If god created christians, allah - muslims, jehovah - j. witnesses, etc, then why did these super powers create us almost all the same?
There is less than .1% difference genetically between all human beings so why the same? Did they get together and have a meeting to make sure they were all on the same track? Who is responsible for earth, solar system?
Who is right?

This question assumes a western culture where you have a choice...I certainly mean no harm to oppressed woman in Islamic countries, who, outside their state of oppresion, might very well chose to join civilization instead of being a Muslimah.

HONEST REPLIES ONLY ---

My honest experience is, that the most insecure woman, who are muslim and live in the west, chose to wear hijab. Typically, a woman who is confident and also still pridefully clings to some part of her Islamic upbringing, will not wear a hijab.

Insecure woman can be good-looking, although, to be frank, every western muslim woman (except one woman I saw on ET) I have ever seen in Hijab has been honest-to-goodness hideous.

For me the Sacrament of Penance and Eucharistic Adoration bring me out of a depressive or dark state of mind or heart. What works for you?

Why should I respect them for that? It doesn't make Christianity any less false. It doesn't change the fact that their religion is money grabbing. Shouldn't they dedicate their lives to something constructive and useful? The argument that their stupidity should be respected because they have been gullible for many years is just further stupidity, is it not?

religions operate. 1- is it true they all believe in the same God?
Because if they do, I can't see what all the fuss is about. It was suggested to me that they all intepretate the teachings of the Holly Books to suit their own ends and this is why they can't agree with each other, hence all the many wars commited in it's name over the millenia.
To me that sounds too simplistic. Maybe some of you could clue me, but please don't make long quotations from your Holly Books, I'd like to hear what your heart tells you.

Another thing I'm confused about. Do they all, in someway, teach ever lasting life? What a boring existance that would be, at least for me.If I'm a Christian, will I have to singing my praises to Christ for eternity, being in spirit form what else would there be to do?
If a Muslim fanatic do I spend my time having sex with virgins if I blow myself up taking as many innocent Muslims, Jews and Christians with me, I mean, where are they going to go?
Yes simplistic

God didnt have to make monkeys right? I mean, he could have totally left, creatures with 98% the same DNA and similar skulls and similar hands, out of the picture.

Follow me?

Why did God allow hominid fossil remains to be scattered where Darwin predicted they would be found? Or maybe the devil set that one up...snuck them bones into Africa after he inspired Darwin to predict that the precursor to man would be found there...

Ok, fine, so maybe God set-up all this trickery...but to test what...who was the dumbest and most capable of blind zombie worship?

DO YOU KNOW HIM AS YOUR LORD AND PERSONAL SAVIOUR, OR WILL U MEET HIM AS YOUR JUDGE WHEN HE SENDS YOU TO THE LAKE OF FIRE?

REPENT OF YOUR SINS TODAY, ASK THE LORD JESUS TO FORGIVE YOU AND COME INTO YOUR HEART AND DWELL WITHIN YOU.

SEEKING?
SEARCHING?
UNSURE?

Take two people and put them on two seperate desolate islands, and give each of them a copy of the Bible (same version) and tell them this is all you need to re-construct the church that christ setup while he visited the earth, and tell them that all they need is the Holy Spirit to guide them in their quest for knowlege.

What will happen?

What proof do you christians have that the bible is authentically divine?

Do you have anything except for: The book says it's from god, the book can't be lying 'cause it's always right, it's always right 'cause it comes from god, I know it comes from god because it says it comes from god...

If you've come with an answer like: The bible is obviously perfect, just read it.
Then you'll have to do better than that... It has been shown to contain many contradictions (http://www.skepticsannotatedbible.com/contra/by_name.html )
And though supposedly many prophecies of the bible have come true, they are all interperted in very abstract ways. Nostradamus' prophecies are supposed to have come true as well? So is he a prophet of god?

So, my question is, why do you think that the bible is divinely inspired?

Hello. I am a 24 yr old guy who has been struggling mightily with a lust problem. I have a habit of occasional masturbation and watching porn. However, i am a virgin and will be that way till marriage.
I have tried extremely hard to put an end to my masturbation and porn habit. But I always fail. The longest I went without masturbation and porn is 60 days. I wish I would be able to totally refrain from masturbation and porn so I can feel not guilty and totally concentrate all my efforts and hearts on what is more important such as careers, school, friendship.
It seems my efforts is not enough because I really tried extremely hard for long duration of time to be free from these sins. But the fact is I am still struggling.
I need some serious advices and suggestions on how to curb these habits completely. Can you offer me some serious advice?

There are vesions and versions of the bible. Everybody thinks their version is the true one. But there are so many of them. I can wake up one morning take a bible and cross out all the things I dont like in the bible, add my one ideas and that would be another version of the bible. I would make any copies of it and in a hundred years chrisitians will be following my version of the bible thinking it is the true version. Thats preety much what happened.
