Paraphrasing Stephen Pinker (a linguist), if an alien was to describe the human inhabitants of Earth, it might say that we all spoke the same language with varying regional vocabularies.

To think that outside of the realm of humans, in the bigger picture, God would care about such a trivial matter does not compute with me.
I mean, seriously. If God is cosmic..If he is the alpha and the omega..the beginning and the end..why would he care which vocabulary word we use? And why would this be more important than other human values?

I am not moved by Bible quotations, either. Dig deep and see what you come up with WITHOUT any biblical reference. I want logic.

I was reading the Bible today and I come across this. How can the Bible be called the word of God if the science within the text itself is nothing but, excuse my language, trash?

Who do Pseudo-secularists, marxists, liberals and communists always love standing up for Islam and making excuses for muslim terrorism when Islam seeks the very destruction of these ideologies???

Islam seeks a world where everyone will be Muslim...the concept of the world being divided into Muslim and non-muslim and Muslims taking Islam to the unbelievers by the use of the sword is central (as much as muslims try to dress it up)...This then means that Islam is anti-thetical to liebralism and secularism in every way.

That has seriously tempted you and caused you to consider believing in God?If yes,what was it.And why did you still decide against believing in God?

And if yes,what faith were you considering believing in?

What was the total populaton of Hindu and Buddist while the Holy Quran was revealed?

I would like to analyse why there is no mention of these sp two religons in the Quran? WE find only Jesus and Moses in the Quran. Why we dont find Krishna or Buddha in the Quran?

Can we say that India was unknown to Prophet Mohammad?

I feel like I may need to seek out a therapist (psychologist) at some point here. I would really like to try to find a good one who practices therapy around Christian ideals.

Has anyone had any experience with a Christian Therapist vs. a secular therapist?
How do I find them in my metro area?
What's a good screen process to use to choose one?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

To me this book is like Star Wars meets Christianity meets Islam meets Greek Mythology meets Astrology meets Paganism meets King Arthur and much more!!!

This book is also divided according to Earth Gods of their time - His Embassadors like
Book of Fragapatti - Son of Jehovih
Book of Apollo - Son of Jehovih
Book of Ah'shong - Son of Jehovih
Book of Es - Daughter of Jehovih
Book of Cosmology
Etc. Etc. Etc.

There is a part of this bible like book that has accurately predicted the technologies that emerge on this Information Age.

My favorite is the Book of Es - Daughter of Jehovih which is supposedly the one that applies to current time. There is a line of this book that made me to become truly agnostic (this is my secret). But I'm no longer agnostic, my journey was catholic, essenic(occult/new age), agnostic and finally atheist.

Christians make all sorts of ludicrous claims. They are prepared to force their views upon others. Yet, try to enter your opinion into their groups and you will be told you are not wanted or, at best, they will "instruct" you via email. They obviously want to operate in pristine conditions where no non-believer is allowed to show them how wrong they might be. In other words, they really are doubtful about their beliefs and want to keep assuring each other that there really is a God. They certainly do not wish to risk enlightenment. Kenneth.

If God is infinitely loving and caring, why would he sentence those who do not follow him but possibly could to everlasting torment?

Surely, he would simply place non-believers in a place where they would be lonely and out of his grace until they repented. A type of limbo I suppose. Hell doesn't seem like a place that would be created by a loving God, that's all.

I don't mean this question as an insult -

It just seems to me that "Santa Clause Syndrome" (He knows if you've been bad or good) runs rampant in Judeo-Christian faiths.

If you are only doing good because of what God thinks, then isn't that sort of "evil" in a way?

In my belief - if you do good, it's because it helps others and creates a better atmosphere for you and the rest of humanity.

To have an ulterior motive based on a promise of personal reward would be contrary to the point.

Can anyone shed some Christian light on this for me?

Belief really has little to do with the theory of evolution. Its not whether or not you believe in the theory its a matter of accepting or denying the theory. Anyway I know carbon based right hand apes like to through ism and ists at the end of terms. But does it make any sense to call someone an evolutionists? You might as well call them people that believe in Biology. Or something along those lines. I think that word is retarded.

Your thoughts?
