When I say respect I do not mean " I agree or admire." I mean 'get along with' without insulting or unwise abusing each other. Like the term "respect for life." and yes we should respect all life on this planet too. Maybe we could do one good thing for someone(or more). I hope you have the kind of day you love- Peace.

Well Idiotd.. so does the bible...“If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, which is as thine own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods . . . thou shalt surely kill him; thine hand shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterwards the hand of all the people . . . If thou shalt hear . . . Certain men . . . have withdrawn the inhabitants of their city, saying, Let us go and serve other gods . . . Thou shalt surely smite the inhabitants ofthat city with the edge of the sword, destroying it utterly, and all that is therein, and the cattle thereof, with the edge of the sword” (Deuteronomy13:6-15).

but maybe you will say the new testament changes that. if the new testament makes the old one obsolete then thats the biggest contradictin in the bible

Based on what I've read and heard, I used to think that Islam was against terrorism and martyrdom, and it was only a few idiot fanatics that gave it a bad name, but recently I've been hearing, and reading about extracts from the Koran that actually adheres to terrorism and war against those who don't believe in Mohammad.

So which is it? Show evidence/ links with your answers please

Did Jesus ever claim to be the Son of God or was it a title that was given to him by His followers, is there mention in the scriptures pertaining to this?

My friend and I have tried this many times and are disgusted by the fact that stupid, irrelevant things such as "pink" and "Chuck Norris" are culturally graced with the Yahoo search line (a purple dotted line immediately appearing under the word along with an easy search button), though Jesus and anything to do with God are not. Even Satan gets this search line! I and several of my friends feel that this is culturally biased and, indeed, unhealthy for our generation.

I had a religious vision. It came to me that all Hummer owners will go to Hell, because of egotism and glutonny. I don't know who else is going to Hell, but this vision came to me with absolute certainty and clarity.

Forgive me for being a christian and not knowing what this "accepting Jesus" procedure is. I am Catholic. What I don't understand is why other christians think that anyone who doesn't "accept" him will go to hell? Jesus never said that. The only thing he wanted us to do on earth was to love, and have faith in him and the father. There's so many rules in organized religion and every one believes they are right, but I tend to think we lose our focus on what the bible is actually teaching us.

On one hand you have an archeologist, digging out dinosaur skeletons and finding our ancestral records... with proofs to display AND on other hand, there is a book with stories that involve magic and fancy stuff that is really hard to believe.

Then, What is the debate about? faith? Can't we all have faith and morality and have a logical scientific approach at the same time?

I believe its because the MAJORITY do not try and blend in. Todays Muslims are plagued by their parents unwillingness to be British. Their image is tarnished because of it.

The west perceives Islam as insular and restrictive and conflicting with western philosophy.

I personnaly can not abide talking to anyone who covers their faces. It is completely ignorant. A major Part of communication and meaning is in facial expression.
When they hide their faces the west percieves that they are trying to conceal something nasty. And also you can not be sure who your are communicating with. The western attitude it to treat them with contempt.

Because muslims are so insular, and because the religion is so tight, even if muslims do not agree with the recent terrorism, they will all be persecuted because of the wall their community has built.

I firmly believe that islam as a principal is detrimental to western society. It is every muslims duty to inflict islam on every one else. And I detest it.

While answering, I'd like to indicate your personal God-belief (if you will), because it's my guess that those who believe in a personal God will say 'yes, there will still be those who deny God' while those who don't believe or are unsure will say 'in such a situation, all would follow God'.

It just seems to me indicative of the gap in perception of _why_ non-believers don't believe.

And for the sake of argument, let's say that 'undeniably clear' means speaking _publicly_, not in certain people's heads but out loud where all can hear, saying 'this book is My word and that book is a blasphemy; this rule is to be kept and this rule is not to be kept, etc, etc.' By 'undeniably clear' I mean that, so please don't answer that 'God's existence and rules are already clear, so those with eyes to see, let them see'.

I have answered questions about religion and God yet people cannot seem to accept the fact that God made rule for us to follow. When you break the rules intentionally, you will get punished for it. Do you really think God will change his laws just so you can fit on the description on who he will save?
