Do they realize how much stuff was left out of the book? Therefore who is to say that what we read in the bible is 100% accurate? It could very well be the truth, but it is not the wohle truth. Therefore, you shouldn't reference the Bible alone. You should study other things and grasp a better understanding. Muslims tend to reference the Quran, Tora, and yes, the Bible. Openmindedness...c'est si bon!

My theory: It is easier to condescend someone you don't understand because you are scared, than to try to understand what makes them different. If Christians were to open their minds past what THEY see, they will probably realize a great deal of their own faults. That fear of seeing how unrighteous they have been is what makes them so closeminded...truth hurts.

This is not just aimed at christians, you could fill the blank with whatever religious group you are debating, but I would like some feedback. What are your opinions on the statement I have made?

Why do you think threatening atheists with this is going to make them change their minds?
Biblically speaking when we die we go neither to heaven nor hell....but rather a waiting room of sorts until the second coming, after a 1000 years that is when we will be judged, from what I've understood. And those that are cast into hell simply cease to exist, it is the death of the soul and nothingness.Which is what atheists believe happens when we die(spiritual death) anyways, so why then do so many of you use this as a threat?

Muslims teach that Judas, not Jesus, was crucified on the cross, in a case of mistaken identity. Muslims teach that Judas Iscariot, the betrayer and thief, is the real saviour of Christians. Muslims teach that it was actually Judas who actually died on the cross and because Judas had a similar physical appearance to Jesus even his own mother didn't recognize him as the wept at the foot of the cross. For 600 years Christians had been preaching Christ crucified. Then Muhammad comes along, jumps off his camel and gets a direct revelation from God that the universal record of history and the 10,000 manuscripts of the Bible, are all wrong.

Who's rigth? Muslims? Christians?

well for those of you who dont know, i was trying to figure out why god allowed some people to screw their sister but not me?

one of the first ones i got was that adam and eve didnt have the same father, and thats news to me, i thought that was god.
but i guess she was made from his rib so..........he either screwed his sister or he screwed HIMSELF , however you wanna look at it.

another was, god allowed some people to be incestuous and then decided to ban it......well thats got hypocrite all over that.

umm, oh yah. someone said that god just made more people for adam and eves kids to get it on with, well doesnt really make sense, why wouldnt he do that to begin with.

and lastly, even if noah's kids brought their wifes, it just means they have to sleep with their uncles children, one way or another thats good ol fashion cousin loving......and dont say its cause he was so pure, cause im damn sure he was an alchoholic.

is that all you guys have?

I mean, in most women's relationships penetrative sex is more or less compulsory.

It doesn't seem fair to me that men want sex the most and women get blamed when there are unwanted consequences. If no one hold the man equally responsible then it is hardly fair to expect a woman to carry and raise a child alone...something that effects the whole of her entire life.

I know adoption is a good idea, but I don't know any women who could go through with it.

I thought Standard German and Low German are more "clipt" and clearer, whilst High German in southern Germany is not as clear. And does Swiss German sound like German spoken in southern Germany, ie Munich?
Thanks

(1 Corinthians 5:9-13) 9 In my letter I wrote YOU to quit mixing in company with fornicators, 10 not [meaning] entirely with the fornicators of this world or the greedy persons and extortioners or idolaters. Otherwise, YOU would actually have to get out of the world. 11 But now I am writing YOU to quit mixing in company with anyone called a brother that is a fornicator or a greedy person or an idolater or a reviler or a drunkard or an extortioner, not even eating with such a man. 12 For what do I have to do with judging those outside? Do YOU not judge those inside, 13 while God judges those outside? “Remove the wicked [man] from among yourselves.”

Why did he say to remove the one who is not living as a christian from the congregation?

or who have worked for retail? I was one of them, and I was a happy go lucky person with a great personality, UNTIL I witnessed customers who told me to throw away their child's soiled diaper, a woman who wanted to return her pants back that she was wearing, a woman who was the devil who started yelling at me saying she didn't like my crucifix pendant and though I was good, and customers who threw clothing all over the racks after I cleaned it up. As a result, when I shop I never acknoledge people, when in a mall I look straight at clothes at not people. It has burned and scarred me for life, I would say. As a result, I would never want my children working for retail because of the animals out there. Few good ones, but the stress from the animal customers who want MORE!! Your thoughts.
