGED MIND:  (george carlin)\n\n\n...rather than becoming just another mindless, religious robot, blindly believing that everything is in the hands of some spooky, incompetent father figure who doesn't give a shit, I decided to look around for something else to worship. Something I could really count on. And immediately, I thought of the sun. \nSun worship is fairly simple. There's no mystery, no miracles, no pageantry, no one asks for money, there are no songs to learn, and we don't have a special building where we all gather once a week to compare clothing. And the best thing about the sun... it never tells me I'm unworthy. It doesn't tell me I'm a bad person who needs to be saved. Hasn't said an unkind word. Treats me fine.\n\nSo I worship the sun.

Richard is an Atheist. He uses his position to spout atheist propaganda. It is comparable to if Einstein made reading the Talmud a requirement of Quantum Physics.

Based on things he has said and written, he appears to follow Confucianism(which depending on your angle can be a religion, ethical system, or philosophy). I doubt he is Christian- he seems to despise Western values.\n\nAs for the Israeli links, see below\n\nhttp://www.worldtribune.com/worldtribune/Archive-2000/me-singapore-09-12.html

Tips from American Idol. They do not use any dairy for a day before they have to sing. Then they have ice cream as  release after they sing. Before they sing they swallow 2 teaspoons of olive oil to lubricate throat.\n\nTo really improve your voice you need to use the foods suggested on this site for weight loss but they also remove the mucous causing the raspiness. Ideally  a mostly raw vegan diet gives you a huge advantage over everyone else.

All teachers, wise men, and founders of religions promote wisdom and decency, and various ways of dealing with the life of the world and the inner life - or spirit, as some have it.\n\nJesus did not found a religion.  He was a teacher, a guide - one interpretation says he was visionary enough to realize how Roman imperial will would finally destroy the Hebrew nation of Palestine and that he sought ways to extend the best of Judaism to all persons.  Christianity was created by Jesus' followers, and THEIR followers.  THESE are some of the people who claim Christ is a "savior" and that hell awaits" anyone who disagrees with them.\n\nJesus himself only had two rules - love God, and love your fellow man.  He didn't issue any rules about churches or ladies wearing headscarves or forbidden foods or anything else.  All these people running around claiming they know the truth and offering a huge list of rules the claim are inspired just make a mess of things.  And since most of them hate more people than they love, they are not following their claimed leader's laws.\n\nSo anyone who is genuinely kindhearted, generous, loving, forgiving and so forth is following the only laws Jesus handed down.  These people don't even need to have heard of Jesus to live the good life he described - they could be Musim, pagan, or just plain natural beings.  And probably living a much more decent and humane existence than the pinch-nosed, narrow-hearted "Christians".

i live by my own atheist-bible, i'll quote it here. it's actually the long version of ur dalai lama-quote, i guess:\n\n"I do not drive too fast, even if i don't agree with the rules. I give too much change back to the girl behind the counter in the supermarket. When i find a wallet on the street, i return it to the owner without expecting a reward ,because the relief on your face is worth more to me than money. In a bar i'll talk to you, when you are standing alone. I will never jugde or disrespect you on your looks, not even on your charactre. \n\nAnd i do that without any God telling me to do that\n\nI give to charity, i seperate my garbage for a better environment. I rather put on an extra sweater, than to put up the heater. I never throw my chewing-gum on the street. Every week i buy the paper from a homeless person. I will help and support you if you're attacked by drunken guys on the street, i'll avoid the fight, but i'll never leave you alone. I help the old lady cross the street, i'll bring the crying lost little girl back to her mother.\n\nAnd i do that without any God telling me to do that\n\nI know no rules, except my own thoughts. After thinking everything through, i have to conclude that there must be 'something' to make this all happen. I've looked around and inspite of all the misery, the poorness, the crime, the hate, i don't see humans as sinners, but as people with choices. I don't think that i will be lost if i do not meditate on a mountain or pray under a cross. I don't even believe that the guy who blows himself up between a group of schoolkids will burn eternally. \n\nAnd i think that without any God telling me to think that\n\nEvery person has something good inside. Sometimes on the surface, sometimes deep hidden inside. I hope that the God they all talk about, is not the guy with the beard sitting on a cloud. The God i have faith in, is just a metaphore. A feeling. A sence of all the goodness inside the people. Nothing more than that. And more clear: nothing less than that. The goodness in our heart is the most important thing we have. My God has an extra 'O'...Good. \n\nAnd i am good, without any God telling me that\n\nGood has no need for symbols. No cross, no boring books, no big fat guy, no cow, no buildings with colored glass windows. Good is everywhere and is eternal. There is no need to pray for something good, because it will always be there. There is also no need to pray to end something bad, because the bad will also always be there. Sure there are bad people. These people are to dumb to understand the good. Goodness, kindness can relieve you. Badness only creates more badness. We can never beat the badness. A bad guy with a gun can only be beaten by a good guy with a gun. But a good guy doesn't use a gun.\n\nAnd even if the Good will always loose, I'll always try to be Good.\n\nEverything has its time, and its place. In our sadness, in our anger, in our happyness, in our love we can see our humanity. These things make us to be the people we are, they shape us, they teach us, they make us really feel. And in every deep misery, there is always a hidden hope, cause we all know anything can always be done differently. This earth is our playground, to feel, to laugh, to cry, to love and to live.\n\nAnd i live. And that's good."

If Nesmas Kol CHa is the book I think you're reffereing to it was not written by Saint Peter but is a book written by Agnostic writes, who would often use the name of various Chrsitian saints to try and create a set of canon for thier relgion is place of the Christian Gospels. the gospel of St. Judas and St. Thomas are similar cases.

Everything she said is the gospel of the Bible.\n\n"Its all about Jesus"\nWhy this world was created, how it will be redeamed, how we are saved and gain eternal life.\n\n"He is the only one who can set you free from 'the law of sin and death'."\nThe Law of Sin and Death is the term used in Romans Romans 8:2 regarding the Old Testament law. It was designed to reveal we are sinners by our inability to keep the law--hence we need a Savior to save us from this law of sin and death. It is preceded with "There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit."\n\n"He is the only one who can forgive you of your sins and restore your broken relationship with God because of your sins."\nJesus said plainly, "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life, no man comes to the Father but by Me." Peter also said in Acts 4:12,  "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved."\n\nObviously, Randy, Paula and Simon didn't get it. It was very gospel, which is a valid genre to sing. I think she will do just fine next voting session.

Part 1: Nothing\nPart 2: I don't automatically believe everything that is written.\nPart 3: Agreed and  not only is it nonsense, it's not going to happen and the less-aware amongst us perpetuate the myth as they cannot face the reality of life and death without believing in false promises. They may not ever learn the truth, which is a great pity.

From what I understand, Bruce had no formal vocal training. \n\nBut singing in bars for years, in the smoke and noise, has to count for training of some sort!

Jesus said to him in reply, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah. For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my heavenly Father. And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it. I will give you the keys to the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven." (Matthew 16:17-19)\n\nThe Catholic Church believes the Lord made Simon alone, whom he named Peter, the "rock" of his Church. He gave him the keys of his Church and instituted him shepherd of the whole flock.\n\nThe current Pope, Benedict XVI, is the senior pastor of 1.1 billion Catholics, the direct successor of Simon Peter.\n\nPope Benedict XVI was born Joseph Ratzinger in 1927. Here is his official Vatican biography: http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/benedict_xvi/biography/documents/hf_ben-xvi_bio_20050419_short-biography_en.html\n\nWith love in Christ.
