Would you give your life to Jesus Christ? because that's the issue, you just don't want to. But if you do have a genuine question, and you're actually looking for an answer, what is it?

when everyone knows it was created Hubbard just to make money and to prove how weak the human mind is?

Quoted from Wikipedia:

While the often-cited rumor that Hubbard made a bar bet with Robert A. Heinlein that he could start a cult is almost certainly false, others have claimed direct knowledge that during 1949 Hubbard did make statements to other people that starting a religion would be a good way to make money.

Writer and publisher Lloyd Arthur Eshbach, for example, reported Hubbard saying "I'd like to start a religion. That's where the money is." Writer Theodore Sturgeon reported that Hubbard made a similar statement at the Los Angeles Science Fantasy Society. Likewise, writer Sam Moskowitz reported in an affidavit that during an Eastern Science Fiction Association meeting, Hubbard had said "You don't get rich writing science fiction. If you want to get rich, you start a religion."

What do you think?

Are there specific stumbling blocks or do you just discount the very idea that Christ’s life, death & resurrection has relevance in your life?

The New Testament goes much farther than merely distinguishing and separating the two. In John 17 Jesus, in prayer to his Father, refers to him as "the only true God" (John 17:3. In John 20:17 the resurrected Jesus refers to his Father as " my Father, and your Father; and... my God, and your God." In I Corinthians 8:6 the Apostle Paul says of Christians, " to us [there is but] one God, the Father..." In I Timothy 2:5 Paul states, "For [there is] one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus." In Ephesians 1:17 Paul refers to the Father as " the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory." And in Revelation 3:12 the resurrected and glorified Jesus says, "Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, [which is] new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and [I will write upon him] my new name."

I'm curious what the major differences between the Catholic and Presbyterian demonations are. Why do Catholics worship statues, why do Catholics put tradition on the same level as scripture? Why don't Presbyterians' kneel and genuflect in church?

Christian? I sure know that if I didn't have my common sense and the higher faculties of compassion, understanding and love, which human beings have in order to make decisions for themselves, I'd sure be lonely, empty and afraid, too. How can they kneel and worship in front of a robed man waving his hands all around and pronouncing the fate of mankind as IF he were God himself, who is positioned in front of the Image of the Crucified Body of Christ.

How Christians cannot see the blasphemy that is their own church is beyond my understanding.

How does the bible account for the different races? Is skin tone the one part of evolution that religious people have to beleive?

2007-02-15 09:24:31 · 10 answers · asked by Woody 2

Isnt believing your religion is the only truth and is without a doubt superior to all other religions equivalent to a rascist saying his/her ethnicity is the true race and is superior to all the others? Im not saying they are equivalent in evil, rather the natural dogmatic state of mind people have when they believe their opinions are absolute truth eventhough it may be flawed. Cant people see playing one side is always dogmatic and encourages competition which may lead to pity or hate?

Our Islamic friend copied a really nice thread of which 90% of the material cut and pasted had some good substance. See the link if you are interested:

If the Christian God and Allah are the same "god", why bring us two completed different paths to eternal life?

The Qur'an says that Christ was a prophet of God. If His testimony is valid in the Muslim's eyes, then how can they accept both the Qur'an and the Bible simultaneously? The two doctrines do not match. Yes, there are some moral values that can be intertwined, but in general the two paths are parellel to each other.

I would prefer this question to be answered by those who can accurately defend this argument, because at present, I cannot see a coorelation between the two, although they are seemingly defended as such.
