Proverbs 27:15-16

15-16 A nagging spouse is like
the drip, drip, drip of a leaky faucet;
You can't turn it off,
and you can't get away from it.

قانون الايمان
با لحقيقة أؤمـن بإله واحد، آب ضابط الكل خـالق السماء والأرض, ما يرى وما لا ي وبرب واحد يسوع المسيح, ابن الله الوحيد, المولود من الآب قـبل كل الدهور, نور من نور, إله حق من إله حق, مولود غـير مخلوق, واحـد مع الآب فى الجوهـر, الذى به كان كل شئ, الذى من أجلنا نحن البشر ومن أجل خلاصنا نزل من السماء, وتجسّد من الروح القـدس ومن مريم العـذراء, وتأنّس, وصُلِب عـنّا عـلى عهد بيلاطس البنطى, وتألّم, وقُـبر, وقام من بين الأموات فى اليوم الثالث كما فى الكتب, وصعد إلى السماوات وجلس عن يمين الآب, وأيضًا يأتى فى مجده ليدين الأحياء والأموات, الذى ليس لملكه إنقضاء, نعم أؤمن بالروح القدس, الرب المحيى, المنبثق من الآب قبل كل الدهور, نسجد له ونمجده مع الآب والابن, الناطق فى الأنبياء, وبكنيسة واحدة, مقدسة, جامعة, رسولية, واعترف بمعمودية واحدة لمغفرة الخطايا وأنتظر قيامة الأموات وحياة الدهر الآتى

Christians believe the new testament supersedes the old testament and Jew believe that the Torah is the absolute Law, wit the rest of the Old Testament describing the history of Judaism after the Israelites cross the jordan river. Judaism believes that the New Testament holds no validity whatsoever. however, since many parts of the New testament contradict the Torah and it's Laws, and if following these Laws is the most important part of Judaism, doesn't this present a paradox if you claim to believe in both the New and Old Testaments and also claim to be some sort of Jewish Christian.

First, I asked Mormons to explain the claim of a steel sword 2000 years before they were invented.

I don't expect anyone to be an expert at metallurgy, but I do expect religionists to set a standard for honesty. All claims made by us are subject to scrutiny, and if we're going to try to encourage others to change their lives according to our beliefs, we owe them truth, not fraud.

Here's my second question for Mormons:

Why does I Nephi 16:18 claim the existence of a "fine steel bow" in 600 BC, again centuries before the technology existed?

"And it came to pass that, as I, Nephi, went forth to slay food, behold, I did break my bow, which was made of fine steel..."

Don't bows have to be flexible to work? Are we talking about piano wire here, or was the body of the bow made of steel?

I mean come on what are you going to do with (literally) all the time in the world. God has to have some hobbies or something to do with all that free time.

who do not believe or love God. There are those times I have found nonbelievers to be wiser and gentle in their approach. So a good heart and a good person is not dependent on loving God. Would believers agree?
(I still love God and believe) I just think we sometimes forget we are not so special.

1) What difference does it make if you (anyone) lives or dies.
2) Why does nature (evolution) tend torwards life (does it?)

To sum it up... what's your (everyone's) purpose; if not just being a part of "nature"...you know, for the heck of it?

I believe in God!

I dont understand why the building is so closed off. If it holds religious information why is it not open to everyone? I think that makes it kind of suspicious ( for lack of a better word). I dont pretend to know alot about catholics? PLease explain!

I've given this a lot of thought - I'd like people to put forward their own views from their religious viewpoints.

Firstly, if a person does good acts but does not believe in whichever religion is 'correct' do they deserve heaven?

Secondly - If a person does good works to secure a place into heaven, are they just sucking up to the big security camera in the sky? If we have a glorious afterlife waiting for us, why not kill ourselves now?

Are heaven and hell just propaganda to scare us into obedience? Most fun things are sinful; it'd be hypocrisy to allow them in Heaven, so are we just freed of all pain and need, smiling, doing nothing, for all eternity? Why should hell be so bad? It'd spite God to make it fun, surely that's what demons want?

Do we reincarnate?

Is it all just scare tactics, or is there something more?

I respectfully ask nobody says that I'm going to hell for daring to question/deny, and I'd also like nobody to say all religious people are stupid.

when atheists mock christians, they're using (or abusing???) they're freedoms and its apparently ok to do so,
but when christians want to read their bibles in highschools or call atheists retards (some of them totally are), they're almost sued...
anything wrong with that picture? where are the christian freedoms?
