2 out of 10 christian / catholic preachers have mollested a minor ( especially young boys)

Mormons which follow from the bible support making a 10 yr old girl marry and old man. ( Rape, Child abuse )

Man farm people in America have incest relations ( Most claim they are Christian)

Is Christinianity just another front for child abuse and rape?

I would refer to myself as a "floundering agnostic". Possibly a "fence sitter" and the fence post is jabbing me...so it's time to get off.....the fence that is....LOL!

I realize that atheists do not believe in god...however, do you believe in anything supernatural? Spirits, ghosts, the force, ESP, astrology, whatever? and if not...why not?

I'm not wording this correctly. Sorry. I'm hoping that your answers will help me wrap my mind around some concepts that are perplexing me.

Are they THAT afraid?

Do they really believe that giving their hard-earned money to this man's ministry gives them a free ticket to heaven, while Hinn flies in his private jet and lives a life of pure luxury off of their donations and entrance-fees to his 'rallies'?


Jesus was a simple man and cared nothing about earthly wealth.
Is Hinn ANYTHING like Jesus was?

This is the biggest scam I've ever seen, and I feel SO SORRY for those people who have fallen into his grip!

Can't they see they're dealing with a false prophet who has been predicting things that have never come to be true?

It's just so far beyond sad.

Many people say they dream in color,not black and white, but I was told long ago that's not true. I was also told that if you dream in color then it's a vision given to you, what do you think?

The militant black muslim movement in America was started by Islamists long ago and was successful in turning racial tension into hatred and violence.

Despite the fact that Muslims are histories greatest slavers, they successful convinced the disinfranchised african american that they should take venegence upon the "evil" western culture. They even convinced many afro-americans to exchange their "slave names" for even greater slave names like "Muhammad Ali" (Prophet Muhammad, himself own many many black slaves).

What an amazing and outrageous fraud, like nazis convincing jews to wearing swazitikas! Islam is the greatest slave trading instiution of all human history. There is no close second, not the portugese, not anyone. Muslims supplied the Atlantic and Sub-Saharan slave trade routes.

I detest Islamists, but I must give arab muslims credit where it is due. How did they pull this fraud off?

Imperfection cannot come from perfection.

The ultimate source of imperfection is God. What is perfect cannot make itself imperfect, so humans(for one example) must have been created imperfect. What is perfect cannot create anything imperfect, so God must be imperfect to have created these imperfect humans. A perfect God who creates imperfect humans is impossible.

(Maybe she knew something we don't)
Go out to the parking lot.
And you get in your car and drive real far.
And you drive all night and then you see a light.
And it comes right down and it lands on the ground.
And out comes the man from Mars.
And you try to run but he's got a gun.
And he shoots you dead and he eats your head.
And then you're in the man from Mars.
...................

Yeah, wall to wall.
Door to door.
Hall to hall.
He's gonna eat 'em all.
Rapture.
Be pure.
Take a tour through the sewer.
Don't strain your brain.
Paint a train.
You'll be singing in the rain.
Said don't stop to the punk rock.
Well now you see what you wanna be.
Just have your party on T.V.

1st the man was literal, means he can't even read or write.

2nd God words collected in a book called Quran, Muhammad words collected in a book called Hadith, if you compare the Quran with Hadith you will see alot of differences.

3rd anyone read the Quran in its original language, will know that this language is not from human. deep strong words hits you straight in the heart.

Here is a clue:

The cutting-edge surgeon Al-Zahrawi, known in the west as Abulcasis, introduced more than 200 surgical tools in his medical encyclopaedia. He included illustrations and detailed information on how and when each instrument was to be used.

Did you know that nearly every medical book by Muslims a thousand years ago covered most aspect of eye diseases?

Muslim ophthalmologists of the 10th to 13th centuries were performing operations, dissecting, discovering, and writing about their findings in textbooks and monographs.

See the many different medical journals written 1000 years ago that still exist today.

Muslim medics wrote voluminous handbooks, many of which were translated into Latin. One of these was the ‘Canon’ by Ibn Sina, which remained a primary reference for centuries.

How can Christians claim to belong to a monotheistic religion when they worship about a cazillion different saints who are experts in solving different problems? How is it monotheistic when God is three but also one? Even in polytheistic religions there is the supreme deity and the sub deities. Does the Christian religion really differ from all the other polytheistic religions?

According to the "burning bush" that was shown to me by the "higher power". The Christian Armageddon is near! Do you think Bob, Bill, and my beloved Clancy would forgive me if I went on one last drunk? Just one before Jesus comes and takes me to the big AA meeting in the sky? Oh Jesus, save me! Take me home! Take me home NOW!

I understand that the Greek Septuagint Bible was in use during the time of Jesus and the apostles, and that it contained books that are not part of the accepted Hebrew canon and Protestant Bibles today. Does anyone know if these books were used by the apostles and early Christians? Also, how many there were and their names?

They say jesus is great and good, and that people should follow him and do as he says. They even say that he is god. They tell how he loved everyone, turned the other cheek, did so much for people, etc. Yet, I read comments from christians and wonder how they can live with their answers. Can someone explain to me how they can pick and choose what to believe and follow?

I think those that worship a deity are not more or less represented in the mental illess of those among us. My thinking is contrary, and I think that all people suffer from lonelyness, no matter if they hold to a deity or not to their person. I may be held reprehencible for my thoughts, but no matter. Sometimes; I think of my mother and her, what seems to me irrational beliefs. She may be timid;however she has shown tremendous courage all throughout her life.

God is omniscient. When he created the universe, he saw the sufferings which humans would endure as a result of the sin of those original humans. He heard the screams of the damned. Surely he would have known that it would have been better for those humans to never have been born (in fact, the Bible says this very thing), and surely this all-compassionate deity would have foregone the creation of a universe destined to imperfection in which many of the humans were doomed to eternal suffering. A perfectly compassionate being who creates beings which he knows are doomed to suffer is impossible.
