If i say that American generals have asked their soldierd to kill any veitnemese they encounter it would sound absured to you wouldn't it...? but they did...every general worth his salt would boost the moral of their soldiers by saying such stuff....and so did God through His book....If he had asked Muhammed (pbuh) to say it...people would have only condemed him....but if God himself asks his people to kill any enemy (ASKED TO DO THAT DURING TIMES OF WAR) people have to accept wouldn't they....and always God says in every verse to show ristraint but if forced to kill any enemy....so how can it mean Islam is a bloody religion....self preservation is essential...but certain christians...seem blind to the verses that ask muslims to feed the poor , that ask muslims to show and accept no cast or creed...the list is endless....they only seem to see the bloody parts...why...? are they scared of Islam...or is it simply that they have been brain washed to hate Islam...?

God says in the bible that you know if a prophet is fake if what he says doesnt happen. EVERYTHING that the Prophet Muhammad said would happen did happen.

eg.
He told a companion that he would go blind before he died
He told a companion the land that he would die
He said exactly how many years of the Caliphate there would be after him, and that Abu Bakr would rule for a short time. (he ruled for 2 years)

There are several other examples. would a fake prophet dare make so many predictions? this is not mention those in the qur'an (if you believe he wrote it)

eg. (qur'an)
"The Romans have been defeated, In the nearer land, and they, after their defeat will be victorious, Within a few years. With Allah is the Decision, in the past and in the Future: on that Day shall the Believers rejoice"
(this is exactly what happened. Ask someone who has studied ancient history how remarkable this prediction is. it is like if someone said in 1945 that the nazis would be victorious)

if god was so powerful, why didnt he just kill all wicked people like how he killed the man with the "eat drink and be merry" tag, or how he killed the innocent firstborn sons of exodus, or have noah's family kill all other people since it was so legal during the old testament times as we can see all over the bible.

This is only to Christians, Please.
If you are all going to heaven when you die, then how do you explain that the meek will inherit the earth? Explain Eccl.9:5---The dead know nothing. Explain Judgement day. Did God promise Adam a gateway into heaven, if he disobeyed or death? Wasn't it God's plan for mankind to live for ever on the earth, and isn't God the same God as in Adam's day? His ways do not change.
Just curious. THANXS

When we are read to in Sunday school and in church, often what we hear are the passages of the Old Testament that can be explained away; they were sinners, they were not believers, God sought judgement on them. But what about passages like this?

2 Kings 2:23-24: "And he [Elisha] went up from thence unto Bethel: and as he was going up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him, Go up, thou bald head; go up, thou bald head. And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the LORD. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them."

How do you view the passages like this that litter the Old Testament?

What makes me ask this question is that last night I watched a movie "Left Behind" part I and II. To be honest, I am not a person who fears anything, but this movie scared me...

It is a movie about the bible predictions in the bible just before THE RAPTURE and AFTER THE RAPTURE...Please I encourage anyone reading this to look for this movie and watch it...even atheists, I am begging you get this movie.

Can anyone merge the PROPHECIES/PREDICTIONS in the BIBLE with current events in our years?

We believe in Christ as the Son of God, Born of a virgin, conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit, was crucified and rose again. We are to strive to live our lives accordingly.

If you believe that there's a better existence after this one...& please don't say fear of the unknown because from what I've viewed here folks seem to have very strong opinions about an afterlife.
This isn't meant to be offensive.

when asked a question they just spill out the same verses, and refuse to use their reason. isnt this a sign of being brainwashed?

I just finished watching "Water" an Indian movie about the oppression widows in their society must face. Religious beliefs keep these women (34 million as of 2001) alienated from society, suffering poverty many of which resort to prostitution to survive.

These women are by afflicted by a stigma & religious belief system that keeps them from remarrying. It takes brave individuals to stand up to dysfunctional religious beliefs, even if some "holy" text prescribes such modes of living.

This begs the question, what other things do we believe because a book, cultural, & or tradition tells us so? I once followed more so religious texts than my conscience. My conscience began to pang, so hard that I literally felt like I was drowning. Thank God I listened to the wisdom that was in my heart then perpetuating suffering via legalism.

I encourage all others to do the same by bravely speaking out against any idea, regardless of its source, which causes more suffering than alleviation.
