Is it because they know everything, or is it that they are so unteachable they do not even realize their unwillingness to learn? I am just wondering. I am not pointing fingers here. Well not specifically anyway. Just curious. Whaddya think?

how can you reconcile His message with mohammad's?
in my Bible, which i have actually read on my own quite a bit, the only message i get is some form of love. love yourself, love your neighbors, love your enemies....

forgive me, because there is this possibility that i don't know what i'm talking about, but 2+2 is not adding up to 4 here.

the idea is that in heaven god will be the supreme and only ruler, right? also, feudal words like "king", "lord", and the Persian imperial title "king of kings" still persist in popular Christian speech.

so why do "we" tolerate this mere republic? why can't we declare Jesus the supreme lord and king of the world and have officers run the government in his name? surely the government of heaven is good enough for the government of earth, right?

If what prophets are told become scripture, where is it today? If nothing can be added to John, then all of the Apostle's writings are false except John, for all have been added. Has there has been a prophet since John? If so, where is his writings/scripture?

Would you be irritated and sad? Hurt and bewildered? That is how I felt yesterday being told that as a Catholic I was not a Christian, rejected by my brothers and sisters in Christ. On that not could I ask your forgiveness for my posts? I was not aware one came across as proud and boastful. Please forgive me.
Peace Be With You,
Debra

One of my characters is to have a degree in divinity (having studied at university of chicago and influenced by Mircea Eliade and Petru Culiano) but has specialty in Black Majic/Satanism ... I am having difficulty in finding a way to give her (the character) this education in a credible way. I have not found any professional school that might teach such. Any suggestions?

If the holy trinity is God, prophet Jesus pbuh, and the Holy spirit and God is all of them in one. Then why do Christians say only the prophet Jesus's name when they are in angst, or feeling distressed, or something out of the blue happens. Basically when the say it in vain.

If they believe God came into prophet Jesus's body why don't they say God. Not that I am condoning saying Gods name in vain.

I just dont understand. Jesus is a man. they believe that right. But they believe God is in Jesus, so why do they not say God other than Jesus. Is it easier to think that God was just like them.

Please clarify it for me. I have respect for all religions and would love to hear your opinions.

The people who knew and saw Jesus had "little faith" how could we, who have never seen him, be expected to have faith in him?

Matthew 8:26
26And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm. (KJV)

Matthew 17:20
20And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. (KJV)

Also, does anybody else play any other games and not have problems with it?
What about Spore, the new game coming out next year that lets you create an organism and let it EVOLVE over time, and they laugh by also adding a possible religion for your species.
How do you feel about those kinds of games? personally im gonna love em, have no problem with em, and cant wait to play em. So, as for YOUR opinions?

After reading a few very hate filled answers yesterday I started thinking about the topic of hatered in general, because I must admit some of them made me very angry, so why do we all hate each other so? Why do so many hate anyone who is different from them whether it be religiously, sexually, etnically, matirially etc.

I believe that all people are connected to each other, we all live in a society but that connection goes far beyond that. So if you imagine our society as a glass filled with clear water and imagine hatred as red paint. What happens if you place a drop of red paint into the water? It doesn't just sit there like a blob, but it colours the whole water pale red, and the more paint you add the more red the water will become.

So when you hate someone you are in fact hating yourself, because that hatered affects you just as much as it affects anyone around you.

So why do we all hate each other so? Can't we just love and respect one another instead?

What I find even more ridiculous is that Muslims that come into this country bring in there religous beliefs in with it. and we have to abide by it. They don't wear uniforms in schools cause it's there religion to wear a certain dress or item of clothing. I'm not against any peoples beliefs but I will say that if your going to come into this country you damn well respect our way of doing things and learn to respect our traditions.
Also I personally think religion is the cause of all wars.
