Religion & Spirituality - 3 July 2007

people in our generation prioritizes there work,money,power,fame, and comfortable life...can you bring them for eternity? well, the answer is no. it doesn't matter how much money or fame or how comfortable your life is in this world, why? coz you'll end up being dead someday, you can't bring those coz you're dead! it's just your soul that would be for eternity...where will your soul go after you die? heaven or hell? (sorry..there's no purgatory in the bible..)

Just wondering if there are any more arguments for God's existence...

Love, beauty, morality, existence, near-tragic events, complexity of life, finely-tuned universe, prophecies, experiences...

Missed any?

Look I know you love the creator of your religion but honestly that name is becoming very generic. If you shout "Mohammed!" in a crowded Islamic street does everyone turn and look at you, thinking you were talking to them? Does the Islamic culture really lack creativity?

I am not generalizing. This is a very factual thing.

Please DO NOT give stupid silly answers. This is a serious question.

Viruses are essentially parasites that kill healthy people and animals. What benign purpose could the serve? How was their role played out in the Garden of Eden?

If you are a Christian evolutionist... God uses evolution to create life... so "they evolved" is not really an explanation for anything.

Who would you attack next? yourself? The trees for being so green? The bees for producing a honey so sweet?

What would you do in your free time? You ar the ones who say there only one life. And that there is not heaven. Tell you something? You are wasting the only one you can get making fun of Christian and of a God you dont believe. That is sad and funny at the same time.

I spend time talking about what I believe. and you? about something you claim do not exist. Take an aplication and get a job.

...how do they combine and equal just one fully God? What does the Bible say about that? No copy-and-paste answers please.

Yes, yes, I know Jesus had a lot to say about eternal life; that's not my question.
I'd like to know why the Bible god didn't talk about it much; and so my question covers Genesis through Malachi.

Replies from Bible scholars and others appreciated.

Atheists say that they are smarter than Christian? Is that true at all?

Poor countries are more propense to believe in Jesus. Rich country are less likely to believe in God. Where there are more rich people, there is better education. However, education does not mean you are smarter. For example, here in USA we have tons of college, maybe more than in China and Japan, economy is also better, however, education in Japan and China is years ahead of the US.

Christian are not less smart, it is just that countries where economy is not that good, tend more to be Christian or of any other religious.

Behavior show how smart people are, smart people discuss and talk about what they believe, not about what they dont believe.

Most atheists bahavior is to make fun of Christian. Smart atheists do not make fun of religious. For example, Bill Gate. He says "religion is interesting" but he preffer explore something else. He has not said he is smarter than Christian.

Who is smarter?

If so then why do some religious (key word is SOME) want to ban and even burn certain books simple because they disagree with the subject matter? While it is their right to verbal disagree about the book, it is not right to ban or burn it from others who want to read it.
Such as Harvest Assembly of God Church in Penn Township.

Should Intellectual Freedom be allowed?

Seriously why ban and burn books? Do you realize that doing so will lead to a world very similar to the novel Fahrenheit 451?

Source of banning and burning book is here
at the American Library Association website.

If you wanted to manipulate people with a religion, what "catch" phrases would you use?

Example: "lean not on your own understanding" - Does this mean, no matter what you understand to be true, just believe me?

There must be several other ones.

Can you think of any "catch" phrase that would cause a person to never question the authority of a religion?
