It's understandable why some people think that humans evolved from ape-like creatures, but how is saying that complex life forms arose spontaneously from molecules floating around in the sea any more plausible than myth? There is no proven mechanism by which molecules can give rise to simple organisms that later give rise to more complex ones like dinosaurs, just because evolution can happen among very closely related species. A single mutation
has very little chance of benefiting an organism, so the chances that millions of organisms can have the right combination of mutations to adapt to their environment is pretty much none. If you try to write a working code for a computer program by wildy mashing buttons, you will not make any progress even if you had all the time in the world. Evolution is the default theory based on process of elimination, for lack of a better explanation without using religion. Evidence of evolution or religion doesn't always have to exclude the other.

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Something like that.

He was a human. Why have you made this poor man into something so evil that damns people to hell for not following him?
Come on now, he was a spiritual being who followed his heart, nto a book.

i remember some verses in the Quran that protect a believer from the tricks of the anti-christ, do u know which one?

here are some words from Muhammad (P) regading this anti-christ.

-"Since the birth of Adam (A.S.) till the advent of Qiyamah (judgement day) there is no fitnah (evil, test) much greater that of Dajjal (anti-christ)."

-"Those who hear about Dajjal should stay far from him. By Allah! A person will approach him thinking him to be a Believer, but on seeing his amazing feats he will become his follower."

-"I have explained Dajjal to you but I fear that you might not have understood. Maseeh Dajjal will be short, and his legs will be crooked. The hair on his head will be extremely twisted. He will have one eye while his other eye will be totally flat. It will neither be deep (in its socket) nor protruding."

The first part should be answered in one word (heaven or hell) and the second a simple answer. I am not looking for answers on why you believe this or for anyone to convince anyone of anything. I simply want a cross-reference and tally of responses.

Jus want to know, I see so many questions about religions, and so much negative talk about God or doubt. I find it hard to believe that people can still be this hateful, I am a recovering addict, and I got high and still knew that God was the way to go, I just wanted to do what I wanted, and I did not want to hurt--people that do not get high or have never gotten high-I just wonder what is their problem with GOD

We don't have any proof that an almighty god created the universe. We also don't have any proof that an almighty unicorn created the universe. How is one supposed to decide on which to worship, an almighty god that can do anything and everything, or an almighty unicorn that can do anything and everything? There is no factual evidence to point someone in the right direction.

Also, did you know that missing Sunday Mass without a serious reason is a mortal sin? Now you know.

Read the Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC) #2181.

Why is idolatory so wrong when hindus are more tolerant towards men and animals alike more so than christians and muslims! It helps a person focus. Even christians have photos of christ and the cross itself, is that not idolising?. I know for a fact. Muslims put photos of kaba in their homes. Even the quran and bible is used as a focal point wrapped in special cloth. Is that not idolatory afterall it is an inanimate object?

Think about it.
It's a creation to make you feel inferior and unworthy without God, what sort fo God is this way?
Can't you tell this is all man-made?
BTW, it's not about trying to be different. It's about awareness and the desire to follow one's heart.
