The Dali Lama is one of the worlds greatest champions of Peace and Love. However, he does not accept Jesus as his savior and does not follow the teaches of the Bible.

Therefore if you follow the bible and the teachings of Jesus, you must believe that a man like the Dali Lama is going to burn in hell for eternity, and he is someone that needs to be "Saved".

This does not seem right to me. What about you?

And He answered and said, "Have you not read that He who created them from the beginning MADE THEM MALE AND FEMALE,and said, 'FOR THIS REASON A MAN SHALL LEAVE HIS FATHER AND MOTHER AND BE JOINED TO HIS WIFE, AND THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE FLESH '?
"So they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate."
They said to Him, "Why then did Moses command to GIVE HER A CERTIFICATE OF DIVORCE AND SEND her AWAY?"
He said to them, "Because of your hardness of heart Moses permitted you to divorce your wives; but from the beginning it has not been this way.
(Matthew 19:4-8)

Considering some "sexist" thing you might read about in Deu.,such as the punishment for rape and the procedure for marrying a captive woman, do you think they were "sexist" or just allowances because men's hearts were hard?

but then turn around murder 50 people, feel sorry for what they did and be able to be forgiven cause "god" sees sin equally?

maybe people like this thinking cause subconsiously it satisfies both a life of grime and being saved to a wonderful place at the same time

I really want to be a real christian. But I don't know the way. And also, the environment around me is not favorable to be a real christian. Corrupted world besieges me.

I am referring mostly to the fights between shiites and sunnis. I think the Sunnis who are followers of prophet muhammed (saw) are more violent in terms of their fights against shittes.
As far as I know our prophet did not like violence among muslims to brew nor did he like violence against even non muslims.....
I don't know what has happened to our brothers who seem to be just like animals who kill each other. It's a shame on the rest of the peace loving muslims of this world. Can anyone explain me whether this is a phenomenon from the days of our prophet or has it begun recently? Did prophet muhammed inflict violence on the shiite muslims? pls any enlightened person out there?

I have been reading about Mother Teresa and a number of people quote her on only caring to convert the dying to the Catholic faith. I also read that she recieved a number of donations and did not spend them to help the poor as people once thought. I think she is a fraud and people should be recognized for who they really are.

Maybe it is good for manipulating large groups of gullible people, or justifiying slavery and ill-treatment of women.

there are many people who believe in heaven and the after life
and they say only good people go there.
and they also hate each other.
which means at least some are bad.
so what if they find the bad ones in heaven?

and my teacher whos also a priest said something about all sins being equal or something like that. therefore there wouldnt be punishment but only begging for forgiveness. so my question is how could this possibly work when you will always have people who either dont believe or have mental problems who kill people? they would just keep killing

Do you think a person can live a fulfilled life and never have complete faith in anyone?

It's a miracle! God completely lifted HIV/AIDS from my mind body and soul. It's a true miracle! Through faith, prayer, and discipline, I am healed. Am I the only one in the world? God tells me that Oprah Winfrey, Joyce Meyer, Alicia Keys, and Brittney Spears have the resources to put me in Africa to perform healings on the billibons that suffer from this plague.

I believe this is the teaching of some religions. If this is true than a child born in a country that mainly practices non christian beliefs, could die before ever hearing the word Jesus.

So some christian religions teach that this child will burn in hell for enturity..... Seems odd.... doesn't it.

I believe that that the hypothesis of evolution is nothing more than a religious belief. Proponents of the theory of evolution would do well to admit that they believe in evolution, but they do not know that it happened the way they teach. They should call evolution their "faith" or "religion," and stop including it in books of science.

Neither creation or evolution can be proven. Both involve a great deal of faith in the unseen. So my next logical question is: “Why do I have to pay for the evolution religion to be taught to all the students in the tax supported school system?” Since all taxpayers are being forced to pay for evolution to be taught exclusively in public schools and evolutionists have had the last 130 years and billions of dollars in research grants to prove their religion, the burden of proof is on them to supply proof of their theory.
