look in the news, everywhere. Muslims are taking over. And doesn't it only seem logical considering they are descendants of Ishmael, Jacob's (father of the Jews) half-brother and rival. 2 Muslims bored one of our school-buses and nobody stopped them, they wanted to see how easy it was to get into our schools, and found out it was pretty darn easy. We are electing them into our governmental offices, before you know it, we'll be swearing on the Koran instead of the Bible. In some northern cities, they blow the horn for the Muslims call to prayer. they are installing places to wash feet for Muslims prayer time in Colleges and Universities. It's only a matter of time. I think that the one-world religion is going to be Islam, and I only hope I'm dead and gone before it happens (which is gonna be a while considering I'm only 16). i'd like your thoughts....

How do you know that the DEVIL hasnt somehow infiltraited your religion and altered the bible? I mean it does say in there narrow is the path and few that will make it or something... when you think that christianity is one of the largest religions on earth and then factor in the brutal past it has... "By their works ye shal know them..." so...
I'm just sayin' if I was the devil the first thing I would do was mess with the word of god...


I'm an atheist but... still curious...

I had some interesting responses to my last question regarding the genocide of Jericho:

"genocide in the bible is merely pagans being done with"

Does this mean that the wives and children of all pagans should be murdered and their money given to the church? Or is this just a "metaphor"?

"...Sundays school and basic bible teachings must have been missed a lot this last millenium
put down the ipod and pc, and videos and read your history books,and bible, full of history..and you might get a b on your next question, f for this one...no merit and no substancial evidence."

Now your getting it!!! Yes, I agree that the book I am referring to has absolutely no merit and couldn't possibly be considered substantial evidence. Funny that a Christian pointed this out while not answering the question given regarding the mass genocide described in the book of Joshua, chapter 6.

"...did they stop teaching sunday school in the last decade or what"

Yes, Thank GOD

What do you think

...and what if that belief in Santa was destructive because other people disputed it, but believed in the Tooth Fairy instead, which lead to war? And to make matters worse, other people believed in neither Santa or the Fairy, but believed in the Boogy Man instead, which lead to more violence? What would you do to help these people that were really good at heart, but misled?

I always misjudge them. I think I'm very good at reading people, and I usually am, the only time it fails is when I'm looking for a date/boyfriend. I try soooo hard to find the smart nice guys, but it never works out that way... I think of myself as at least above average intelligence, and whenever I think I've found someone who I think I could actually carry on a decent conversation with, I turn out to be wrong.

Of the last 3 boyfriends I had:
1. stupid as ****
2. stupid as **** and cheated on me
3. stupid as ****, shoved me all the time AND cheated on me.

Why am I so bad at picking guys??? Do you guys have any advice?

In many religions, even if they do not blatantly express that you must not associate with someone of your own faith, is it not as harmful to the individual or religious cause in general to even feel a sense of "pity" for those that do not believe in the same things as you do?

Amnesty claim that women in certain countries are being denied access to certain health care services - especially abortion clinics.
Do the unborn have no rights? As a moral question, I am insensed at Amenisty, should I be? shouldn't you be? I will never understand the violence done to women or indeed against any form of life in our society, including abortion, what say you as a christian?
P.s Reseach this yourself and yes this is an appropriate forum

I wanted to contribute a question for commentary or possible panel discussion regarding: "Men within the Church that are neglecting their role as priest of their household to pursue career driven ministry". I have been observing that many in our church families are being torn apart because of this growing epidemic. Everyone is so impressed about the growing numbers that they are overlooking the cost to families.
I can’t help but question “ why would God call our us to Minister to others before we minister to our loved ones?”. It would seem as though Hollywood dreams and Christian Emmys are being fostered even by unaware congregation in supporting these types of Ministries by promoting them. Some of these are also deviating from the true Gospel. I cannot imagine Joseph putting his capentry business before being a good role model to Jesus even as a step-parent.I would imagine he took his role seriously. So obviously God entrusted Joseph with His son. Would not the same God expects us to place our values were it is needed the most? Support of family is very important but how can we support something that is breaking lives apart to build others up? Please let me know if I am wrong for feeling this way?
