The universe, created in seven days, and 4000 years ago?
I don't think so.

If you believe in such thing then tell me, how can you explain dinosaur fossils? Why exactly is evolution absurd when its in front of your face? Is it so hard to believe that we evolved from ancient apes? And that all living things in this planet came from one first cell?

I have a mixed belief: God made the big bang and then let things go on thier own.

.....and why is this such an important part of the religion? Leastwise so much emphasis being put on these "72 virgins" after the start if the Iraqi war. Does this same promise also apply to females if they die as martyrs? In both the Islam religion as well as Christianity, there seems to be quite a bit of emphasis on sex! It gives pause to a lingering question about the real meanings behind the different religions. Some of the verses in both the Bible and the Quran, as well as the Torah and the first five books of the Bible are so archaic! as well as being confusing.(With reference to God or Allah or Jehovah or any other reference to an Almighty...Did HE really mean there to be so much confusion?)

Where in your home is it taboo to fart? Any forbidden fart areas?
And why did you make this rule? Or are you a child of nature, friend of man, and you just let the brown donkey yodel in your fjord at any time? Please elaborate.

We always had been belivers in something, just from beginning, and no one can say that their religion have the right answer, and to day we know that almost anything can be explained to have a nature relation, and there is not a person or God behind, but any person have the right to say his opinion.

I'm a Christian, however, I strongly believe that if you really want to know what other religions believe(specially islam),you have to read it from an non-biased book. Do you know of any?

What is a christofascist? How can we get rid of them? Can we live or are they going to subject us to Biblical law? Do christians take showers?

Suggestions? (Here is five I can think of right off)
- get real, rather than being sow dog gone law law
(Christ-ianity is about Christ: is the end of the law)
- tone down the 'begging', for tithes and offerings
(even better yet, flush all sacrifices, good and better)
- stop 'you too can have partiality from impartial God'
(for there is no respect of persons with God, nor Son)
- note that Christ ascended "far above the heavens"
(and while yer at it note Christ sitteth & Jesus standeth)
- stop law imputing sin and death for the hell of it
(law imputed sin makes sinners all, none righteous at all)

"I am not an evolutionist. I likewise have serious questions about some of their claims. But, it is irrelevant to me. I do not believe anything "originated" or was "created" which negates evolution and the Bible. I believe life landed here and came forth but it was not a creation, it was "seeding" from outer space."

According to theory or law of reincarnation we all are bound to reborn on this planet many times according to our Karma,All religion do believe in Reincarnation ,with the difference to the place of birth,Our planet,paradise or hell.Reincarnation say that Peoples of highly spirtual level must born again to protect their teachings.As Mohamud has many many similarities with Osama so thinking of Osama as Reincarnation of Mohamud is very likely.

"You don't believe the right stuff because Satan has deceived you"

No, maybe actually there is no Satan and I happen to be right.

Intellectual stalemate. No further discourse possible. Satan, in this context, is even more of a nuisance than God, because one side gets the serious heeby jeebies whenever he's mentioned and can't discuss in a relaxed manner. I think.

First off, doesn't it stop becoming "personal" when you Christ Cultists congregate or try to spread you BS religion to other cultures? Personal means you go into your bedroom , lock the door and dance around with snakes, talk to yourself (pray) or read some fiction (the bible).

Secondly, the whole Idea of a relationship with a person you have never met or even worse a deity that doesn't exist seems borderline delusional...wait, it is delusional. With that logic I can claim I have a relationship with Winona Ryder even though I have never met her, spoken to her. Hell my relationship with her has more substance because I can at least look at a picture of her and get wood.

Why did the christians train and fund Al Qaeda during the 80's in Afghanistan to fight the Russians. And use them as a proxy to attack the communist government if they are terrorists? What gives them the right to overthrow some one else's government?

Why is this more believable than the current scientific theory that explains the origins of life on earth (at least to a mindless Christ Cultist)? Even in its incomplete state, its still easier to swallow the scientific explanation than the bulshite Christ Cultists try to sell.

Whats wrong with theses people? Are they so full of fear of the unknown that they actually force themselves to believe the idiotic bible?

Why do so many people misunderstand the muslim relgion and culture????
The unitarian church I attend does many activities with a local muslim church like picnics and so so forth......I have worked with muslim doctors and have muslim friends....I am still surprised by all the negative responses they get due to many misconceptions regarding their religion and culture...
I believe that yes u cannot agree with everything another person says or does but u can still coincide and still be friends....Sometimes u need to agree to disagree because no one is qualified to judge the life of another...
I am a American and I can accept that there are many other cultures and religions......There is nothing wrong with that and no matter what people say there will always be muslim's, Christian's, Buddism, etc... and that is the truth..

It doesn't necessarily have to be a religious figure. It can be anyone whom you think is deserving of that title.

No one seriously questions the existence of things that actually exist such as dogs, cats, the Sun or Moon.

The fact that people ask questions about God's existence is conclusive proof God does not exist.
