Religion & Spirituality - 5 August 2007

Think about it. Many Atheists can't agree on if Jesus, Muhammad or Buddha ever existed. However Christians cannot agree on if the earth is 6,000 years old or 60 billion years old. For myself (Christian) I am a history major, and I admit I am ignorant when it comes to science.

Why do christians believe that Harry Potter is so bad, it's a fictional movie about magic, Fantasia. In Harry Potter I see many good lessons for children to learn, about standing up for themselves and doing the right things. So tell me, when Harry is portrayed as the good guy and Valdemorte as the bad guy, why is it so evil? I'm sorry but don't christians scare the **** out of little kids telling them if they do something wrong that they will go to hell forever? and that the only way for them to not go to hell is to worship god? Sounds to me like the truth is more damaging to young children than the movie...

Ouzibillahi Mina Shytan Al Jajeem
Bismillahi Al Rahman Al Raheem
In the name of Allah I have done what I can for you, now I leave you for your own choices.

Al hamdoullah Rub Alameen
WE ARE COMING OUT INTO THE LIGHT, THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD AND HIS NAME IS ALLAH, AND HIS FINAL MESSENGER AND PROPHET IS MUHAMMED SAW.
AMIN.

PEACE UNTO ALL MANKIND EVEN IF MANKIND DOESN'T WANT PEACE AS YOU SEE HERE, When you lay on your back, you sit and or you are standing we heal you and you turn away after your well and say, I need not Alalh, I have done this myself.
Then why are you here, if you need nothing..? Surely your in manifest error of your lord not any of us.. we have been doing over 5000 reverts a month with help of Allah and we have 1.2% overcase rate over any religion.. so we are coming for you and your famly one by one if we have to and that is all for Allah SWT the ALL MIGHTLY LORD! AND IS MERCYFUL PROPHET MUHAMMED SAW.. MAY WE ALL BE FORGIVEN BUT I HIGHLY DOUBT IT HAHAHHA
AMIN!Al hamdoullah Rub alameen
From the light back to the light we go... there is no room for intelligence here, only ignorance and you all have proved it.. even the Muslims when needed just sat there, the same thing they will do when Mahdi comes just sit there.

My brother did the best he could, he is blind and he gave you what he seen from Allah and all you could do was bash me and him, and so you don't deserve us.. and we are leaving.
Go nuts! put your hate down you will only prove what we have been saying since the first post...THAT ALLAH IS AKBAR THAN ANYTHING YOU CAN MUSTER AND HE IS THE BEST FOR ALL MANKIND YOU HAVE YET TO PROVE ALLAH WRONG! AND YOU NEVER WILL ALL YOU CAN DO IS SLANDER, HATE AND ARGUE.. IF THAT IS HOW YOU HERE HERE, YOUR HOMES MUST BE FULL OF EVIL!

Source(s):

THE GREATEST TRICK THE DEVIL EVER PLAYED ON YOU IS HE MADE YOU THINK HE DOESN'T EXIST AND HE AND HIS BUDDIES IN HELLFIRE ARE HAVING A TOAST ON YOUR SOUL! lololol AND WE CARE NOT!
NOR DOES ALLAH
OR MUHAMMED
OR JESUS
OR MUSA
OR ANY OF THEM ALL THE WAY BACK TO ADAM AND WE WILL DIE TOO. AND THAT DAY WILL BE THE GREATEST DAY. And the more I see hate the more I realize the Jihad will continue against you, not by us only by your own admonitions! Oh you sons and daughters of Adam look how you have shamed yourself. Do you take pride? If you do you will post your pathetic ignorant thoughts like you have done from beginning like you do with your parents. I asked what is most important to you and 99% said your cell phone... well good riddance for those who don't believe. We move to higher ground get ready for every single Muslim cause we are growing faster than you can make babies... and we are coming that is guarantee and there is nothing on the face of the earth that you can do to stop us, we fear you not!
peace or war you decide cause we are in peace and if you want war lets go to the battle field we will be more than pleased standing in our ranks waiting for our life eternal. Surely there isn't 72 virgins but you know what the more I am here the more I realize those people where only a product of what you all create.. hate!

I'm catholic and used to be really religous. But i stopped going to church about 2 years ago and have recently stopped praying. I've noticed that things have become so bad for me. What should i do? i would like to go back to church but so ashamed to confess some of the things i have done. i dont wanna live this life anymore. And I am sorry for all my sins. has my life become bad because God is punishing me or is it because he is not helping me anymore? I'm also worried that if i go back to church the devil will try to get me.

My mom's husband, who is a preacher, insists on repeating the phrase "Knowledge is ignorance" in opposition to scientific research and findings and talks about man leaning on his own understanding. Why are members of the scientific community accused of "Leaning on their own understanding" when, in fact, their experiments are intended to thoroughly challenge their own theories, speculations, and beliefs even beyond the 5 naked senses? Meanwhile, religious devotees proclaim to have all the answers which exempts them from researching outside the parameters of the understanding upon which they lean. Historically, people had believed that the world was flat, the sun revolved around the earth, our solar system was the center of the universe, and natural calamities were often caused by witchcraft or magic. If one chooses to find truth in this doctrine, could it possibly be interpreted to address the people of that time period or perhaps man's initial perception prior to real knowledge?

N.Y. Diocese Loses Sex Abuse Lawsuit Saturday, May 19, 2007 By FRANK ELTMAN, Associated Press Writer ADVERTISEMENT MINEOLA, N.Y. —
The U.S. Conference of Bishops estimates FEMALE AND CHILD abuse-related costs from lawsuits have exceeded $1.5 billion.
Several civil lawsuits have arisen from allegations of sexual abuse in the Roman Catholic church, but few have gone to trial. Most were settled out of court.
In what victims' lawyers called a powerful message to the church, a jury on Friday found the nation's sixth-largest Catholic diocese and a church parish negligent in a case involving a youth minister who repeatedly raped and sodomized teenagers in his care over several years. The jury awarded the two victims a combined $11.4 million in damages.

I want to be a good Christian but i find it hard to cope with the many contradictions i see with the bible and the existence of God.Ok. If i ask someone why my nose is so big, from a religious point of view they would answers, "because god made u that way". if this is true then wasnt it God who made me question his existence? for some people faith is easy, they learn the teachings of the Bible, and follow them purely based on faith, i am different, i feel the need to question, i have a speculative personalyity and think in a scientific manner. i like to have proof of things, thus Faith is a concept i find hard to accept.And this is the way god made me right? But of course, it can be argued that God gave us free will, it is our choice to go on Faith or question. Even if this idea of free will is true, why would god make it so unfair, what did i do to make it harder for me to simply accept what the bible says and so easy for others to accept.Why's it harder for me to go to heaven?

"Turning unto Him (only); and be careful of your duty unto Him and establish worship, and be not of those who ascribe partners (unto Him); - Of those who split up their religion and became schismatics, each sect exulting in its tenets." (The Romans - Verses 30 - 31)

Can we safely assume from these verses that dividing ourselves into sects is Shirk?

Just like the radio frequencies - if you are tune to one you cannot hear the other. Are you listening to God's "I - AM" Station or are you listening to Satan "Faking Me - FM" Station ?

Whose voice and station are you tune to determine your philosophy, character and destiny. Do you know where you are ?
Or, are you searching for the right station?
