I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation, whose purposes are modeled after our own — a God, in short, who is but a reflection of human frailty. Neither can I believe that the individual survives the death of his body, although feeble souls harbor such thoughts through fear or ridiculous egotisms."

"The religion of the future will be a cosmic religion. The religion which based on experience, which refuses dogmatic. If there's any religion that would cope the scientific needs it will be Buddhism."
"It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated. I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it." - Albert Einstein

Do you think bible and Quran were written by GOD power ?

I don't belive it's unbelievers that will be the ones getting the plagues, but those who refuse to obey the God they believe exists. They will be those who call themselves "Christians" , but God will say "I never knew you, depart from me (referring to those who disobey)". People who don't belive a god exists, obey the law of God naturally. They aren't forced not are they decieved by supersition (like hell and ghosts. During the end times though, the false "christians" will persecute the true ones and all others that don't believe the way they do. That's my honest belief.

My opinion, not yours

do you think that most guys that are the worst homophobic ones are secretly gay or secretly have some attraction to the same sex?

i saw a show on cable about that.
they were testing two groups of "straight" guys

one group was very comfortable with their sexuality and had no homophobic issues

the other group had very homophobic issues.

they were not told what the study was about.
they put them one by one in a room and and put a device around thier wrist to measure pulse, and around their penis to measure arousal.
then showed them a series of videos of straight and gay porn.

the study showed that the straight guys who were comfortable with their sexuality and were not homophobes had no reaction to the gay porn....while most of the homophobic "straight" guys got aroused while watching the gay porn...

.....aint that a biaaacchh!!

It's also on CNN. Amnesty International is calling for it! I think they should do it just to get the nuts where they can no longer hurt people, and cause wars. You know, like when they try to murder people with rockets across borders. Last time I checked, it's not okay to send missles into neighboring countries, not to mention the traitorous acts to the country of Lebanon that they were guilty of. Perhaps the leadership of Lebanon should face trial for teason?

It would be the right thing to do since they allowed Hezbollah to cause all this within their borders!

How about that!

And perhaps the missle making company should sue Hezbollah for defamation, as they shot so many rockets and were so bad at it that Allah of the Koran has to go get glasses to see what they are shooting at?

Some of the respondents commented that the mega-church does not allow for personal contact with the minister (or ministers).

For those who attend these mega churches, do you find this to be the case and if so do you build a "relationship" with the church or is it a matter of going for the sake of going?

Did God created creatures of his image and likeness that would control evil? or is it that God knows everything and planned everything that He even planned Evil on us?

As most Middle East countries make use of satellites, one can get many free porn channels on Nilesat and Arabsat. Many muslim men watch it. Is this not Garaam (sinful)?

christianity is not the only religion that ask people to love their enemy. it's also in the Quran.
in this verse God is telling the believers to treat their enemy like a very close friend. and the only people who recieve this gift are those who are patient and lucky ones.

Quran 41-(34-35)
[34] The good deed and the evil deed cannot be equal. Repel (the evil) with one which is better then verily he, between whom and you there was enmity, (will become) as though he was a close friend.

[35] But none is granted it (the above quality) except those who are patient - and none is granted it except the owner of the great portion in this world.


love your enemy is not only christinaity, but also in Islam.

You know how it is when you meet someone and they just seem to be significant to your life. There is someone i know who i've been attracted to for 16 years, since primary school. We were close and something almost happened with us, but timing was wrong, we went our separate ways. Everytime we meet there is an electrifying attraction between us, but we both now have partners. For years i've had dreams where we are holding eachother. My latest one was where we were standing opposite eachother and we kissed. I said no because of our partners and we just talked to eachother about how we felt. It was so real. Were our souls meeting in the dream? I cant explain it fully. I love my boyfriend, but why do i think of the other so often. Many things have happened that make me feel so strongly about this, but there is not enough space. Its like he's my first love and i've never stopped. When i dont think of him, a dream provokes me and my feelings come back. Is the spirit world pushing me to him?

Obviously the english language isn't the native tongue, I just wondered if English was widely spoken in Portugal? (eg - if you were visiting the country would you be able to happily go about day to day life and be understood or would it be extremely difficult unless you knew how to speak portugeuse?

the word Christ is the messiah for THE JEWS, and jews dont believe Jesus was the messiah, so He must have been the anti-christ.

Many postings questions/answers are very derogatory to Muslims; doesn't this entice more hatered, lead to more misunderstandings, in times where this is should be encouraged; this is ignorance and does not at all help, don't you think. We and our religion can't be responsible for the action of a minority.
