POPSRight Christians vs. Wrong Christians Friends, I can't even go on here. Look at my face, see how flushed I am? You get me going on about the Catholics and I'm likely to have a heart attack. I just thank God that everything our youngsters know about the Catholic Church is what they've been hearing on TV. Most of our Truly Saved® Christian children are so terrified of priests that they can't even sleep at night. Let's open our hymnals to page 217 - Just As I Am, singing from the second stanza. . . "Just as I am. . ." Truly Saved® Christians The content of the clip was written by a pastor! *Real* Christians of course have a registered trademark and a $750 million budget. If anyone can spot the teachings of Christ anywhere in this "sermon", would you please point them out to me? I seem to be temporarily blinded by the hypocrisy of it all. But let's open up youtube and have a little sing-a-long, shall we? Praise the Lord. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ugZq9hiuCJo

POPSPraying May Increase Brain Power The concept of neurotheology presents an interesting take on the conventional belief that science and religion are opposites, housed in entirely different segments of the human mind and soul. Newberg’s studies show that there’s no specific area of the brain that responds to spiritual stimulation. Rather, “religious experiences fire neurons in several different parts of the brain, just like other events do.”

POPSWhat I Believe We believe obedience is a fine quality in dogs and young children, but not in adults. Like America's right-wingers, we believe in individual responsibility, hard work to get ahead, and stern punishment for serious crimes. We believe big government should not be blindly trusted. But unlike most right-wing leaders, we mean it. Like America's left-wingers, we believe in equal treatment under law, war as a last (not first) resort, and sensible stewardship of natural resources. We believe big business should not be blindly trusted. But unlike most left-wing leaders, we mean it. Like libertarians, we believe it's wrong and reprehensible to arrest people for what they think, believe, look like, wear, eat, smoke, drink, inhale, inject, or otherwise do to themselves. But unlike many libertarians, we're not obsessed with the gold standard, we don't believe incorporation is humanity's highest achievement, and we don't believe everything in life comes down to dollars and cents

POPSBeing, Consciousness and Everything The World is as It is, .... and the world is as you see it. As the limited self, we appear to be localized co-creators subject to imperfection and death. As the Self, we are eternally coincident with the Original Base. In Reality, we are that Supreme Being. I am That, you are That, all of this is That, there is nothing but That ...... Natural Great Perfection. Why are we here? How did we get here? Where are we going? I am always on the hunt for the union of religion, philosophy and science and this article was great read if you're into stuff like that. :)

POPSBeer Versus Religion Jesus was crucified for our sins — beer is just pasteurized. Jesus is free; beer starts at $2.50 a six-pack. Holy water doesn't affect your sense of balance. You don't have to worry about getting religion stains on your clothes. Jesus is who you need in emergencies — beer is only useful when you find a burning bush. http://s143.photobucket.com/albums/r150/thisnamecantbetaken/?action=view¤t=2008-05-10-Picnic059Small.jpg

POPSChildren of the Corn Hopefully the "children of the corn" will be kept out of the White House. America, and the world, deserves better. Now go VOTE and defeat those nasty little ankle-biters! .:lol:

POPSWhat Would It Take To Prove You Wrong? This is a powerful question to ask yourself when examining your beliefs. Doing so honestly, will make you a clearer and deeper thinker. It can be the difference between a person who simply revels in wishful thinking, and a heroic seeker of truth. Take a deep look into your own belief systems, and ask yourself what evidence it would take to convince you they were wrong. It's an uncomfortable exercise, but an important one.

POPSMilitia Ex-leader Confesses To Child Sacrifice The evil mankind is capable of, never ceases to appal and sicken me. I cannot imagine what superstitious nonsense one has to tell oneself, to think ANY kind of murder, in the name of ANY religion or for ANY political agenda, is okay. Especially the murder of children. :(

POPSSex - The Secret Gate to Eden The great, secret, universal truth to everything is... *wait for it* ... the orgasm!! "Only for the initiated", but it applies to ALL religions (apparently.) "To reach unification with the divine, one must... " Naaah, watch it yourself. *LOL* It's a pretty good video though, it sounds really *holy*. Are YOU prepared to receive this hidden knowledge? Haha. :p *sigh* So many religions, so little time.

POPS30 days : Muslims and America How much do we know about the Muslim faith? What's it like to be a Muslim in America? Can a Christian be open to the Muslim faith, yet still stay true to his own? This movie gives a peek inside a Muslim family.

POPSYou Reap What You Sow What you think you create, energy is never lost only transformed etc. Even quantum physics seems to suggest there is some sort of karma. What exactly IS karma, if it exists at all? Divine retribution / reward of sorts, or just actions / reactions? Hmm...

POPSBeyond Belief Science, religion, reason and survival. Go to the site to watch the videos. It's bit dry, but great food for thought if you can stay awake through it. .:)

POPSWhat The Bleep Do We Know? Consciousness, quantum physics and the link between the two. "How far down the rabbit hole do you want to go?" Check out this link too, to see some more images taken by Mr Emoto, mentioned in the film and here's a link that explains the theories, by Dr John Hagelin

POPSBeyond Intractability A free knowledge base on more constructive approaches to destructive conflict. In today's world of wars, some knowledge and understanding of how and why conflicts arise, and what we can do to solve them etc, can only be helpful. LOTS more at the site for all aspiring "peacemakers". .;)

POPSOrthopraxy over Orthodoxy Beliefs lead to behaviors, behaviors create habits, and habits shape character. Drudging around endlessly through chapters and verses of the Bible (or the Koran), has never been one my most favourite thing to do. (Sorry! I find it long-winded and boring! *LOL*) I don't think getting lost in the details or analysing and interpreting holy writings to death, will get me any nearer the "truth". To me, it's the overall message that matters and that should be the same, no matter what religion (or not) one chooses to follow. Love thy neighbour, do unto others, love don't hate and do the right thing. That's pretty much my *religion* and the long and short of it all I reckon and it works whether you are an atheist or a believer. One size fits all. .:)

POPSEducate Your Parents! Geeez. There's just something creepy about this kid, that reminds me of myself when I was little. All-knowing and opinionated... naaaa, I think it's the clothes. *LOL* (PS) BEWARE! There's a bit of foul language in the music at the end. Now ya know. (The f-word...)

POPSThe Day I Died I'm going to be thinking about this all day! This was incredibly interesting! If the whole concept of consciousness after death interests you, you should watch this video. If you don't have time to watch the whole thing, watch the last half hour or at least the last 15 minutes It's absolutely fascinating!
