What possible motive could you give me to abandon my father who loved me for a god whose scripture claims my deceased father is in hell?

Surely there are more comforting faiths for me to believe in than yours? And given that "faith" in unprovable, why not believe in a faith that deals with people more fairly than one that condemns good people who do not believe in the divinity of Jesus to Hell?

I mean, what is ,"Matter", what are," Molecules", if not," all tiny particles which bounce around and float around and bump into eachother"?
Are we truly so seperate from oneanother, that we should hate?
That we should ,"hate different cultures, or whatever?
I think we are all ,"ONE".
We all live on the same planet, we breath the same ,"TOXIC AIR", that," we", made that way...
We all Have had ,"Hurts, or Emotional pains, physical pains,...abuse...etc."
How can we be ,"SEPERATE"?
I think we are all here to,"LEARN VALUABLE LIFE LESSONS", as well as to ,"TEACH VALUABLE LIFE LESSONS".
We will not be here forever, at least not in this,"state of existence", obviously.
But I think even when we ," DIE, pass on, crossover, etc." Whatever term you want to use for when this ,"physical body expires." We still," keep going on."
No matter what you believe...
I still believe that, "we will be JUDGED", on ,"whether we were good or bad."
But I also believe ,"JESUS CHRIST IS MESSIAH."

A PRIEST has died after trying to demonstrate how Jesus walked on water.

Evangelist preacher Franck Kabele, 35, told his congregation he could repeat the biblical miracle.

But he drowned after walking out to sea from a beach in the capital Libreville in Gabon, west Africa.

Did he use the wrong prayer?
Couldnt he figure it out after the water got to his ankles....knees...waist....neck...oops...blub blub blub....

How come when questions are asked, the bible basheers come out in force to tell us about Jesus? You never hear any Jewish people or Sikhs or Muslims give us their opinion form a religios persepective. Is it just Christians that feel the need to harass people and badger them into beleiving their crap?

is there anyone that is a non christian that goes along with 'we are not harming the environment' crap that often comes up. I have noticed only christians take this line. Is that true?
I once herd one say that the way to stop global warming and environmental disasters was to carry on as we are but to stop sinning.

There is no Jesus in the Quran, and the Quran tells the World of Christians and Muslims that Christ was not crucified and that anything that comes with a crucifixion of Christ is as fraudulent as the fake crucifixion and I get hatred thrown at me from all sorts of Christians for telling it like the Quran says to tell it.

Quran never says that Jesus was not crucified and Quran DOES NOT mention Jesus, so why do all these Jesus freaks attack me with all that venom and hatred when I speak the Quran's Truth?

Christians will murder little children and accuse bystanders of being evil for looking at them while they commit murder.

Islam is NOT ABOUT Jesus and the Quran shuns Jesus so dont beg me to bow to your Jesus because some scary little muslims pamper you with your Jesus.

I am for real in Islam and Quran and Muslims bow to no man.

Allah! The Only Super Power.

Welcome to the World of Allah The Supreme!
Planet Earth and everything inside and outside of it belong to Allah!

What is your definition of "moral values"? Jesus never spoke of gays or abortion. He did, however, emphasize love in the form of helping the poor, as well as being forgiving (Matt. 5:43, "You have heard that it was said,'You shall love your neighbor, and hate your enemy.' But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you...). In other words, who would Jesus bomb? No one!

How can one be Republican AND a Christian? It's an oxymoron. What about separation of church and state (rendering Caesar's things to Caesar and God's things to God)?

I don't know any christians where i am, would love to find some, but not looking for love or marriage even though i am easily old enough, am game but want to wait. Don't want it too take over my life, still working on being christian which means i must be alert and seeking the Lord, holding fast till he comes. (am31.)

...prepared to tell us our deceased loved ones, who also didn't believe, are already in Hell?

After all, if your claim applies to the living, it applies to the dead as well.

And before you tell me that it is not for you to judge, explain Revelations 21:8 and why you do not share in the judgment your god made manifest in that scripture.

It concerns the UK postal system :

I live on a nice narrowboat, sometimes cruising the UK Inland Waterways system, sometimes remaining static for a while in nice places. So ...
I have a land based postal address in the form of my Mother, who forwards stuff to the nearest village P.O. But the system can be most unreliable. It could also take weeks to set up and use.
It could be scanned in & sent to my laptop I know, but without resorting to a mail helicopter drop here and there, is there a better system about that you can please advise me of ?

It so easy!

Jump on the Bible bandwagon and say something different, like the World will end next week, and you have qualified as a Christian Church, and the World goes happily along and you expect to be respected?

Well, if Uncle Sam aint your God and Jesus your donkey to ride what makes you so uptight if you get the sons of slaves to follow your Jesus around the corner to make you boast that even the blind follow the blind?

You make my day when you throw hatred at me while you accuse me of spreading hate.

Internet is not for whimps and pimps and the narrow minded who are too weak to face truth and opposition.

We are all in it together and only the strong survives so dont come begging for sympathy and expect to be treated like little old ladies waiting to cross the street.

Okay, please do not tell me that Italians are not all in the mob (I know this), I'm asking an honest question here and don't need to hear this repeated over and over. My question is, are you just a little scared or intimidated when you have a run-in with an Italian American? Does it ever cross your mind that he MIGHT be in the mob or MIGHT do something to you, so you react a little differently as a result? Some guy with the dark hair and olive skin and Italian mannerisms and voice--is that intimidating at all when you think about who he might be connected to or who he is?

Can some of you Born-Again Super Nazi Christians give me a list of all the "Cults." By name please? perferably the top 10.

And if at all possible, I would like to know a quick reasoning for each, or maybe even just the top 3.

And if you can, fill me in on what constitutes as a "Cult."

Very much appriciated in advance.
