I've never heard God talk before in my entire life. I used to be a Christian, and I never bought into the God talk thing. People say you can feel God talk to your heart, but I never felt anything like that. The few times that I prayed, I felt like I was just talking to myself.

I think people who claim to be spoken to by God are delusional. They have been told over and over that God speaks to people to the point that their mind mistakes its own thoughts for the voice or word of God. Is this not some form of schizophrenia?

Islam is a religion about peace and tranquility. However, the incidents that took place on 9/11 and the war in Iraq have aroused many different and negative views about Islam. What are your views and what do you, as an individual, think of Islam?

I envision a world in which everyone is happy. This world however won't ever become as real the one you live in now. This world consist of to many people that don't care and to many people that care. This means there are people in the world in which don't care about the world and everything in it. These people are that do things as little as littering all the way up to the terrorist. The other group of people are those who use the system to benifit themselfs. Why would I say this is caring to much? I say that because they care to much about themselves. Who has the world's answer. Well I'm sure its not Dr.Phil. What do you think?

I am a Christain myself. Here is the question that really perplexes me: if God is omniscient, does he know what our thoughs and actions will be in the future? Where does "free-will" come into play?

When I was a pagan, we used to have full moon ceremonies where we would honor the moon. We would burn tobacco offerings in a sacred fire, and send prayers to the "great spirit".

Although I'm a Christian now, It still interests me, to hear what everybody's religions and culture is all about.

Please specify the act(s) that demonstrate your claim.

And, please state whether or not you have read the Old Testament.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

IF you want to be considered for "best answer," read the following:

I will ignore any answer that says "He died on the cross." (or words to that effect)

I will ignore any answer that attempts to sermonize rather than answer the question. (e.g., "God loves you so much he did all kinds of things that you just don't understand. .. blah, blah, blah).

Please be concise (short) and to the point.

Thanks.

Anyone can say he/she is a believer. But as "Wise" man once said, "you can tell a tree by its fruit. A good tree will bear good fruits and a bad tree will bear bad fruits." Now, what belief would you choose?

Gay people say that they were born gay. Do you believe this? If God created man and woman, why would He create some people to be born gay?

I see people everyday who are impatient and can't seem to wait their turn. This applies to all ecomomic backgrounds and races. They can't seem to under that I am only one person and can't assist everyone at once. They get mad at me if they have to wait and I have nothing to do with it as I can only go so fast. I watch how people stand at the door when it is pouring down rain because they don't want to get wet on the short walk to their car. I had to walk several blocks in the pouring rain and in water and got my shoes and feet really wet but I survived. Why does everyone think they are so special when they are no better to get wet than I am. I work as hard or harder than alot of them but cannot afford a car and have to do things the hard way but I think I'm just as good of a person as they are. I'm looking forward to the day the oil runs out and everyone is out walking, that will be hillarious and it will happen someday.

Many people are offended by public breastfeeding because so many of us whip it out in the restaurant or the mall for everyone to get a good look. I can't understand this because I know many people who bf in public and they are very discrete. I've been to many public places and anytime I've seen someone nursing her shirt was up just enough to allow the baby to latch and all I ever see is the baby's head and a wrinkled shirt. I'm sure there were many other times that I have been around nursing mothers and I just didn't notice.
So tell me - why are you looking so intently if you are so uncomfortable with it?

If so, are you aware of the following?

As a member of Congress, Thomas Jefferson, at 33, drafted the Declaration of Independence. In years following he labored to make its words a reality in Virginia. Most notably, he wrote a bill establishing religious freedom, enacted in 1786.

In his autobiography, he wrote: "Jesus as the source of religious liberty was rejected by the great majority, in proof that they meant to comprehend, within the mantle of its protection: the Jew and the Gentile, the Christian and the Mohammedan, the Hindoo and Infidel of every denomination."

In fact, Jefferson himself was not Christian, he considered himself a Deist (which means that he believes in God but does not believe in Christs ressurrection).
Benjamin Franklin, who was also a signer of the Declaration of Independance was an agnostic who is on record as "strongly doubting the divinity of Jesus Christ." Franklin did, however promote that ALL religions express some morality and goodness.

You always hear these Christians claiming that Allah is a false God. Of course, that's just stupid! Muslims should start annoying Christians by claiming Yahweh is false and see what happens. hahahaha.
