Religion & Spirituality - 20 December 2007

*I'm not trying to convert anyone, I am simply posing a question that I have been wondering about.*
Most of us have heard of all the terrible things that Jesus went through to save mankind (beaten, cruxified, etc...). With that in mind, I was wondering if any people that don not believe in Christ or God would feel bad if there was undeniable evendence that Jesus died on their behalf in order for them to have the chance not to go to hell.
Personally I think that there would be some that still would not feel any remorse, but I could be wrong.
Once again, I am not trying to convert anyone, or force any beliefs on anyone. I am just wondering about this.

I like answering questions in this part of Yahoo! Answers, but I have never actually read the Bible. If you could provide a link to the modernised version that would be an extra bonus as I've tried to read the original and didn't find the style very easy to continue reading. I'm an atheist, but I'm interested in the Bible from a historical perspective. Thanks in advance for your help.

Like the European Pope excommunicates dissenters or burns them at the stake.

Is it time for Bush, Jr. to step up to the plate and punish all non-Texas Methodists too?

This would likely mean punishing every Democrat in America but Christianity is too important a non-profit religion to allow any criticism ever? It would also guarantee a Republican victory in the USA Presidential election in 2008 too.

Today we had a play although it was about bullies, school etc. In the end they put a "play" together about the story of Christmas. In the end they did they "this lesson applies to all faiths" but what do you think about it? I go to a public school and although, most students are christian there are few that are either muslim or atheist. (5?) What do you think? Its public.

Visualize yourself died

imagine yourself beyond life and death.

Allow images like that
do you think the life was so cruel
was you clinging to ended life?
are you deeply convince of the passed life? or you will say i'm sorry i was sinner
would you like continuing the buried underneath or you may want another chance to reschedule your life
what are the things you're supposed to do?
say any things you need to correct and how can you help improve your life if you get another chance

when you have doubt about a diagnosis you get a second opinion from a different doctor, why does christian read the same book when they have doubt about their religion? whats good from reading from the same source? isn't it much better to exam the belief and read from other sources just to get a different view and then make up their own mind?

Same goes for tortue and child molestation. Theres nothing really wrong with it if the only reason it is bad is because God says it is. Some of you might say of course not! God says its wrong because he has infinite knowledge and knows everything. But if thats the case then whats right and wrong is independent of anyones say so even God. If you really believe that whats right and wrong is brought into existence because of Gods say so - then if God said that tortuing babies for fun is right would it be ok? Again some of you might say he would never say that. But then what way does the arrow point? If he would never say that because its wrong - thens whats wrong and right is independt of his say so.

What say u?

In about 4 billion years, the Sun will no longer be able to support itself under its own weight and it will go supernova or maybe turn onto a Red Giant. Either way, the Earth will be consumed by this process and life as we know it will cease to exsit. What will happen to the human race after we can no longer inhabit the Earth? Will we all go to heaven or is there some other plan in place for this eventuality? Please only answer if you have a legitimate reply. Also, please do not quote the Bible in your answer as I would prefer if people only gave answers they have formulated in their own mind. Thanks.

I'm just unsure. I believe in one God who created the universe. I believe nature guides life today. I do not believe Jesus Christ was the son of God, but do think he was an example of good morals. I believe in after life, but more alone the lines of reincarnation. I'm a pasifict. I do not believe in organized religion.
i dunno, i just wanna believe something but nothing seems to fit how i feel.

Did God write the epistles, the four gospellers works, Moses' efforts as well as Daniels and Davids contributions?
What corruptions, if any, have crept in through the variety of translations.
Perhaps you will agree that it could be about 50% the 'word of God'

How else would i have populated the world? there were only two of us...then Eve had two sons...it was hard to find a girl to even cheat on for a while there. thankfully, we eventually had some girls.

How can incest be wrong if God commanded we populate the world that way?

anyone see my wife?

And if God knew that Adam and Eve would eat from it, wouldn't that mean he wanted them to by putting it there?

you never see it that well. Now heres a little joke I heard a while ago although many of you probably know it.

Their is a woman who is about to drown in a flash flood, the water is up to her knees. A boat comes along and the guy says,"jump in or your going to drown." But the woman says,"no thanks God will save me." The waters up to her neck and a rescue boat comes along and the guy says,"jump in or your going to drown." Again the lady says,"no thanks God will save me." So finally she's on top of her house and a helicopter comes and the guy says to jump in again but the woman still refuses by saying,"God will save her." Later on she drowns and meets God in heaven and says,"I devoted my life to you,went to church, and prayed to you my entire life why didn't you save me?" And God said,"I sent you 2 boats and a helicopter what else did you want?"

I thought it was a pretty insightful little joke.
