Since christianity and islam have spent their histories slaughtering each other, and those who don't believe in their way, and since judaism was never a world religion -
what do you think will be the next great world religion?
Buddhism? Jainism?
who will make up the next great world religion, like scientology, and what country do you think it will come from?

It has been suggested that this might be helpful for me. Would you share your experience--was it positive and helpful? I'm not usually comfortable in group situations. This is not a "trick" question.

I tend to be a very nervous person, and people always tell me that I shouldn't worry because everything is under the control of God. I also hear that you will never be given a trial that is more than you can handle. But people can do whatever they want, so doesn't that mean that they can go against His plan? Like, maybe God planned for me to live to be 95 and for this other guy, Bob, to be a doctor. But Bob decides to use his free will and randomly shoot me. That isn't under God's control. So how can I stop being anxious all the time?

Let's suppose God is an omniscient being who knows and sees all (omnipresence and omnipotence aside... for now). He knew from the day he decided to create the angels that one of them would try to betray him, and that he would be forced to caste him into a lake of fire to burn for all eternity. God created Lucifer, did he not? He knew that Lucifer would come to Adam and Eve and tempt them with the Fruit of Passion, did he not? So why did God seemed so shocked when Lucifer betrayed him, or Adam and Eve ate the fruit? Did God NOT know this would happen? Why did he act so irrationally when he threw them out of Eden? Why didn't God just NOT make Lucifer? Wouldn't everything be okay now, and we'd all be feasting in the Garden of Eden? In a way (I know this sounds trite...), is God not to blame for all suffering?

It seems that religious and non-religious people alike come here daily to ask silly questions to get even sillier responses. Few seem genuinely sincere and open-minded to intelligent opinions and mainly want to justify their static positions. So in that light, what does supporting this faceless forum say about the state of our society and us as individuals?
