since begning of mankind, religion was introduced as an heavenly stuff, every religion claims to be modest and legitimate. then wars fought in the name of religion, humans butchered each other for religion, hatred developed in the name of religon. do you think this world would be more peaceful place if we subtract religion?

Pray that God would extend mercies to him and send a witness of the gospel to him and that he would believe and be forgiven before his death.

I am an atheist who thinks its never moral or necessary to murder an incarcerated human being. Why do so many religious people disagree with me?

Just because they are (to our knowledge) incapable of the level of deductive reasoning that humans are capable of, does this make them any less worthy of having souls?

If god is as benevolent as he claims to be, why wouldn't he give nonhuman animals souls?

Why?!

To my understanding, the body is an extension of the soul and the mind is the consious body of the soul. Thus, anything that is capable of thought and has a physical body, has a soul.

Now, do animals think? They obviously have a body, but do they think? Do humans think? In a scientific view, thoughts are a chemical reaction in the brain used to solve problems. Well, are animals capable of solving problems? Yes, they have to every day just to survive. So I would believe them capable of thought. Therefore, animals think.

"I think, therefore I am"

So why in the world do you think they don't have souls?!

Many devout Christians identify strongly with the Republican party. Based on the descriptions of him in the Bible, what would Jesus admire about the Republican platform?

"Several reports quoted senior Iraqi officials as saying the execution would take place at 0600 local time (0300 GMT) on Saturday."

"Saddam Hussein will be hooded with hands tied behind his back
Government and religious officials, a lawyer and a doctor will act as witnesses
The execution will be filmed to provide proof of his death
"

I bet all muslims will be upset at this. haha! :P

Throughout life I’ve been taught not to make assumptions. How is faith different than making a huge assumption?

Whenever you ask Christians about things like disasters, the death of innocent people, temptation, etc, their response is, "God gave us free will."

In other words, they are saying that what we do to ourselves, and this planet, is entirely up to us.

But at the same time, Christians also say that you can "pray" to god for things... resistance from temptation, recovery from illness, safety of a loved one in a disaster, and that sometimes (but not always) god will intervene.

So which is it? And how does it work? Is it how hard you pray? How often? How many pray together? Is it Luck? Chance? Your faith? Piousness?

For that matter... wouldn't it then be in our best interest to start to pray for a reduction in global warming right now? How about the national debt? Iraq? Bush growing a brain? Why don't the scientists all bow down and pray at mission control when the Space Shuttle approaches?

Should I pray to Taco Bell so my next burrito isn't tainted?

Jesus has paid the price that we could never pay so that we can have a personal relationship now with God and eternally in heaven. Most people I talk to say they have been good enough to get into heaven. have you been good enough and why do you think so?
