Christians dont bang on your doors and try to enter your home uninvited shoving bibles in your face. (Mormons and Jehovah's wittnesses do) Christian preists dont molest kids then have the church cover it up.(Catholics do) Christians dont take hostages or murder people just because you dont agree with their beliefs.(That is islam) Christians do try to convince people to believe what they believe, sometimes too agressivly but so does everyother religion and atheist try to convince people to their beliefs.(or lack of). Also those of you that keep saying the christians used to kill people for not believing hundreds of years ago, your WRONG!!!!! The catholics killed and tortured christians for being christians.

(Ok, to anyone involved in any group mentioned above: I in no way intend to group all of you into that catagory. I no not all are this way but we all no it happens. If your not like that then please dont get offended. So why only blame christians?

I look at this article, and it speaks to my heart. If god is real, then i feel that he would not punish his loved ones, like some would have you believe. Take a look at this article, and see if you concur.

I want to know if its true, why Bin Laden and Al Qaida leaders won't go for the suicide missions by themselves so as to go to heaven and have the so-called virgins up there, instead of sending innocent brain-washed people. Or do they prefer hiding in Pakistan caves and bushes to going to heaven and having the reserved so-called virgins?

We have 6,550,000,000 people. Thats alot. But if the earth is really even 1 million years old TAKING INTO ACCOUNT death, famine, disease, lack of cities, starvation, murder, wars and genocide the earth should have

10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 times 1000.

Thats ALOT of missing people!! Where are they? Nothing can account for it other than a YOUNGER earth.

Today, we're taught that humans evolved about 2 million years ago. Then why are there only 6 billion people in the world? In the year 2000, the world's population topped 6 billion. In 1985, it passed 5 billion. In 1977, it topped 4 billion. In 1962, it passed 3 billion. In 1930, the world's population was approximately 2 billion. In 1800, it was approximately 1 billion. Based on ancient census data, scholars estimate the world's population was about 1/4 billion at the time of Christ (1 AD). The Flood was approximately 4,400 years ago, with 8 human survivors. If we follow the population growth curve, we see that the world's human population could have come from 4 couples 4,400 years ago. It seems the human population growth rate is about 2% per year. Well, what about all of the wars, famines, plagues, etc? Take the Black Plague for example. It killed off 1/3 of Europe's entire population. Yet, in less than 100 years, the population bounced back and surpassed the original population. This is because the infrastructure was already established. The world's population took a dive during World War II, but immediately came back with the baby boomers. After a great loss, there is always a massive boom. The bottom line is this: if humans have been around for 1 million years (half of the 2 million presupposed by evolutionists), according to the current growth rate, the world's human population should be 10^8600. That's a 10 with 8,600 zeros after it!

I was being sarcastic. There's obviously no way in hell that all these civilizations could have 'attacked' Muslims. I was exposing the logical fallacies in the Muslim explanation of Islamic conquests made in imaginary self-defense, and how that mentality persists today.

080.001 (The Prophet) frowned and turned away,

080.002 Because there came to him the blind man (interrupting).

080.003 But what could tell thee but that perchance he might grow (in spiritual understanding)?-

080.004 Or that he might receive admonition, and the teaching might profit him?

080.005 As to one who regards Himself as self-sufficient,

080.006 To him dost thou attend;

080.007 Though it is no blame on thee if he grow not (in spiritual understanding).

080.008 But as to him who came to thee striving earnestly,

080.009 And with fear (in his heart),

080.010 Of him wast thou unmindful.

I read a lot on here about free will, and " I'm in control of my destiny" etc....but do we really? at all?
I talked earlier to a genocide survivor. His classmates were all burned alive years ago and he was the only survivor ( he's got the scars to prove it). Now, those kids all had dreams, most believed in God, some were bad, some were good basically they were just like you and me ( they just happened to belong to the wrong group).
What sense does it make at all? What's the point? I ( or you) could step outside and be run over by a car...How can anybody say they're in control of anything?? If God is in control, what did they ever do to him?

we told you in the bible that we would send the Devil to do our dirty work, so when you have natural disasters and killings these are your warning signs. so stop moaning to God when you feel we have let you down.
stop global warming and there will not be another Tsunami, stop making Gun and you wont have any Psycho's going in schools shooting people.

Why is it that Catholics truly believe they have carte blanc when it comes to sex, lies and plagerisim?? I have yet to meet a catholic that wasn't some sort of hypocrate.
I was raised Catholic and when I was old enough to choose for myself I became Wiccan. Most Family members who have crossed over ; always questioned their faith when the end was near, and if He was truly out there.
I'm hoping you have an intelligent answer and not some religious reteric

Does anyone know any good websites where you can just discuss new age ideas or learn about some new interesting concepts, I wish this section was split up into 'religion' and 'spirituality' so it would be easier to scroll through.

"I am well aware that scarcely a single point is discussed in this volume on which facts cannot be adduced, often apparently leading to conclusions directly opposite to those at which I have arrived". Charles Darwin
Back in college I was a science major. So in my studies I explored Darwin's teachings. But the more I read the more I realized that he speculated an awful lot. In my several readings of Darwin's "one long argument", I noticed that he freely admitted that his case was not supportable by even one real live visible test case of evolutionary transformation of one species into another.
When Darwin wrote, near the end of his life, that "Not one change of species into another is on record ... We cannot prove that a single species has changed into another". So, Darwin chose to believe that one species could change into another in spite of his facts that all his live visible evidence was against it.
DARWIN WAS RIGHT to know that "I AM QUITE CONSCIOUS THAT MY SPECULATIONS RUN QUITE BEYOND THE BOUNDS OF TRUE SCIENCE".

I just read answers from religious fanatics to the effect that evolution is a hoax because it contradicts the Bible. Science is an intellectual disciple by which fact is established on the basis of observation, experiment, and logic, building upon the foundation of that which has already been established as fact. Science accepts nothing on faith, so to invoke the Bible as scientific proof makes a mockery of both religion and science. Those who cannot abide by the scientific method for discovering fact have no credibility declaring evolution a hoax, and so appear to be buffoons.

Oh, right, you want a question to answer. OK, how is it that such buffoons are actually awarded diplomas? Does that not compromise the value of all diplomas awarded by institutions which award diplomas to buffoons?

We all worship the same God, the God of Abraham, Ishmeal, Issac, and Jacob. Sure we have some differences between us but the basics are the same. Don't lie. Don't steal, Respect your mother and father, etc. So doesn't it make sense that whatever good we do just for God we will be rewarded for and whatever bad we do against God we will be punished for, except by the mercy of God himself. So why do people believe that everyone who does not follow their exact religious practices will go straight to hell? What do you think?
