If someone commits suicide, do you believe they are going to Hell? What if that person is mentally ill? What if they ask for forgivness before they do it? No I am not thinking of doing it, just a question I've always wounder about. I love my life.

"People will believe anything but the bible"

Just suppose that the Dead Sea Scrolls proved that the Bible was nothing more than a collection of ancient stories. How would this affect you? Would you still have faith in God? Still believe in Jesus' teachings?

There was a Prison in Michigan I used to minister at and during a one-on-one conversation with a Muslim who produced some kind of Islamic holy book. He showed me the script and I read it for myself. That was a Muslim Prisoner who showed me that and, made that claim. I just didn't make it up. So if you want to know where I got my information there it is. I'm just asking the question...I didn't say that I believed it!

Why do people insist on naming their sons Adam? Don't they realize that Adam doomed all mankind. Most religions teach of the original sin in the garden of Eden. A person might as well name their child Judas or even Lucifer or even Satan. Naming a son Adam is pretty much the same thing. Why don't people realize this? Why are people naming their sons Adam? And it isn't that those who do name their sons Adam, don't believe in Adam&Eve. Plently of them do! Give me a little insight here.

if they did they would have to give up so many things that they enjoy? They couldn't have sex if they weren't married, get drunk, they'd have to treat people with respect. I think a lot of it is a matter of people just wanting to live their lives the way they want to live them without consequences so they feel if they don't believe in God they aren't doing anything wrong.

since:
-bible 25% of the bible is already fulfilled prophecy
-other religions say you get there by good works but no one is good enough they need grace from Jesus
-archaeology confirms the bible
-creation tells us there is a Creator just like a watch tells us there is a watchmaker, you wouldnt think a computer evolved if you found it in the forest you would know someone designed it
-there is power in Him and not only word!

Luke 6:
"Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven; give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you."

Me, I want to overcome fornication. I feel awful emtionally, and find myself ENVIOUS of anyone who saved themselves for marriage and who do it the "clean" way. But I find it tough, but I cannot give up. If I were to die tonight, I'd be in Hades/hell for that reason alone, instead of beautiful heaven.

Also, looking at men as my master. I was never the type to want to be submissive; I ALWAYS wanted to be treated as an equal partner. I especially cannot be submissive to a man knowing that there are men who'll take advantage and beat on a woman, as it happened to me before.

Tell me what you think... I think TV is what makes us look bad and Islam in general people make everything seem so bad when its completely the opposite of what everyone THINKS and WANTS TO BELIEVE!

Why are people so judgemental about Muslims? We didn't do anything so why are we being seen as bad people? Just because other people are bad?.... Why should you judge and be so cruel when white, black, asian, and whatever do bad s-h-i-t all the time!!! But do you see them being treated bad EVERYWHERE YOU GO?...

Ok, I go to a Catholic school and all through last yr I had a Bible study course where we basically just looked at the Bible in depth and stuff..a lot of it was rly eye opening & I really enjoyed the class....but this is something I've always always wondered, and plz don't get mad at me but.....obviously I missed something during that class...

How do we know that the Bible is real? How do we know that ppl didn't just write it and its filled with a bunch of like stories written by wise people? I probably sound really stupid asking this but just how do we know its actually important? How is different from other literature from way back in time (like Beowulf) or mythology?

*Every time I ask a question regarding religion, ppl get all mean and make me feel really stupid. Please don't do it, I mean seriously I'm asking this question because I don't know, not to be ridiculed! THANKSSSS!*

After stumbling upon www.godhatesglobes.com one day, I thought it was a parody. The webmaster seemed so very intent on "proving" that the earth is flat that I figured, in the year 2006 AD, no one could seriously believe that planet Earth is flat.

I guess I was wrong.

How can someone truly say that the Earth is flat (which the bible clearly implies, read the latest post on the site for biblical verses) when there is an abundance of evidence to the contrary? How can someone believe that even though thousands of people take flights around the world every day, we haven't lost one plane "over the edge" or had one single person leak the "truth"? How do you explain satellites and pictures of the earth from the moon? How about how ships disappearing over the horizon? GPS? Gravity?

I think most everyone agrees that the earth is round. Is this just another contradiction or can someone clear this up for me without preaching?

' son we muslims usually believe rubbish'

its 25 years since my mother passed away and her words always echo in my mind.

Jesus said that if you make someone stumble or be decieved it were better if you were never born. Teachers will be judged with much more strictness. So dont teach if you dont know, read the bible! Do you understand that you cant just teach what you feel but what is real from God and not some philosophy that you learned from Hollywood?
