I used to until I started studying the bible. I prayed to God for wisdom and I'm guessing he gave it to me. Over time I started to realize certain characteristics of the different books were in contrast to the idea behind sola scriptura.

Many protestant denominations believe sola scriptura sometimes to a fault. I think it amounts to idolatry. If the scripture was enough why did God send his holy spirit to us?

What do you think?

I look at you all
See the love there that's sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping
Still my guitar gently weeps
I don't know why nobody told you
How to unfold your love
I don't know how someone controlled you
They bought and sold you
I look at the world and I notice it's turning
While my guitar gently weeps
With every mistake we must surely be learning
Still my guitar gently weeps
I don't know how you were diverted
You were perverted too
I don't know how you were inverted
No one alerted you
I look at you all see the love there that's
sleeping
While my guitar gently weeps
Look at you all...
Still my guitar gently weeps.

Convincing children to accept the existence of concepts for which there is no proof makes them more likely to be tricked, duped and conned for their whole lives. They get used to blindly taking peoples word without questioning what they hear. They become more malleable, controllable and more easily manipulated and sadly of all, less independent. Why do so many people insist on imprisoning their children within the cold, remorseless grip of organized religion?

I'm not talking exlusively about Yahoo Answers, but as a world view. Remember those highly contraversial anti-Semitic cartoons recently that flooded the press, for example?

Do you condone such ridicule?

expecting us to devote our entire lives to something which could be just as illusionary as immortality- where is the basis for this? why won't God in his awesome glory (I'm not being sarcastic) simply do away with doubt and show himself to us? with the very eyes he gave us why won't he let us see? surely it's within his power. it seems unnecessarily cruel to be kept in the dark.

Do you ever read answers from people waving the same flag but doing it so badly it makes you cringe?

Do Christians realize that they could be cursed as long as they oppose the purest semitic descendants of Abraham through his first son ?

God has given the LIONS share of inheritance (both spiritual and material) to the Muslims who are from the lineage of Ishmael and follow the covenant through the first son.

Anyone who came to try to take the inheritance of the Holy land from the muslims FAILED (9 Crusades, 8 failed)

The only time the Holy land would be taken away would be to allow the rise of the Evil False Messiah.

The Evil False Messiah (antichrist) will unite the world against Islam but in the end he will be defeated.

The Muslims are now the people chosen to become examples of GODS laws in practice.

******* Those who bless the Muslims will be blessed by GOD and those who curse the Muslims will be cursed by GOD. *******

The Muslims have never been cursed by God for denying ANY Prophet…….. remember that when you recite the above sentence.
