Quite a few people have spoken out against the Harry Potter stories and that's fair enough. After all it's a story about kids in a sorcery school but here's the rub: I don't hear the same criticism against
The Lord of the Rings which has good and bad wizards or
Star Wars which has good and bad wizards called Jedi or
The Wizard of Oz which has good and bad witches or
Superman who has x-ray vision

The list goes on. Fiction is full of characters with supernatural powers. If you disapprove of Harry Potter do you also disapprove of those other stories?

I have had a thought over the past few days and it keeps re-occurring to me, that if I keep on debating religion I will have eventually wasted a great deal of my life over religion. What are your thoughts on this?

I've read from several sites and commentaries that it is basically without a doubt the same as it has always been. What proof is there of this, that archaeologists and historians are fooled, but Muslims are not fooled.

Isn't it simply because the Christians were brought up to believe that the Bible was true?

Don't give me examples of Muslims converting to Christianity. I'm sure it happens, but it rarely does. People generally belong to the religion they were raised in. The fact that you follow whatever religion you were raised to be should be evidence enough that they are all lies.

Is it true that Catholics don't believe in birth control of any kind? If so, do you view this as a sin and why?

you know the story of David and Goliath, right? it states that Goliath was a extremely tall man. how did he get so tall (other than that's how God made him)? cuz if you think about it, it doesn't say that Goliath's mother was extrememly tall. so he must have been born the same size as us.

This is one of the most interesting and honest Christian testimonies I have ever read. I'd love to know both Christian and non-Christian reactions to this. Take a few minutes and read it, please, and then give your honest opinion.

I believe in god and do not doubt what i believe in. I did not down the athiest for what they believe in but simply wanted to ask their opinion on how they believe things are created. I have researched it and I have learned it in school but I just wanted to get the perspective of a real athiest not just a book. why is it that almost everyone who answered my question were rude when i never downed what they believe in or said that it was wrong to believe in it

Seriously. It has it's temples and it's doctrine. It has it's saints: Newton, Boyle, Darwin, Einstein. It has it's commandments: Thou shalt not assume without evidence, Thou shalt make no untestable prediction. It has it's devotees and it's zealots - over 6 billion followers worldwide, of varying degrees of faithfulness. And it provides answers, if you seek them.
What exactly does a religion need that science doesn't offer?

Don’t associate with non-Christians. Don’t receive them into your house or even exchange greeting with them. 2 John 1:10

Shun those who disagree with your religious views. Romans 16:17

Paul, knowing that their faith would crumble if subjected to free and critical inquiry, tells his followers to avoid philosophy. Colossians 2:8

Would you agree that every individual is responsible for every bad things that are taking place in the world at the moment?

Here is an example from a book that would help you to understand better (If your a believer of hindu religion then you should be able to understand):

"In the modern setup of democratic states the citizens can have no cause for grievances, because the whole administration is conducted by people themselves.

If the people themselves are dishonest, the administrative machinery must be corrupt.

Although a damned government of the people may be given a good or fancy name, if the people are not good they cannot have good government, regardless of which party governs the administration. There good character in the consciousness of the mass of people is the first principle necessary for a good government" (Light of the Bhagavata).

Are there any personal hygiene practices for your religion that you feel are different than what's normally provided in a health care setting? (What sort of things do doctors, nurses, and support staff need to know to make sure to provide health care that doesn't violate any of your religious beliefs?)

I got baptised at a young age. I grew up in church. I am 18, and i have been recently been praying prayers like "Jesus, please save me from hell" "Pleae, be my Lord and Savior"...like i seem to be worried about going there. Jesus said not everyone who says to me lord, lord shall enter the kingdom of heaven. and He also said wide is the path that leads to destruction, narrow is the road that leads to life and only a few find it. Is getting saved more than just accepting Christ as your Savior?
