He was raised Catholic, yes, but abandoned the faith like many Western atheists. Listen to these quotes from Secret Conversation with Hitler.
"One can be a German or a Christian not both"
"Christianity is an invention of the Jew" (probably not a compliment)
"THe ultimate goal is to replace every cross with a swastika and every Bible with a Mein Kampf"
He had an odd way of showing his faith i guess. Not to mention slaughtering the Christian God's chosen people (Jews) and oppressing the devout Christians.

Or is it a way to try and create your own following to satisfy your own cravings for fame, fortune,or something more sinister. If you keep at it long enough, will you collect enough sycophants for your own on line sect?

Isn't the title just by itself a boast of their superiority to other Christian sects? No one is qualified to make such a judgement because being "chosen" is entirely part of God's decision and grace and not something you can determine or earn through your own efforts and works, however right you think they are.

John 20:17, RS: “Jesus said to her [Mary Magdalene], ‘Do not hold me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brethren and say to them, I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’”

If you worked a minimum wage job and had a family that was struggling and hungry, would you still pay tithing out of your small check or would you use all your necessary funds to make sure your children ate?


The reason that I am asking is because there was a woman in my town who recently lost custody of her 4 grandchildren because they were severely malnourished and she couldn't afford to feed them all everyday on her small social security check, because she had to give her 15 percent for tithing. So, she made them take turns. She would feed one of them one day, a different one the next way, and so on.

Jesus did make God's name known. Jesus is called the faithful and true witness in the Book of Revelation. Did Isa 43:10 apply to Jesus? Jesus was from the tribe of Judah. Jesus himself said he was sent by his Father. And what he taught was from his Father. Jesus said the Father is greater than I am. Jesus was appointed by God to be King of the kingdom. What are your thoughts?

Do you think that if the Democrats pass a Hate Crimes Bill that they will make it illegal for pastors to speak on the sinfulness of homosexuality?

There is a story in Islamic history books about prophet Muhammed who sent one of his companions (Muhammad Ibn Muslima) along with two other Muslims to ASSASSINATE one of prophet Muhammad's enemies (his name was Ka'ab Ibn Al Ashraf), who happened to be half brother of the assassin (Muhammad Ibn Muslima). When the assassins went to teh victim, they called him out of his home and when he answered them they started talking together until they made sure he had no suspicion and then they KILLED HIM, cut his head off and brought it back to prophet Muahmmad who praised them.

(1) Is it allowed in Islam to assassinate non-suspecting persons?

(2) Is it allowed to kill your own brother if he does not share your faith?

that by believing in Jesus you will be saved from death? I'm Catholic. I believe in Jesus, the only begotten Son of God, the 2nd divine Person of the Holy Trinity, our Redeemer & Saviour, the Messiah..... When I die, I die. I will experience death some day. My lungs will stop breathing & my heart will stop beating. It's my soul that will meet Jesus for the first judgment. When Jesus comes to earth again, He will raise all of the dead. New skin and tissues will form on our bones. Our souls will reunite with our new physical bodies. Jesus will lock up Satan in hell for 1000 yrs. Evil doers will go to hell and the righteous ones will live on earth with Jesus Christ. This is the Final Judgment. After the 1000 yrs, Jesus will let Satan out and Jesus will take the righteous, body and soul, to Heaven with Him forever.

I've read here that u believe that u will never die but will always live. It's your soul that lives forever. Not your body. It dies for a time. What type of Christian r u?

Religous leaders often say if you ask for gods help he will reply "Yes,No,Maybe". So I tried it however I asked "Please let Liverpool beat Arsenal", they didnt so that must have been a "No". I asked "Plese Let my Marriage Certificate be ready for Collection before the 28th" , it was supposed to be ready on the 30th. The next day I got a call to go and collect it on he 26th that is unheard of in Vietnam they are very strict on their dates so I have taken this to be a "Yes". I also asked for the thing we all use and need and I have very lttle of but I asked anyway "Please let a large payment go into my bank account or let me win a large prize" this hasnt happened yet so I am taking itas a "maybe".
Heres the thing I asked these three questions to a carton of milk and they where the results.

It doesn't have to be all three of them but one of them.
because some people here argu about something that they have no idea or clue about. if you haven't read any of those completely , stop asking questions that you think you know but you don't and stop answering questions that you don't know?

I just had a baby, and already my mother-in-law is trying to talk me into raising the baby in her religion. Problem is, she knows that I already have a religion and it's almost completely opposite hers. One day she even came through my front door, without knocking and completely unannounced, with the pastor from her church to try to talk me into it as well. She's otherwise a very sweet person, and a great grandmother. But if I just come out and tell her my beliefs and how I want to raise my son, I know she would freak out and be really mad. I've tried politely telling her, but she pretends she didn't hear me and keeps on trying. My husband says he doesn't care what religion our son grows up with. In fact, when his mother was raising him she didn't raise him on these beliefs she's trying to force on my son. He also won't tell her how he feels, he just sits quietly and says nothing, which makes her think I'm forcing him on "my side". And I'm really not! What do I do?!?

Does anyone ever notice that the ONLY religion that people attack is Jehovah's Witnesses? Everyone's always out to prove they're teachings are false, yet there's tons of religions out there (and they can't all be true) and you never see hate wesites for baptists, or hindu's, or Catholic (even though we've heard tons of true bad things about catholic's on the news) it's just the whole world against the Witnesses. Just like most of the world was against Jesus when he came to earth and wouldn't believe what he said. Then they all found out that he was the true son of God when he died and the earth shook and so on. Everyone swears up and down that the witnesses are not right but most, if not all of the remarks people make to say the Witnesses sound bad, are not true. I've never heard someone put down Jehovah's Witnesses and actually make a true statement. It's all made up "facts" off the top of their head trying to sound smart when they have no clue what the Witnesses actually believe.
