Religion & Spirituality - 6 September 2006

If Jesus hadn't been scrogged it is unlikely anyone would have claimed him devine. This minor Galilean exorcist would have returned home to carpentering, & raising his brood. JC’s Religion was Judaism. He never claimed to be God’s son. The divinity of JC, and alleged resurrection was invented by shysters like Paul to create a Jewish mystery cult like the popular mystery cult of Dionysus. Mark is the oldest Gospel. Mathew and Luke were written from Mark and the Quella.. The original Mark manuscripts ended at 16.8 with no resurrection just an empty tomb (dogs?). By reading the Quella it is obvious that JC had nothing profound to say. His spiel is confusing and bizarre. If it wasn’t for the self ordained Christian PR machine JC would have been quickly forgotten. So 30 coins created Christianity. A disaster for the Jews that lead to pogroms and holocausts and a disaster for humanity with Christian holy wars, colonial genocides, racism and mass ignorance. I reckon it was a Ripp Off

If God is loving and by any means fair minded, then I should be judged on the things that I do intentionally. Such as bad acts that I've commited or even bad acts that I've allowed to happen. There's a list of things that many believers say are the cause of why God would punish you, but the one thing that they say God could never forgive you for, is not believing he exists. Belief is in the heart and is by no means a matter of choice. I don't go on not believing in God because I have a personal vindetta with him. I don't believe in him because I understand the fact that if we had 100% proof that he didn't exist, that people would still believe in him regardless of the evidence. I can't ignore my thoughts, nor could I ignore my true beliefs. If I spent every day in a church singing my hymns and praising God, I know that I still would not believe he existed. Belief is not a choice and I refuse to believe an all knowing/loving God would damn me over something I have no control over.

I was wondering whether the Islam teaches about Heaven, and how you would get there, or what their version of the afterlife is. Please note- answers without due respect for others will be reported. Not looking for anger or to upset, honest answers only please.
Thanks in advance.

I know Jews and Muslims do not believe in a Trinity. They Also believe Jesus Christ is not God nor son of God. What's your opinion?

Getting past the fact that it's been admitted that she wasn't a prostitute... Does anyone think Jesus and Mary Magdalene were romantically involved in any way? I wouldn't go so far as to say I agree with the DaVinci Code... but has anyone read the Gospel of Mary Magdalene and seem to think that she and Jesus were just a tad bit close?

Ok, here is my question: I have heard that Satan uses religion and church to drive people away from God + Jesus. I mean religions like Budhism, Islam, etc. If this is true how can you be sure that any Christian religous sect is real? Further more why would God let satan rule earth and try to drive us away from him? It is human nature to be skeptical and to do "bad" things. If you do not believe anything about religion then I DO NOT want your answers. I am looking for answers from Christians only. Thank you.

The word christian means "one who follows christ" right? The word muslim means "one who submits to god" right? Since christians submit to god and follow Jesus, and since muslims subit to god and follow Jesus, why can't you both just be classified as the same religion, or two different sects of the same religion with some scriptural differences?

What do you think of my proposal?

It would seem that our technology is way beyond anything else living on this planet and I doubt any other creature on this planet will ever evolve to our level of understanding. Is it possible that we are just one big experimental colony of another race, or more specifically alien?

Church of Christ based in the Philippines claims that they are the church named in the bible as the church coming from the East. This church claims that they are the only ones that will be saved leaving out everyone else. They claim that to be saved you have to give your soul to the Church of Christ and renounce all material things, yet they are one of the richest churches in the world.

Neanderthal man? If Adam & Eve were created on the 7th day, and we've only been around for 6,000 years, Neanderthal man was around 150,000 -28,000 years ago, then he must have been created on the first day. So what, was God just playin' around the first 6 days?

Logical educated answers only please! And I know it's not in the bible, so save your copy and paste scripture for someone else.
