I smoke, and I am a Christian. Does that make me a "DEVIL"?

Where in the Gospel did Jesus say that a smoker was unsavable?

Muslims do believe that Isa (A.S.) was sent down as a Prophet of Allah (God), but he (Jesus) is not God or Lord, nor the son of God. Muslims do not believe that Isa (A.S.), also known as Jesus by Christians and others, is dead or was ever crucified. We believe that he was raised to heaven and is there, and will descend at the appointed time, end all wars, and bring peace to the world.

Im interested in what people think about Jesus and what you think about his death and resurrection. Christianity hangs on this for it's truth. What do you think about it?

There are several places in the bible that mentions this and it is know in various countries of the tale that Lilith would come into Adam and Eve's tent and sleep with them while they were a sleep. That Lilith was displeased with Adam and flew off and lived at the dead sea and would sleep and produce angelic creatures that in return would sleep with Adam and Eve's off spring. They say that is where the giants and disfigured human beings came from. Any other ideas?

And a those who refuse to worship on Sunday are to be put to death with the blessing of your church.
Would you agree with your church leaders or would you decide that it isn't the will of God and leave and join the Christian Sabbath keepers.
Please carefully concider your answer.

For example I have seen that the Pro-choice, Praying to Saints or the Homosexuality issues are a big divide among groups within the same faith!

How can people say this, I just asked a question about religion and spirituality and everyone said that spirituality came before religion. They said Jesus Christ was spiritual... He was Jewish, which is a religion. But even before the jews and other major monotheistic religions, there were religions that praised the sun and praised multiple Gods. If spirituality is just defining your own religious beliefs, wouldn't that just be Buddism without the beliefs in its prophets?

[This question was asked before by myself but due to the small number of replies, I was motivated to ask it again]
To be part of any religion is like being a specialist in a field; to achieve that we must study, question and think about that specific field.
My humble opinion is that many people who adhere to different sets of belief have not made this effort and hence their belief is simply handed down from generations. If you do not study, ponder and question what you believe and if the very "text book" of your religious identity is something you have never read, are you 'qualified' to call yourself a foolower of that faith?
Please note that this question is not meant to be derogatory to any specific religious group and addresses all. Secondly, the purpose of this question is not to insult religion (for I am the follower of one) but to seek your opinions.
Intelligent answers will be welcome.

I was disturbed when I ran a crossed a google add for a movie called The God That Didn't Exist. So I googled it and what I found was a website saying that there is no Roman record of them putting a man named Jesus to death. I think that if this is true then it's just because they put him to death illeagly so they covered it up. Or maybe because it was pass over and it slipped their minds. What do you think?

Obviously it was part of gods loveing nature. It seems even god has a dark side that it wants to remain hidden. But it seems god even is not powerfull enough to keep it hidden. So the only thing god does is punish the human with dambnation when the human questions god on this matter.

Here is a quote I pulled off the web in reference to spirits the emphasis on barely educated is mine. I just wanted to point out what rational people think of those with these kind of beliefs. Don't people have any pride. I would hate to be in the "barely educated" category. "BARELY EDUCATED villagers living in remote mountain valleys are blaming the increasing number of AIDS deaths not on promiscuity or a lack of condom use but on malign spirits."

Man created the concept of time, so just how long could a day be for God? If we look at the size of the universe, which he created, it could be many hundred thousands of years, or perhaps that's just a blink of the eye to God.

I mean in a serious manner. I know many people that get hounded by Protestants who admit that they have actually never been told that they are going to hell by Catholics.

I'm just wondering if anyone knows a Catholic who does this?

I'm Catholic, but everytime I meet someone that I really get along well with, I always find out that they hate Catholics (most of my friends are atheist or agnostic). Everyone always assumes I'm atheist. I think this is because I do not push my religion upon them, although if they ask me about it, I am willing to discuss it.

Do you think it's odd that I seem to get along best with people who completely despise my religion?

In the beginning God created Adam & Eve, but when Cain went out into the world he married. Where did all these other people come from? The bible constantly counterdicts itself, so just what do we base our faith on.
