People are going to Hell by the second and self-proclaimed Christians are screaming "tolerate!" Are we in a spiritual war, or a spiritual buffet? Pick what you like - it's all good, right? It is more like pick your poison. If you have real compassion for others you would not keep telling them that it is alright to eat poison would you? Wake up Christians, the war isn't over yet!

2 Timothy 2:4 - No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.

2 Corinthians 10:3 - For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh:
4 (For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds;) 5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;

Does this imply there was more than one god involved in the creation of Man?

Or that God asked the heaven and earth and all the animals to join with Him to help create man?

What does this mean? I know Muslims only pray five times a day. So does this mean they cannot pray any other times of day? What if they have been kidnapped, and need help - can they pray then, or do they have to wait untill they can pray? And what happens if they sleep or miss a prayer?

Why did Jezus have 2 tell u through John in Revelations that Judgement day would come? Why did he have to tell u that The World would be undone? Why did he leave the BOOK of Life unfilled with the truth about our mother-Earth! I do not know of a far greater show-which rides in this universe upon times journey of light-twas easy to call so many things true-especially for men that lived and were in awe by flight-Angels had wings and these men couldn't soar so they dreamed of gods that could make them more-and in doing so they placed hope faith and love-into a place out of this world-in 1 they dreamed for above-with golden roads and castles and 1 being upon a thrown-for to all that beliveth in him was mercy shown-and 2 these ends they would work hard each and every day-knowing that forgiveness would be a better way-but then it happened and they were quite caught off guard-they began to C the violence of a Mother that they did discard-4 she was 2nd TO THEIR GOD-only now her heart now melts

Wasn't Jesus God's only begotten Son?

And why does it say they took Earth women as wives? Were they extraterrestrials?

Some people may believe we are nothing more than this physical or biologocal body.Well I want them and others to read this completely and share their views.
Normal people(wether religious or not,believer in god or not) become happy after they do a good act, even if their action can't be justified by materialistic laws , for example sacrifising one's self for another person, or to give your kidney to someone else for free.
And they will get sad in their hearts when they do something evil , even if they make a good money(that their actions are justifyable by materialistic laws) ofcourse I am talking about 'normal' people whose heart hasn't changed dramatically.
So if we read between the lines it proves there is something more than this physical world it proves reward and consequence for our actions. >>
this is a feeling so deep in our heart(deeper than one can say because they were taught it in the school when they were child), it is deep there.
Just like we love and want the beauty , we love good acts( even if they dont make sense with materialistic laws).
you know, when something is in our heart there is a response outside, if there is the hunger inside ,there is food outside. if there is the need of love inside ,there is marriage and love outside.For every natural need or tendency or feeling that we have inside our hearts ,there is a response a satisfaction outside. the response to this feeling is that there is more than
this world, there is reward and consequenses.
Things make sense.
If we admire sombody when he get killed, trying to rescue somebody else which doesnt make sense by the physical laws,it means our hearts knows that there is more than this physical world.even if some people has become unbelievers and consciously deny it while their hearts unconsciously act in according to spritual laws.
and yes when god created us he put this in our heart.
Note that I dont say non-belivers dont do good acts,some of them do,beacause the truth is in their hearts but they consciously deny it.and sometimes they act in according to spritual laws without paying attention to it.
peace to you all
a muslim friend.

I'm not closed minded. I'm very open and willing to accept new "ideas". I love "ideas". "ideas" are what make us human.

I've always thought that religion was based upon faith. You know "visualizing" what it is you want to be. Using a reference point to focus your desires upon. To "live" for something. To have a unified passion.... What some would call an idol, or a god, or a deity.

If we really did evolve, than our minds are definitely still primitive. Is that true? We now live in a cultured world. Our minds are very malleable. Fear and joy of the "bicameral" mind. The people who "wrote" the bible knew this. Anybody who creates a cult today knows this. Every business man, every con man, every friend, and enemy you've ever had know this. Heck, even babies stop crying when they hear another babe cry.

The reason I must ask you to "respect" the church instead of trying to tear it down, is because of what the church stands for.

If you follow my reasoning what is there to respect

Agnostic here, not wanting to convert anyone, I'm probably not going to read anyone who tells me I need Jesus in my heart anymore but heh, feel free, first amendment and all.

I'm talking about relationships between real people.
