Society & Culture - 4 December 2006

I am sick and tired watching Christians, Muslims and Jews fighting and verbally abusing each other's religions. Religions were communicated to mankind for two purposes; one is Human/God or Creature/Maker relationship and the other is Human/Human relationship. What we see now is humanity being divided into groups each is badmouthing the other and believe me; nothing good will come out of this. It is in no one interest to go back to religious wars and kill each other. If God wanted us ALL to be of one single faith don't you think he could have done it? and while he's at it why not make us all one race with the same skin colour and physical traits. The idea of civilization is to develop ourselves and cross the boundary of being different and know how to live together in harmony. Do I approve of what Muslims are doing now, or what Hitler did in ww2 or the Turks did with the Armenians, HELL NO! this was all madness that we should leave behind and be worthy of the word Human beings..

seem to project hatred for others who follow different faiths. Doesn't this go against the very basis of most religions? Can you not teach them and learn from them instead of ignoring them and trying to force them that your way is right?

There is no need to sling anger at anyone especially when you don't know them or their views but it seems to be a sign of the times. Sorry.

I hope everyone can give me educated, productive answers. I am trying to learn something here- people.

I can't decide if it would be better to go ahead and send them, or wait another week. I want to make sure they get there before Christmas, and some of them have to go out of state. Do I do them now, or wait? I'm new at this! I got married in September, and I want to do the whole family Christmas thing with my new husband. Thank you!!

ever wondered why suicide bombers blow them self's up..

from what av read in many post's and questions. allot ov people think its all to do with getting women in heaven(70 virgin's),,,

but why would u blow urself up for that..could it not be that mybe they are,, feed-up of oppression , poverty , treatment , and have nothing to live for etc etc..

why do (most) people,, not try to solve the problem's that they face, instead of making fun and hating them.

p.s.. I DO NOT..support suicide bombing..because in Islam(my religion),,suicide is forbidding and is an unforgivable (SIN).. and killing innocent people IS AND IN ALL CASES an unforgivable (SIN)..which will lead THE PERSON ''HELL''..

what do u think,, ?

and thank you..

I have been asking Muslims which translation of the Quran into English is the most true to the original. No one is helping me.

Can someone please reccomend the best translation of the Quran into English? I expect a book with some extra information on the meaning of some Arabic words might also be helpful to me.

Many tahnks,

I found out one was you can't smoke. I would like to know if there are any others before I try to join. I used to smoke and do still occasionally, I can quit altogether no problem, I just want to make sure there are no other surprises when I go to join.

Looking specifically for Catholic doctrine... I'm not sure if my question is clear, though. I am wondering if any of the abilities, etc that Christ imparted to the apostles were specific to the physical people that Christ sent out personally. IE, an example of Catholic doctrine of an ability that didn't die with them, as I understand it, would be the ability to forgive sins.

I am a girl, I have a boyfriend. I am a virgin.
Lately, I started talking about how i don't understand how people have sex, and what is the pleasure for women. I don't think personally that there can be any pleasure for a woman to have a dick inside her. I also think that there are higher risks than pleasure in sex for women(stds, pregnancys). and whats the point of having sex, if you don't enjoy it. i hear it hurts too...
so is that a sign of me not liking guys. I really do, it's just the sex part that I don't EVER want to deal with.
