Stop for a second and just think about the following....

According to Islamic scholars, Muhammad (sbuh) was involved in no less than TWENTY-SIX BATTLES.

Now stop and think about that...remember...Muslims claim this was God's true messanger, the man who God brought to the world to demonstrate the best conduct for humankind to follow for all time.

At the very least, anyone believeing in this religion MUST believe that religious war is a noble and desired event because Muhammad was involved in no less than TWENTY-SIX BLOOD SOAKED AFFAIRS.

Holy shhyyyttt. Islamic heaven must be a bath of blood, and Islamic angels must be the equivalent of what non-muslims call "devil".

This is literally jaw dropping.

Forget all other insanties of Islam or Muhammad himself (Pedophile, slave owner, etc). Just consider this fact alone. The man fought more battles than ROMMEL!!!!!! Hitle would have been so fortunate as to have such a hencheman as Muhammad!

No other world religion has and or tolerates a major voice within it espousing the killing of those who do not believe as they do. If a christian, buddist or Hindu group began advocating the terroristic murder of non belivers there would be great and visible oppostition from their own believers. Why are muslims not standing up to the vicious killers in their midst?

"Curators say a Norwegian exhibition on homosexuality among animals has been well received, despite initial indications of strong opposition.....

It says homosexuality has been observed among 1,500 species, and that in 500 of those it is well documented.....

Homosexuality is a common and widespread phenomenon in the animal world," says an exhibition statement.....

Not only short-lived sexual relationships, but even long-lasting partnerships; partnerships that may last a lifetime.....

Sometimes a pair of male birds may rear eggs donated by a female.....

In the case of flamingos, for instance, two males can hold a much larger territory than a regular flamingo pair, thus more chicks can grow up, the exhibition states.....

In some colonies, as many as one in 10 pairs of penguins may be same-sex, while in some animals the whole species is bisexual, the exhibition says, giving bonobo chimpanzees as an example....."

So could people being gay be natural / part of Gods plan?

I work with a Mormon family and I understand that Christians and Mormons have different fundamental beliefs, but I accepted an invintation to dinner where there are going to be "Missionaries". Are they trying to convert me?
Should I have something Biblical prepared to refute their arguments?

I heard a pastor on a radio station today preaching a sermon about who can enter in the kingdom of heaven (specifically im not getting into details) im just wondering if there is something fishy about this verse just because it has the three number 6's together and also the verse says: As a result of this many of his disciples withdrew and were not walking with Him anymore. do you guys think this was coincidence that these three numbers ended up together and who wrote the bible in verses and why?

I would really like to know why so much effort and time is being spent on trying to disprove the Bible. What are people's motives in doing this. If reading the Bible and going to church brings peace into a person's life, then what harm is it doing to anyone else. I understand that most wars have been because of Religion, but what about the normal everday bloke who just wants to have hope that there is a better life than this one. I dont care about evidence, it doesnt matter. There has to be a reason why we were put on this earth. There is no way I can believe we are only here for 70/80 years then nothing. If that is trully the case, then why do most of us suffer hardship and learn to become strong if the end result is nothing. You learn to become strong for a reason, not to just die and go into oblivion. Maybe only the strong ones go onto the next life? I would much prefer to think that way than to think there will be nothing when I die. What is the harm?

Whether you believe in Evolution, Creation or intelligent design, one thing is common to all three theories. They all pretty much say that we all came from one common single point of origin, which makes us all related. Why is this not enough for us to treat each other like brother and sister? I have a difference of opinions with my actual sister but it doesn’t make me love her any less. She likes putting jelly and oatmeal on her English muffins. I think that’s gross, she goes to church and I do not, I think church is stupid, but I would still risk my life for her if she needed me too.

The word Kenite is used 8 times thru out the O.T. Kenite being transliterated for, "Son's or from the tribe of Cain". 1 peter 3 :20 say's that only 8 souls were saved by water. Ok, Noah descended from the line of Seth not from Cain,(obivous), and Noah's daughters in-laws were of the same pedigree as Noahs...[referance: Genesis 6:9; the word "perfect"=without blemish], then my question is this..How did the Son's of Cain ,(Kenites) survive the flood.?....(just so you know, I believe every word of the Bible..I just want to know if other know the answer)..Thank You

Another quote from an answer about homosexuals marrying: "Marrying someone is putting ones stamp on their marriage saying that they are ready to serve God." Is marriage about serving God. Should atheists be barred from marriage? What about people from other religions who get married?

Most importantly, what makes atheists, people from other religions, etc. participating in a ceremony that requires approval from God OK to get married while homosexuals can't?

For someone who was raised with no religion, how do you make the leap to faith? It would be nice to believe in god, but I would only be lying to myself. I am sure if god existed, that would not be good enough.

In England a Muslim woman was fired from her grade school teaching job for wearing a full islamic outfit (incl. face veil). Now there's a debate in England whether this was right to do.

I say that in a country that has church & state seperate it is wrong to bring religion into the classroom, and if one was to present religion in a classroom, it should be the religion of the country, the religion the country has had since one can remember... in this case - Christianity, not a foreign religion.

What say you?

Apparently God works in mysterious ways. Some might say that God may or may not answer prayers, maybe performs miracles occassionally, pops up once in a while in places.

Reportedly the devil is constantly on the move, doing things, plotting, scheming, etc. Kind of pro-active sounding really.

Many of you may have been brought up with the "work ethic" drilled into you as a godly characteristic. But what of the devil? does he not sound to be working incredibly hard to undo God's creation.

Is Satan in fact more industrious and ambitious than God, and what implications does this have?

For the first time in my life I shaved my head, bald. Completely. When I was done I noticed a small mark, it is 333. Does this mean I am only half evil?

"A merry Christmas, uncle! God save you!" cried a cheerful voice. It was the voice of Scrooge's nephew, who came upon him so quickly that this was the first intimation he had of his approach.

"Bah!" said Scrooge, "Humbug!"

He had so heated himself with rapid walking in the fog and frost, this nephew of Scrooge's, that he was all in a glow; his face was ruddy and handsome; his eyes sparkled, and his breath smoked again.

"Christmas a humbug, uncle!" said Scrooge's nephew. "You don't mean that, I am sure."

"I do," said Scrooge. "Merry Christmas! What right have you to be merry? What reason have you to be merry? You're poor enough."

Are you a WARchristian, like Bush, or a LAWchristian? Do you think that the poor deserve what they get/don't get, but you are going to Heaven because you are following the rules?

If you are a WARchristian or a LAWchristian, do you think that you might be able to plead insanity on Judgement day?

We cannot gain our salvation through good works because our best works are not good enough to outweigh our sins.

Salvation is a gift from God, received only through faith in Christ, not good works (Ephesians chapter 2 verses 8-9).

How in the h.ell does anyone know how God thinks about anything.

If you believe that hogwash in the bible, fine. That does not give anyone the right to dictate morals throught the law.

What is even worse, is they teach this hate crap to their children.

If you are against gay marriage than by God, don't marry a gay person. Most of the gays that I know are too good for you anyway.
