Religion & Spirituality - 29 June 2007

Why do people say this?
Does this give the people the power of God.
Can I laugh now?

Mat 27:46, it states that while Jesus was on the cross, he said: "Eli, Eli, lama sabachtani (My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?). If Jesus said these words, it represents a blatant declaration of disbelief according to all theological authorities. This is a great insult as such words could only come from an unbeliever in God. Further, it is incredible that such words should come from a Prophet of God, because God never breaks His promise and His Prophets never complained against His promise, especially when the Prophet’s mission is understood. It could be said that whoever relates that this statement was said by a Prophet (Jesus), is a disbeliever. Qur’an states, Jesus was not crucified. It was the intention of his enemies to put him to death on the cross, but Allah saved him from their plot. Qur’an 4:157: "That they (Jews) said boasting, "We killed Christ Jesus, the son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah, but they (Jews) killed him not, nor crucified him...

I have noticed that religious Christians are the quickest to get angry out of all the people I know. They start quoting scripture all the time during otherwise normal conversation, and when you get into an argument with them because they are almost always super anal weirdos, they blow up and show this ugly dark side. It's as if the religious Christians are actually the devil. They just seem to have such a dark side! So easily angered and ready to argue! They are always nice while trying to quote scripture and convert you.

Why do Christians and K-12 teachers paint a heroic picture around Martin Luther and make Hitler look barbaric? Does Mein Kampf not include Martin Luther propaganda quotes referring to Jews? Were his writings about burning Jewish homes and exterminating Jews from the planet not taken seriously by the Nazis in Germany? We read over and over about one man taking on the horrible totalitarian Catholic Church and never do we hear about the protestant regressive ideals that include the anti semitic writings. Should protestant regressive differences not be included in the history of the reformation? Do people really believe that the holocaust could have taken place without Christian teachings? Do people really think that Hitler’s Jewish perspective did not come from Christian teachings? Will Christians ever admit to their religions wrong doings and take responsibility for the horrific history instead of blaming atheists????

Most people outside of Scientology believe that it is more a cult than a religion. So my question is do you believe that Scientology will be a valid recognised religion in 1000 years and will it be as accepted as Christianity, Buddhism, Islam, Judaism and the countless other religions that are recognised today?
Thanks

t makes the earth larger in size than the sun.
It claims that the navel (umbilicus) is a result of Satan spitting on the mass of clay from which man was created!!
It states that Adam tried to stop himself from swallowing the forbidden fruit, and that resulted in the protrusion known as the larynx.
His ignorance of the land where Christ lived is very obvious. For example, he places Nazareth at the shore of the Sea of Galilee.
The above are just a few examples of the many errors contained in this false document, and should be enough to prove how ridiculous this document really is, and in fact, so is the whole argument concerning it.

It was a forgery from the middle ages, a great piece of anti-christian psy-ops

I know there is a chance of God, but I am not convinced of any creator. Please, I am an undecided Agnostic and am thinking heavily on turning to be an Agnostic atheist. Theism of all kinds is discouraging. I would like to hear from atheists and theists of all backgrounds. Thank you all.

Not that anyone really wants to die, but in the end, if you have some notice that you are dying, and have the opportunity to more or less know when you have days left, would it be exciting as well as sad/scary? I mean sometimes I think about way down the road in my life when I'm about to die how exciting it might be to know that i'm about to step into the "other side" and maybe finally get some answers to some of the questions that haunt people through their lives, like the truth about religion, life, etc.... I can see it being exciting with anticipation if you live a good life and prepare mentally for the moment.

lol, that got your attention. But seriously why does everyone believe what Darwin said just because he wrote it down. Nearly 150 after his book was published it is still a theory. Why not believe Bible it makes more sense than a big bang?

Inspiration, & now I must return to the One, who Blessed us
with ALL CREATION.
You helped me live a life of Success, in doing my Best, to
keep BROTHERHOOD alive,
you let others know to be among the Best, who'd join the
rest who will travel to Gloryland, to preach & teach with
THAT HEAVENLY BAND.
Music you sang, Words you said, from your heart, di
allow me to depart....
You taught me much, just as I did you, & we walked along
together, in life..
Be Proud, for I Stand, Beside the BEST MAN, who did
Stand, for the Right & Fair
The One who was as Human as you and I!
So Come Along, join me..SOMEDAY !

"At" is a Hebraism, meaning the Greeks borrowed the word from the Hebrews, it means "Adam". "Lan" means "land" or more accuately "people". "Tis" is the Greek word "of"... So At-lan-tis means "People of Adam".
