According to christian teachings,God sent the flood and wiped out everything (except the ark and it's occupants ) because the world had become full of sinners.
Also according to christian teachings, we are all born of sin and therefore we are all sinners.
Should I be worried when it starts raining?

attended a functions, there's an 80 old man who told me this statement, "serrendering yourself to Jesus and when you die, you will go straight to "up there", if you don't that's only one place left, "down there!" I find the statement rather logic defying, and blind- faithed. If mother Teresa was not a christian, she would have gone to hell, and if Hitler was a christian, he would have gone to heaven, does it sound right?

For people who think to be so smart you would think they would come up with original material instead of re-runs about the prophet (PBUH), about the 72 virgins, about terrorism. Yesterday I saw a totally unrelated question (not even having to do with Islam, it was a bout their faith and charity) and they still spoke about Muslims to answer the stupid question. Do they not have something better to do? If they just practice what they preech maybe I would not feel so frustrated. Instead they try to create animosity. May Allah have mercy on everyone Muslim and non-muslims... We do not make fun of you why should you bother us... Practice what you preach.... (If you are worried about the 72 virgins thing then you have bigger problems my friends).

Salam Alaikum Brothers and Sisters,
I am a convert into Islam but still have a lot to learn and have a lot of questions. I have read the whole Quran with the meaning 3 times and came up with a question as to why Islam and Quran permits a husband to beat up his wife for disobeying him?
Why do the rate of Domestic Violence highest among our Muslim Brothers and Sister?
Why do men use the verse from the Quran (4:34) as an excuse to beat their wives?
And what does Quran say about those men who beat their wives? Is there any punishment for them?
Also I have another question that why do men say that there will be majorty of men in the Heaven than women. Why so even after seeing how many men torture and abuse their wives.
This is world known fact I dont want to be rude to my muslim brothers and I know there are some of them who are not the way I am describing alot of them here.
And why do Allah (swt) promised men virgin wves in heaven? What about women? Isnt there a reward for a women

Being on the road so much, what would've been a realistic thing at that time in that part of the world for him to carry to snack on? Something tells me he didn't carry around a bag of homemade trail mix. I don't think he stopped at hotdog carts either.

Most people here were raised as cristitians, read the bibel, prayed to jesus, etc. You are NOW where we were 20 years ago. We have heard the cristian stuff before, and concluded it was of no value, and fled from it.

In January of this year I picked up my family and several others who then and thus have followed my lead and changed churches.

This is a Word of Faith Church where the preacher is unlike any other church I have been to in my life. The man is deep into the word and keeps you enamored.

You would just have to be there to know what I mean. As a matter of fact the church will have a website up and you may email me if you desire this address.


But there are so many things on the internet that discredit word of faith churches..................help............I need solid answers............do I need to move now?
