My frnd said to me one day, "You think we killed your Saviour, don't you?" How do we explain that, yes, we believe it was Jewish ppl who led to the crucifiction of Christ, but if he hadnt died we wouldn't be saved? So we don't blame the Jews. Jesus was a Jew.

I am a budding writer. I started writing about a story idea that seemed very promising then got totally and completely stuck. My story is a satire about a near future academy which –thanks to a revolutionary surveillance technology-is capable of studying sentient civilizations on distant planets. I created 3 interesting characters(religious female scholar, haughty male scientist, creative male pacifist with whole the religious scholar is in love) and I described the academy, the technology, a few interesting lessons gained from studying other civs, and then I'm out of fuel, unable to invent the struggle necessary to keep all stories interesting. Do you have any suggestions to keep my story going on?Some spice, some struggle or problem that needs to be resolved and gets the reader involved?

I'm indebted to an answerer on another question for inspiring this question. She described Armageddon as being Biblically defined as "the war of God against unrighteous humans".

Now, the theory runs that God created the universe, therefore what he says goes. But if I have a kid, and he turns into a teenager and says he hates me and wishes he'd never been born and steals from me and spits at me, yada yada yada, does that give me the right to kill the kid? I'd submit that it doesn't. So why should God have the right to wage a war on "lesser" beings like us? Can we not establish some sort of Deities Council to establish what He can and cannot do to us without having His weapons of mass destruction taken away? We all know what the rights of man are. But what are the rights of God?

If God is the loving & just being that they believe in, do they really think that He would find it fair to punnish the unrepentant over an eternity, for the sins committed in a relatively short period of time? I don't think an eternity for a lifespan is quite the same as an eye for an eye...

God has been playing favorites for a long time now, in fact I was told by God just the other day that I'm one of them (Thanks God, I love You too! )!!!! Why does this bother People, is it because I'm undeserving and behave so terribly? Hey, I've got God personally watchiing my back; why shoudn't I take advantage of this divine intervention in my life?

In other words, does man first decide, "I want to get saved," or does God go, "I want this person to get saved,"?

if not....
Why only with God you seek evidence?

It is already known to every one that we are finite beings and our understandings also limitted but God is infinite being, so it is hard for human to prove it.
