i mean where do they think they came from i was just on here and someone said the bible is a book of mythology. if so than why do billions live their life by it. it is a guide to how to live your live peacefully and happily it allows you to follow gods word. Why do you think your blessed with the things you have? god beleived that you deserved them but by becoming an atheist you will eventually have to repay him for everything he has given you that you have taken ungratefully. i mean i understand im not the best person in the world either but i try to live my life according the laws and guidelines god has set for us.

I like to run around in a white robe and sandals, drown innocent humans and animals, blow up stars, smite infidels, inflict My wrath upon non-believers, throw rocks at dinosaurs, chuck lighting bolts, turn women into pillars of salt and impregnate Virgins.

...But that's just me.

If the bible is clearly against relations between brothers and sisters, mothers and sons, and fathers and daughters, how did we all come from just 2 people? And if any of these relations did happen, why are they not allowd by the christian church today?

Would your attitudes toward Christians be changed if all Christians that you knew were non-judgmental, and treated everyone equally, with kindness and respect, even if they didn't share your opinion, and they didn't try to "shove their belief down your throat". Everyone still has the right to share their opinions, Christians included, but everyone would respect the opinions of others.

This is not a challenge to any religous people. This is just a solicitation for open-mind discussion.

God created Adam out of his own image, right ? So god has a reproductive organ on himself ? Why does he need one ? I thought there is only one god. There is no used for that.

God created Adam, then Eve. The reason God create Eve because Adam is lonely, right ?
So all Adam need is just a companion. Why did God make Eve with a reproductive organ that can mate with Adam ? Why create a sexual opportunity to begin with ? With knowledge of "Sex" differences, that is Sin.

So because God created Eve with the physical differences and compatibilty to Adam, he created the foundation of the possiblity of "Sin". Though at that time, God did not let Adam and Eve aware of such difference. Why would you set it up so that it can even has a remote chance of having Sin ?

Ok, so that's God's setup, then why did God create the forbidden fruit ?

If Jesus is supposed to be both "God" and "Man." How is that possible? To error is to be human, and an error could be a sin. Therefore, did jesus be like us completely and sin? If he didn't, then he didn't know guilt and thus could not feel the whole range of emotions.

For everyone!

When the rains comes and the storms rage what is your core belief that all else rest upon. The one thing that could never be shaken no matter what you make your stand on this.

For some it might be your family, God, Jesus,
the Bible, Religion, Yourself etc.

What's your rock?

Okay, I like awarding points for my questions, and I wish I could give some of my own points for those times when I get two or three good answers.

Tell me something nice you did for someone this week. Nothing earth shattering, but I want to give you some credit.

First of all, be proud of what you did, especially if you did something nice that helped that person out.

I'll give a thumbs up to anyone who did something nice. Thumbs down for any nasty post.

The most unique thing that really was a nice thing to do, I'm gonna give you 10 points.

Don't forget to smile, because it makes people wonder what you are up to!!

Why take chance in not believing in God, What if he is real, the price that we have to pay is too much and there is no going back. And if you believe in God and if he doesn’t exist, there is nothing to loose.

Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, The late Supreme Leader of Iran, the Shia Grand Ayatollah, 1979-89 said in his book Tahrirolvasileh:

"A man can marry a girl under 9 years and can quench his sexual lusts with a child as young as a baby. However, he should not penetrate. Sodomizing the baby is halal (allowed by sharia). If the man penetrates and damages the child, then he should be responsible for her subsistence all her life. This girl, however, does not count as one of his four permanent wives. The man will not be eligible to marry the girl’s sister. It is better for a girl to marry when her menstruation starts, and at her husband's house rather than her father's home. Any father marrying his daughter so young will have a permanent place in heaven.

I guess muslims will try to justify this or say that this is not true . If in any doubt and can read Farsi ( Persian ) just refer to the original fatwa in:

I'm trying to make sense of a theological problem (I'm not a Christian). Acording to Christianity, is asking Jesus to die on a cross the only way God could have washed away our sins. If you say yes, then you admit that God is not all powerful. If you say no, then he made his son die for nothing. Can somone help me here?
