Wasn't Jesus God's only begotten Son?

And why does it say they took Earth women as wives? Were they extraterrestrials?

Some people may believe we are nothing more than this physical or biologocal body.Well I want them and others to read this completely and share their views.
Normal people(wether religious or not,believer in god or not) become happy after they do a good act, even if their action can't be justified by materialistic laws , for example sacrifising one's self for another person, or to give your kidney to someone else for free.
And they will get sad in their hearts when they do something evil , even if they make a good money(that their actions are justifyable by materialistic laws) ofcourse I am talking about 'normal' people whose heart hasn't changed dramatically.
So if we read between the lines it proves there is something more than this physical world it proves reward and consequence for our actions. >>
this is a feeling so deep in our heart(deeper than one can say because they were taught it in the school when they were child), it is deep there.
Just like we love and want the beauty , we love good acts( even if they dont make sense with materialistic laws).
you know, when something is in our heart there is a response outside, if there is the hunger inside ,there is food outside. if there is the need of love inside ,there is marriage and love outside.For every natural need or tendency or feeling that we have inside our hearts ,there is a response a satisfaction outside. the response to this feeling is that there is more than
this world, there is reward and consequenses.
Things make sense.
If we admire sombody when he get killed, trying to rescue somebody else which doesnt make sense by the physical laws,it means our hearts knows that there is more than this physical world.even if some people has become unbelievers and consciously deny it while their hearts unconsciously act in according to spritual laws.
and yes when god created us he put this in our heart.
Note that I dont say non-belivers dont do good acts,some of them do,beacause the truth is in their hearts but they consciously deny it.and sometimes they act in according to spritual laws without paying attention to it.
peace to you all
a muslim friend.

I'm not closed minded. I'm very open and willing to accept new "ideas". I love "ideas". "ideas" are what make us human.

I've always thought that religion was based upon faith. You know "visualizing" what it is you want to be. Using a reference point to focus your desires upon. To "live" for something. To have a unified passion.... What some would call an idol, or a god, or a deity.

If we really did evolve, than our minds are definitely still primitive. Is that true? We now live in a cultured world. Our minds are very malleable. Fear and joy of the "bicameral" mind. The people who "wrote" the bible knew this. Anybody who creates a cult today knows this. Every business man, every con man, every friend, and enemy you've ever had know this. Heck, even babies stop crying when they hear another babe cry.

The reason I must ask you to "respect" the church instead of trying to tear it down, is because of what the church stands for.

If you follow my reasoning what is there to respect

Obviously there are very clear cut cases, like racism, or sexism, but what about when they don't have a negative connotation? Like when you say white people can't dance, or black people like fried chicken (these aren't my personal opinions, just examples, I love fried chicken and I dance great). Is there really cause for concern by such statements? A good friend of mine gets upset at the slightest generalizations. I mean, if you were working at a bank and someone came in with a ski mask over their head what would you do? You'd sound the alarm. Why? Because people coming into banks with ski masks over their heads generally plan on robbing the bank. How can I get her to lighten up on this?

Agnostic here, not wanting to convert anyone, I'm probably not going to read anyone who tells me I need Jesus in my heart anymore but heh, feel free, first amendment and all.

I'm talking about relationships between real people.

Where did the saying come from, is it just another way of greeting someone or is it a bit of a sarcastic statement?

Is it possible that some Christians just accept and believe what others tell them, whereas others actually search the Bible for answers, and thus can truly say that they trust what they believe and can give evidence of it? Is it possible that some religions really do cause more problems than they help, but others do really help the ones that adhere to them? Do you think that some people look negatively on a form of religion (let's say Christianity) because of how many of those who profess to be Christians do not live up to what they claim to be? Does that mean that those who do strive to set an example should be lumped in with all of the rest?
