Scruitiny is a good thing. It can keep you from diving head first into false teaching. Don't you think a person owes it to theirself (at least) to study God's word in sincerity and truly seek after Him, to seek truth. Do you think that truth exists? Is something only true if you can see it?

I received two very close minded answers about christians reading other holy books.

(Granted there were also christians who had read about other belief systems. And good for them. Though maybe they should keep reading other books instead of just going back to the bible.)

Anyway, here are the two statements:

"When you search for an answer to something in "your" life,.and you find that answer,......why would you continue looking? Why would anyone "continue" looking for something they have already found?!
It is not intolerance to other religions, I simply do not need a second opinion."

"Why would I want to? The Holy Bible is all I need to find out how to go to heaven. I just love and know my own The Holy Bible. It really is the only holy book available to mankind. How about you? Have you ever read The Holy Bible? Try it, you'll be surprised and maybe even learn how to get to heaven. This is my prayer for you."

For the record yes, I have read the bible.

This is really difficult,I was baptised Anglican,I have never been too sure about what this implies.My beliefs are 100% Christian and this is the religion in which that I would like to be Baptised.My husband is of the Greek Orthodox Christian religion and he believes that Christianity is just like Jehova's Witnesses.I have never told him of my beliefs and that I would really like to start going to Church every Sunday with my son,I think he will get very mad,he is not a very understanding person.How can I go about this situation?

Christians, Jews and Muslims believe in god and yet they've been fighting and killing each other ever since.
Do you think that satan has something to do with it?
Is he causing the believers to kill each other?
Is he dividing us?
Is this his way of proving to god we weren't worthy afterall?
Will he win?
Will we allow him to win his war against god?

Please don't post stupid answers or make retarded remarks! If you don't believe in this stuff then move along because I really don't care to know whether you belive in this stuff or not. And don't plague me with your advice on how I shouldn't believe in this stuff.
Your wisdom is not needed unless it has something to do with my question.

Do you agree? Why? If you disagree, what do you think about it and those who agree with it?

This question struck a nerve with me and they usually don’t.

So I ask, in the same verbiage as our curious Christian:

To propose a (perhaps ridiculous) situation: If you had to choose between the life of your dog whom you've had for 20 years and love dearly, or a gay man or lesbian, which would you choose and why? (Let's say they're both drowning and you only have time to save one.)

My reunion is coming soon and I am very nervous about attending. Should I go? I would like to see a few people, but some nasty people will be there and I am afraid they will still be immature and make comments about me. I know I won't stoop to their level, but I will still be hurt. Do I even bother going?

why if God's reason for humanity is for us to love one another and have compassoin, then why does he create people with disabilkities such as autism / psychosis when they are completely unsociable by God's default and perhaps can never feel empathy

"Knowing you don't know is wholeness.
Thinking you know is a disease.
Only by recognizing that you have an illness
can you move to seek a cure. "

It feels like wherever I go, I always get asked the meaning of the hankies in my back pockets. They are pretty basic colors (not red/black/yellow/brown) (hehe) Have they become so obsolete that no one wears them or knows what they mean anymore?

Should I stop trying to answer this question? What do you think?
