I have found that most Christians say that either they love Jesus or they don't want to go to hell as a reason for thier continued Christianity. Do you think that fear is a valid reason to be a Christian? Should we all be scared to go to Hell? And would that be the reason I should become a Christain?

I'm supposed to be here for another 3 hours. Am I stupid for even asking this question?

The thing about god was just to be able to keep this question in this catagory.

Those of you who believe in eternal damnation must know people who died without ever accepting God, Jesus, etc. Do you ever think about them being tortured and burned alive at every moment of every day? Do you miss them? Does it sadden you to know that even if you get to Heaven, they will never be allowed in?

I hear odd tidbits in the general media about what the Kaballah actually is, and what language in which it is written. I've even heard some say that you do not have to be able to read the text, they believe just holding the book is enough? Is this ancient text available in print?

I have come across MANY poeple that use the following excuse for not believing in God:
If God is real, how can he allow bad things to happen to people like murder, rape and child abuse?
I answer in one of two ways and ask the Yahoo audience these same questions:

1 is parker brothers at fault if someone cheats at their game? THEY mad the game, THEY made the rules. so who is at fault?
2 OK say there is no God. now who's fault is it for murder, rape, and child abuse? How does the existence of God relieve man of personal responsability?

1. talked to you personally and did something to prove that he/she/it was God by stoping time or something that breaks the laws of physics, would you become a believer or would you still be skeptical?
2. come down to earth more often? lets... say twice a year. Then people would have no reason not to believe but we still have free will.

I know I can look on a website and find out the definition etc. I guess I just want to hear about it and what it means to someone of that faith or from someone who has looked into different religions.
Thanks

I am sorry if this question seems a little rude or pompous, but the other day I was having an Yahoo messenger chat with a person who otherwise seemed intelligent, but who had somehow gotten a belief that the King James Bible was a translation from Latin into English rather than from Hebrew and Greek into English.

Where do people get ideas like that?

It's the Douay-Rheims bible which was a 17th century translation from the Latin.

This guy was also surprised to learn that the Textus Receptus is a Greek text despite having a Latin title.

I don't mean to embarass this one guy, because I have seen a lot of strange things said about the KJV by others. And it isn't that I am one of those KJV-only fundies. But I just wonder where so many people get so many crazy ideas from. In this particular guys case, I assume someone at his Church must have told him the KJV was a translation from Latin.

Someone on Yahoo answers said it does, he used the Revised Standard Version. Different versions might have different opinions.

I answered a question regarding Christians, atheists, and agnostics. I was reported for communicating. Does anyone else out there think that is was probably a Christian that reported me and do you think that is abuse of the " Report Abuse " link?

I guess christians are only used to talking to other dumb Christians. So, they think this dumb god and air thing actually can convince people that god exist. CHRISTIANS ARE CONSTANTLY PROOVING THAT THEY ARE STUPID
