This one is starting to kind of annoy me. The guidelines say"Give an answer a thumbs-down rating when you feel the answer is not helpful to the person who asked the question. Give a question a thumbs-down rating when you feel it doesn't quite violate the Guidelines, but it belongs more on a chat board, and not on a Q&A ."

I find especially in the areas of politics and religion (Thats why i put this question in religion so it would be seen), so many thumbs (either up or down) are awarded simply because users agree or disagree with the askers opinions or ideology.
Example-"Don't you think abortion is murder of an unborn child?" Answer 1 Yes (it get tons of thumbs up and a bunch of thumbs down too) Answer 2: No, a woman has a right to make that decision (also many thumbs). The best part is the askers then award best answer to the asker who just told them what they wanted to hear all along. Plus, if you know what ansers you want to here, do you really need to ask the question?

Why do some religions emphasize the more severe side of God, and others the more forgiving side?
For example Islam teaches that Allah will punish all those who have not lived by his teaching whereas Christianity teaches that God will forgive you if repent.

i really do wish people would stop making their own version of the bible
i refer to this question and answer at the bottom
http://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Ao5RYLuM_KvnUJwEvhZ5ntEgBgx.?qid=20061119042457AAD65WX
it seems that people believe that only Christians may have prophetic dreams ... non Christians who do this are getting it from the devil and not from God
the answerer gives a passage of the bible to explain this
it reads ...
and it shall come to pass afterward that i shall pour out my spirit on the flesh , and your sons and daughters shall prophesy , your old men will dream dreams , your young men shall see visions

nowehere does it say they Must be Christian
why do people insist on creating their own version to suit themself , when the words are so simple and easily read ?

luke 22:39Jesus went out as usual to the Mount of Olives, and his disciples followed him. 40On reaching the place, he said to them, "Pray that you will not fall into temptation." 41He withdrew about a stone's throw beyond them, knelt down and prayed, 42"Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done." 43An angel from heaven appeared to him and strengthened him. 44And being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground.[c]

how do christians think that the prophet jesus(PBUH) is God(they say that he and God are one) if they say he is son of God then he cant be God bec he do worship then how they worship the prophet jesus(PBUH)? do prophet jesus(PBUH) was worshipping himself?

Right now im searching for meaning and purpose. I know i can find meaning by making it here on earth:however, I will never be satisfied unless i no or believe in some guiding force, i.e god, or aptly named Intelligent design. The world we live in is full of evils, and sorrow, I want to know that I have lived for a reason, and that I will enter a plain in which i have eternal happiness. I have researched both the athiest points, and the creationist points. So far I have ascertained nothing. It's clear to me that this universe can exist by both reasoning. I do have a strong emotional desire to find the creator, and to know that it has my interest at heart. Since i have yet to be able to determine which side is truth, im wondering if any of you know a way to test for god. To see if it is real. Please answere as best you can.

I was wondering what the opinion was of Christians and indeed anybody else who believes in the human soul thinks of the implications of human cloning? Not just whether a clone would have a soul, but whether you believe a human clone should have the same basic rights as born human?

changed by man by being written and rewritten and improperly translated? How can you exercise any faith in God who created an entire universe and everything in it but can't see to it that His word would reach us as He wants it to? The Bible says He would write His Laws upon our hearts and in another place He would put it into theirs hearts to carry out His thoughts and do His will, but you believe He can make men write down His thoughts for us, why?

if they were a different religion than you or had no religious affiliation at all? Is there anyone here that inspires you to want to try their "way" for just a short while to see if you could comprehend what they believe and why?

Good morning, Salaam, Shalom, merry meet, etc.
