Why is the supposed word of God agreed to be wrong just on certain points...
...and if we are agreed that the supposed word of God is wrong on some issues... then how do we know these holy books aren't wrong in their entirety.

I’m assuming that dead people can’t feel torment and pain, so if the sinners are to be tormented for eternity they must be given eternal life, right?


(Most seems to agree that you have no feelings when you are dead.)

How are the catholics getting round this one? I cant remember the movie but the quote goes " the best trick the devil ever pulled was getting the world to forget he exists".
Now if these crazy caths believe in good Vs evil/ god Vs the devil how can they let this happen. That nazi pope has already showed his hate a couple of times. Has satan himself managed to get control? It would be fitting and slightly ironic that such a nasty greedy filthy religion would end up with the antichrist as its leader?
He will be worse for the world than anybody can imagine.

Question is, catholics are notoriously blind in their faith, so will they follow him into hell and chaos that he will bring to the world?

Bible is quite clear that homosexuality is wrong, As Judaism says, as does the Quran in Islam.
All people have sinned, so no one is perfect. Homosexuals I believe should be allowed to attend the church/mosque / etc. without discrimination. They have the same rights and everything else.
My real question is - Can they lead the church? Some Christian denominations are allowing homosexuals to be ministers / pastors. The ones I have talked to have warped what the bible says to suit their needs. (which is wrong for whatever is warped).

Can they be Iman's etc.
do you think your religion will decay to this someday?

I had a dream last night that was just a nightmare for me, well part of the dream was. You see what happened was that when I was going to my room for something in my dream, I saw this invisble thing messing with my clothes and I oringinally think of it as a ghost. So I scream and run downstairs and curl up to my dad and tell and he does nothing. I don't remember the rest but I do know that was the main of the nightmare. What does this mean?

John 15:6 - If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.


Why do christians think that it is okay for their holy book to mention such atrocity then point out violent texts in the Quran and say it is a violent religion? do christians consider themselves a violent religion?

Is it Christian to oppose the equal treatment of fellow citizens and in some cases fellow Christians who happen to be gay... while in many parts of the world gay are now facing rejection, violence and abuse in their own communities...imprisonment & killing of gays still continues in many countries and a large section of the the Anglican church seems to now be giving this abuse it's endorsement.

Why can't people just open their eyes and see the truth for themselves? Or is it because no one wants to know the truth? Are they just happier believeing that God is sitting up there taking care of everything. It just an escape I tell you, people dont want to take the responsibility they were born with. Grasp the power that is your right and stop denying you all know in your hearts but ignore for fear of suffering in hell. Hell is a scare tactic created by the church.

Can anyone give a real reason (besides "it's a sin" or "the Bible says so") as to why pre-marital sex is bad?

By real reason I mean scientific, medical, or logical reasons. Quoting the Bible or bringing "God" into this is unacceptable as it does not relate to this question what so ever, and is not a real reason.

RAINDROP or the NETRIKKANN of Lord Siva? Anybody with Vedas and Sanskrit theology knowledge can enlighten us? Is it done that way by God to represent the shape of Vagina (or an empty hole) , So is there any seed of a fruit that is NOT shaped this way, we can prove it wrong? We must seek the truth without any bias, and all proofs must be derived from the correct authority (GOD) so you can use shapes of vegetables, shapes of fruits, sea, water, air etc. "It is said so in the Vedas" is inacceptable because Vedas itself represents a recording of Divinity - so people wont forget, and the knowledge can be passed on frm generation to generation. If God wanted man to procreate, then why did he create a female form of the species? There are animals and birds which are female also, whose vagina is the same shape. So is he saying FEMINITY is also DIVINITY and must be represented in Symbols of letter, language, culture and worship? If so, Tamil is the only language that does this correctly

i enjoy asking and answering questions because i get to laugh at some of the questions and some of the answers. i get to disagree with answers i feel are disagreeable. i get to share my opinion. i get to ask questions, trying to make them so that they get serious answers (though so far, ive mostly failed). lol
