Or was it some other demon, perhaps? And was Muhammad really deceived, or could he have been a willing participant in the demon's plot?

God foresaw the ruse and gave us a stern warning against the deceiver. As the Christian apostle Paul wrote in Galatians 1:6-9, long BEFORE Muhammad:

"I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed."

What do you think?

last question...PLEASE try not to miss me too much!!

Why is it so hard to believe in Jesus. Is it because it often requires the mindset of a fundamentalist atheist hellbent on destroying christianity. People who convince themselves that they are the avatar of logic and obsess so much over it that they've turned reality into a mathematical equation and now live in a fantasy world where everything (that inconveniences the fundy atheist) must fit his outrageous criteria.There is far less evidence that that Macedonian king Alexander the Great lived in the B.C. 300s than there is for the life of Jesus Christ as recorded in the Bible, yet nobody has made www.AlexanderTheNonExistant..
I love how athiests presume to know exactly how God 'should' be. Perhaps they's also like to tell Hideo Kojima how Solid Snake 'should' be?

I believe in the Bible and God, but I find myself more and more questioning the teachings of God and the Bible. I know not everything in the Bible is true, and it is foolish to blindly follow something without questioning it. Am I self hating or losing the faith?

I was born and raised in a Christian family and I even attended seminary, briefly. However, recently I have come to doubt most of my Christian beliefs. Being that I am stuck living in their house for an entire summer, how do I let them know why I'm not going to church and reading skeptical books, because they're bound to ask questions eventually and hiding this literature is only a temporary solution, without breaking their hearts? My dad is a conservative Christian, but I'm especially worried about my Mom.

Well, here's another weird (stupid) one.
Did somebody turn ON the "stupid" button today?

I havent heard this one before, and some of you mentioned it...

since you all missed the point...(typical)

The idea that God is a made-up concept to soothe our fears makes no sense, since we reject the existence of other made-up figures that might also make us feel better. A comparison between the existence of God (a non-contingent being) and the existence of Santa Claus or invisible pink unicorns (contingent beings) fails on many levels, not the least of which is that their fundamental natures (non-physical vs. physical) are vastly different. The idea that there is no evidence to support the existence of God is clearly false. The evidence was clear enough for me to convert from agnosticism to deism in the absence of efforts by theists.Philosophical arguments like invisible pink unicorns are great ways to avoid examining evidence, but such an approach is ultimately dishonest.

I mean, if there weren’t any doubts, all the scientific facts that contradict their unproven beliefs would not even be acknowledged, right? True believers would not even have to attempt to refute any science because they are so certain about their beliefs. So come on guys; logic has entered your minds and though you try to push him away, he just wants to help you.

Doctors agree that people are contacted by their dead relatives just before they pass on.
here is an example;
Father lies dying. The hospital is quiet. Visiting hours are over and the sun has long since set. Father has been sleeping off and on all day. His doctor says the end could come at any time. His wrinkled, sunken eyes open slowly. His breathing has been labored, but now it seems to ease and soften. His eyes track to a corner of the room where there is only a faded green vinyl chair. Father smiles.
"You're here," he whispers.

His daughter, determined to be with him in his final moments, takes his hand. "Yes, I'm here, dad," she says. But she knows he's not looking at her.

"No," father says, never taking his eyes off the corner of the room. "There. It's your uncle Jerome. I never thought I'd see him again."
The daughter glances to the corner, but of course sees nothing. Father seems coherent. In fact, she hasn't seen him so alert in days.
"Oh my!" Father's smile broadens. "And Lucille! And mother is with them! They- they say they have come to help me. They have come to take me with them. Can't you see them? They look so wonderful!"

The daughter wraps her father's hand in both of hers. She doesn't know what to think. Father closes his eyes again and the smile slowly fades from his lips. He releases one long, last breath... and is gone.

Do you see others as so heavenly minded that their no earthly good?
Does it matter? Do you think that's what Jesus preached or intended?
