I recently got an email from a legal firm, that claimed there may be libel civil in your home, if your home has ghost in it. I was shocked by the ad and thought about it, I wonder how many people actually have ghost of a malice nature in their home? How many of people hear external communication and internally reply? Or is it all some type of strange voodoo or something else?

Where is the scripture in the book of Jeremiah that supposedly talks about Yule and talks about the Christmas tree and forbids it?

In a world where we keep to ourselves, shouldn't it be okay to push your beliefs, religious or non-religious? I don't think anyone should have control, but they should be allowed to push their beliefs at least.

Is suicide against God's law or church law? Jesus knew the Romans would kill him so doesn't that make it suicide?

I just saw this biblical snippet: Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you.

No doubt it's open to hundreds of different interpretations. It looks to me like it says that if you honor your parents, you will live a long life. As in this life, NOT the afterlife.

Is that correct? If so, how does one explain the loving children who die young? Or the ******* who live into their 90's? If the answer is that there are exceptions, then doesn't that invalidate this "promise?"

Is it time for the feminine to let go of it's rage at the masculine that has failed to serve her properly?
Or do we yet need more men out there who have recognised this truth first?

I've had many people tell me that my vegetarianism is wrong because God put animals on the earth to be eaten. First of all, I'm not even Christian. Second, there's no Biblical passage stating that vegetarianism is wrong or sinful.

I heard about something on the Bible Answerman (Hank Hanegraaf's show) that Joyce Meyer teaches that Jesus went to hell to defeat the devil. Where is her basis for this in the Bible?

When did Islam start? Im serious. Bcoz the "great" Dr Zakir Naik on his website claims that Islam has been there since time immemorial ever since the first man set foot on earth (but gives no proof there). He also claims that Islam was not started by Muhammed. It is in the FAQ of islam, most common ques asked by hindus. Now if Muhammed made / discovered / invented ( whatever u want to call it ) the concept of allah then what was there before him? I was wondering that before allah whom did muslims worship and what were they called? Did they worship christ before allah? Were they jews? Pagans? Hindus? Whom did the muslims worship? What caused people of Islam to worship different people / gods every few hundred yrs? Why did they change gods so often?

Is there any proof that Islam was there before Muhammed?

As a Christian, I want the whole world to know the Truth.
Jesus is the Truth and the only Way to the Father.
Jesus is our Lord, our Savior, our God.

But the JWs want you to believe otherwise. Their main false teaching is the Jesus is not God.

Under the guise of Christianity, they are taking many, many Christians away from Jesus.

What are you doing to stop them?

I pray for them. What about you?

I'm independant. My parents never forced religion on me. I chose to be a Christian based on my understanding of reality and a bit of common sense. I weighed the options and Christianity won out everytime.

I did this along with a few other billion people. Do people really think this sort of "mass dillusion" is possible? Why do people hate what they just fundementally don't understand? Are they being bigots when they call Christians stupid or mentally ill?

Why is your free thinking better than my free thinking? Do you have to be an Atheist to be a free thinker? Do you have to deviate from the norm in order to be a free thinker? Under the free thinking as "a deviant from the norm" wouldn't that make Atheist in fact crazy?

How can you possess something you have no control over? We stole land from Native Americans, from Mexicans. We buy meaningless crap when people are starving. How do you define theft?

I'm likeing the answers, so I want to know one last time, do you know people like this?
Once in school a girl told me; "Pokemon is satanic, because if you turn the P into a D and put it behind the K it says OK Demon!"
(Which technically makes Christmas satanic, cause Santa Clause is an anagram for SATAN Clause)
I grew up in a very conservative Protestant Christian community, and people believed all kinds of weird things like this, like that wearing black lipstick or nail varnish meant you're a devil worshipper.
Who else has experianced people like this and what is the weirdest thing you have heard them believe?

Many Jehovah’s Witness try to prove that the only people who will go to heaven will literally number 144,000 by quoting Prof. Thomas, The Master’s Seminary, US, and a Dr. Bullinger (who’s dead). The Prof. recently responded:

“Your JW friend has clearly taken what I wrote in my Revelation commentary out of its context. Yes, I do understand the 144,000 to be a literal number of witnesses during Daniel's future seventieth week, but they are witnesses on earth, not in heaven as he takes them to be. Nowhere do I endorse his heretical theory that they will "rule from heaven with Christ over a paradise earth." If he reads the whole commentary carefully, he will understand my position... Your friend is reading into my quotation a meaning that is unbiblical, one that arises from the heretical presuppositions of the JWs."

How can JWs quote the Prof's literal take on 144,000 without acknowledging he disagrees with every other aspect of the JW doctrine? Are they out to mislead?

Australia's top Muslim cleric says unveiled women are like 'uncovered meat' who attract sexual predators. "If she was in her room, in her home, in her hijab (veil), no problem would have occurred." My question: why don't Muslims like this go live in Saudi Arabia or Iran? Why do they stay in the west?

Yeah, Yeah. I will wish I did say or think that when I am really in Hell, blah blah blah. If this is how you answer, be original with references to my impending doom. Just remember, a few months ago I said I would take over and make Hell cool.
