On a scale or 1 to 10 where would you say ‘compassion for all people’ places as matter of importance in your religion?

1 - not important
10 - nothing more important.

How about the ‘non-religious’; what importance do you give compassion in your lives?

There are some sharp ppl here, and I appreciate anyone who is knowledgeable, speaks with reason, and uses the brain in their heads whether I agree with their opinion or not. But, geeze, some of the stuff spouted here is just plain nuts. Am alone in this observation?

as it turns out, GOD has a different time wave than me and six days might have acutally meant six years. If this is true do I have a credible case to take off the next year so I can honor the sabbath, keep it Holy??

Believe me, atheists, God is doing you a great favour. In Deuteronomy the Israelites were frightened so God sent Jesus who radiated love, mercy and healing and did not frighten people (Deutoronomy 18).
Deut 5:20 And as soon as you heard the voice out of the midst of the darkness, while the mountain was burning with fire, you came near to me, all the heads of your tribes, and your elders. And you said, ‘Behold, the Lord our God has shown us his glory and greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the midst of the fire. This day we have seen God speak with man and man still live. Now therefore why should we die? For this great fire will consume us. If we hear the voice of the Lord our God any more, we shall die.

You want God to do everything for you even when you lack interest in Him. Would you really be able to handle it if He appeared 2 feet from you when you can't even look at the sun millions of miles away?

I have saints of ladderdy or whatever they are called, come to my house, no they are a different door to door religion group, oh what are they called.
Got it Jehova witnesses, ok they come to my door, now I used to listen to them and such but they came so often that 2 of them came up and i said no thanks and slammed the door in there face.
I do belive in God and Jesus died on the cross and repent my sins, and all that.
This wasn't christian of me, what should I do?
Don't tell me to tell them to polietly leave cuz they don't.
Next time i'll have a nail ready next to my door and hang a cross upside down and put in some red contacts and make a fake book that says Devils Bible in red bloody looking ink and have a cloak on, and record some sheeps getting slaughtered from a butcher for an audio and invite them in to worship to my prince of darkness.
Bet they wouldn't come in.

When I was young, I used to have unclean thoughts about dogs and horses, and I was even invited to be on an episode of Jerry Springer because of it. But a friend of mine showed me the Bible and told me about how Jesus was God and died for my sins. A week later I was immersed in baptism and now I'm a new creation, and none of those Satanic thoughts happen any more! How can you possibly explain that?! You can't, can you, because only God can explain how he cleaned my heart, because I accepted Jesus as my Savior and he broke the chains that Satan was holding me with, the chains of lust and depravity!

A friend I worked with years ago once told me this:
He was out hunting and it was pouring rain. His jacket was wet, he was wet. As he walked along heading back across this meadow about a mile from his vehicle. He sees a man and a dog walking toward him. The rain suddenly stops but he is still dripping. The man with the dog get near. So he stops and talks to with him. They exchange pleasantries. He asked the man what he is doing out in the weather (No gun so he was not hunting) The man replies just enjoying a walk with his dog. So they part company. My friend takes a few steps before he realized that neither the man nor the dog were wet and the man had no coat. He turned to ask him why he was not wet. And they were gone, man and dog. To this day he believes he spoke with and Angel. What would you think if this was you?

And if not, how do you explain the bones. If so, how do you reconcile that with the earth being created in six days. (Dinos came before man but had to have lived more than six days)

No one has ever proven Santa does not exist. And millions of people claim he is real and rewards you for being good.

Why would you refuse to believe?

If god is omniscient and omnipotent, the alpha, the omega, the creator and nothing existed before god and he created all, would it not stand to reason that for evil to exist it must have been created by god. If god is perfect and infallable, and knew all that would take place until the end of time even before the very first act of creation and he created lucifer knowing full well that lucifer would become the fallen angel satan would it not stand to reason that god created lucifer on purpose? Or adam ? I mean if i make a cake and even before i make that cake i know it will not taste good, do i continue making that cake? Do i blame the cake for not tasting good? Is it the cakes fault that it does not taste good or mine? If I am a perfect and infalable creator being and I create something and it disobeys me, is it not my fault? Did i not intend for it to disobey me? I mean i know the future right? How could my creation act in a way i did not anticipate if i know all that will be?

do they insist on saying "I'll pray for you" when I have a problem or "gOD bless you" when I sneeze? I honestly feel insulted, where do they get off casting their holy spells on me?

I mean, come on! It's only a THEORY. And don't give me that crap about 'gravity is a theory too'. Ever heard of the law of gravity? LAW. And thermodynamics says that things become more chaotic, but evolution says they become more ordered, and thermodynamics is a LAW, got it? So this LAW says your THEORY is a lie!

Answer that!

Does your religion tell you to focus on rectifying your own faults and not that of others?

If it does, do you practice this?

Why are you not defending our God? The TRUE God!
I've been mocked and scoffed at for warning Satan's followers by my own bretheren!
If you are not True Christian, you shall also face judgement and burn in torment for eternity.
Who will help me defend The Lord?
