If Jesus doesn't have a sense of humor, why did he give me one?

the Pope recently upset the Muslim world with some ill-advised comments concerning the religion of Islam. Other things that have recently upset the Muslim community include Dutch cartoons, the sun, Diet Pepsi, artificial turf, the cast of Lost, Newark, ice cubes and pretty much anything else that isn't exclusively Islamic. Except for Tony Danza. They love that guy.
So why are the rest of us tripping over each other to either write, or read about this stupid crap? Let's just put the fingers in ears, and say "LA LA LA", like when we were kids. I am a muslim, and I don't care what the Pope says.

The wrath of God burns against them, their damnation does not slumber; the pit is prepared, the fire is made ready, the furnace is now hot, ready to receive them; the flames do now rage and glow...
God has laid himself under no obligation, by any promise to keep any natural man out of hell one moment. God certainly has made no promises either of eternal life, or of any deliverance or preservation from eternal death, but what are contained in the covenant of grace, the promises that are given in Christ, in whom all the promises are yea and amen. But surely they have no interest in the promises of the covenant of grace who are not the children of the covenant, who do not believe in any of the promises, and have no interest in the Mediator of the covenant...

...to help you here are my suggetions and thought please see if they help you answer the question: (please comment)

Since God created time there was no time for there to be father to God. There was no time for God to have a father so therefore in the absence of time there can be no father to Him. God 's Son who is Jesus Christ is a manifestation of God Himself. Since all things where and will be created by God, God created a manifestation of Himself in the Human form. The Holy Spirit is God in Spirit. That is why you can only worship Him in spirit and in truth. Jesus Christ said that He (Jesus) is The Way, The Truth and The Life. We are able to communicate with God through prayer as result of His Holy Spirit. Since in the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God (or a part of God), The Word was God. When Jesus said that in the house His Father which art in Heaven has many, many mansions and if it were not so He would have told us so; he was referring to God the Father.

It's all about risk taking. And if tomorrow is guaranteed to nobody, it's probably best to get right with God. Right now.

God's base will is life.

proven by:

The creation story in Gensis
all other stories of creation throughout the Bible
The promise of eternal life
Jesus' own words "life, life abundantly"

Are you promoting life for others? how?

Are you promoting death/destruction of others? how?

which came first, the chicken or the egg?
i personlly think that the chicken did. b/c God made the chicken to make eggs. and it does say in the Bible that he made animals, not eggs.

& all the major religions/gods were on the same team wouldn't you think they'd all be dissapointed at all you religious folks because of the way you argue amongst each other? Don't you think they're all on the same side?

Don't give me any smart remarks (it shows that you aren't open minded ... IGNORANT is the word isn't it? If I were religious I wouldn't put down anyone else's beliefs.

I'm thinking to baptize to be a Christian. I haven't is because I always remember what my friend said "If you regrad about baptied it's a big sin in bible..." I want to make sure I won't regrad one day. I've been praying for long time. I believe there is God but I'm not too religious (like believe Adam and Eve create human....or God creat this universe....can't really convince me. I think more scientific way...) One thing is my husband baptized when he was 7, and now he's in his thirties but he doesn't really believe. There is one way to lose him if I'm turing too religious. He always say don't try to change him. I don't want to change anyone's religion! I just want to know what is the best reason or situation to go bapitize. I'm very causious with that is b/c I think religion can be bigger than marriage or any other relationship. My original family are Buddism. I want to make sure it won't cause me any confusion or bother after baptized....I just think a lot...

People say it is wrong for the US to be in a war, because we were founded on christian principals. I say that the bible says there will be great battles in the end times. So if the bible says there will be battles, then doesn't that mean that there will be christian armies, and evil armies doing battle? And that to me says that war is condoned by the author of the bible. It is described, so there fore it must be. There is no date given for the final battle, nor are we told exactly who the battle will be against (no specific names) then isn't it our responsibility to fight every war that is thrust upon us with every ounce of mite that we have? This could very well be the final battle before the coming of Christ. And we have to win.

If we seek the will of God and align ourselves with God's will then we can truly claim to be doing the will of God.

Based on God's will being ever present through out time and never changing, what is the base will of God?

You may think Jesus' love is comforting, but, personally, it kind of aggravates me. If I can do whatever I want and still receive his love, what's the point? Christ's love seems to be the spiritual equivalent of getting the 'participant' ribbon. If everyone gets it, it hardly makes me feel special. Now, when Jesus donkey-punched me, that made me feel special.

If you were a recent immigrant refugee to the U.S. and lived in a city near several hundred other refugees in the U.S., would you accept an invitation to a Christmas party sponsored by the agency that assisted you upon arrival? Would you look forward to the party, or would you accept it begrudgingly? (The party would be solely for refugees (mostly Muslim) and volunteers.)

Should the agency think of a better way to socialize during the Christmas season? I know Muslims don't believe Jesus was God, but how do you feel in general about the American Christmas hype?
