Religion & Spirituality - 16 February 2007

Already asked but i want to add more detail. Thank for your answers.
It has been said God is soverign overall: I have 3 points to make: 1) God intends for the human race to flourish and bring us the best 2) God is soverign overall 3) If God intends the best for us, and God is soverign overall, then at the end of the day when the curtain falls God will win. How can God truly have won if there are people in hell? Don't you agree at the end of it all God will have what he wants, and I'm sure what he wants is to be soverign overall. For him to be SOVERIGN OVER (not some) but ALL, people can't remain in hell at the end. Also how can we be happy in heaven if our loved ones are in hell, and if we lose our memories in heaven then why is christianity all about relationships and loving the ones on earth? It would be cruel to kill our relationships with our loved ones. God made us for relationships. Is there redemption in hell?
Let me finish writing everything please, thank you for your time.

If God is God, and He is
Then God is righteous and just. He does not make it easier or harder for people to be saved. The thief on the cross had a simple one statement of faith belief. "Remember me when you come into your kingdom." Jesus replied "This day you shall be with me in paradise." The thief did not say he was sorry, was not water baptized, the situation would not permit. But he was saved.

God wants people not to perish. Therefore salvation is simple and made to rely on Who and What Christ is, NOT ON WHO AND WHAT WE ARE. Christ's accomplishments and not our failures are the key issues, Agree?

Why doesn't god mention anywhere in the bible that the earth is spherical? Why does everyone in it seem to think that it is flat? Is there a reason got never enlightened people on this? Or is it just evidence that the people who wrote the bible believed the earth to be flat?

For example-

Isaiah 11:12
"And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the FOUR CORNERS OF THE EARTH."

Revelation 7:1
"And after these things I saw four angels standing on FOUR CORNERS OF THE EARTH, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree."

Job 38:13
"That it might take hold of the ENDS OF THE EARTH, that the wicked might be shaken out of it?"

Job 37:33
"He unleashes his lightning beneath the whole heaven and sends it to the ENDS OF THE EARTH."

Do you pray before answering questions?
Do you think we should?
I just thought of this and I have to admit I am guilty of not doing this. I wonder if we prayed before answering we could give calmer and more informative answers.

"But I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, the head of a woman is her husband, and the head of Christ is God. Any man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head, but any woman who prays or prophesies with her head unveiled dishonors her head--it is the same as if her head were shaven. For if a woman will not veil herself, then she should cut off her hair; but if it is disgraceful for a woman to be shorn or shaven, let her wear a veil. For a man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man. (For man was not made from woman, but woman from man. Neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.) That is why a woman ought to have a veil on her head, because of the angels."


1 Corinthians 11


I appreciate the polite answers :)

In 86:6-7 the Koran says, "man was created from ejected liquid- Proceeding from between the backbone and the ribs". This echoes the scientific error of Hippocrates who believed semen originates, from the brain down the spinal chord, before passing through the kidneys and finally out of the body.

Is this a scientifically accurate information?

Does Muslims believe this is the word / revelation of the supreme being who created the whole universe?


I asked this same questio three days back I wonder why did 'nt any muslims respond to the question.

One more

If Koran is true why does it say, the trinity is of Father, Virgin Mary and Jesus? While it is Father Son and Holy Spirit.

Koran 4 : 171, 5 : 73, 5 : 116.

Answer me. I'll show you more and more.

Okay, my husband and I have been over this many times and it always turns out the same. He believes in God, not just one specific religion, and I completely respect that. I on the other hand am Wiccan and would like to raise my future children on the Wiccan path. I understand that he wants them to make their own decisions, but I don't see how an infant can make that sort of decision. Every parent has the right to choose which religion their children practice. Bar-Mitzvahs, Christenings, and dragging them to church every week. Doing those things are an expression of the parent's chosen religion, so why should I be deprived the chance to share my religion with my child? I don't hold it against my husband for his choice of beliefs, but I think I deserve the same respect. I wish that I could get him to listen to me on the subject, but there's nothing I haven't already said to him. He says "Let them choose." I say "Give them options." What should I do?!?!?!

Here I've read over and over again accusations of being judgemental when it comes to religion.

My question is, why exactly are we not supposed to be judgemental?

Is not looking down on someone for being judgemental, being judgemental in itself?

When you have a child you punish them for disobeying. Is this being unjustly judgemental? Do they have a 'right to their opinion,' or do they deserve the punishment?

How is this different for adults?

And one might say that when we're grown, we should respect one another's opinions and not try to force anything on them.

But what if one believes that another is hurting himself?

Would it be judgemental to tell them that?

And would it be judgemental to tell the first person that they shouldn't judge?

i have always dismissed it as just me seeing things, but strangely enough, i saw alot of people claim to see the same things i do. Maybe a brain defect, maybe a eye defect, maybe a brain defect lets us see what is really there.
I dont know, but stranger things have happened.
