Religion & Spirituality - 7 November 2006

I have just recieved a letter from one of the secondary school's i applied for for my child in Sept. We are applying on the non religious acceptance as we are not catholics. My child has to sit a religious test next week and pass to be accepted. What Q's will be asked and what prayers should we know. Has anybody gone through this last year or has knowledge of the test and what we need to know. Your answers would be greatly appriciated, thank you. U.K

Steal from the dead? Not only that why would they destroy a Child's grave? do they have no feeling? What are they? Please explain why would anyone do this? I do not understand, if another human being knows what a grave means to a family member why do the steal the body and its content, is just morbid, no? Do they not fear God?

(This really happened. A mother had just burried her baby, and people robbed the tomb 3 days after, about 4 years later she hired a cleaning lady, the daughter of the cleaning lady was talking to the woman about how they lived behind the cementery and one day they destroyeed a child's tomb, she said the name, it turned out to be that lady's son)

Considering that according to Google Trends by far most internet searches for gay sex and gay pornography come form Islamic countries where homosexuality remains illegal, the public image presented to us of Islam and the private lives of Muslims do not match.

Are they overzealous? They say that if you don't get bit then you are a true believer, but why would you put your life and health in danger like that? Or are they quack jobs for the above listed reason?

I am not a Muslim so I don't know.

But if Mohammed says "the Koran is the word of God" and the Koran says "Mohammed is the prophet of God" and two of the central things to believe are the Koran and the Hadith...then they both rely on the other being true but neither can substantiate the other.

Also, since the Koran was written outside space and time (Muslims believe) there is no external evidence that can back it up. It is mainly admonitions and exhortations, with very,very little history compared to the Bible for example.

This makes Islam a leap of faith?

Ironically, the Muslim creed "There is no god but Allah andMohammed is his messenger" is a statement of fact...while there is no EVIDENCE for Islam. In Christianity the many varieties of creed all begin "I belive in god the Father..." "I believe in the Resurrection and the Life..." And yet the Bible is packed with verifiable stories. - verifiable by archaeology, eyewitness statements, other independent sources.

Thanks

If there isn't a God and there is no religion then why do you get all upset on this site with Christians that don't exist. Or Muslims or Jews or what ever 'you say there is no religion. I don't believe that herbal medacine works but I don't argue with herbelest people.

Leaders of countries are just pawns in thier Global Game of
chess. They are trying to destroy the money system by
raising prices higher and higher. And we play right along
with our material greed.
The are playing on peoples "values". Kicking people from their
homes for suffering from addictions. They want us to REBEL,
so they can call in the troops. And stupid people will throw
rocks at guys with machine guns, and we will get STOMPED.
Are these Free Credit reports a STING operation to find out
where we are, so they can hold that over our heads too, so
we will do what we're told?
WAKE UP PEOPLE!

Both men were great teachers. They both encouraged compassion and modesty. We all can agree that both Jesus and Buddha were a good men. To Christians, does this mean that Buddha will go to hell since he did not recieve Christ? He lived before Christ was born so how can he receive Christ? How can a decent man go to hell when he has done good works to mankind simply by not accepting Christ?

Your religion is lying to you, listen to your heart for the sake of your own good. Check this out, your guys religion didnt even START OUT right. In Sura 10:3 is CLEARY says that the world was created in 6 days (periods), THEN, in Sura 41:9-12 is CLEARY states creation was in 8 days (periods).........so wat was if followers of "Allah"..- JESUS STILL LOVES U, come unto him while u still have a chance

The question starts the statement with IF. That little word says it all. If only people would accept Jesus and His salvation.
The answer is that most people do not want to surrender control of their lives to anyone including Jesus. To be a Christian one has to surrender to Jesus, repent of one's sins, confess his sins to God, and change his life style from a sinful life to a holy life.
The carnal nature loves sin and sinful pleasures and pursuits. The whole world could be saved but God will not force the world to accept salvation. Listen to His invitation in Revelation 22:17:And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.
John 3:15That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. 16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life
