As ages have gone past, religions have risen and fallen (often with their civilisations). Will there ever be no religion, or do humans have to believe in something? If there is no religion, will there be as many conflicts around the world?

"THE ATHEISTS HAVE TAKEN OVER!" "No one on here isn't an atheist!"

Ok, how many pagans are on at this hour? I can't be the only one.

I grew up being a Christian (Parents and their parents were christian), but I slowly went away from it. Now, I don't want anyone saying anything stupid, only answer if your Christian, please. Anyways.....if you are christian, can you give me some insight? I want to be Christian, but what if it's not true? I know every christian will say it is because they believe it obviously, but Im lost....anyone give me some proof so I can believe again? I mean, of ALL the religions out there, what makes this one so likely to be so?

Ive decided to believe in one God and reject evolution and science and reason. I am now looking at religions and need help.

In Islam, believing in God alone is never ever ever enough. You absolutely must believe in Muhammad, or you go to hell. You must believe in the Quran, or you go to hell. Belief in God doesnt cut it, that only 1 out of 3, and you need all 3 (like a trinity actually).

Anyway, so, I dont want to go to hell, and since so many Muslims believe in Islam, welllll...Islam must be true....right!!! (I have an IQ of below 90).

Ok, so heres my problem. In order to believe in Muhammad, i must believe that God thinks that owning slaves is excellent conduct for all humans to follow for all time. Why? Cause anything Muhammad did, is considered the perfect example for all Muslims to follow. Now, I have a real problem with this...help! How can I rationalize this?

Also, the Quran says the whole EARTH is like a "carpet spread out". Ehhh. How do I unlearn?

I find that gay people is always getting pick and abuse by straight people. you would never see a gay person say anything bad a about a straight person. And there are some straight people think that just becuz they ain't gay they are going heaven. And for the record gay people never really cause alot of disease it's the straight people who causes diseases and blame it on the gay people.

With the exception of the ones I already am familier with...I have to say I'm very impressed with the Jewish faith, I have had Jewish friends in the past but never knew anything about it.
I'm not going to take it up but I do now think Jewish people get a very bad rap. I wonder how many people take the time to look into other beliefs before knocking them?

i wanted to share my beliefs and would like your input. not saying mine are right or true but this is some of my beliefs.

1) spiritual gifts are for us today, not just the discipiles

2)once saved, not always saved

3)good works or deeds have nothing to do with your salvation, but is something you strive for once saved

4)baptism has nothing to do with salvation, but is something you do after your saved to please God

5)you dont lose your spiritual gifts even if you do fall away, you just wont use them

6)you dont have to go to church to go to heaven but it doesnt hurt getting your spirit fed or being with other fellow christians for encouragement.

7)even if you dont speak in tongues doesnt mean your not saved, its just 1 of the evidence the Spirit is in you

i guess this is enuff. any feed back?

Then why bother to send his only son (Jesus Christ) to earth to die for our sins. Why not just forgive? who was he trying to impress? It all seems a little bit extreme for me.

What do you believe?

Many are decieved into believeing that all you have to do is believe and have faith to be saved, this is false doctrine. What does the bible say?

As Oneness Apostolics, we are NOT suggesting that we are not saved by grace through faith. Faith and grace are vital to salvation, but to teach belief alone as "whole salvation" is not scripturally founded. James said in his epistle, "even the demons believe and tremble!" (James 2:19) True belief will lead one to "believe upon Christ as the scripture has said," and thus receive "rivers of living water." Genuine faith in Christ will cause a soul to obey the whole gospel message of repentance and remission of sins in Acts 2:38. Therefore, true biblical faith leads to true repentance, true water baptism, and true Spirit baptism.

No where does the Bible give credence to the notion that belief or confession alone is whole salvation. However, belief and confession are vital elements that lead to whole salvation.

I have heard so many people say that the LDS church (Mormons) should rethink their "racist policies" but they fail to tell us , WHAT racist policies? The ONLY thing I can think would be not giving the priesthood to blacks until 1978, but we don't have racist POLICIES. If we were, then there wouldn't people, intelligent people, of so many different races, in our church.
