" I know the buddha was a megalomaniac, a hater of woman, a dictator(he wanted to control every detail of his follower's lifes), a hater of tradition, a hater of family. Besides that, I think he developed some spiritual understanding, but he twisted it to his own ends"

I have feelings that there is a higher being but there is this feeling deep down inside of me that leads me to believe that it is all absurd. What can I do to find my place in this world?

A real Christian Quote

"Jesus is basically reinforcing the Jewish religious norms of his time. It was actually o.k. for a Jewish man to hit his wife. Societies and cultures change and so do religious "laws." When you look at the big picture of how Jesus lived and what he taught, you see that he was willing to go against religion when it was oppressive."

.....and there isn't anything in the Bible that says they will be there. Please tell me he is wrong. Anybody know of a verse that says about the afterlife for our pets. I know in biblical days, though people had animals but they weren't too many of them kept as "pets". Do you think this is why nothing is said in the Bible. Thanks!

I've compared two different ones(KJV & NWT? i think) and the KJV had verses that were taken out of the other translation!

And some translations were done by Atheists! One version(not sure which one) took all refences to the virgin birth out!



I think we should stick with the KJV? what do you think?

I always get chewed out by somebody for not being on topic, but once in a while it's fun to break for a few seconds and answer a rather frivolous question. Here's one! I apologize in advance.

What is your earliest memory in life? How old were you at the time?

Islam, Judaism and Christianity claim the same God/Allah and the same history, at least up to Abraham and Ishmael. And yet Muslims say the other scriptures cannot be trusted. Only the Quran as told to Mohammed is the true word of God/Allah.
If it is the same God/Allah, then the messages should be in agreement.
I invite serious responses from faithful Muslims, Jews and Christians. Please show respect for each other.

I joined a Christian chat room and went in and was having a chat with a person in Ireland, I was telling them about how I live in a Reservation with Native Americans and how it was illegal for them to speak their native language until 1979 and how it is still illegal for them to Ghost Dance, we the moderater flipped out and said I was talking about Indian witchcraft, I tried to explain that Native American Indians do not practice witchcraft and in fact they consider witches and warlocks bad medicine and the moderater banned me from the room without discussion or hearing me out. I feel this was discrimination, bigotry and ungodly of this person, what do you think?

" Buddha is just one of many false gods. The bible says that there should be no other gods before God. Christianity is the only faith thats savior has come. EVERY other religion is still looking for answers, waiting for a savior, and still asking why"

Then why wasn't it replaced for ALL of the times that it appears in the NT?

How did the Watchtower decide which LORDs to change and which not? Since they said it wasn't in the manuscripts?

Example:

KJV John 20:20
And when he had so said, he shewed unto them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the LORD.
