I celebrate Xmas and I'm an atheist, I but a tree and presents for friends and children to have a good time and a party to celebrate life.
Why do Christians celebrate Christmas on the 25th December when it has been found out from old scriptures that Jesus wasnt born on the 25th December but on the 29th or 30th of September. Arent Christians insulting the Son of God by not celebrating his true birthday and why havent they corrected this they have had 2000 years to do it.

Im an educated white christian american.

Is it really Muslims who we are against? Or is it a particular, nation/s.

Doesnt it seem like Muslims are the victim? Just because they fight back doesnt mean they are wrong, every country and people have the right to fight back

Islamic countries arent all in on it.

If you are country of buhddists, and a country called untitled 100% catholics declare war on you or you declare war on them, does that mean you are at war with catholosism? obviously not.

people are to gullable to media brainwashing, not educated enough and so narrow minded. I mean its all too obvious, its all about money and power, not about religion. They just use us, use the masses of people to thier advantage. Religion helps they do this. Its just a weapon

Homophobia is the unreasoning fear of, aversion to, or discrimination against homosexuality or homosexuals.[1] It can also mean hatred, hostility, or disapproval of homosexual people, sexual behavior, or cultures, and is generally used to insinuate bigotry.[2] The term homophobic means "prejudiced against homosexual people,"[3] and a person who is homophobic is a homophobe.

I have a crush on this guy and my friend says that I am not allowed to kiss him (on the cheek) until I am married or something. My other friend says go for it, but in an annoying way.

Is kissing a sin for Muslims? I am confused.

In my mind the fact that I am alive and typing this right now is evidence to support that God created us. If you believe in evolution, that's fine, there is a significant amount of evidence to support that. My problem is that something had to create the matter we evolved from, it seems to me like it couldn't just happen. I want to see some intelligent thoughts on this topic so I can see some other points of view. Thanks!

As a muslim myself, reading this gave me goose bumps.
Hadhrat Huzaifah (R.A.) says, Dajjal will be blind in his left eye. He will have very thick hair on his body and he will also have his own type of Jannat (Heaven) and Jahannam (Hell) with him: Although his Jannat will appear as Jannat, in reality it will be Jahannam and likewise though his Jahannam will appear to be Jahannam, in reality it will be Jannat.
(Hadith: Muslim)

Imraan bin Husain (R.A.) says Rasulullah (Salallahu Alayhi Wasallam) said: "Those who hear about Dajjal should stay far from him. By Allah! A person will approach him thinking him to be a Believer, but on seeing his amazing feats he will become his follower."

what do you see them as. i hear most christians say they see atheists as rebels and individuals who have no fear of god and are bad for going against god.

do you in a way envy atheists because they choose to break free from everything including god and live there lives EXACTLY how they want to?
