Jewish children learn from childhood to go to other kingdoms and overpower the kings/government and wipe them from memory. This is part of their bible and they are convinced that they have the right to go into other countries and dominate others. The Jewish, Christian and Muslim all claim to have god written literature, which is the cause and instigator of hate, manipulation and murder. Constitutions need to change with time and freedom to religion should only be granted to religions that do not have hate in their text, otherwise we will not move out of this mud of hate.

Why do you think you have to put all that makeup on to be beautifull? it is not what God intended. Read about the woman in the Bible who wore makeup.
2Kings 9:30-37, Prov 6:25, Ezek 23:40-49 .
Dont cover up the beauty God gave you. When you put all that stuff on you are just telling God he did not do a great job at creating you.
Be the bride he will be looking for, someone who is pure and all natural. You are Beautiful.

I don’t dislike gays but I’m opposed to homosexuality. Can you accept this? I am a Christian so I don’t support homosexuality per se. But that doesn’t mean I have to hate gays. I have known many nice gay people who make otherwise great model Christians, more so than some people who are opposed to homosexuality but break every other commandment in the book. I had a high school friend who was gay, but I wasn’t going to ruin a friendship by bringing that issue up. It may be an authority figure like a pastor or parent’s job to talk to him, but it certainly wasn’t mine. My point is don’t judge an overall person because they are gay. Aggressively bashing gays isn’t Christian, neither are hate crimes. That along with turning people away from the church because of those actions is the devil’s work. And it’s also not fair to label a person who is only defending God’s word as homophobic, because that’s bigoted too. People who are truly liberal would understand this. Another thing, homosexuality is a very gray area. There’s choice homosexuality where they flat out sin and then there’s the people who have a genetic disposition to it, so they may have a harder time not having romantic feelings for men. I am not sure what the right thing for those people to do is, but not being one of those people or being an expert on that type of situation I don’t think I judge.

I consider myself an ever growing Christian. I know the Bible is the ordained and inspired Word of God, and I know the history of the apochrapha and Biblical Cannon. But I founf this link, wich is quite informative about some books left out of the Bible and why.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banned_from_the_Bible

Does it concern any of you, as Christians, that we dont have these books to study also, or are you relying on Faith that God made sure all we needed to know got through? Just curious, cause I myself would like to read the missing stuff.

By this logic, Christians should believe that male is superior than female..

I think Islam does not give any sex to their God while in Hinduism the Gods have both sexes........

According to catholism, virgin Mary was sinless. God grace Kept her from the “curse of the original sin”.

If that’s so easy for God then why don’t he do it to all of us? Why did Christ have to come die as atonement for sins?

Ok, if you love a person a lot. And they mean everything to you and you know you can see this person as someone you spend the rest of your life with is it ok to have sex with them (religiously speaking) cause marriage is just kind of a ceremony and a piece of paper.

The Basis of Jesus’ journey to the underworld(hell) after death is found in the Gospel of Nikodemus, if I am not mistaken.

Can someone tell me where this Gospel is, why is it not in the Bible if it is suppose to be true?

God commanded us to remember the seventh day Sabbath. Why do most Christians not keep this commandment or keep it holy. Most Christians do their on pleasure on that day and wouldn't think twice about working on it. If you break the least of these commandments and teach men to do likewise you will be least in the kingdom of God. We should listen to God and not man that changed this holy day that God sanctified. Why don't more Christians get this. It was one of the first things the Holy Spirit began teaching me. We are not under God's law but they should be written on our hearts and we should want to do what is pleasing to him. If there's the least doubt that this could be true shouldn't we do what God said and not the traditions of men?

Most people know that there are many similarities between Jesus and Krishna, Attis, Dionysys, Osiris and Mithras. These Similarities Includes “virgin birth, dying on cross, godly status, ressurection, etc.

Know tell me, why would God send Jesus to “imitate” these myths (that is if Jesus was meant to die on a cross for atonement of sins)? Wouldn't God then be like a copycat? Surely God would do not want Jesus to have similar qualities to the other “myths” since God is the one true god.

Lets look at the history: As soon as the so-called loving Christians destroyed Rome, they tried to wipe out any sign of traditional religions of the land. Europe was a victim of this hate organization. Where thousands had their heads cut of for not wanting to covert to Christianity. There was a systematic destruction of all the non-Christian religious sites and literature; this went on for over one thousand years. The goal of Christianity was to “Deface all the other religions” Then this holocaust went to new world. Christians wiped out every connection with traditional religions in America, and most of Africa.

Now they try to attack any new religions (eg. Scientology) and they are preventing citizens of the world from learning about their traditional religions that were exterminated by Christianity.

I dont understand why people say they turned on God, or stopped believing in him because he didn't answer their prayers.
God only answers prayers in accordance to His will. If you, as a Christian, are not supposed to have it, no amount of prayer will change that. And why would he answer them, if you are so easily turned away from him, nothing would ever be good enough.

For instance, when I first became pregnant, I prayed everyday to suddenly not be pregnant. Miscarry if you will, and I prayed and prayed. My daughter is now 10, and the best thing that ever happened to me. God did not give me what I wanted at the time, and wothin a year I saw he gave me exactly what I needed, when I needed it, even though I didn't realize it at the time.

Isn't it possible the unanswered prayer is sometimes the answer?

Church attendance in U.S.A.is gradually diminishing.In almost all churches and public meetings someone gives "witness"to God`s miracles as though everyone requires a proof of Jesus` power.Preachers enjoin Christians not to visit places of worship of other religions to avoid destraction.A lot of cash is spent for propagating faith.
