Religion & Spirituality - 2 January 2007

Muslims say they believe in "all the prophets" but more than one of the prophets claimed to be the last prophet (Jesus, Muhammad). In order to reconcile this contradiction, Muslims remake a castrated version of "jesus" and reshuffle the "final prophet" label.

Ok, fine, but why couldnt Allah still decide to send a new final Prophet?

"God cannot change his mind!!!" What? I thought there was nothing God could not do.

"God would never change his mind". I thought only God could know such a thing, are you God?

"its irrational for God to change his mind". Maybe, but whose to say for sure! Certainly none of us mere humans, right? Thus, you are playing God to claim God would never or could never do a thing.

So, if you are intelligent, and not a mere Islamic sheeple, you must at minumum be willing to admitt, that since God can do whatever he wants, he could certainly send us another pedophilic slave owning warlord prophet, although its not likely.

The christian devil is the one that everyone blames society's problems on. Yet, it seems that the Satanists take offense to this because they don't recognize the christian devil because it's the christian's evil guy.

So, why can't people own up to their faults and admit that sins are non-existent, that their natural actions are not to be punished by a spiritual pipe dream? Why do people try to pass the blame of their wrongdoings onto another invisible inaudible non-existent entity?

Another question... How is immaculate pregnancy possible? Or were women of the time blaming god for their pregnancy to stay out of trouble?

Would you bust out a classic line like, "By the power of Grey Skull!"
something people years down the road could appreciate...
or something lame like "Scuse me, coming through..."

Okay, like when the twin towers fell, everyone blamed God and stuff, and that led many people to desert Christianity. Why didn't those people blame someone else like Buddha or Mohomad or something else? So many people believe in other religions, yet always blame everything bad that happens to them is God's fault, even when it may be their own.

Also can anyone think of any potential problems Noah might have had getting all those animals into the Ark..two by two... and then starting a brave new World? Also did God not want to wipe out all the sea animals? A big Flood wouldn't have harmed them so that doesn't seem fair does it ? Hmmm I'm a bit confused...Help !

I am a Christian. I believe the Bible is Gods word. I am no better or worste than anyone else. But I have noticed that many other "Christians" are very, VERY judgemental, rude, and lacking in knowladge of the Bible or scientific fact. Do you realize how much this can hurt the Church of Christ? This only gives non-believers all the ammo they need to shoot down Christianity, and call us naive hypocrites. This is why the Bible tells us to be either hot or cold, not lukewarm, and Jesus himself said that the greatest thing for us to do is love, not prove we are right. Love is what allows the Holy Spirit to work through you, not your own intellect. Please, open your Bibles if you do not already do so and read through the New Testament. (again?) God bless all, and keep on praying for the Church as a whole.

If he cant, then he has no free will to chose, and is nothing more than Allah's (God's) torture robot.

If Satan does have free will, then he could decide to take a day off and not torture people, or make hell more exicting, and just turn it into one big party.

Actually, it makes more sense that Satan would make hell into a fun place for humans, because it was supposedly God who banished him, so why punish people, who like him, was banished from God? Wouldnt he feel more kinship with those banished to hell?

Certainly, if Satan is a greater being with intelligence and free will, he must be getting sick of torture all the time. In fact, if he was once "good", and still has free will, he could decide to be good again. If he couldnt, for whatever silly reason you dream up, then hes nothing more than a torture robot for God.

Why are they wasting their time telling people on Yahoo! Answers that there is no God instead of curing every form of cancer known to mankind?

"For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened."--Matthew 7:8.

Mark Twain said there are "upwards of a thousand lies" in the Bible. But this is probably the biggest. How many desperate, frightened, broken-hearted parents have watched their children die while begging God to help? Isn't this verse just a huge lie?


I got this question from the "Skeptic's Annotated Bible".

Pay attention to the use of the word "arrogance" in the Islamic world.

In the Muslim world, the word "arrogance" is tatooed on non-muslims similar to the way Nazis used to number jews. You see, the moment your called "arrogant" then you are essentially earmarked for death, its like a poor mans death fatwah.

Other religions also wield this hate-term with similar disdain, but dont have the doctrines of violence as a remedy against the unbeliever.

Heres the truth of it...anyone who doest accept their religion is arrogant. In their tiny little world, it all makes sense.

You see, Allah gave use an exact code to live by, because Allah is anal...he is very concerned with legalistic adherance to ritual and protocol. If you dont follow Allah's law, you are rejecting it, and what could be more arrogant that looking at Allah and rejecting his commands.

If you believe Islam is true, you must believe unbelievers are all arrogant and defy Allah. Feel the anger swelling inside?
