Executing non-islamic believer including Marxist groups, Jews, etc.
Killing gay and lesbian’s

There's a big difference between "not being perfect" and purposely doing wrong. You can be "not perfect" and still be a very good person.

If you have a worker-type friendship relationship, (as I do) with a coworker of mine and I ask her to join me for lunch – does that mean I am supposed to pay for her meal?

I mean... I have no problem doing so if I have the money, and our relationship is purely leveled as I already have a girl and she knows this. I am just wondering that if *just because I invited her* to join me for lunch, does that automatically suggest I should have to pay?

Want to make sure I know the right etiquette here. Thanks! ^_^

"The big questions in life are tough; Where are we from? Why are we here? Where are we going? But as long as there's big douchey liars like you around, we're never going to find the answers to those questions. You're not just lying, you're slowing down the progress of all mankind, You Douche!" - Stan Marsh, South Park regarding TV psychic John Edward.

Now if your nonreligious – great – good for you, but unless your going to offer a intelligent answer (which I am more than happy to hear) please don’t waste my time by saying stuff like, “God does not exit” or some other junk.

Now that I have made that clear, my question pertains to God and lies. Do you think he uses discretion in judging what is… let’s say… a joke and just a blatant lie – or are they all the same to him?

For example, if I tell my friend I got a girl’s number or something and my friend believes me, then I say sike! I was only joking with him, and told him the truth in the end – does God still count that as a lie? I mean it is not as if I said that, and it was *not* meant as a joke and I never told him the truth.
What do you think?

With women, most (but not all) claim that size does not matter, so is this the majority mindset with gay men as well? I am not gay – nor do I have like some hidden insecurity with my own size. It is just that a minute ago, while reading a response on here from a guy who said he was gay around a similar topic sparked this question – so where else is a better place to get an answer then here! ^_^

Why are all athiests anti Christians. Why is it that none of you, or any of the reknown atheists of our times, speaking up against the other religions. You all say Christ is not real and God doesn't exist. Why don't any of you ever say Budha doesn't exist, or Mohamed was not real? I think you all lost a very importantpart our your humanity and the fear and sorrow is making you hide behind each other.

I was wondering 'What do you think of the Australian Pentecostal church'

By the Pentecostal church I don’t mean the highly traditional Catholic and Anglican churches but rather the more modern relatable churches from the likes of the mega churches of Hillsong, CCC Oxford falls and Paradise community church, the Entertainment centres filled with worshipers to the evangelical Baptist, CCC or AOG… church on the corner.

Just curious

Allah (God Almighty) is the only Creator of all that exits.

There is one God (Allah). Jesus is the Christ, miracle birth- and Muhammad (p) is his last prophet, both of them said, "God is One and you have to serve Him with all your heart, mind and strength.

Allah reveals His 99 Divine Attributes and does not compare Himself to any of His creation.

Allah created man from dirt and "in His image" and of "His spirit," yet God has no likeness of anything in creation.

Adam & Eve sinned, then repented and were forgiven, with no continuing effects on their children.


God Forgives Adam and Eve after they repent. Then He makes Adam his deputy (caliph) and the first prophet.


Man is basically good but prone to mistakes. Muslims who repent and submit to God are forgiven without intercession from Christ (or anyone) needed.

Through submission to the Will of God in peace, anyone, anytime, any place becomes a servant of Allah and draw closer to Him.

When I offered to pay half of the gas cost on a 250+ mile trip, the person I am getting a ride from said, "No, you don't have to do that, I was going to go anyway." Now, he was going to go anyway, I just found out about it and asked if I could ride with. But I know there is no such thing as a free ride, and I want to make it easier to take these trips in the future. How do I politely pay for what I consider to be my share?

The story was about the alliance between Israelis and the evangelical Christians because they believe the end of the world has begun. The Israeli ambassador said that Jews don't have to believe in Jesus until the Messianic age. He said Jews will ask the Messiah "are you coming or returning?" and that "until then we don't know whether the world will be Christian or Jewish".

In English "*****" is offensive while "black" is acceptable
In Portugeuse "*****" is acceptable while "preto" (i.e. black) is offensive.
Why do think this is?

why don't they know that these 3 religions believe in the same God ( they give god a different name that's all).
that the torah came befor ethe bible, and that the koran includes the bible which means muslims believe in Jesus as a prophet.
