Matthew 15:22-28 - http://www.newadvent.org/bible/mat015.htm

there are noteworthy points:

1) lack of mercy and love charged against Jesus (if the incident is reportedly correctly)
2) Degraded discrimination in regard to the uplifting of his tribe and not for the other (but that is the way of Christians against every other releigion)

3) Tribal pride of descendance and prejudice aainst others and calling them dogs.

4) An ignorant polytheist woman debated with and wom him over

No makeup, women wear only dresses (all the time), and women must have long hair.

Was it different before Abraham (who you will remeber met a monotheistic priest and tithed to him from his wealth).

Was it different after Jesus?

Do we just understand God better?

“(Moses said): ‘Each man strap a sword to his side. Go back and forth through the camp from one end to the other, each killing his brother and friend and neighbour’. The Levites did as Moses commanded, and that day about three thousand of the people died.” (Exodus 32:27-28, NIV)

It is also a well-known fact that the total number of deaths that took place in ALL the wars fought during the time of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was 1018. The biblical quotation given above and many such quotations appear to escape the grasp of those who allege against Muhammad (pbuh), further ignoring the words of Jesus:

“Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgement ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.”
(Matthew 7:1-2 KJV)

I know what I believe, and if you ask, I'll tell you, but if you don't, I don't find the desire to shout it at you anyways. Everyone is different and that's what makes the world interesting. Why do so many people think that their way is best, other ways are bad, and if you oppose their views, they get sooo mad???

Why is it that all the questions about religion are always from the point of view that if you believe, then you are an idiot?
Remember, being an atheist is a choice. You choose to deny the possibility of a higher power. Given this thought, I would think that the more open minded person would be the one that accepts the possibility of a God.
We all see the questions that are really insults. Yet those that pose the insults take the position that they are morally superior. I think that the morally superior person is the one that will discuss, politely, the subject, without condemnation or insults.
People are free to believe as they choose. Why call others "haters" and other such nonsense when those that you despise do not say such things about you? Thereby proving the premise of your question to be wholly inaccurate.

Whenever I see atheists post anything on the internet they just always seem so angsty. They can deny whatever they want but I think they are missing the point of religions. If they are right, why are they so miserable? Religions are more than just about God or "gods", they also give you a certain peace of mind. Whatever the religion is, they help bring a peace of mind and inner happiness. That's what I think is missing from them and why they are always so damn distraught.

I have seen the phrase "Blessed Be".
Can you explain this to me, what it means and how it came to be?
Thanks!

I've noticed people will ask legitimate questions about religion[sincere questions] and all they get is a bunch of mumbu jumbo about anything except a straight answer!!!

What do you think of Christians? Do you like, respect, hate, appreciate them? What do you think will happen when you die? Do you care about people that you don't like?

Just wondering. I don't know what it's like.

I know the major religions (Catholics, Anglicans, Christian Orthodox, Jews, Budhists, Muslims) don't dispute evolution. Are Evangelicals the only ones?
