Please, no disrespectful answers from nonbelievers. This is an earnest question. I know what I think faith is about but I want to see what others think.

For Afzal's clemency case entire J&K Muslims cite possible civil war as the reason! and for Abu Salem's electoral contest from Mubarakpur (in UP) they say he can bring about development!. (i winder on these lines Dawood can bring about national development also!)

Have you ever wondered what the lions den must have looked like?Could it have been like an underground cave or a large stadium arena with a stone wall around it?Amazing how Daniel took that step of faith and believed in God for a miracle.I see that teaches us to trust in God.

Woman in Islam are horrifyingly oppressed, abused, and mistreated. The most obvious for of inequality is polygamy in Islam which allows a man to marry up to four women! How can this possibly be logical? Why do woman in Islam accept this. Can’t they see that when a man marries 4 women that makes a woman worth ¼ of a man? Women in Islam are literally sex slaves. “If a woman spends the night deserting her husband's bed (does not sleep with him), then the angels send their curses on her till she comes back (to her husband),” said Mohamed. Also, "If a husband calls his wife to his bed (i.e. to have sexual relation) and she refuses and causes him to sleep in anger, the angels will curse her till morning." See faithfreedom.org/Articles/quran_teaches.htm
It really is sickening: the way men treat woman as their property, deciding if they may work or if they must wear Hijab! In Islam woman exist to serve men and please them. A woman is totally governed by her father/brother/husband/Son! WHY?

Everyone here is entitled to their own opinoin or are they? Why do you think so many people reacted this way

AM I MY BROTHER'S KEEPER?
...THE HAND YOU PULL UP, MAY BE THE HAND THAT SAVES YOU!

A SIMPLE LESSON:

A rat looked through a crack in the wall to see the farmer and his wife
opening a package. What food might it contain? He was aghast to discover
that it was a rat trap. Retreating to the farmyard the rat proclaimed
the warning; "There is a rat trap in the house, a rat trap in the
house!"

The chicken clucked and scratched, raised her head and said, "Excuse me,
Mr. Rat, I can tell this is a grave concern to you, but it is of no
consequence to me. I cannot be bothered by it."

The rat turned to the pig and told him, "There is a rat trap in the
house, a rat trap in the house!"

"I am so very sorry Mr. Rat," sympathized the pig, "but there is nothing
I can do about it but pray. Be assured that you are in my prayers."

The rat turned to the cow. She said, "Like wow, Mr. Rat. A rat trap. I
am in grave danger. Duh?"

So the rat returned to the house, head down and dejected, to face the
farmer's rat trap alone.

That very night a sound was heard throughout the house, like the sound
of a rat trap catching its prey. The farmer's wife rushed to see what
was caught. In the darkness, she did not see that it was a venomous
snake whose tail the trap had caught. The snake bit the farmer's wife.

The farmer rushed her to the hospital. She returned home with a fever.
Now everyone knows you treat a fever with fresh chicken soup, so the
farmer took his hatchet to the farmyard for the soup's main ingredient.

His wife's sickness continued so that friends and neighbors came to sit
with her around the clock. To feed them the farmer butchered the pig.

The farmer's wife did not get well. She died, and so many people came
for her funeral that the farmer had the cow slaughtered to provide meat
for all of them to eat.

So the next time you hear that someone is facing a problem and think
that it does not concern you, remember that when there is a rat trap in
the house, the whole farmyard is at risk.

"Am I my brother's keeper?" (Genesis 4:9d)

Apparently according to some christains its perfectly okay to go to war because God lead the Isralites to war. Which makes me wonder then why they nedded God to lead them to war if anyone can do it, like they could have been lead to war by a Mongolian war lord, a pirate from the Carrabian, or a Texan oil billionaire, like what are we as Christains waiting for, lets all make groups and get some odd bod enthusiasts to lead us to war cause obviously that was Gods lesson, anyone can do it! Am i right, is that the message of the Bible, we dont need God to lead us to war anyone can do it?

I wonder why did Adam & Eve had genitals if they were not supposed to have sex. They could have been created without any genitals at all (theoretically). Please only serious answers.

If the 4 Gospels are all true, then Jesus' claim as Son of God must be true, and Quran claiming Jesus as only a prophet is not true?

from Quaran: 5:110 Lo! [131] God will say: "O Jesus, son of Mary! Remember the blessings which I bestowed upon thee and thy mother-how I strengthened thee with holy inspiration, [132] so that thou couldst speak unto men in thy cradle, and as a grown man; and how I imparted unto thee revelation and wisdom, including the Torah and the Gospel;
