Who would they say is persecuting them?
Who would be cast into the lake of fire?
Wouldn't Judgement day be kind of boring?

I am working as a waitress at a denny's restrant in japan. and I am a japanese. and the restrant is near by some hotels so many visiters to japan go there. (especially american,chinese,korean) and I realized that ,when Im getting orders,most americans say something really selfish. ex,they try to order something not on the menu,and if I say No,they ask me why,(is there chef in there? or you just warm frozen food up,that's why you cant serve me that?) and they tell me to take something in the dish away ( can you take bacons out from this spaghetti?) (can you warm up the beer?) in the case of japanese, we never ever do such things,if i dont like bacon,I just take them out myself.coz I feel bad for the cook,waitress. Im really sorry for people who felt bad after reading this.but I just would like to know why they do that. if it was cultual thing,then that's fine. and I myself,like America.want to visit there oneday.and Im not saying that everyone is like that.but a lot .

When Jesus was asked: Teacher, what good thing must I do to get eternal life?
Jesus answered: If you want to enter life, obey the commandments.
And then, Jesus added something more: If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me. (Mat.19:16-21, Mr.10, Lk.18).


So who ever says it by Grace on what base they dismiss what Jesus says him self? They think they know more than Jesus the way Jesus wanted them to be?

I know there are several passages in the bible where it says by Grace only ( or by acceptance) . So since every1 claiming there are no contradictions in bible than question is.
How do you determine which Jesus ( direct words) terachings to take or not?
Why those who claims by Grace only ignore the rest of Jesus teaching?

And Since Jesus saying obey the comandments which commandments if Christains saying OT god's commandments are not bound to them?

I'm an English Christian and no one I know believes in a rapture, and there is scant evidence of it in the bible. Yet it seems deeply immersed in American culture - it was even referenced in an episode of The Simpsons once.

I've seen it a few times around here that Buddhism isn't a religion, it's a philosophy or that Wicca is a cult. So what makes something philosophy instead of religion? How is religion defined? How is cult defined as opposed to what religion is?

a. i.e.: rape, murder, genocide, etc.
b. Please provide serious and thoughtful answers with logical reasoning; do not hide behind religion (i.e. there are none because God says it is wrong to hate) or simply provide an opinion without evidence or examples.

The fact is that people DO hate. What human acts justify hate?

When I was on the tram the other day I saw a ladt get on the tram who looked about 60. I asked her if she would like to sit down. She started to have a go at me really loudly so that everyone on the tram could hear. She eventually took the seat but proceded to make comments every few minutes and I was given evils by every person on the tram.
Children are told to be respectful and polite to adults. But how am I and everyone else meant to do that if were scared that we'll get abuse shouted at us by people!?

They write questions and answers saying atheists are evil, sinful, sexually immoral, Jesus-hating Nazis when for the most part, they're the same as the Christians writing this, only more willing to question their own beliefs instead of just following the flock.

We're not your enemy, we used to be you and we fell sorry for you.

They defined Christmas to be on the 25th of December, the birthday of the Roman sun-god
They moved the Christian Sabbath from Saturday to the Roman Sun-day (Dies Soli), the holy day of the sun-god Apollo
They borrowed the emblem of the Roman sun God, the cross of light, to be the emblem of Christianity. Before this, the official symbol of Christianity was that of a fish, a symbol of the last supper
They incorporated most of the rituals performed on the sun-god's birthday into their own celebrations.

The world we live in today,wheter we want to admit it or not is tied to God in one way or another.Country's are fighting each other because of the God they follow.Each of which won't learn of the other's faith.Wouldn't it be better for everyone to know of the other faith's out there, that way we would know more about our neighbor and his faith.Instead of killing each other, why can't we learn and grow together?

Where do you get this idea. Please, give me some real examples of how Christians are spreading hatred. I am seriously curious as to how you conclude this.

Thanks in advance for taking the time to give a well thought out answer.

I think if he was born there....Hinduism would have accepted him as part of her vast ideas. And worshiped him just like Krishna, Ram or Buddha....because Hindus have a great heart.

first of all Islam telling us to marry with just one women iff incase we cannot do equally justice with them

iff we can do then we are allowed it has a strong reason

you will find women population as compare to men is much larger

why becouse infant death record show us that female,s have more resistence then male child that,s why there survival chance,s are more

other male death ratio is higher then female,s becouse man work hard and risk his life to make money

in only america there are 7.8 million female,s
in russia 9 million
in uk 4 million
in germany 5 million in thailand
and many country,s generally women,s are more then male

suppose iff every man have found one wife for him but still million,s of female,s left alone what are there option,s to find shelter or security ?

would they prefare to be second wife of allready married man when she did this she will get same right,s same honor as first wife according to Islam....

or else
