Is it because he is trying to perpetuate the myth of Muslims as victims? This is part of their strategy to take over the world while crying oppression.

Islam is the prob-lam!

I was brought up in a family without religion. I'm very open to the idea but have found no indication of which path too choose.

My views are shared by many. I'm not an atheist as I believe in something greater than myself. After all the miracle of life stared somewhere.

I agree life is wonderful and intricate but this doesn't point me in a direction.

Why a single God, why Jesus, why Muhammad, why Aliens? Apart from holy texts I'd like too see some proof.

Many of the Texts share the "Be good to each other" tag line which I approve of. However, I'm not a fan of blind "faith," so any proof of which religion to follow would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks for your time,

Peter A

P.S: If someone says God talks to them, I'm bringing out the "men in white coats.".

P.P.S: Scientology isn't a religion its a Cult, so I guess those type of aliens are out of the question.

I have a hard time understanding how "saved" Protestants can argue logically that other believers already with Jesus are dead believers.

As a Catholic I'm regularly attacked for believing in a Church that prays for one another and am told that those Christians who have had a physical death cannot hear our prayers why is that? Aren't those who are truly "saved" and with our Lord Jesus more alive than any of those still on earth wanting to join them?

"True Christianity" (using that term is going to get some dander up) teaches when we receive our heavenly salvation we partake of the Lord's divine nature. 2Peter 1:4

The earliest of Christian creeds contains a proclamation of unity of the Church and a belief in the commuion of saints. Yet physically death appears to divide the spiritual unity of God's Church in the eyes of many Protestants.

Since when did logic alone entail any certain metaphysics? Do they not realize logic works from axioms (or metaphysical assumptions) in the first place?

Because that is exactly what God did. He paid YOUR debt, the death you deserved, with the most priceless sacrifice ever made--the crucifixion of a totally sinless Man. Bless you all.

Amazing Grace!

In reference to Christians versus "everybody else". Where does it come from? On the Christian side, most Christians will attest that anyone not following their religion is serving Satan, even if it is unknowingly.

However, even here on R&S, it seems most of the other religions come together in a common argument against Christianity. Members of other religions will more quickly align themselves with an Atheist than a Christian ... even though the Atheist finds their beliefs to be equally absurd.

What are your thoughts? Does one cause the other? Or do they both serve to reinforce the opinions of the opposing sides?

There are "proofs" of God's existance going back thousands of years. St. Thomas Aquinas' proofs being the most famous. However, none of the theological proofs have withstood the test of time. Philosophers, scientists, even lay people have refuted every single one of them. When asked and pressed on the matter the closest thing to a universal concenseus I've ever gotten is that faith is tied to feeling. People just "feel" that it is the right choice. However, human psychology is a tricky thing and relying on feeling without external evidence is even trickier. In fact, in areas other than faith, believing in something without evidence or in the face of negative evidence, is considered a psychosis. If religion is not a psychosis, how do your rationalize your beliefs? If beliefs don't have to be rationalized then how did you come to know they were true? Was it childhood indoctrination? Was it studying the scriptures and prayer? If the later, how is that different from just an "feeling"?

In the weeks following 9/11, we were all on the same page. Everyone was nice to each other. We allowed people to cut in front of us in traffic, we committed more acts of kindness for no reason other than to be kind.

It didn't take very long for all of that to evaporate. Within a few months, we were all jerks to each other again.

Why?

Should Justice & Fairplay NOT Prevail?

Is It Impossible For Believers, 'To Forgive Their Alleged Enemies?' & Treat Them as Their fellowmen?
