If you saw a really really bad question that sounded like that person would harm someone of that race or religious belief, would you want them reported to the government such as the Homeland Security Council. even if they asked it in here.

ITS NOT FREEDOM OF SPEECH, ITS A CRIME TO THREATEN A LIFE. ANY LIFE.

If you use this question to threaten as a joke, that’s just as bad as the real person that would really do that to someone.
When people joke about killing or hurting someone, how will we find people like terrorist or any other committing the real crime?

try asking god to pay your bills, or when the bailifs come round. tell them your faith in god will pay the bills.

Every creationist i have ever debated on the subject of evolution has had a gross misunderstanding of it. Many of them don't know the proper meaning of the word "theory" in a scientific context.

I believe that if you are going to try to prove something wrong you should know all you can about it before you make any claims to the contrary.

I found this website on creation science: http://www.icr.org/

Please investigate it and tell me what you think.

I´m saying that there cannot be two weights and two measures. If you faithful deny the correctness of science, you should live pure, and deny also its most successful expressions. If you take advantage of science to undermine it in other fields, it´s like biting the hand that´s feeding you. After all, science works along the same concepts whether about astronomy, medicine or physics. If you want to go for the god BS, you should live away from ANYTHING that has originated in science if you want to be true. Central heating, air conditioning, medicine, vehicles and electronics, even these computers on which you ramble all the time. Otherwise, you´re just a bunch of hypocritical opportunists

Ok, so I posted a question, before that riled a lot of people up. It was about “Culling”. Read if you choose, thats not the real question?

But here is the real question. Have you been praying for my lost soul, my misguided soul, My poor trouble soul. Is it wrong to think that everyone in society should be put to a use.? Is it wrong to think compassion, is a wasted emotion along with love.

Isn't ambition the only good and true emotion? Isn't money the most powerful God of today. Are am I wrong?

Do you feel that we all experience God/the Divine the same or differently? Do you feel that each person perception of God is the same?

For Christains: And if you do feel that we experience 'God' differently, why do they?

Why does most mainstream religions say that others are worshipping a different God, if we do percieve God differently?

Twenty-five years ago I was active in a church, preparing to attend seminary and as far as I could tell, I was a “fully committed Christian”. Today I am a Neo-Pagan. I have been told by any number of people that the only way this could happen is that I was never a *true* Christian in the first place.

So, how can you tell if you are indeed a true Christian?

There is only one Judge in Heaven.

The bible tell us what we should do and what we shouldn't

It also says to repent, pray.

It also says GOD is meriful and forgiving

How do we know who has repented, ask for forgiveness, ect.

How do we human's no other people real heart and soul enough to Judge them?

Islam requires its followers to physically practice their religion every day. Meanwhile, it became possible for a Christian to practice only once a week. Is this too loose a grip? Is Islam's grip on its followers stronger because it has no Sabbath Day?

Christians believe the devil is smart and cunning. His biggest trick is making 'us' believe he does not exist - an yet his evil rules much of the world. This got me wondering what I would do if I were a devil..

I think I'd have most fun in turning christians, somehow making them so fanatic they see faith as fact and feel a need to destroy all else. I'd think the devil would be fairly happy these days now that religions are gearing themselves for war.

Do you think I'm influenced by the devil to then question war, violence, hatred and religion at the root? Or is there a chance fanatical religious people Jesus' arch enemy?

If the laws of science dictate that matter and energy can not be created or destroyed, but only transformed, then how did the universe come into being without the presence and act of God?

FYI--In case you're wondering, my personal belief is that there is no conflict between religion and science on the point of creation if you read Genesis in a non-literal way. The essence of the Genesis story was as follows: God created, in this order, light & dark, stars and other planetary objects, seas & skies, creatures of the ocean, plants and creatures of the air/land, and then human beings. This is essentially the same chronology which the Big Bang theory and the theory of evolution would suggest. Moreover, the point of the story is that God created us, we sinned, and the history of the earth from a human perspective went on from there.

Of course, as a writer in The Lutheran magazine pointed out: we, as human beings, have both an imperfect understanding of God and of science....

who King Solomon was and his wife Queen Sheba. in any understanding. Christianity, Islam anything. i understand from the Islam realigion that King Solomon was known as the prophet Sulaiman and he married Queen Sheeba who worshipped the sun but enlighted by KS when his subjects (those of other dimensions) built a magnificient castle with floors of crystal (if im not mistaken). When QS entered the castle she though the floor was running water and lifted her dress before stepping in. and at that moment she realized the beauty of the religion that KS was conveying to her. i might have gotten this wrong though. theres more to the story, but the last time i heard it was like 5 million years ago. and from the Quran KS could talk to animals and those not of this world.

Do you think you could live with bad teeth, germs, parasites and broken limbs just leaving your ailments in the hands of your "absentee landlord" god almighty (to quote Pacino)?
Or maybe you´d like to steal the credit of discovering penicillin and aspirin for example in the name of your allbity?

Need to vent me spleen guys so stick with me a min.
Just been to a civil wedding ceremony between two men. Outside are a group of protestors with banners claiming to be of a religion and shouting abuse like "this is a sin!"
Ok maybe in YOUR mind this is a sin. If you are right then, God will surely deal with them when and how he wants to when they leave this Earth. But who gives them the right to persacute, invade and make a mockery of these gay mens beliefs.
You don't see them standing outside a church with banners objecting to you! Who do you think you are? Just because there is however may billion of Catholics or Christians in the world who believe the same thing it doesn't make that thing true.

Most people are born into what they believe, those that aren't have an even lesser chance of changing their minds.
