How many people believe in God but do not believe that Jehovah or Allah & etc are really God?

Many people believe in God but don't identify their God with the Gods of the major religions.

Is it just me or am I correct? People of color or black people are not African Americans, but Americans of African decent. I am a white guy and am an American of English decent. No one calls me an English American, so why should anyone call a black person an "African American"? So, someone who is Irish is an "Irish American" or are they an American of Irish decent? Someone from from Australia is not an "Australian American, but an American of Australian decent. What is up with this denotation of origin where as people who are born in America are termed as a country that they have never been to?

I am not hispanic, but I have noticed that folk act as if learning Spanish is not important. Often times when questions are asked about what languages would you prefer to learn, Spanish seldom is mentioned. When I tell others that I would love to become bilingual in Spanish, I get a nonchalant nod. If I had said French or German, the conversation would have gone on for infinity.

I live in El Paso, so you would think someone would say that I am doing a great thing. Do we see it as the dirty language? Please tell me, so I will know. IT IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT FOR ME TO HEAR FROM BLACKS, WHITES, AND OTHERS. I assume that hispnics support me in my endeavor.

Many people say that they are sister faiths, that they should just get along because they are the same. This is soso wrong, this couldnt be more opposite! The Bible is all about Love, the quran is about hate. Christians are told to Love thy neighbor, to show Christs Love through there love, Islam teaches that if they dont accept islam that you need to fight them, to rage jihad (holy war) until they are either dead or accept islam!

Whats your opinion ?

I say that about 75% of us go there, and it is like studying God, and purification of sins.
Others say it's just like hell without the devil, and we must stay there for thousands of years.

There is nothing outside of you that defines a purpose for life; no God who creates with some goal in mind. Humans are the only things who assign purpose or meaning because it's only humans who experience need and therefore set goals to fulfill this need.

However, there is a spontaneous functioning to life that is defined by nothing and arises from the nature of experience itself, which also arises spontaneously. Experience requires multiplicity, which is the illusory dividing of Wholeness into apparent parts. This division brings with it a sense of lack; if there is something that you are not, you must be incomplete. And so desire arises in it's infinite forms and we go about seeking it's fulfillment. This seeking is the movement that is experience, and regardless of the desire, it is always a movement back to the Wholeness which is our true nature, and the circle is complete. That's all that's happening here.

Why do Christians keep pushing religion on me? I am perfectly happy yet everyone keeps preaching god to me. I understand the theory of god, i just don't believe it. I don't try to convert you to atheism why do you feel the need to try to convert me to Christianity? Spreading the word of god to someone who is not going to believe it no matter how hard you try is a waste of time.

So the ultimate question of my little rant: Will you Christians stop trying to preach to me when I have already made my decision and don't care what you think?

InshAllah I call upon all religious people to please help in understanding what all that means, surely we can't all be right! Or can they be all saying the very same thing about each other in succession as Allah SWT described in the Quran 1428 years ago in Perfection.

I Thank you very much for all that and you know I am going to ask everyone to come in cause there is some brothers out there and sisters that just don't know they are believers but they really are. Thank you
Salam

For a while, the established church has given this idea that someone can be taken over by demonic forces. Do you believe this? If you do, then how do you believe it happens? How can someone be exorcised? If you do not believe that this is possible, what do you say to those that believe they or loved ones were taken over by demons?

Was it referring to animals, too? I'm being serious. I think animals go to Heaven when they die if God wishes for it to be. Jesus is seen riding on a white horse in Revelations. How would a horse be in Heaven if animals didn't go there?

What if you dont find heaven or God when you die? Im not presenting God as not existing, Im just saying what if the answers you think you will find at the end of this life cycle dont get revealed. Have you thought about this? If so, tell me what you think. Please no bible quotes.

Do I REALLY owe random people an answer for how I live my life? I thought that when you are an adult, you live your life by choices & live by the rewards or consequences based on your actions. People are telling me what I should & shouldn't do. Or what I can & can't do & always try to run my life. & they always try to tell me what I need to do with my life, & I tell them, I don't wanna do this & that or that I can't do this & that, & they ask why. & when I tell them why, they're saying I'm making up excuses.

Do I REALLY owe people an answer for how I decide to live my life? I don't do drugs, I don't drink or smoke, I'm not a criminal. But they think I make bad decisions by doing what makes me happy. For example, I can't even buy fast food ONCE in 3 months without being verbally chastised & people demanding an answer for why I spent my money. & because they see me do something once they think I do it every day.

All they do is spout crap like this......

If a truth exists, then all other is false. There can be only one absolute truth.
"I am the way the truth and the life."

Give me a break, this is utter nonsense. There can be only one.......Highlanderism.

Why cant they just answer a question without reciting some obscure passage from a book? Tell me why cant they think for themselves and come up with an intelligent answer?

We have been sleeping together for 5 months, we deeply love each other and plan to marry, we do not have the finances and were hoping to wait a little longer than 6 months! despite this we have both just become born again christians and have decided to do this for god.
We are finding it extreemly difficult. We dont know what is allowed and what is not allowed. Are we allowed to sleep in the same bed? Its very confusing. Please help.
