Religion & Spirituality - 18 November 2007

Why do you say that Christians are biggots is it that you cannot handle the truth. All we do is point out what it says in the bible.

The question of course is not being part of something big, because the big bang do not get that name without a reason!

What religions and conspiracy theories project are the desire of man of being big himself! Of being eternal! Or somehow worth a huge conspiracy!

I mean, for some reason that eludes me, the US being a secular country and all, the Almighty Dollar proclaims "In God We Trust" right there, black on white. (Well, greenish on slightly yellowish, but you get the idea.)

That does beg the question what religious significance the declining dollar (down by over 1/3 as compared to the Euro exchange rate on January 1st, 2002) has.

Did god loose 1/3 of his power?
Is god a lousy financial analyst that shouldn't be called on to do a banker's job?
Or is this merely another argument for why having a currency proclaim that "In God We Trust" is ludicrous?

BRFORE YOU ANSWER THIS IS WHAT I KNOW.
1. The Bible Convicts Women as the originalSinners, (ie. Eve picking from the forbiddentree){Genesis 2:4-3:24}. The Koran Clarifies it was Adam Not Eve {Qur'an 7:19-25}
2. The Bible says "The Birth of a Daughter is a loss"{Ecclesiasticus 22:3}. The Qur'an says both are an Equal Blessing { Qur'an 42:49}
3. The Bible Forbids Women from Speaking in church {I Corinthians 14:34-35}. The Qur'an says Women Can argue with the Prophet {58:1}
4. In the Bible, divorced Women are Labeled as
an Adulteress, while men are not {Matthew 5:31-32}. The
Koran does Not have Biblical double standards
{ Qur'an 30:21}
5. In The Bible, Widows and Sisters do Not Inherit Any Property or Wealth, Only men do{Numbers 27:1-11}The Koran Abolished this male greediness { Qur'an 4:22} and God Protects All.
6. The Bible Allows Multiple Wives{I Kings 11:3}
In The Koran, God limits the number to 4 only
under certain situations (with the Wife's permission)
...etc

To dictate the way I lead my life?
Because of religion, I can't be married, I have no power of attorney if my partner falls ill, I have no spousal income benefits.
My partner and I aren't recognized as a couple.
What gives religious-impacted laws the right to control my life when I have not faith?

No seriously, explain it to me.

Lately I have noticed lots of questions and responses about Christmas and it's pagan origins. What are some other beliefs, customs, and/or traditions that dishonor the God of the Bible?
