Society & Culture - 9 October 2006

Morocco, Sudan, Algeria, Egypt, Libya and Ethiopia were all Christian lands before Mohammad began the spread of Islam in the 7th century. In fact, Ethiopia boasts the honor of having the first Christian church ever recognized. Where is it today, except spoken of in history books?

It was destroyed by the Muslims. A very intrinsic piece of history for the Christian people.

Why? Let's go to the Koran and see:

Surah 9:5- "Fight and slay those who associate with other gods, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them with every stratagem of war..."

Anyone ever been to these places in Sudan? Nobatia, Makuria, and Alwa? Ha ha!! Of COURSE you haven't, because Mohammad and company destroyed these Christian Mini-States in 1275 A.D., and these are (were) centers of history and learning that were established since 300 A.D. with their own universities, written languages and active role in world trade.

You have to read archaelogical manuals to learn of them now.

And not confused either, but is there a classification for this? So much drama when it comes to religion, I have chosen to just have faith and integrity, and a little knowledge from all religions. All religions (As far as I know)have some good to offer, and all have there flaws. Why choose?

And I always feel the need to pray. Sometimes I can't get back to sleep for a couple of hours. I don't even know what I'm supposed to pray about I just feel God is telling me to pray. This has been happening for the past month and a half. Is anyone experiencing the same thing?

Christians, where in the Bible does it state that a person must accept Jesus as their savior. I know that the bible states that the only way through heaven is him, but i am not sure where it says that you have to worship him. Is there a passage that specifically states you must worship him to go to heaven. Some people who worship Christ have told me that he died for everyone's sins, and no one goes to hell..

This is for my own curiosity, and not meant as a joke, or an insult.

Thanks

If he Can't, then hes not all powerful.
if he can,and god is all loving- then why are we not living in a world like that?
also if it is impossible to have free will and no evil - does that mean heaven is a place with no free will?

READ THIS BEFORE YOU POST! I'VE SEEN MANY QUESTIONS WHERE PEOPLE FORGET TO (thanks).

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AgedDzylblQWyin8afwSMQ7sy6IX?qid=20061009051425AAL5Elh

In this question someone asked why god rested? About half or more of the responses was that we are weak humans and need rest, but why would god make us so shitty as to need rest at all--especially when we are made in his image?

The second question is, what did god do on the 8th day (or first day of the following week)? Should we take a break the next day or what?

And if you believe that 1 day is a 1000 years to god, does that mean that I should stop working for 1000 years if I worked 6000 years? <-- The point of this question is to show how illogical it is that he did it to "set and example for us."

If Muslim women are required to cover ther faces ...why don't they have a roll of flesh or a contiguous ligament like a foreskin round their neck? this could be raised or lowered like a natural extra-long polo-neck sweater depending on whose company they are in.
Maybe women could be genetically engineered to have such an addition.
Personally I don't think women should be required by religion or by tradition nor by their menfolk to cover their faces, it is a negation of any woman required to cover up she loses any identity...and it is an implicit rejection of those around them.

When I see many women celebrities on TV, like on David Letterman or Jay Leno, especially the ones who wear nice dresses, most of them sit down with their legs crossed. I don't know why they sit like that. If you ladies do sit like that, can you explain why do sit that? It's that almost every women have a habit of how they sit

Genesis 6:5-6

"And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
And it Repented the Lord that He made man on the earth, and it grieved Him at His heart."
.....WAIT A SEC..god repented making man! So he was sorry he ever created humans?? what about unconditional love?...and how coud he be upset....he should have seen it coming, because he knows everything...and how can he get upset if he is PERFECT? how can his emotions change ife he is unchanging? why dosent he just make the evil disappear? HOW THE HELL DOES THIS MAKE SENSE TO ANYONE??????
