Religion & Spirituality (Society & Culture) - 22 October 2006

Christians go into a mental tailspin when they realize that their fairy tale bible has been around for two millennia, yet less than 30% of the people on Earth believe it. They can NEVER rationalize their claim that the only way to heaven is through jesus the "son of god" because, if that were true, then god knowingly laid the groundwork for over 70% of "his children" on earth to go to hell for an eternity. Why would a god, who knows the past and the future, put a plan like that into motion, knowing that three-fourths of his children will be separate from him for an eternity, because they never chose jeebus as their savior and only way to the "kingdom"? He knows the future, he already knows their free will and what/how they will choose, so why write so ridiculous a book, so self-contradictory, violent and silly, that so few people accept that nonsense? Answer: he wouldn't.

Is that ever a wake-up call for people, or do most people just ignore logic and common sense?

I'm muslim, how come when ever i say anything about muslim people?

i get insulted and dissed. Everyone else, non-muslim, are so open minded and say true right things, why can't muslims do that. Why are they so defensive all the time, its not like i was attacking islam, i was just asking personal questions that have to do with MY life, not every single muslims'. This is the kind of thing that the world talks about when they say that we are so explosive, god damn.

Which Character do you admire the most from your religious texts and Why? Agnostics, Athiest read further?

Agnostics and Athiests can answer by quoting some of the charatcers - real life or from books that they have read on their beliefs.
Please don't quote religious texts, just name the character - Lets make it easier, you can name one male and one female character from your religious texts/books on your beliefs' that you think represents your particular faith or belief, and why you think they are the best representatives?
Think deeply and answer. And please no running down of any religions or faiths or of atheists or agnostics.

Why is Jesus and Mary etc portrayed as white?

serious answers only please and if I could get an answer without a bible verse, an i'll pray for you or any negativity. Truth is I've always just wondered how christians can actually take the image of jesus and mary so seriously when that could not possibly be what they looked like.
So why don't they picture jesus and so forth as the dark olive or black skinned people that they were?

Whats wrong with me trying to liberate the muslim women here in America?

Now listen, I have always been a big advocate of womens rights which is why whenever I see a muslim wearing a burka I tear it off and explain to her that she is not living under Taliban rule and she has the right to wear what she what she wants to wear. This usually leads to a confrontation between their husbands and I since they are obviously oppresive men and dont approve of my attempts to liberate their women. These women I am trying to help really dont show me much appreciation after what I am trying to do for them but that is probably because their husbands would beat them senseless if they did. If I am wrong for doing this than I dont know whats right.

How can people hate Jews and pray to a Rabbi named Jesus?

The most ridiculous people are hippocrites, ones that go to church and pray to an idol of Jesus and his mother Mary. When in fact Idol worshipping is damned in the 10 commandments. Jesus was a Jew and he was an ordained Rabbi teaching a form of reformed Judaism for the multitudes clearly stated and written. The Irony of someone making a Jewish mother into a religion she never even participated in is blasphemy. However once the Christians realize that the Jews and Christians are one we will defeat all the other opposing beliefs to the point of keeping our freedom of choice of faith. Dont you think we have fought long enough after all we based our country on Jesus lets all agree that America is predominately Christian and we need to uphold that freedom of choice?

How does a Christian go about entering into a relationship biblically?

If I were to be in a relationship with a girl, since I am a guy, is there any advice you can give me by using the word of God more so than your own words. I mean help on what to do and not to do will be taken but please use scripture to back up your answer if you possibly can. Thank you for whatever you help you can give.
