Suppose astronauts were exploring the moon and one day came across what appeared to be an ancient battle field on the moon. This battle field was littered with the bodies of what appeared to be angels. Moreover, it appeared that the angels had been fighting one another.

If such a thing was found, would it affect your religious beliefs in some way? How would you interpret such a discovery?

I was reading some of the responses to the following question:

http://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Asm5oShi5pt.qfGm2XRhFyFFLxV.;_ylv=3?qid=20070929095842AALjrXx

and one individual stated that 'great scientists are known to be very religious persons'.

Obviously before the 19th century you are unlikely to find many scientists who claim to be agnostic/atheist due to the very real threat of judicial punishment that they would be subjected to.

However, I cannot think of any 'great' scientist since the mid 19th century who was 'very religious'. For example, Darwin died a convinced atheist despite the claims of 'Lady Faith' who maliciously stated that he recanted his theory of evolution on his deathbed. Einstein also was a non-believer as can clearly be seen in his many letters on the subject and indeed the hate mail he received from certain religious groups in America. For details of this read Chapter 1 of the God Delusion.

Who then are these 'Great Scientists'?

What kind of rational deity would do something like that?

There is a point regarding the Name of God that I want here to address. Jehovah is identified as “the LORD God” in upper case, whereas Jesus is referred to as “the Lord” in lower case. Few people realize that the word “Lord,” whether in upper or lower case, is translated from the word Baal. So that if one is praying “Lord, Lord,” he is calling upon demonic--i.e., extraterrestrial--Baal gods. This is why Jesus Christ spoke out against certain people calling on “the Lord.” (See Matthew 7:22, 23)

If there is no God, then why is the world full of good people?

Maybe the Holy Bible is a History Book, it is just a older history book. People back then did not know the time so they couldn't write important dates with names and events

Have you ever thought why humans are so knowledgeable?

Have you ever thought God may wanted to reward us with a great afterlife for all our hard work?

Maybe Science can be wrong, and religion could be right. Science is about theories. Religion is about events that happened before you were born.

Why are humans the most superior creatures on this Earth?

Why are men so dominant? Men were the first creation by God.

If Jesus Christ wasn't important, then why is this 2007 A.D?

Just think about it.

This question is based on these underlying thoughts:

I've read many atheists comments about this--that religious beliefs fly against the face of reason.

The brain is or is not capable of digesting both facts and faith?

How is full bloom of reason differentiated from a little reasoning capacity?

Reason doesn't fully encircle our daily activities. We can choose to have heated sex with a monkey--this isn't reasonable for 99.9999999% of humans. Sometimes lust is way beyond reason. People's choice of favorite foods is way beyond reason... etc..etc.

It's getting chilly and last night at the football game there was this beautiful bright yellow butterfly, just flying around, I just though it was kind of odd. Could it mean something. I haven't seen a butterfly in a while because of fall.

Or is it a general Christian Prayer?
By the sign of the cross I mean when you say "in the name of the father,and of the son and of the holy spirit,Amen" as you touch your forehead,chest and shoulders.

Let's say you have a brother or sister (in Christ) in your church when going through a really hard time puts a smiley face on and acts like things alright when things aren't. On the other hand, let's say you have a brother in Christ at church that can't talk about what hardships he's going through with out using profanity. He says, "things are pretty f^%$ed right now. what do you think God is really more turned off by and why. what are you more turned off by?

CHRISTIAN TRINITY as the foundation of their Polytheistic Theology

God the Father = Judge/Punisher (in OT)
Jesus the Son = Creator/Saviour/Love
Holy Spirit = Preserver/Source of Miracles

HINDU TRINITY as the foundation of their Polytheistic Theology

Shiva = Punisher/destroyer
Brhama = Creator/Love
Vishnu = Preserver/Source of Miracles


Except Hindus believe God can come in millions of forms but even then he is One God…..

This is much like the Christian trinity of God as the Father, Son and Holy Ghost. The trinity represents the Divine in its threefold nature and function. Each aspect of the trinity contains and includes the others.

God is multi-part but always considered as “one”.

GOD the father commandments to KILL ALL NON-BELIEVERS


"Whoever sacrifices to any god other than the LORD must be destroyed. (Exodus 22:20)

They entered into a covenant to seek the Lord, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and soul; and everyone who would not seek the Lord, the God of Israel, was to be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman. (2 Chronicles 15:12-13 NAB)

how, if no prayers to a deity, my wishes are answered by self, does that make me my own Miracle Worker?

Dear God:
I know that I'm a sinner. I deserve Hell. But You sent Jesus to die for my sins. I believe that He died and rose again. I ask you now to forgive my sins, once an for all. I now receive Jesus Christ as my Lord and Personal Saviour. Please come into my heart and save me, Help me to know I am saved and live for You, the rest of my life. In Jesus' Name I pray, Amen.

Does Revelation tell us what date Babylon of our day will go down? Some believe Babylon of Revelation has to do with the old Babylon and they are right but in what way? What teachings are the same? Are we Jehovah's Witnesses the only ones who understand that tie between the two Babylons? Why did Daniel in old Babylon know things others did not know? Today is 1 John 2:27 the reasson for understanding that tie? And who would understand that tie first? The Ambassadors of Jehovah's people today? Which ones gets the spirit of truth first? Do you have that spirit working with your spirit? Do I? Who knows who he gives that spirit to? Who is to judge the fact of that? Any men? Paul was the foremost sinner of his day and yet he became an Ambassador to be with Christ. Can that same scenario happen today with one of us? Would that be a great undeserved kindness from Jehovah showing anyone can be foregiven if thier heart is right and good? Or become so if they repent?Earth forever for Evorys!FACT!
