Yep, I'm back! I think my questions are good questions that people actually want to answer. And I only ask them because I see some things on this site that makes me ask. Why should I not ask? And why would people think that I think everyone hates black people just because I ask? I don't see any violation notices in my e-mail, so they must not bother everyone. Your thoughts?

During a reading period in which you are required to read something and you can read any book you want would you get in trouble for reading the Bible during a school reading time when it is a public school too.

I understand that a large part of the muslim people are not bad , but in light of the fact that most terrorist activity seems to be by muslims, dont you think that profiling is necessary.

Isreal. Most of the middle east run by Islamic law. Vatican City. USA and neo-cons christian right...Here is what George Carlin once said, and I think it sums it up the best...
"I'm completely in favor of the separation of Church and State. My idea is that these two institutions screw us up enough on their own, so both of them together is certain death."

Our talents are gifts from God...how we use them is our gift to God.

There is a Bible story of a Master who goes away and trusts his servants with his money according to their abilities. He does not give everyone the same abilities - but you should take what he gives you and DO THE BEST YOU CAN.
Even GOD isn't for entitlements and generational welfare. He is for doing the best you can and making yourself as successful as you can!

Laziness is a sin but some think we should reward that with welfare. Is that right?

I am ALL FOR HELPING the POOR....IF....they want to help themselves.

This may seem like a trick question, the answer is quite simple once you think about it! The answer is somewhere within the Bible!

Cast out the bondwoman and her son, for the son of the bondwoman shall not be an heir with the son of the free woman.-Galations 4:30. abraham had 2 sons, isaac and ishmael. isaac symbolizes New Covenant in this chapter, Ishmael represents Old Covenent. But as at that time he who was born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit.

This might be confusing so Anyway, how do you become heir with Isaac and his offspring? accept Jesus as Savior and stop referring to Him as just a 'prophet' what do you think of this?

Here in Missouri - we had a funeral for a troop that was supposed to come home, and one week before he was sent home, his Humvee was struck by an armor-piercing grenade. A christian - baptist church group drove 5 hours down to this man's funeral and started protesting the war in the middle of the service! I want to know your thoughts on this. My thoughts are - how dare they... and neither the time or place to put on such demonstration. Link to the story is here: http://www.godhatesfags.com/fliers/sep2006/20060907_michael-deason-funeral.pdf

I am making a blog of thier website and not protesting, but exposing this hatred to everyone .... any real christians out there?? Then you need to do something about your fellow brethren.

The prayer could be offered by any man of the cloth. He says, "Amen!" and the congregation responds, "Amen!." Are you stating, "So be it!" or are you saying, instead of Amen, you are saying, "I endorse it!" Which do you say or which are you actually sayin g in your heart even though you don't say it out loud? When you pray yourself alone, which do you say at the closing of a prayer?

The stories in the bible can also be considered myths and folklore How can people learn about other religions with this attitude? This is not just a christian/islamic forum. If you are not here to learn something new why are you here? This is a forum for interreligious dialogue is it not?

How can you call Islam a peaceful religion when it was founded at the sword by it's prophet?

People have, without a doubt, corrupted Christianity throughout history and killed people in it's name. This is something I am, of course, not proud of, but at least Jesus didn't go killing innocent people just because they didn't believe his religion. He also didn't tell people to wage war for him.

Christianity, at least in theory, should be modeled after peace and love. Islam believes in killing infidels, as quoted by it's prophet after burning alive thousands of pagans.

How is Islam peaceful?

infallable, according to church teaching? So if He appologizes for anything that would mean he was wrong and therefore not infallable. And therefore not a pope.

Allthough I don't think his comments were wrong this is the reason he won't appologize for it.

Correct?
