I asked about how the earth was populated and got a lot of good and some goofy answers. I am seriously asking this question because I would like to have a better understanding of the bible... is it symbolic, actual or a combination of the two. I believe that it is a combination of the two.

I am christian but have thought that it would probably be a good thing if we spent longer periods in Church on sundays like the Mormons do. I do not advocate the teachings of this sect of religion but I do think we should spend more time in church then just an hour.
what do you think?

Why do they beleive Allah is some evil guy, and/or isn't true? Don't you know that Allah means God, it is just in another language? It is like you people are so arrogant that you believe english is the only right language.

Please note that you know Allah means God except in another language. If you still think Allah is different from God, list why please.

I usually dont, but there are times when insecurities just pop out in my head. Plus I'm very shy, so I guess that doesnt help much.

3. "You shake my bones and you rattle my brain,????????"
4. "You think that people would have had enough of ???"

Isn't Protestantism about stripping down the faith bit by bit by someone rejecting a part of it then founding a new religion with one less belief about God then the next person doing the same until nothing of the original faith is left (atheism)?

With over 33,000 different Protestant versions of Jesus, some denying His divinity, denying the part or all of the bible, denying His Lordship, denying the Holy Trinity, denying His gender, and some even denying that He even existed, do you see how this is a slippery slope?

There are some within the Catholic Church who are like Judas (Iscariot), but the Theology is rock solid. There are also many great examples of Catholic saints. I believe that it doesn't make sense to leave Peter because of Judas.

By Protestant, I mean non-Catholic and non-Orthodox Christian.

It is either hot, cold, wet, humid. You name it we are never happy. Yet you can almost guarantee every conversation we have the weather features in it. Are we a nation of weather obsessives or what?

I really hate the idea of hunting - deer hunting, bear hunting, etc. Why kill these animals just for the thrill? It's so sad..

But would it make me a hypocrite if I'm not a vegetarian and I eat steak, chicken, etc. ?
