Religion & Spirituality - 18 July 2006

A true Muslim man is not supposed to do anything that the prophet Muhammad didn't do. If one remembers there was a big debate over whether or not Muslims should eat Mangos. If this is true, why in the Hell were these Islamic Fundamentalists flying airplanes?

-This question is directed towards muslims, I ask the rest to show some respect and not to post any inapropriate responses .

Today's Psychology tells us to go through all of the steps of our emotions and that we're allowed to own our feelings. I care more about God's expectations of us.

I know that James 1 says:
"2 My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, 3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience."

Not regarding spiritual attacks, but rather in regard to when something bad happens: your emotional reaction to it. For example, a loved one is taken from you (overseas maybe) and you fall apart. Is there a limit to how much of a breakdown you're allowed in God's eyes? A place where you should stop so that you can be the person He needs you to be?

I've never studied God's Word in regard to being too emotional or the flesh and emotions and am looking for help additional to my own study. Thanks!

Would they say "People never got sick, that's rubbish." and then become atheists?

"If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them: Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place; And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard. And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die: so shalt thou put evil away from among you; and all Israel shall hear, and fear." -- Deuteronomy 21:18-21

I looked it up in the original bible and this is what I found:
יח כִּי-יִהְיֶה לְאִישׁ, בֵּן סוֹרֵר וּמוֹרֶה--אֵינֶנּוּשֹׁמֵעַ, בְּקוֹל אָבִיו וּבְקוֹל אִמּוֹ; וְיִסְּרוּ אֹתוֹ, well, not enough room but you can look it up in the hebrew for yourself.

torn between obeying the law of god and the law of man

In Exodus when Moses after breaking the first tablets, God gave him another set, then Moses asked the People who will follow God, and the ones that didn't come to that side, fell into a firery pit when the ground opened, In the New Testament if we accept Christ and follow God we will have eternal life and those who don't will go into that firery pit, its happened before, why don't people come to understand it will happen again?

Pundit Vedaprakash Upadhyay, a Hindu professor, in his stunning book claims that the description of the" Avatar" found in the Holy books of the Hindu religion, matches the Holy Prophet Mohammed (PUBH).

Evidence given includes:-
God would teach Kalki Avatar through His messenger (angel) in a cave. Allah taught Prophet Mohammed (PBUH) through His messenger Jibraeel (Gabriel), in a cave known as Ghaar-e-Hira.

God would provide Kalki Avatar with a very speedy horse to ride and travel the whole world and the seven skies. Indication of burraq (Horse) and Me'raaj (the night when Prophet [PBUH] travelled the seven skies).

God would provide Kalki Avatar with divine help. This was particularly proved in the Battle of Badr.

Another dazzling account given about Kalki Avatar was that he would be born on the 12th of a month. Whereas the Prophet Mohammed (PBUH) was born on the 12th of Rabbi ul Awwal (Hijra Calendar).

Kalki Avatar would be an excellent horse rider and swordsman

I was only asking for Christians to read my post earlier. I didn't want to offend non-believers! I don't understand why non-believers went to a question that said ONLY CHRISTIANS!? I never click on the heinous questions that I know would offend me!

I mean no harm! I will pray for you all and hope that God may BLESS you!

If you feel the HOLY SPIRIT convicting your HEART, give him a chance! Anger won't solve your emptiness you feel! Jesus LOVES you and he DIED FOR YOU! He DIED so you could go to HEAVEN! Believe in JESUS and ask HIM into your heart so you may KNOW you are going to HEAVEN!

John 3:16

Why would an all-powerful god become flesh in order to sacrifice himself to himself so that his creation might escape the wrath of himself. Couldn't god, in his infinite wisdom, come up with something a little more efficient?

Every other question in YA is about suicide bombing and Islamic terrorism which is in my humble opinion just fabricated media propaganda against Islam. Why when Israel and America destroy whole countries (Lebanon, Iraq, Gaza), and thousands of innocent people killed no body cares for those.

Let's say a small child in a isolated village that has never seen the outside world is born and raised to respect his elders, help others, and treat people kindly. Let's say he's a pillar of the community and wouldn't even dream of sinning. He doesn't know Jesus and has never heard of him. All he knows it what is in his tiny village. Is he going to Hell when he dies even though he didn't really have the chance or choice in accepting Jesus?
I'm curious to know some opinions on this from Christians. Please let's be polite I'm looking for points of view and opinions on my question alone. I already know the atheistic answer I want a theistic view point. Thank you.

The bible says that God created Adam & Eve; however, sciencetist say dinosaurs were around before humans. Is that why they're not mentioned in the Bible?

I have proof that he does.


god supposedly made humans but some humans are born deformed. There might be missing an arm and isn't like all the other humans, therefore there is some mistake that god made while "creating" that human.

when it appears that the further America goes from God the worse things get?

I always hear people say back in the day we didn’t have to lock our doors, kids weren’t shooting up schools, the crime rate was lower, divorce rates were lower, neighbors looked out for each other, children could freely play outside, you could hitch a ride without worrying about getting killed, etc. Are things really better?

By the way when I say God, I’m referring to the God of the Bible.

Why are Christian's such morons?
I am so sick of it. I don't answer them myself, but sometimes they hide behind the guise of legitimate questions and you don't know just how dumb it is until you open it. I move that if we just stop answering them they will go away.
