You may want to read Edgar Cayce, The Sleeping Prophet.\n\nHe was a devout Sunday school teacher and psychic that came to understand reincarnation in the Christian sense and used angels and other spirit beings to understand and to offer methods to heal others.\n\nAccording to him, most of us should be able tap into these consciousness of these higher beings as he did and aid our spiritual growth.\n\nI, myself have a spirit guide as do most people ... I just try to listen.

i know that God has put a LOT of people in this world. And the fact that some of them are shady is NO surprise to me, God spoke of those people in 2 Peter 2, and as those people exist, so do the people that God has truly ordained to do the work of God. \nI trust someone Till they give me reason not to. and when the Gift of Discernment tells me when something is off, that would be God telling me who is really for him, and who is against him.\n2 Peter 2:1 (Whole Chapter) \n[ The Danger of False Teachers ] But there were also false prophets in Israel, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will cleverly teach destructive heresies and even deny the Master who bought them. In this way, they will bring sudden destruction on themselves. \n\n\n2 Peter 2:12 (Whole Chapter) \nThese false teachers are like unthinking animals, creatures of instinct, born to be caught and destroyed. They scoff at things they do not understand, and like animals, they will be destroyed.

THANK YOU! I believe, in all sincerity, that everything that exists is a reflection of the Divine. So, I ought to be able to look at ANYTHING and learn something about Deity. Kind of like looking at an artist's work and knowing from that work something about not just the art but the Artist too. Being what I am, which is human, it should be easier to see Divine attributes mirrored in things like me. In other words, I ought to be able to look at other people and see or learn things pertaining to the Divine Nature. So I check out the race as a whole. One constant that I find all over the world and down through time is ... Humor! With that in mind the answer to your question is a definite ... YES! And with THAT in mind ... Ain't it a relief knowin' that? LOL! ~ Peace & Blessings ~

Gandhiji's teachings are very influential on my life. Mahatma Gandhi and Mother Teresa are two of my most admired heros (and yes I'm aware they came from two different religions...yet they seemed remarkable the same with regards to social justice and religious tolerance) as is Rev Dr Martin Luther King, Jr. I know many of my friends are also somewhat influenced by Gandhiji, some more than others. The way I conduct my life is largely influenced by the teachings and perspectives that those I admire most have shared with the world.

okay, how about this list of famous scientists, philosophers, and inventors who believe in God?\nalbert einstein\nthomas edison\nanthony fynn\nthomas jefferson\nbenjamin franklin\nisaac newton\nisaac asimov\nmichael faraday\nfrederick hoyle\nfrancis crick\ngeorge washington\nabraham lincoln\n\nhow some of these names ended up on your list, i'll never know; as their quotes clearly signify their belief in an intelligent designer at the very least.  "atheist" implies belief in no god at all.  \n\nmost of the names on there are just faces or names or voices anyway.  you asked for "scientists, inventors, and philosophers"  bjork is not a philosopher, neither is barry manilow.  hearing them sing is one thing, but they certainly should not be classified as authorities when i comes to spiritual doctrine.

Believe in your heart that there is no god.  Knowing this will give you the confidence to get up every day and live your life for the human species.  Be kind to your neighbors and most likely they will be kind to you.  Promote our species and planet to the top of your priorities.  Doing this will empower you with a sense of purpose and urgency rather than guilt from a fictional god.

"When the student is ready, the teacher appears."\n\nI think that you recognized and prized this girl's perspective (for want of a better word) because her values reflected, or helped you identify, your own. \n\nThere's a lot to be said for calm reflective evaluation rather than snap judgements.\n\nYou were lucky to have been exposed to this wise person when you were.\n\nCompassion seems to be a prominent theme in all the major religions. It seems to me that fanactics and politicians twist the doctrines and the scriptures to suit their own devices. They are not representative of the "religion" as a whole. \n\nI could go on and on, but I won't :-))\n\nI, personally, enjoy your bright, open-minded outlook as reflected in your posts here. You seem (to me, for what it is worth) to be a true "seeker."

This was featured in a lot of papers. It seems he is seeking life coaching from a 'mystic guru' and each symbol means something different. It is something for him to concentrate on and receive wisdom thereby apparently.

The Dali Lama and how very impressed I am by him.  He is the representative of Buddhism to the world and probably the most intelligent and honest religious leader I have ever heard speak.  He also writes some of the best books I've read.  Based on that, I always feel kindly towards the religion and it's followers.
