" He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed..."

That's why the Holy Bible is so confusing. It is translated in so many different ways. What are you to believe? Are you so wise that you can choose the correct translation? xx

I'm interested in a religious viewpoint, but I would like to hear the reasoning backed up by some sort of proof BEYOND the Bible. How is homosexuality logically, philosophically, or morally wrong?

Since the bible tells us that God took a rib from Adam and used it to make Eve, do men have 1 less rib on one side now?

I personally think that to not believe in God you need way more faith than to actually believe in God. I mean, look around. Everything on this earth and even outside of this earth is so precisely designed that there HAS to be a Creator.

my whole life i have been teached that Jessus is the Massiah. so since when Islam reject that Jesus is the Massiah in fact it's in
the holy Book and since when islam reject Jesus doctrine in fact that we Muslims study and read his holy story in are holy book
and extract the lessons and maxims from it, beeng not christian don't make us a bunch of people who hate Jesus (p.b.u.h).

Say the innocent Iraqis who are killed every day, the heroes of 9/11, or our soldiers fighting over there.

If an insane man walks up to you and blows you up, do you go to hell with the bomber unless you accept Jesus as your Lord?

are fine with people who choose to "better" themselves by taking up martial arts?

Let me preface this by saying I have been called a robot and told I have no mind of my own because I'm a Christian, that I am merely a "blind follower."

So why do I compare Christianity to martial arts? Because the requirements are basically the same. One must submit his or her will to the "master." One must study to show him/herself approved. One must follow a set of rules in an effort to learn and improve. One must obey his/her master to learn the set of skills needed to achieve the desired goal. One must treat the "master" with respect.

Why is it so widely accepted that people will "demean" themselves in this way for the sake of learning a martial art but refuse to do it for God, creator of all, who has the ability not only to save his/her body but soul as well?

That doesn't make any sense at all to me.

Your thoughts?

Why is it that whenever I ask to chat with someone about their faith or religion, they always assume there will be a debate? They begin defending themselves and their beliefs before I even have the chance to tell them why I asked. They automatically assume that I asked because I want to alter their religion affiliations or beliefs, when all I really want to do is learn about their religion.

So, in your opinion, why do you think "believers" begin defending themselves and their religion, even when there is no one counter-acting them?


... Maybe I've just been talking to the wrong people....

I am writing a reilgion paper which is dealing with the methods of judgement used by the Prophet Amos but I am having trouble finding the information. So I wanted to open up my options and see if there is anything else I could do research on. Does anyone have any good ideas research topics on the prophets in the old testament?

PAST OR FUTURE LIFE, DO YOU THINK THAT WE AS PEOPLE HAVE MULTIPLE LIFES THAT SORT OF RECYCLE THERE WAY TO A WHOLE NEW BEING

I was on this radio talk show and this Doctor tori guy was saying some very true specific things about my life and all the info he was giving was my birthday. He had asked if I had neck problems and I do in fact my neck is noticeable kinked so I appear to be sticking my head out sometimes. Anyway he told me in my past life I was hanged because I used to be a witch...lol sounds a little far fetched but it got me thinking...

ANY OPINIONS ON ANYTHING I MENTION WILL EARN YOU POINTS

Beside Judaism, Islam and Hinduism, Christianity in its tradition and practice is loaded with contempt for women.
I don't understand how any woman can subscribe to that and still keep a modicum of self-respect.
