Atheists obviously don’t have to bother about this type of clash because we've got all the issues sewn up already, but for all you believers, who would win the contest (God or Allah) and why?

were there several things left out?If it is the word of God wouldn't it be "The Gospel according to God"?And wouldn't all writings be included?

Quick name a God/Deity modern or historical that you don't beleive in.... Here's a few if you can't think of one Thor, Zues, Isis, Ra, Vishnu, the God that lives on the top of X mountain, the spirit in X river, the God that resides under that rock.

Ok lets say for hypothetical sake in all history people have beleived in 1,000,000 gods.

The atheist doesn't beleive in 1,000,000 gods

The agnostic isn't sure that there are 1,000,000 gods but if one ever makes their presence known they will beleive.

The monotheist (Islamic, Christian, and Jew etc.) doesn't beleive in 999,999 gods

The Polytheist....well I feel sorry for the person who has to deall with 1,000,000 gods but lets say the polytheists doesn't beleive in 999,998 to 999,970 gods.



Wow look at that....we all have one thing in common we don't beleive in 900,000+ gods.

Ref : Addition to my last question

It is for us to discover that from within we will find our way forward, helped with what the physical can learn along the way to contribute to the well being of the spirit.

LOVE is the key and the only way!

Before Jesus ascended He said "With you I leave my Love and Peace". This is the key that is inside of us, and we need to discover inside of us, to really help us be spiritually aware, and work TOGETHER. Later Mohammad reiterated this message, talking of The Spirit working within us. It is there for all, if only we could turn and see and hear.

Lord, help me in my time of trouble. This girl named Sheila that you know, she goes to my church and she always sits by me and tries to hold my hand and everything. Sometimes tries to kiss me or make me put my hands on her. Please Lord, stop her from telling everyone at church that I am her boyfriend. Please stop her from telling everyone she is pregnant with my baby. Please lord, take the ugly curse off of her face and get rid of them big glasses and that big nose. Lord clear up her acne and take the grease out of her dirty brown hair. I pray, dear God, that you will make her look something like a cheerleader or a porn star. Please lord give her DD sized breasts and a pretty face and I promise that I will be nice to her. Please Lord. I pray in Jesus name, Amen.

I know about meditation but how can you meditate without it having to do with Buddhism or a religion? Just for your own well-being and relaxation.. how can you do meditation other than breathing mediation to achieve that?

I was just wondering if those that believe in god believe god has some sort of soul or perspective. Does he make choices or feel emotions? Does he get angry and sad? Plz don't just put something like he doesn't exist, this is more of a situational question. The situation being there 'is' a god. So wether or not u blieve just put what you would say if he or it did.

I really feel love and compassion in my heart for those who don't have the joy of knowing Jesus Christ as Savior.

It is hard for me to remember what life was like before Jesus, but I remember the confusion and desperation I felt when my life wasn't going the way I wanted.

When I realize that the rock solid foundation my life has now, is something I used to not have, I just want others to feel the freedom and security I havel to live my life to the fullest.

How can I not tell people about something as wonderful as that?

the Jews killed Jezebel and the followers of her religion honoring Baal and many other gods and goddesses because they would not convert to a monotheistic religion. jezebel was the queen of Israel and a very powerful woman who was thrown out of a window and eaten by dogs. the bible explains that it was because she was evil. I maintain she was murdered because she was a woman with power who worshipped male and female deities. She would not submit to Judeism and it's one male god. Her name became synonymous with bad women (did that mean women with decision-making power?) and Mary, mother and wife of god evenually became the dominant figure of a good and compliant woman.

Coes anyone see what I am driving at? Please comment (intelligent, thoughtful answers -PLEASE!)

Revelation 13
1And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.

2And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.

3And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.

4And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?

5And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.

6And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.

7And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.

8And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

9If any man have an ear, let him hear.

10He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.

11And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.

12And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

13And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,

14And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

15And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

16And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

17And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

18Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

With all the discussion of gay marraige and the definition of marriage it made me remember something.

I recall a documentary where this couple in Isreal didn't want to have an orthodox wedding but if they didn't have one their marraige wouldn't be recognized by the state. So they had two weddings one to be recognized by the state and another for them personally. Is this truely the law in Isreal?

It just makes me wonder in all the debate going on here in America. You get a marraige certificate for legal reasons in this country and it has nothing to do with religion. You get married by a pastor, priest, whatever to have you marraige sanctioned by god. If you only have a wedding certificate you marriage isn't in "the eyes of god". If you get married at a church your marraige isn't recognized by the state. I just don't understand if the church and state don't recognize the others "marraige" anyways why does the church care what the state does.

I understanding a good deal about religion, more than some about the occult, a little bit about magical systems (a few of them at best). So what’s up with Satanism? I know this is kind of “jackass-ish” question, but do you get the Heaven if your bad? What do you get out of it???
