Karilla-
I have also always been convinced that I would not see my fortieth birthday. I could imagine being 25, 30, 35, but not forty. It was just a blank. When I developed Chronic Pain 3 years ago I wasn't too surprised. I actually appreciate it showing up. I'd much rather be praying for death than praying for life, wouldn't you? At least its one prayer that will eventually be answered

Yea, i know, i need to wake up and see all the sheep.

I'm pretty sure turning your back on God will only turn into disaster.
That is not freedom, that is spiritual slavery.
You serve your own master, in this case self.
You damn yourself. You will not live again in a heavenly realm.
Most likely you will live a few lives in a less than friendly place in order to learn the lesson that you can't ignore the omnipotent being God.
The collective consciousness has a way of paying you back for your deeds.
Doing nothing is just about the same as murdering someone.
I do not recommend this path, the unenligthened one.

Actually, I believe that doing nothing while knowing the 'truth' makes you worse them them (religiously speaking) - I agree with many of your points sb2012, but not this one. its easy to get frustrated with others, but not sharing your knowledge will damn you for sure!
If we cannot end now our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity.
Our problems are man-made, therefore they may be solved by man. No problem of human destiny is beyond human beings.
Mankind must put an end to war or war will put an end to mankind.
is it possible that all of the end of days programming for networks such as the History Channel are reinforcing people's feelings on this subject matter?
Dude, sorry to be the one to bring this to your attention, but it has only been since the 1960's that mankind could be wiped completely from the face of the Earth in a nuclear cloud of destruction within any 5 minute span of time.

bad weather - disasters – human suffering - tyrants trying to control others. Welcome to planet Earth. Has there ever been a time when these things were not in place? I hate to burst everyone’s "this time is special" bubble but it is not. We tend to perceive the world as worse because we are experiencing it. It seems to be human nature to believe we have it worse than others in the past, but we don’t. If anything, it is just the opposite. Despite the bumps in the road the world gets better and better. I know that won’t be a popular opinion here because many ATS members like to wallow in doom and gloom.

Of course. Allah is the one God, and Mohammad is his prophet. Those who foolishly worship a Man and a Spirit also as God will ultimately be shown the error of their ways.
