Isn't using the idea of faith cheating to try and win a debate.


Try changing this for a court case when someone faces the death penalty, by stoning or disembwoling... and say its your daughter on trial...

Now would accept the prosecution using faith based decisions ie a priest saying god spoke to him and declared her guilty... Or woul you demand proof?

Athiest dont believe they seek proof and my go with the solution that has the most evidence but chage when more evidence comes in...

faith is say so...


thuis cheating surely if the other side is operationg on proof and evidence,

Just in my own experience, I have talked to Chrisitans who believe some things that others don't... I am LDS and we are all taught the exact same..
I am not trying to bash anyone, I am just wondering the reasoning for some believe this and some believe that...

Hello!

I am researching Mormonism, and I have 6 questions....Looking for members of the LDS church.

I am not trying to attack anyone, I am trying to be as objective as possible, and a book of Mormon is in the mail. However, I am a christian.

It won't let me post all the questions with the references here(too long)...So I posted them online at www.allaboutjoshua.com or http://joshuafkon.googlepages.com/questions

Thank you very much for your help,

God bless,

Josh

P.S. I'm posting this question again because no one answered my questions before.

What did you say to them? What about their religion makes them have to go door to door?

It seems like a broad range of people use the label Agnostic for themselves. Some are 90+% Believers with a little bit of doubt, and some are 90+% Atheists who accept there might be some abiguous higher power of some sort beyond our perception. Is it right that so many with such a wide chasm in their beliefs can huddle under the same umbrella?

Recent research has revealed that the present numbers (1234567890) are based on Hindu numbers. The zero (0) has been discovered to have been used by the Hindus before any other civilisation. Islam as usual has stolen this and claims to have invented it. See this webpage for details.

When I ask god to cure my illness he may say no, why is it he always answers no to prayers that ask him to manifest himself?

Isaiah 52 vs 13-53 vs 12 proves on Jesus could be the one marred more than any man, and die as a sacrificial lamb and make atonement for our souls" why cause the temple is gone and otherwise God and Isaiah and Jesus would all be liars -we had to have a blood sacrifice for our sins- Moses "The life of the flesh is in the blood and ive given it to make atonement for your souls." Leviticus 17 vs 11
please if you lie and say your Jewish and reject Moses and dont have a blood atonement dont try and say your Jewish not by Moses your not not by the God of moses either Jewish means a praiser of God-if you didnt hear from God since Isaiah 700 bce and u dont got a blood atonement your god died and lied too
pray my Jewish people would see the truth and the light its vital hell is forever in anguish as Daniel our Jewish prophet said chapter 12 vs 2 its aborance away from God everlasting -he also talked about heaven in that verse too everlasting life in heaven

I was drawn into worship today by the sweet shining face of Jesus..He began to fill my heart and soul with adoring words of love and worship for Him...and He filled up my tummy with a huge smile...it was His smile..and I began to smile in such a supernatural way... this overwhelming happiness was beaming from inside me..I rode by miniature little lambs and goats...they were just like in Israel...they seemed in my joy to be little persons who needed love...I felt Heaven smile at them thru my heart and I said out the window to them " Hiiiiii you guys !!! ". They were like little munchkin creatures on Oz....I felt this sweet laughter just consume me as the face of Jesus shone on me...His Presence all around me..... as I walked in my house I felt that joy of Jesus carrying me thru the realms of Heaven inside me... Have you guys ever felt that ?

If you are of a religion (muslim) that fully endorses the killing of any other relgions other than yours (as stated in koran) whats wrong with wanting to kill them back?I think its kinda hard to be half muslim, wouldn't allah be angry if you left out the part that says to kill the infidels.

The science of mathematics has proven George Washington didn't exist. For you simple minded one's who BLINDLY believe he was a real person..let me explain. Scientific FACT: There are over 25,000 homes, hotels, Inns, Bed & breakfasts that CLAIM George Washington slept here...let's go to the SCIENCE of math.
365 days a year x 50 years would be=18,250.
Thus is would be impossible for him to be in so many places at once. Look...George Washington was invented for the weak and stupid populace who needed a HERO to believe in..he wasn't a REAL person. Some claim some old writings...THEY WERE CHANGED by the same people who have tried to fool us. He was a MYTH..so quit believing in him or I will be forced to throw mud and dedicate my life proving he didn't EXIST. I can think for MYSELF I don't need Washington followers cramming down their fairy tale belief down my throat..STOP it!!!! Leaven me ALONE...I don't want to Hear YOUR BELIEFS..HE didn't EXIST, I AM NOT ANGRY...I AM NOT REBELLING!!!
