The other day I stumbled upon a really interesting website called Yahoo! Answers. It’s been around awhile, sure, but it’s new to me. So I jumped into the ‘Religion and Spirituality’ section, and could not believe the amount of questions there. “Does God Exist?” “Can I fool Jesus if I pretend to Believe?” and on and on and on. I spent an hour and a half on there and could have gone even longer! It’s amazing the amount of people on the net who are looking for something to fill the void in their life. So, if you want to help a few people find the truth, go check it out!

There’s a lot of questions going around these days with all the political types wonder who’s going to be the democratic nominee (boring), how McCain got the republican nominee (go Ron Paul!), and what they both hold for the future of our country. Personally, I don’t see it mattering much unless Obama gets elected. He seems like a strong leader from what I’ve seen of him (I don’t agree w/ where he stands on a few issues; isn’t it always the lesser of two evils when picking candidates anyways tho?), whereas the other two just seem like more of the same of what we’ve got the past 8 years.
Other questions float about as well. Theological questions. Philosophical questions. But I don’t think I’ve ever heard a more important question that what Jesus asked of Peter in the Gospel of Matthew, chapter 16, verses 13 through 17:
13When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who do people say the Son of Man is?”
14They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”
15“But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?”
‘What about you?’ indeed. This might be the most important question facing us today. Who do we say that Jesus Christ is? Is he the son of God, as he claimed to be, or maybe just a prophet or good teacher? What does it mean for our lives, our future, our past?
If you’ve ever wondered about these questions, or any other theological or philosophical question, I’ve added a new page to my site, aptly titled “Ask a Question!”
Feel free to ask whatever question has been floating around your mind!
I’ll give you a little tidbit on the answer to Jesus’ question tho
16Simon Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
17Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by man, but by my Father in heaven.
Enjoy!

Is it possible to find God on the internet? Well, if you go to www.yahoo.com it’s pretty easy. Every link on the front page linked to either information about who God is (wikis or just general information sites), or sites about Christianity, Judaism, or just religion in general. Also, the image results yeilded good stuff as well! Yahoo!, you may be bought by Microsoft soon, but at least you haven’t sold your soul
WTG!
