Muhammad has brought this world more pain and sorrow than anyone at that time could have imagined. More Muslims kill other Muslims in the name of Allah than anyone else combined. Sunni vs. Shia vs. Wahhabi .... Iraqi insurgents (islamist terrorists) are killing thousands of innocent muslim iraqi civilians.

What is the explanation for all of Muhammad's errors? Was he possessed by Satan? If I believed in Satan, I would probably agree with you Christians.

In the early '70's, in the deep religious south, my father was instutionalized, for many years, for relentlessly claiming that every word of the bible was true. He would not give in to science, and tried to push these delusions on his children (my sisters and I). It was decided, by a judge, that the school system knew more than he did. He defiantly stuck to his guns. The judge decided that this level of delusion could not be allowed to influence children. Why is it now okay? What happened to my country?

Don't they make your legs look shorter, stumpier than flares or boot cut jeans???

After she was done she expalined to me I recieved all that because of three F's on my report card that came in the mail. I was able to sit down for the rest of the day.

In the TV program "The Simpsons", Homer Simpson is leading a crowd protesting the safety problem of the power plant and one of the power plant staff told the boss Homer Simpson used to work in the plant but was fired. Then the boss said: Get this Simpson character up here right now!"

What's the meaning of "this Simpson character"? Does it means "this Simpson is now being famous" ? Could you provide a couple of examples for this usage?

Thanks a lot!

Or was it some other demon, perhaps? And was Muhammad really deceived, or could he have been a willing participant in the demon's plot?

God foresaw the ruse and gave us a stern warning against the deceiver. As the Christian apostle Paul wrote in Galatians 1:6-9, long BEFORE Muhammad:

"I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed."

What do you think?

even if what you are saying is the truth--IT ISN'T YOUR TRUTH TO TELL.
just don't ask the question. "curiousity killed the cat" you don't need an answer to every meaningless thought that roams through your head. sometimes it is better just to wonder.

last question...PLEASE try not to miss me too much!!

Why is it so hard to believe in Jesus. Is it because it often requires the mindset of a fundamentalist atheist hellbent on destroying christianity. People who convince themselves that they are the avatar of logic and obsess so much over it that they've turned reality into a mathematical equation and now live in a fantasy world where everything (that inconveniences the fundy atheist) must fit his outrageous criteria.There is far less evidence that that Macedonian king Alexander the Great lived in the B.C. 300s than there is for the life of Jesus Christ as recorded in the Bible, yet nobody has made www.AlexanderTheNonExistant..
I love how athiests presume to know exactly how God 'should' be. Perhaps they's also like to tell Hideo Kojima how Solid Snake 'should' be?

It's sort of astounding to me, that people are all concerned about the earth, the water, the animals... And yet those same people will treat other human beings like [insert the s word here]

How can we as humans do that to each other?

I believe in the Bible and God, but I find myself more and more questioning the teachings of God and the Bible. I know not everything in the Bible is true, and it is foolish to blindly follow something without questioning it. Am I self hating or losing the faith?

I was born and raised in a Christian family and I even attended seminary, briefly. However, recently I have come to doubt most of my Christian beliefs. Being that I am stuck living in their house for an entire summer, how do I let them know why I'm not going to church and reading skeptical books, because they're bound to ask questions eventually and hiding this literature is only a temporary solution, without breaking their hearts? My dad is a conservative Christian, but I'm especially worried about my Mom.
