Eg a child growing up in a Muslim or Buddhist country has virtually no chance of becoming a christian, he/she is taught from day one to follow the prevailing belief system. He/she will grow up GENUINELY believing that their belief is correct. Would it be fair for God to send them to hell when all they were doing was following what they believe. Many Christians will say that everyone has a choice, but is this REALLY the case?

The Name Jesus is used at least 611 times in the 4 Gospels with Christ a mere 49, with the odds at 12 to 1, and, Presto! 13.

Why not Jesusians?

Christians chant Jesus, not Christ, & Christ is used to express disgust or as a swear word, while Jesus, surprise or disbelief.

Why Jesus for the Son of Jehovah Jah when there is no Sus in Jah or Jehovah but Zeus is evident in the name that was written for one accused of saying he was a King and the Son of God?

Why did Pilate, who worshipped Zeus, write Jesus King of the Jews and not Jehovah or Immanuel or Eli or Jah, and why is Sus pronounced Zoss and not Zeus when it is taken from the Greek and when it was written in Greek and Latin and Hebrew?

If Jupiter is Latin for Zeus and Jesus is not a Hebrew name, then, is Jesus Latin, Greek and Hebrew with Je for Jah and Jupiter and Sus for Zeus, or did King James try to claim the credit for what Pilate created or to hide the fact that Christians worship the Sun God Zeus on Sundays?

A previous post has got me thinking: if the being referred to as God is omniscient and sees us all, and all our good deeds and bad etc: he must have multiple minds.

If there's 6 billion + people on the planet, God would need 6 billion different trains of thought to concentrate and make mental notes etc.

Is this the way you see it, or is he more like a super super computer that processes multiple tasks simultaneously?

The bible clearly states women cannot teach men, also that women are not even permitted to talk in church but must wait and go home and ask of there husbands, it sounds rough, i would say strict, the bible seems to refer to the women slightly below the man so the invite is in heaven women will be above the man, does'nt that make life here on earth worthy preparation. Only in church before God is it so strict, one day a week.

Do God god live his time mostly in place of worships or muddy and dirty places? It seems that god is busy most of the time with muddy and bad odoured things to create life and food for their survival. Does he have as much time as to devote to listen prayers in millions of places of worships? Is it desirable for God to attend places of worship rather than doing needful in dirty and bad odoured things for keeping man alive?

what purpose does it serve us by going back to the 7th century desert tribal customs?

are not given the same respect and rights as your own?Did Jesus teach intolerance of others?

I don't think so.But a few people who have answered my other questions seem to think so.The accuse me of not being Christian because I stand up for the rights of others.They point fingers.They judge.They confuse me.

I am a Christian.But I want people to be who they are religiously, spiritually, and/or any other way you can think of and be able to do so freely.I don't want religion dictating politics.I don't want religions forced or crammed into people.I don't want religion to teach or endorse hate.

For all of this, they point fingers and judge me.Why is that?
