Topic: Health and Religion - page 53. (Read 210900 times)

What the fuck? Imagine I'm God and I know everything that's going to happen. It makes no sense for me to get mad at people I created for things they are going to do if I knew about it beforehand. There is no need to forgive anyone because I already know what's going to happen. If I didn't want that to happen then I wouldn't have created it, no?

Right! It's not healthy to beat each other up over religion. It's not healthy to have religious wars. Health and Religion.

the creation of its socialization with the foundation of ideas even not infrequently also to each other express opinions either individually or groups in society, but the notion of not far from the religious base to maintain the atmosphere of mutual respect when expressing opinions. in the present day each individual often acts only with a selfish sense rather than the basis of ethical norms even religion.

That's why this is a Health and Religion thread. Religion affects health. But so does science... for a different thread that could be called Health and Science. In other words, health is part of what connects science and religion.

The ways someone thinks is because of his/her IQ. If you really think about it, science and religion are two different things. If a person starts to compare, one of the two will end up believing that the other one is not making any sense. What I am telling to my child is that there are things that even science can't explain and there are miracles that  can only happen if you are believing with God. Although there are only few, there are stories that a serious disease was gone without taking any medicine, just faith in God.

We all know that health affect when we doing our work. But for me there are 2 kind of health. First one is our health body that can be treated by medicnes or operations. The second one is our spiritual health as i mentioned even though we did not see but our spiritual health can be affect when we're not usually go to churh, pray. And bebelie in god.we easily depressed and go down by over thinking. But if you have healthy both body and spiritual you can overcome all of those things.

Perfection requires justice. God couldn't just forgive without destroying His Own perfection. The sacrifice of Jesus included the punishment for mankind that would maintain the perfection of God.

The perfection of mankind needed to be maintained, because God had judged mankind so extremely good at the time of the creation, that God placed His spirit within mankind. In order to maintain the perfection of His own judgment about mankind, He needed to maintain the perfection of mankind. The perfection having been maintained in the sacrifice of Jesus, mankind is now free to be his own agent... to accept God's perfection for himself, or to reject it.

Since God is love, He truly wishes mankind to accept the perfection of Godness or God-likeness. And since God is love and just, He realizes that He must not coerce any man in the judgment that each person makes.

There is no way to adequately and properly explain the things that are involved in the salvation of man. Suffice it to say that God is holding the salvation choice open for each person as long as that person lives. And since Jesus was God as well as man, mankind is being brought into God-likeness. Maintaining health is simply man using the strength of God that God has placed in each and every one of us.

This is a complex question Astargath. To start with we must understand what the Bible means when it talks of sacrifice. That in itself is a very deep topic. I believe Jordan Peterson articulates it far better then I could so I have linked to his discussion of Biblical sacrifice below.

Once we understand the purpose and meaning of sacrifice we can move on to the second part of your question why might tremendous sacrifice from heaven be necessary to save humanity?

To try to grasp this it is helpful to try and imagine what the world would be like without Christianity.

This is very difficult to do because Christianity is the foundation western culture was built upon so you have to return back to 100 AD or so and envision an alternative future world starting with a collapsing Roman Empire.

The power of Christianity in reshaping the world cannot be understated. We see this in the transformation of Russia as it returns to its orthodox roots. We see it in the rapid transformation of China where Christianity is currently spreading like wildfire laying the foundation of a post communistic future. It is perhaps most clearly displayed on the Korean Peninsula where a people with a shared culture, race, and average IQ is split into two halves with Christianity punished with death in one and widely embraced in the other.



The argument that Christianity and the sacrifice at its heart was necessary to save mankind is not a trivial one. Given the facts on the ground it could very well be true in more ways then we know.

I'm living without religion and feel myself healthy enough. I don't believe in this supernatural stuff and God in general so just working out and it's fine.

I believe that if you have the brains then you know what's above us, and if you are to smart you start to ignore it.

Smart people have a lesser propensity for conformism and therefore are less likely to accept religious dogmas. The cause-and-effect relationship of the intellect with conformism itself, of course, requires a separate study.

These studies are very interesting. I think it depends a lot on emotions. In different religions a different degree of comfort. Judging by the data it is better to be a mormon

Some religious beliefs and practices have negative influences on our health.  Example is blood donation. Certain religious groups believe that it's a sin to donate, or receive blood from someone. Hence critically ill people are left to die whilst there's an alternative that could have saved their lives. 

I was quite surprised when I came across this topic for discussion.Religion is a really controversial especially when it is as it fits in with science, I totally agree with you.It will be interesting to read the opinions of other users

So much information and discussion is so vivid and interesting.Religion has always been a subject of controversy and controversy,and even more so than that of science.Very interesting arguments in my opinion.

Are you seriously discussing this?What is just utter nonsense.Religion for me very distant field of course but I never thought she can have any relationship with the level of human intelligence

God sacrificed himself to himself to forgive us. Another nonsense from the bible right there. It makes absolutely no sense and we are not even saved, we are still here, aren't we? Why did an omniscient and all powerful god need to sacrifice his ''son'' to forgive humanity? Why not just forgive us? What is there to forgive anyways, he already knew everything that would happen.

What makes it unfair is the unfairness of mankind toward God. God gave His all in Jesus death on the cross. He did it to save mankind. But here you are, not only accepting the imperfection of being sinful in the first place, but extending your imperfection to the rejecting of the great sacrifice Jesus did to save you. You ain't fair. Certainly not to God.

Wow! This is about as close to seeing the truth as you have gotten. Solomon, possibly the wisest person of all time, said something very similar to this in his book of Ecclesiastes in the Bible.



Note that, the reason we need death for purification, is that we are very strong willed. You know how strong willed you are, that you won't accept all kinds of evidence for the existence of God and eternal life. But even though I accept these things, my will is so strong that I won't accept being purified in other ways.

We are like computer programs. We can't be changed while we are running. If the programmer finds a bug in the program, he essentially has to shut the program down before he can fix the bug. Same with us.

But that is as far as the computer example is similar to us. We are much greater than a computer program. Even when our life program is shut down in death, some of us will not allow ourselves to be reprogrammed even after death. That is the reason for Heaven and Hell.
