i mean most women convert Islam because the way it treats her im a women and in Islam im treated the best...men open car doors when im going in, they help us, they don't let us stand in lines for stuff in markets for example, they let us pass first. if a women is carrying something heavy they help her with it, sometimes i wake up and my car is clean, because my old man neighbor cleaned it while cleaning his i lived my whole life in Muslim countries. Palestine, Jordan, Saudi, Egypt and went to the USA and Britain but never found a good way in treating a women , only in Islam When a women is married, she can not work if she does not want, but she also can, both ways the HUSBAND is the one to spend money on her, the money she gets from work is hers When she is hurt even by a touch she can go to court, Islam gives her the right to divorce and have money too my mom and all Muslim married women i knew in my whole life are treated LIKE QUEENS. Why do people say that Islam is against women?

God approved of homosexual incestuous relationships at that time? Also, could it be that Cains wife was in actual fact Abel even though he was dead? Surely back then, the laws of nature were quite different to what we have now, so dead men may have been able to father children, and the talking animals may have been the midwives?

Man has been inventing religions and gods for thousands of years, many of which have lasted thousands of years but eventually died out : sun worship, moon worship, ocean worship, star worship, Egyptian religion, Inca religion, Aztec religion, Maya religion, Native American religion, Greek religion, Roman religion, Aboriginal religion, African tribal religions, mono theistic religions, Maori religion etc etc.


See this link to see a selection of some of the gods that have been created.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gods

Why are the current crop of manmade gods any different.

Their main advantage seems to be that improved worldwide centuries over the centuries have enabled them to spread far and wide.

But will this be enough to save them from extinction like all the other religions that have been and gone ?

.......they fear admitting that we are not all devinely created perfection created in the image of some kind of god. That maybe our orgins are not quite so glamourous as they would like to think, that maybe we are not as important in this universe as they would like to think.

Does the fact that we shared a common ancestor with other primates dent their pride ?

Are they so full of themselves that they really believe we were devinely created ?

Is it letting go of this notion the real issue that creationists have ?

You Atheist usually lie to be Christians when someone ask you in the outside world, but you seems to fill up the cyber world totally. Why are you not open even in the outside world? Why don't you be proud of who you are? Another Question; Give me one evidence (simple, easy, direct) that God does not exist.

Many of you said; God doesnt exist because you cannot see him, have you ever seen the air you breath, close your mouth, nose, and say, Air does not exist, to see if you will live for some minutes without you dying.

1) saying that it has to be taken in context

2) saying that it has to taken in the context of the time it was written

3) saying "oh, but that's the old testament that doesn't count anymore ......... except of course when it can back up our arguments"

4) being able to randomly choose which bits are to be taken literally and which bits are to be taken as a metephor.... as the need arises.

The same excuses could be used for any document

Matthew 19:12: For there are eunuchs who were born that way from their mother's womb, and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs who made themselves eunuchs for the Kingdom of Heaven's sake. He who is able to receive it, let him receive it.

Ok, so there is plenty of evidence that not all Eunuchs at the time were castrated - some eunuchs had children, and some were intact. Some people think that gay men would have been termed eunuchs.

What do you make of this passage?

Does anyone think they might become a eunuch "for the glory of God"?

I know its been done before but do you follow the logic of the following argument?

You are all atheists when it come to all the other 100's of religions in the world, you do not believe their holy books are the innerant word of god, you think their rituals serve no purpose, and that they are in fact a source of evil in the world because they are not the true way to live.

Can you not see we agree with you and just go one step further and include your particular religion, quoting from the bible/Koran doesn't help because all believers reference their holy book, can you not see that you are just doing the same?

they take this one "Me and God are one". which can have alot of explanation. such as Jesus can't speak by himself, but from God who tell him what to do, it's not necessary mean that Jesus is God. remember the Bible has been translated and it's not accurate.

but you never take these verses too literal?

Deuteronomy 6:4
Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord.

1 Corinthians 8:6
But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things,

Matthew 27:46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

Matthew 19:17 And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.

1st commandment: you shall not take other gods but Me.

I mean, what is the point of an afterlife? We live so that life is better for those that follow. If not for the person who harnessed fire, the person who developed the wheel, Edison, Bell, Einstein, etc. we would not have the easy lives we have now. That is the meaning of life.

What is the meaning of an afterlife?

but the corect spelling wud be "Allaha Allaha lamach sabachtani".
The reason i am saying this is becoz God in aramaic is Allaha not Eli(hebrew).

Did the church purposely change it to "Eli" to disprove the muslim's claim that Allah is arabic for God.?

Aramaic , Hebrew and Arabic are sister languages and God is spelled very similiar - Allaha, Eli (or Ellah), Allah - respevtively.

What is the difference between these three Muslim "denominations"? Is it political, theological, or both? Are there other divisions?

Do they all read the same Koran, or are there different scriptures too?
