Can any Judaism follower explain me about chosen people concept? Do you really think God could chose one nation supreme over another?

P.S In Islam chosen people refers to people being given the task of spreading the religion. Jews clearly misunderstood this and thought that they were above others.

I apologize in advance to all religions not founded by war cheitans, because, some religions suck much more than others, but because one religions sucks so bad, and is so miserably violent, unfortunately, it does put all religion under the microscope.

Anyway, many futurists see a time when all religion is gone. I have no doubt it will happen either, so long as we survive religion, or one religion in particular.

Have you ever read about people from an older civilzation and felt pity on them for growing up in such a limited enironment? Well...because we still live in a day when religion still exists...and we know it will die in the future...doesnt it suck that we live in this time instead of a religion free time?

Someone told me that there is no such word as "Trinity" in the Bible. Please quote the verse having the exact word "Trinity".

Muslims always seem to use the exact same questions over and over and over, as if there's some kind of seminar that trains Muslims exactly what to say to destroy a Christian's faith. They say things like "how can 1+1+1=1?" and "How can God have a son?" and "Why didn't Jesus ever say he was God?"

There seems to be a degree of short term memory loss among Muslims who are given the answers to these questions, because they seem to ask them over and over, as if they are looking for the WRONG answer so they can argue with it in support of Islam.

Is learning how to refute Christian beliefs an important part of Islamic education?

can people continue to say/believe that God (if he indeed exists) did NOT intend or plan that some humans would be straight, some would be gay and some would be in between?

And remember, according to most things I've heard, God is everywhere and in everything....isn't he there, too?

I used to have this really pretty ruby red rosary with a golden cross. It was my 1st bithday present. I always felt that God was protecting me with his mark while I had it on. But, infoutanetely this girl broke it on purpose and said that "heathens like don't deserve to wear this" I was so furious. My mom tried to fix it but it fell apart again.

What is 'love' to you, just a chemical reaction? Or is it something deeper than that?

If there is a middle road, its the undeclared agnostic. The person who manifests no belief, but retains some silly religious identity "Im a catholic...Im Luthern".

However, someone who simply declares "I am agnostic, I do not now know whether God does, or does not exist. I have not seen sufficient proof either way" does not occupy a middle ground. In fact, it may be the only honest ground.

I respect atheists, although I find many of them to be emotionally scarred by religion, more than committed to a certain idealogy. I personally think God probably doesnt exist. However, I am sure that, if he does, he is emotionally secure enough to cope with, and understand, my position.

Isn't that the same as accepting that the earth's surface may be curved (because you can see the horizon), but rejecting the notion that our planet may in fact be spherical?

The nine Satanic Staements
1. Satan represents indulgence instead of abstinence!

2. Satan represents vital existence instead of spiritual pipe dreams!

3. Satan represents undefiled wisdom instead of hypocritical self-deceit!

4. Satan represents kindness to those who deserve it instead of love wasted on ingrates!

5. Satan represents vengeance instead of turning the other cheek!

6. Satan represents responsibility to the responsible instead of concern for psychic vampires!

7. Satan represents man as just another animal, sometimes better, more often worse than those that walk on all-fours, who, because of his “divine spiritual and intellectual development,” has become the most vicious animal of all!

8. Satan represents all of the so-called sins, as they all lead to physical, mental, or emotional gratification!



9. Satan has been the best friend the Church has ever had, as He has kept it in business all these years!

I mean IQ doesn't really tell you anything other than your capacity for learning. It is not a statement about how smart you are, or how much knowledge you have, so what difference does it make? I am an atheist and I am still puzzling over this one, and my IQ is around 150. (real IQ test taken at 11 due to court issues, not an on-line "IQ" test)
