I am Christian but I am so sick of hearing other Christians saying that just because someone rejects God and Jesus they will go to hell. If an Atheist is a good person throughout his/her life and did not commit any major sins, why would God send them to hell? Would God send a good person to hell just because that person did not believe in him?

The golden rule is universal in most religions. It requires that we treat other people the way we would like to be treated: with civility and compassion. It seems like this rule is needed more today than ever.

His username is Pisslam Queeran, and just by looking at the username you can tell he is here to spread propoganda!

If you look at his question's he has set he is blatantly a sad person trying to stir hatred.

Even though I'm not Muslim, Im still shocked that this site is not moderated properly such as the BBC!


Thank you

Why do bigots commonly use the Bible to justify their biases and hatreds? Throughout history, slavery, the subjegation of women, hatred of homosexuals, fear of foreigners, repression of minorities, and justification for wars have been validated by selectively quoting Bible verses that authorize the war or permit the hatred. If the Bible's message is one of love and inclusiveness, why is it so often used for exactly the opposite purpose?

yea the idea of religion is to explain everything that is in terms, unexplainable. am neutrel (meaning am not a religous person or atheist). so religion can cause ignorance and intolerance.

I've read that some people think that dinosaurs were put on this planet as a test of faith. If that's the case, why do we possess logic? According to these people, even though there is overwhelming evidence of dinosaurs, we're supposed to ignore what logic tells us and blindly believe, even though logic's necessary to our decision-making and daily lives and what have you. I don't understand why our brain operates the way it does if we're encouraged to ignore it in certain situations.

Surly it can't be based on that 1 little bit of the bible (which can't actually be proved to be factually accurate) that says there will be wars (which there always have been) earthquakes (which there always have been) and famine (which oh look there always has been) so where is jesus then?

The Lord’s hands are larger then mine,
and they hold my life in them.
They give me strength to carry on
when I believe he can.
When I am lost God can find me
and lead me like his sheep.
When the sky gets dark and dreary
he can shine his light on me.
The Lord can slay a lion
and make a storm be calm,
because in faith he holds unto
the world inside his palm.

“…'Aisha further said, "Once the Prophet was screening me and I was watching the DISPLAY OF BLACK SLAVES IN THE MOSQUE and ('Umar) scolded them.” http://www.islamicity.com/mosque/sunnah/bukhari/015.sbt.html#002.015.103

Shocking that even one black person would be a Muslim. Beyond comprehension.

I am not black, however, I believe all races are essentially the same in their core humanity, therefore, I try to imagine myself in the same shoes. Could I ever join a religion in which the very founding prophet owned and preferred to own members of my race? F*** no!

All historians no that Muslims traded more blacks into slavery than all other cultures or people combined. Muslims traded black slaves long before trans-Atlantic slave routes through their sub-Saharan trade routes. Then, when trans Atlantic trade routes emerged, it was rare indeed if any black slave didnt pass once through the hands of a Muslim. Of course, the Islamic sub saharan trade route continues today

I've been studying this for awhile now and would like to see what other people think about it. Like the year Jesus comes back, Satan let loose on the world and judgement day. Our calander officaly ends November of this year, speculation that Jesus returns. Tribulation begins. Mayan calander ends December 2012, Beginning of Judgement days. Satan rules world for 3.5 years which should start in 2009. That would basicly give Christ 3.5 years and Satan 3.5 years. Anyone else have similar ideas?

This creature appears five times in the Old Testament, but it is generally understood to be a great sea monster, mosterous fish, or perhaps even a Nile crocodile or large snake (see Rashi's (Rabbi Shlomo Yitzchaki's) commentary).

It is also mentioned twice in the Talmud, including "If a flame can fall a cedar, what hope does a small tree have? If a Leviathan can be hooked and hauled to land, what hope has a fish in a puddle?" (Moed Katan (25b))

The only reference I could find linking it to any prehistoric creatures, like dinosaurs, is a theory in cryptozology, that it may have been an aquatic creature such as a Plesiosaurus. But if that's the case, how does one account for the discovered remains being dated to the Jurrasic period (which extends back roughly 200 million years ago and ends about 146 million years ago)?

Surely a Christian would not rely on such scientific theories, would he/she?

So let me get this strait. You Christians believe that god created angels, and allowed them to leave god and magically get power, thus creating Satan. He then let Satan build a dream home of evil (Hell) and the two struck up a deal. God had billions of souls that were guilty of the egregiously unforgivable crime of not loving him the right way (loved God, but were not Christian), and, being so loving and forgiving, desperately needed some way to torture them in unspeakably grotesque ways for the whole of eternity. Fortunately for God, this problem that he couldn’t seem to wrap his mind around solved itself, for Satan had both the desire, and just such a place to accommodate God’s sickeningly blood-thirsty and sadistic compulsions.
