Why do people in America have such hate towards Muslims, and then turn around and say that they are hateful. Isn't that a double standard?
And hasn't every religion been in the spotlight for doing evil things.

And all the true Christians, who go by the Bible, doesn't it say in the New Testmant we live by God's grace, and not an eye for an eye. So are we terroist to?

I'm Christian and I was wondering what everyone else thought?
I know theres a great definition in Proverbs 21 and feel that's good guide lines. But I think I remember that the Bible also says wives should teach their children, does that mean they have to homeschool their children or be devoted to them in such a fashion. Please use biblical verse(s) to support your opinion.

Isn't it possible to believe in God and evolution? Jesus said that he spoke in parables, like the Bible. Why don't atheists admit that the story of creation, along with much of the Bible, is a parable? It is a story with a moral.

READ any newspaper. Look at television, or listen to the radio. There are so many stories of crime, war, and terrorism! Think about your own troubles. Perhaps illness or the death of a loved one is causing you great distress. You may feel like the good man Job, who said that he was “drenched with misery.”—Job 10:15, The Holy Bible in the Language of Today.

Ask yourself:

▪ Is this what God purposed for me and for the rest of mankind?

▪ Where can I find help to cope with my problems?

▪ Is there any hope that we will ever see peace on the earth?

The Bible provides satisfying answers to these questions.

THE BIBLE TEACHES THAT GOD WILL BRING ABOUT THESE CHANGES ON THE EARTH.

“He will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore.”—Revelation 21:4

“The lame one will climb up just as a stag does.”—Isaiah 35:6

“The eyes of the blind ones will be opened.”—Isaiah 35:5

“All those in the memorial tombs will . . . come out.”—John 5:28, 29

“No resident will say: ‘I am sick.’”—Isaiah 33:24

“There will come to be plenty of grain on the earth.”—Psalm 72:16

"A fire-breathing dragon lives in my garage."

Suppose I seriously make such an assertion to you. Surely you'd want to check it out, see for yourself. There have been innumerable stories of dragons over the centuries, but no real evidence. What an opportunity!

"Show me", you say, and I lead you to my garage. You look inside and see a ladder, empty paint cans, an old tricycle - but no dragon

"Where's the dragon", you ask.

"Oh, she's right here", I reply, waving vaguely. "I neglected to mention that she's an invisible dragon".

You propose spreading flour on the floor of the garage to capture the dragon's footprints. "Good idea", I say, "but this dragon floats in the air". Then you'll use an infrared sensor to detect the invisible fire. "Good idea, but the invisible fire is also heatless", I say. You'll spray-paint the dragon and make her visible. "Good idea, except she's an incorporeal (bodyless) dragon and the paint won't stick!"

Everyone is a sinner anyway, and why would gay marriage be a worse sin than other sins. Doesn't the first and most essential commandment say not to worship other gods, so does that mean it should be illegal to have other religions besides the judeo-christian ones? That's why your job is to save souls, not to get involved in politics and control what the entire secular world does. Your religious beliefs, whether or not they're right, is not a valid reason for creating laws in this country, which is something many people don't understand. Having gay marriage would also certainly be more preferable and less annoying than having gays being turned into victims and martyrs.

I mean, sure, it's a little annoying when you get a "Jesus loves you" as an answer to a math problem (and yes, I have seen this!), but I actually think it's kind of nice that somebody is concerned about my immortal soul. I don't know where my spiritual journey will take me, but being here on Yahoo has really given me some perspective. I've seen more than a few trolls, but the majority of answers I've gotten to my questions have been respectful and well thought out.

I'm not sure I'd want my kids reading it. A lot of smut, violence and scary stories, if you ask me. And they leave copies lying around hotel rooms for anyone to access.

I heard Arabs believe they descended from Abraham-I think from the time when Abraham had one child (Ishmael) by Hagar the Egyptian.But from what I know that blood didn't spread to all Arabs to mingle Hebrew blood with their own,in fact I thought Ishmael's tribe died out at some point,not spread all through out Arabia as Muslims believe.Even if Abrahams blood did spread it would have a been a small amount I think,as it would take more than one dose to really mix up millions of Arabs.But the Arabs believe they share bllod with the Jews.Now it is true they are all Semites which are Mid-East people,but I don't think they have a direct national bloodline to the Jews,like they believe.

I still have yet to hear a logical explanation of the Trinity from anyone. It's possible to be one in purpose without being the same actual being. For example, my wife and I are united in purpose as parents and essentially operate as a single unit even though we are two separate people. However, we're far from perfect and we don't always agree. Being perfected beings, God (Our Heavenly Father) Jesus Christ (His Son and our Savior) and the Holy Ghost/Spirit (The Comforter and Testifier of Truth) work together as a single Godhead in total harmony, each fulfilling their roles with exactness. It really is a simple concept that people make more difficult.
Christ's baptism is a perfect example:
Matthew 3:16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:
3:17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
