I keep hearing how our legal system is based on the 10 Commandments. So, what punishments would you advocate for;

1. Worshiping a non-Judea Christian God?
2. Making a idol?
3. Swearing, using god and Jesus Christ as profanity?
4. Working on Sundays?
5. Not honoring parents?
6. Playing hide the salami with a married woman?
7. Buying a bigger plasma TV because your neighbor bought one?
8. Telling a lie?

9. Do you really think these would make good foundational laws? We're looking at eight out of the ten here folks.

I’d really like to hear Christians weigh in on this one.

Really, what is your valid reason? i don't want any bad language or racism or that sort of brainless crap.
Islam believes in one G-d, the same G-d as you whether he's called Y-H-V-H (Jehovah) or Allah or any other name, he's the same.
Islam believes in the Prophets, Abraham, Moses, Jacob (Israel), Isaac, Ismael etc (PBUT)
Islam shares very similar laws of conduct as we acknowledge the laws of Moses and the other Prophets and Prophet Muhammed (SAW) confirmed them.
We believe in angels and in life after death.
We believe in the holy books, the Tanakh (Toraht) and the Psalms (zaboor).

We believe in all this and more, so what are you missing? What is your reason and what would you like to know more about? If you are waiting for an invitation, then I am openly putting my hand out towards you. Welcome brother!

(I'm turning the tables on a question I asked before to see the response).

According to the Bible, Jesus performed miracles all the time, which were witnessed first hand by his followers. They even saw him come back from the dead. They had proof of his divinity, not faith! Why should I settle for less?

This is only for those who believe heaven will be a physical place where people will live in physical bodies together with others also in their physical selves.
1. If a widow remarries and all three/four of them go to heaven how does this work out there logistically?
2. What are the ages of the bodies of people of different generations? eg. on earth,great- grandma died at 13, grandpa & grandma died at, say, 18 and 80, dad at 50, and children at negative 0.5 (miscarried), 10, and 100. When they meet each other in heaven how old will their physical bodies be, and will they age or be frozen in age?
3. Will physical/mental characteristics of the earthly body stay or change - short/tall, thin/obese, autistic/mentally handicapped; will Helen Keller, if in heaven, see and hear? Will the result of an undesired earthly mastectomy remain or that of a desired circumcision?

Karl Stern, a German Jew who became Catholic, who wrote Pillar of Fire,said he talked with a young Nazi in Germany before WWII. He said the Nazis wanted to get rid of the Jews as they felt they were a witness to Christianity. He said the Nazis felt that the strange desert religion, Christianity, that taught love and forgiveness had emasculated the Teutonic people.
Ludendorf, Hindenburg's adjutant during WWI, became a Nazi. He and his following lit fires and sacrificed to the Teutonic Gods.
The operas of Richard Wagner glorified Germany's Teutonic past and reveled in the sacrifice tothe Teutonic Gods. Wagner was a favorite of Nietzsch who rejected traditional morality and Christianity and was the one who espoused the theories of Nordic or Teutonic supremacy.
Nazi ceremonies had all the traces of the old Teutonic Pagan religion.
Why would anyone who consider themsevles Christian embrace hatred of the Jews?

I understand that the majority of scientists believe in the concept of God or Mother Nature (one and the same if you ask me), but I wonder about the athiest ones.

Are they just arrogant? Do they think "->I<- found this great phenomenon and ->I<- REFUSE to have it attributed to its creator. Therefore, I will say it happened per chance so I will get all the credit."

Thats what I think they think. Its insane to believe everythings by chance. Something had to amke it and makes it tick. I don't care what you think of it as, Mother Earth, God, Nature, WHATEVER.

What makes everything work? How do the organelles in a cell work by themselves? How do brainless RNA strands and protein carriers think and function?

Let me guess, by chance. Sure.

Do the families of the deceased usually cremate them, because of fear of grave desecration?

Can people protest to having that person buried next to their dead relatives, or their own reserved plot?

For example when Charles Manson or whomever dies, and you find out that he's gonna be buried next to the plot you've just bought for yourself and your spouse?

Is it the duty of the cemetary operators to disclose that info to everyone?

Are people just cowards who have invented guns and other means to overcome their general inferiority, so that they can prey on helpless innocent animals? As it says in my Bible, every animal has a soul. If it doesn't say that in your Bible, it's time you bought a proper interpretation of the scriptures and threw that out-of-date version in the closest trash pile.

I understand that this is one of the reasons why Muslims hate the Jews. They believe Jews are bent on world domination.

By using the process of elimination, it came down to only one Church which was the one the Jesus founded 2,000 years ago, the Catholic Church.

Before deciding on Christianity, I had also tried other religions but none gave me the peace that I only found in the Catholic Church.

Here is my question for atheists:
Have you ever just gone into a Catholic cathedral in the middle of a week when there are only a few people in there and just sat there for a while?

I did this before I had made up my mind about becoming a Christian. But when I was sitting in there, I could feel God's peace calling me. I can't describe it because it was a personal experience. That was what convinced me that the Catholic Church was my true home.
