If god created christians, allah - muslims, jehovah - j. witnesses, etc, then why did these super powers create us almost all the same?
There is less than .1% difference genetically between all human beings so why the same? Did they get together and have a meeting to make sure they were all on the same track? Who is responsible for earth, solar system?
Who is right?

This question assumes a western culture where you have a choice...I certainly mean no harm to oppressed woman in Islamic countries, who, outside their state of oppresion, might very well chose to join civilization instead of being a Muslimah.

HONEST REPLIES ONLY ---

My honest experience is, that the most insecure woman, who are muslim and live in the west, chose to wear hijab. Typically, a woman who is confident and also still pridefully clings to some part of her Islamic upbringing, will not wear a hijab.

Insecure woman can be good-looking, although, to be frank, every western muslim woman (except one woman I saw on ET) I have ever seen in Hijab has been honest-to-goodness hideous.

We had numbers or initials instead of names? Seems I hear a lot of people who use the name to make fun of the people, like "Jamal," "Ahmad," "Todd," etc. If somebody only had different color skin and was "IBC924" would they seem less different?

Why should I respect them for that? It doesn't make Christianity any less false. It doesn't change the fact that their religion is money grabbing. Shouldn't they dedicate their lives to something constructive and useful? The argument that their stupidity should be respected because they have been gullible for many years is just further stupidity, is it not?

religions operate. 1- is it true they all believe in the same God?
Because if they do, I can't see what all the fuss is about. It was suggested to me that they all intepretate the teachings of the Holly Books to suit their own ends and this is why they can't agree with each other, hence all the many wars commited in it's name over the millenia.
To me that sounds too simplistic. Maybe some of you could clue me, but please don't make long quotations from your Holly Books, I'd like to hear what your heart tells you.

Another thing I'm confused about. Do they all, in someway, teach ever lasting life? What a boring existance that would be, at least for me.If I'm a Christian, will I have to singing my praises to Christ for eternity, being in spirit form what else would there be to do?
If a Muslim fanatic do I spend my time having sex with virgins if I blow myself up taking as many innocent Muslims, Jews and Christians with me, I mean, where are they going to go?
Yes simplistic

God didnt have to make monkeys right? I mean, he could have totally left, creatures with 98% the same DNA and similar skulls and similar hands, out of the picture.

Follow me?

Why did God allow hominid fossil remains to be scattered where Darwin predicted they would be found? Or maybe the devil set that one up...snuck them bones into Africa after he inspired Darwin to predict that the precursor to man would be found there...

Ok, fine, so maybe God set-up all this trickery...but to test what...who was the dumbest and most capable of blind zombie worship?

Prisons are the worst place you ever what to go? Most teens and some adults have never seen prisons do not even know what it is like. We need tours so everyone will know. It can sure keep people from making bad decisions. What do you think?

DO YOU KNOW HIM AS YOUR LORD AND PERSONAL SAVIOUR, OR WILL U MEET HIM AS YOUR JUDGE WHEN HE SENDS YOU TO THE LAKE OF FIRE?

REPENT OF YOUR SINS TODAY, ASK THE LORD JESUS TO FORGIVE YOU AND COME INTO YOUR HEART AND DWELL WITHIN YOU.

SEARCHING?
