Just felt like belting this out:

And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon England's mountains green
And was the holy lamb of God
On England's pleasant pastures seen

And did the countenance divine
Shine forth upon our clouded hills
And was Jerusalem builded here
Among those dark Satanic mills

Bring me my bow of burning gold
Bring me my arrows of desire
Bring me my spears o'clouds unfold
Bring me my chariot of fire

I will not cease from mental fight
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand
'Til we have built Jerusalem
In England's green and pleasant land
'Til we have built Jerusalem
In England's green and pleasant land

nite Victoria

perhaps the big wig should pop along to the church i go to coz i can tell you now...there aint no 'nice story' about it....take a look one day at the old testament...not much nice happening at all

xx

nite all off to bed can hardly keep my eyes open

they teach that the old testerment is a nice story.they anoused it on the tele ages ago one of the big wig cannons or whoever it is in charge

not the c of e church i go to

C of E

Victoria..you lost me...who teaches that the old testament's is just a story but believe the new?

Best one to me is the Old testerment is now just a story but still believe in the new testerment.So for years they teach its all true and now only new testerment .and the Holy trinity they teach the father the son and the holy ghost are the same entity.example when jesuswas in the desert and god spoke to him he was talking to himself.and they expect you to believe that .I don't think so they are all differant

well it was used coz everyone knows that religion ......


YES The church of England is just as bad if not worse coz they do their changes quietly ...

ie : Love your neighbour....unless he /she is gay ....living together not married ......

Not just the catholic church that changes all the time the church of england is as bad

Can I say

The churches are started by "good meaning" people for the ruling of the earth............

but the Choathlic church changes its rules each time we get a new Pope ......eeeerrrrr .....lost !

so that means in my eyes that the PERSON in CHARGE of the "church" lays down the rules! Therefore what is written in the bible is read or looked at in different ways by different people!

meaning Total confusion

nite Karrie sleep well I enjoyed the discussion to

I have to be off now.. but thanks for an interesting discussion..

sleep well everyone

I do believe in religion but not the church

Thanks Colin. Enjoy your walk.

(Sorry got caught up in another thread lol)

I would presume that there are some people who believe in God the Creator who do not believe in an organised religion. :-)

if you believe in God , Victoria... do you believe in religion.. i have just always assumed that one goes hand in hand with the other

I think a lot of people are "spiritual" but don't feel the need to be part of any Church or set of beliefs.

I give thanks to the Creator everyday for the beauty of nature...........I get whatever it is that my Spirit needs when up to my elbows in compost.....lol

bye webster

Karrie its what some believe.I believe in god but I don't believe in the church

why couldnt we have evolved through chance? why has there always got to be a plan?
