Why does he punish harmless people, there are people that are homeless, that are struggly with AIDs, childern being molested by preists, ect. He sends people to Hell just for not believing in him, even if they are good people. He just doesn't seem like a nice person.
And don't answer with "God works in misterious ways" That's not a good answer.

Maybe the realisation won't happen today and maybe not tomorrow but soon and you'll possibly spend the rest of your life regretting your mistaken beliefs and the time you wasted on them.

Re 22:16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.

Now I know my religion and I know that it was Joseph who was the descendant of David and not Mary. For Jesus to be descended of David he would have to be Joseph's son but that goes against Christian mythology. The Bible itself proves Jesus was not a divine being. Even the Old Testament said this messiah would be a descendant of David but Jesus is said to be born of a virgin. If Jesus was not Joseph's son then Joseph's line ended and there could be no savior. But to say your Jesus was born not by a virgin but by someone who got pregnant before marriage would go against beliefs. so what say you to this?

I can't believe how negative people get about answers given to questions on religion. It's actually worse than the politics section. Seeing how fast people get upset and angry in regards to religion, is that why more wars are started over religion than politics?

Re 22:16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.

Lucifer is a Latin word meaning "light-bearer" (from lux, lucis, "light", and ferre, "to bear, bring"), a Roman astrological term for the "Morning Star" the planet Venus.[1] The word Lucifer was the translation of the Septuagint Greek heosphoros, ("dawn-bearer"; cf. Greek phosphoros, "light-bearer"; itself the translation of the Hebrew Helel ben Shahar[2], Son of Dawn), used by Jerome in the Vulgate, having mythologically the same meaning as Prometheus who brought fire to humanity.


If Jesus was actually Lucifer, and all teachings were a deception as they claim Lucifer is? Then wouldn't the teaching of Jesus be one of the biggest plots of deception ever? This is directly removed from the King James Version of the Bible, yes I have read the bible, but I choose not to take everything at face value. Like some idiots!

As there is about 1.8 million named species of animal,and likely to be about 10 million in reality with the vast percentage being microscopic organisms that nevertheless would have been destroyed by a global flood,did Noah have a microscope to make sure he was sexing them correctly and pairing up accordingly?

when met with the response "No Thanks, I am not interested" when they attempt to preach?

Are they unable to accept that not everyone will believe their book simply because they believe it or is it something else?

i mean, what makes one "God" different from another? don't you think that if one person prays for something to the Christian "God" and another person prays to a Greek "God" and they both got what they wanted, that there could possibly be more than one "God"?....OR that there's no "God" and the person's own will and wishful thinking did something? Another thing, if "God" wanted us to bow down and pray at exactly noon every day, don't you think that we would fall to our knees every day at noon? or if we needed to confess our sins, that we would just blurt them out without a conscious effort?

well it is said that records of christs first 30 years are unavailable and hence there is a lot of specualtion as to his whereabouts. some suggest he was in india and received his initial teaching from a budhist monk. there are lot of other things too which i wont mention of fear of hurting emotions but you can look up the topic in wikipedia as lost years of christ!
read it an tell me something else you know about it; or maybe what you feel about it!
personaly speaking i find more on the lines of da vinci code; which by the way has been thrashed by all concerning proffesional in the respective fields!
