  1. What is the afterlife like?

    khminh replied to EGspirit's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    No problem. What I said is my speculation. I cannot prove or disprove it. You seem to be concerned about two different things: your identity in your eyes and your identity in God's eyes. If this god...

  2. What is the afterlife like?

    khminh replied to EGspirit's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    Then you could have just said that your view about afterlife is based on the Bible. Why did you bring up other people's NDE who match up your biblical view? Are you implying that a true NDE has to...

  3. What is the afterlife like?

    khminh replied to EGspirit's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    Not to burst your positivity, but I am gay actually. I have yet had the luck of meeting the right man to fulfill my romance destiny. What I said to you is an ideal situation. My uncle-in-law passed...

  4. What is the afterlife like?

    khminh replied to EGspirit's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I agree. Eternal sleep is not so horrible after all, is it? What you said reminds me of the last scene of The Notebook. That is what I want. My last moment on earth would be in the arms of my husband....

  5. What is the afterlife like?

    khminh replied to EGspirit's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    You are a lot more humble than many Christian nurses. They are literally obsessed about their eternity. If this country is a Christian country in literal sense, I think I would choose "eternal rest"...

  6. What is the afterlife like?

    khminh replied to EGspirit's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    There is nothing wrong with the way you feel. I am only rational to certain extent. Otherwise, I would be an atheist. I do believe that there is an afterlife. What exactly is that afterlife? I don't...

  7. What is the afterlife like?

    khminh replied to EGspirit's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    If being out of existence means eternal rest, I am all right with that state. Rest is not a bad thing. Sometimes life is difficult. At the end of a day, all I want is resting in my boyfriend's arms...

  8. What is the afterlife like?

    khminh replied to EGspirit's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    That is typical assumption from evangelical fundamentalist nurses. In their eyes, not believing in Jesus equates not being spiritual or worse, following Satan. Personally, I don't know what the...

  9. Do You Have To Be Religious/Spiritual to be a good Nurse?

    khminh replied to Soliloquy's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I almost agree with everything you said until you say this. No offense. You are the privileged majority. You can lecture me all day about "a very small percentage of people out of the thousands I have...

  10. Do You Have To Be Religious/Spiritual to be a good Nurse?

    khminh replied to Soliloquy's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    You are correct. I don't hide my intolerance. When Christians hear me say "I don't worship your god", that is a good cue for them to stop pursuing the passive aggressive tactic. He kept going with...

  11. Do You Have To Be Religious/Spiritual to be a good Nurse?

    khminh replied to Soliloquy's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I admit that I don't get much about socialization at allnurses. What I see is usually advice, tips, stories about patients and how to better nursing care for them. Then there is arguments about...

  12. Do You Have To Be Religious/Spiritual to be a good Nurse?

    khminh replied to Soliloquy's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    I don't think so. How many nurses do you think actually put themselves aside for patients' sake in this board? Just a click and you can see they take advantage of this learning forum to recruit souls....

  13. Would you pray with a student?

    khminh replied to smudges.blips's topic in School

    I could have done that, but then someone will think that I seek attention. I gave that scenario not because I want to coerce a nurse to practice my religion with me. I simply point out bias OP shows...

  14. Would you pray with a student?

    khminh replied to smudges.blips's topic in School

    My posts have nothing to do with you. They respond to MrNurse, Brenda F. Johnson, and OldDude. What you believe in about Christianity and how you conduct yourself is none of my business. If you act...

  15. Would you pray with a student?

    khminh replied to smudges.blips's topic in School

    You said that Then you say that A simple yes or no will suffice, and I won't bother you with replying. You go with this explanation for some reason I don't know. You want to continue this...

  16. Do You Have To Be Religious/Spiritual to be a good Nurse?

    khminh replied to Soliloquy's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    Absolutely not. I have been an immigrant for 5 years and a naturalized citizen for 10 years. I have never participated in any vote that outlaws Christians practicing their faith at work. NEVER. I'm...

  17. Would you pray with a student?

    khminh replied to smudges.blips's topic in School

    I responded to Brenda F. Johnson, BSN. She believed that this country was founded on Christianity. Such attitude excluded people outside that religion. Thus I had to say something. Then Mr Old Dude...

  18. Would you pray with a student?

    khminh replied to smudges.blips's topic in School

    The best value I learn from American society is honesty. I don't go around telling people what I believe in. Unlike Christians, I have no desire to spread any revelation. Doing so assumes that I have...

  19. Would you pray with a student?

    khminh replied to smudges.blips's topic in School

    If you care to read what I said to OldDude, you can see that I will not lie to people that I don't believe in Yahweh if they reveal to me that they are Christians. I'm happy to help them out of my...

  20. Would you pray with a student?

    khminh replied to smudges.blips's topic in School

    Of course I have bias against Christianity. What do you expect me to say? "Thank you for thinking that I deserve to burn over and over for not believing in Jesus"? Giving me a carrot and threatening...

  21. Would you pray with a student?

    khminh replied to smudges.blips's topic in School

    Nonsense. Physical reality is what it is. I wasn't born in a Christian culture. I don't have emotional connection to Christianity. Until you can prove it to me your idea about Yahweh is true, I have...

  22. Would you pray with a student?

    khminh replied to smudges.blips's topic in School

    Well, from my experience, it's the Christians who initiate conversations about religion. It's the tenet of their faith. "Have you been saved?" "Do you know where you are going when you die?" "I will...

  23. Would you pray with a student?

    khminh replied to smudges.blips's topic in School

    I don't believe in your god. I am a Buddhist. I grew up in Vietnam, a culture where Christianity is not the dominant faith. I lived in a Catholic neighborhood for 13 years before I immigrated to the...

  24. Would you pray with a student?

    khminh replied to smudges.blips's topic in School

    No, thank you. I don't need you to respect my opinion or even respect me. If my ideas are BS, they are BS. If I follow those ideas, I am a terrible person, and I need to be challenged on them. That is...

  25. Do You Have To Be Religious/Spiritual to be a good Nurse?

    khminh replied to Soliloquy's topic in Spirituality, Religion

    The difference is that Christians do what they do using the Bible to back their action. I haven't seen any Buddhist citing Pali scriptures to justify their action. Same thing with Wiccan, Jain, Sikh,...
