Yes I think the bible F'ed up a lot of things...well the new one anyway.
Take the commandment Thou shall not kill.
Ok Thou shall not kill,what?
I'm assuming people.;
But you never really know and should we leave such a commadment up to man-kind to interpret for us?

If dragons were aliens... think about it...

Their spaceship might emit a large amount of heat from its exhaust and that might cause some burning of stuff.

Since their spaceships fly, and are probably bigger than a house, people on Earth would look at it as a monster.

Fossils of dinosaurs might be evidence of one of these space-ship "monsters", only dead.

Now just imagine if one of these spaceships landed somewhere, already probably burning something in the process unless they shut their engines off and floated down. The aliens hop off their ship and thinking that its safe, discover that instead some humans saw them and are now freaking out. Now imagine that these aliens, instead of being little green men from Mars are anthropomorphic dragon-like creatures no larger than 6 or 7 feet tall, have powerful wings on their backs, short muzzles, friendly eyes, and a large cranium for a mighty brain... wouldn't these creatures look like -baby- dragons? Perhaps demons?

In Buddhism it is believed that we should try to be good to our fellowman ,neighbours,try to good acts, and it has been seen that Buddhists have been regarded by many people Historians ,social researchers,etc To be the most peaceful people on the planet
No body can deny that their religion does not enforce good acts and respect for all creation of nature (they do not believe in harming of any living creation).Jesus was all about peace ,but what does your religion says whether you are a criminal,rapist molester , terrorist etc you repentexcept christ and you can go to heaven not any other way
Can you with a straight face say that your religion and culture promotes peace, if they do then their are historical records of
Your people killing Red indians, Aborignes,exploiting Asian colonioes Churchmen Killing many people as witches and heretics,CONVERSIONS by ECONOMIC COERCIONS Bloddy pagan wars,World wars etc.

It seems to me that no matter how much you sin, you are forgiven, if that is the case, then why even make moral judgments on people when we know they'll be forgiven. I don't believe it's that simple but i'm no pastor, priest, shiek or preacher, im just some dude. What's the deal with a priest going to see a man who is about to be executed and forgiving him of his sins, now this horrible person is going to heaven right? Well i see a lot of contradictions in all religions and everyone always tries to justify theirs by saying things like "Free Will", "All Forgiving", "He died for ours Sins", "It is your choice", "He does not control your life", well i don't know but it's a world of contradiction and the only God that speaks to people is $$$.

Recently I asked the question of where did we come from & I got some interesting & typical answers, well everyone who says God & the Bible. Just curious has it ever crossed your mind that the Bible may just be a book a story a novel written to tell of what one person may have created in his/her mind? I have Faith that something of a greater power is out there but food for thought. Tell me what you think.

Everyone just take a deep breath, and realize that whatever you believe is not absolute truth. And before I get the Christian hatemail, this is for everybody. We are all cosmic dunces, can't we just get along?

It seems that most Christians feel that if you don't subscribe to a religion, then you must be an atheist. What is the mindset here? If you aren't with us you must be completely against us? There are those of us who feel there are questions about our origins that science and philosophy haven't answered yet... but by no means think that any religion we have provides an answer either. What is the opinion on skeptics, agnostics, or even Deists (such as Thomas Jefferson for instance).

Christians hold that Sunday is the Sabbath. Allegedly God created the heavens and the Earth in six days, resting on the seventh. The connection between creation and Sabbath is a clear one. HOWEVER, how does one know that God started His work on a Monday?

What if he started on a Thursday? Does that mean that the Sabbath would be a Wednesday?

How does any Christian know - with any great certainty - on what day of the week that Sabbath should fall?

This is a serious question (for those who would bash me for asking such a question).

Thanks in advance for your serious responses.
