Religion & Spirituality - 7 March 2007

I just saw a video on Martin Luther King jr. and Malcom X.

Now, we all know that MLK jr was a Baptist Christian
We all also know that Malcom X was Muslim.

Now, what I have learned is that Muslims justify killing people that deny Allah. Also that they are violent.

In Christianity you are taught to spread love and such. Also to follow the ten commandments. Which include not stealing and not committing murder and adultry and such.

Now, consider this:

Martin Luther King jr believed in peaceful resistece. Non violent resistance.

Malcom X viewed the whites as the enemy and believed in violence against them and such.

Now, based on what i know about christians and muslims. Do you think there is a connection to the way they handled their civil rights campaigns?

1 Corinthians 13:4

The translation was switched from "charity" to love.
Charity is patient, charity is kind,.....

Why was it changed and was something lost in the translation?

What can be trusted?

What I mean is it that one man and women concieved in matramony should stay together as partners for life? Do you feel guilty when you lie? Do you comit murder? do you honer your parents? Do you treat others as you would want to be treated by them? Do you try to follow these commands, or are they imbread into your mind and soul? If so were do you believe these laws came from. Also, do you no the ten comandments were the foundation of the laws that we posses today.A lot of you call your self athiests yet you basicly live by the laws given by God. Do you feel bad when you break the law, maybe the Holy Spirit does dwell in you. If any of this relates to you why do you break Gods # 1 command. You shall have no other Gods beside me.You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind, and soul, and you shall love your neighbor as your self. Maybe you dont love your self.

That your suffering is brought on by yourself? God is not "punishing you." When you leave your homework at home, that is the consequence of your OWN actions, not God's punishment of you.

And if you were not of moral character but brought along your homework, then it will still be there.

That's just an example. During life, if you are intelligent, my theory is that you will NOT have any bumps in life.

I think atheists take the initiative more often. Theists just pray, hoping God will help them because they are morale. Atheists will actually do something instead of expecting it to fall right into their hands just because they are "good."

Do you people hate each other so much that if a man was injured in the street you would ask if they were Christian or Atheist before you chose to help them?

Only if you pay no attention to grammar and spelling. There is a special hell reserved for those who were given the divine gift of language and neglected it.

Will you just stay dead and be dust in a grave? Do you want to be like that?
Or will you live again? Jesus died on the cross so that we may live again like he did. He took the same route as someone who dies and went to the grave and rose from the dead. In john 3.16 it says

"For God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten son for whosoever believeth in Him shall not persih but have everlasting life."

No human can ever judge our hearts because whatever they think is absolutely wrong. Only God can judge us and see our hearts and see our true colors.
If you believe in Jesus and accept Him, He will grant you life! You don't have to stay dead in the dust!

For those of you who wonder why you want to live again...Why wouldn't you want to live again? Wouldn't you want to spend more time with your family and friends? Wouldn't you want to live where there exists no greed, no selfishness, no evil? You want proof...the bible...why is the most read/successful book ever?

Gen 1:7-8
And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.

If we look at this verse knowing what we know today through science it makes sense. Clouds are made of water vapor that has evaporated from the surface waters. So that is a separation of water on the earth and water in the sky... Bible's ahead so far.

Many have interpreted these verses to mean that the sky itself is made of water. That we have a dome of water over us.

That's just the problem with the Bible, it's very interpretable. I've only come to this conclusion because i know the science behind the water cycle. The authors of this book didn't know that stuff... Is that really what they meant?

Of course, we can't expect the book to be scientific. It does classify bats as birds.
