Thank you for posts but I was actually asking each person to clear up our misconception about THEIR faith.

Answer 1

The whole "homosexuality is an obomination" thing

Answer 2

1 does Exodus 31 -13-17 say that G-D has made a perpetual Covenant on the Saturday sabbath forever with Israel. so in heaven the Saturday Sabbath is still perpetual. then what does it mean "on earth as it is in Heaven". 2.Lev 23 -1-18 G-D said "Moses,. tell this People that these are My holy days" Of course the first one is G-D's holy Saturday Sabbath. ,passover , first day of unleavened bread waved sheaf offering and then Pentecost Paul called Jesus the Passover Lamb, Passover lamb has to die on the preparation to the passover . so Jesus would of died on the 13 th. day of the month, the day after tomorrow would be the 15 th. day. a day that no servile work could be done. So Jesus would be in the tomb for passover the 14 ,first day of unleavened bread the 15th and we know that the Chief of first fruits would be waved just after the Saturday sabbath, Jesus went into the tomb at sundown 72 hours later at sundown Jesus would come forth as the first fruits. are you seeing the changes that the Catholic church has done there's allot more scriptures that i could put down on paper

Answer 3

Yes I have a question. If it says that "God" is beyond human understanding then I must ask how you became so understood on the subject to say you know anything about "half truths / misunderstandings/ and fltat out lies?

Answer 4

Mis-Conceptions of Catholics

1. That we worship Mary.
2. that we worship Statues.
3. That we worship the Pope.
4. That all priests are pedophiles.
5. That we worship more than the one true God.
6. That we are all drunks.
7. That we pay priests to forgive our Sins.
8. That the priests themselves forgive our Sins.
9. That we secretly support the KKK.
10. That we go to Mass to then sin all we want the rest of the week.

Just off the top of my head!

Thank you for starting this question, best I have seen on here.

My main source of aggravation is when people who do not know what I believe, tell me what they think I believe as a matter of fact when they are completely wrong!


Peace!

Answer 5

The New Jerusalem will bear out that God is one, and there is a union of good and truth in God creating charity and faith in man's soul (the cup and platter). Two lives that God has, two receptacles that man has.

Answer 6

Thank you
Many people think that Religious Science is Scientology or Christian Science. It is not. It uses the principles of Science of Mind- That we are all one and God is in each of us and the way we think creates our life as God's mind created all. We pray affirmatively and do not beg or bargain with God.

Answer 7

There isn't any about Islam in general. There is just a group of ignorants who keep repeating themselves against Islam with false accusations.

Answer 8

That All muslim women are oppressed, beaten, neglected in everyway. It's not true, I know many muslim women and I am one myself and none of us are in that situation. In fact my husband put his brother in law in the hospital and demanded his sister divorce him because he hit her just 1 time. And that Muslims want to kill all Americans and Christians and Jews, My family is American and Christian. Do I want to kill my mom? My little 7 year old brother? Of course not. I couldn't even kill a mouse. Killing any person is a sin in Islam. Even in war times it says in the Holy Quran to not kill anyone you have captive. I'm sure there will be many closed minded people who will disagree with everything I wrote, and maybe even report me, but it's the truth.

Answer 9

I have several, but people aren't going to like them. (Even if they did, there's a group of people following me around, giving thumbs-down to all my questions and answers anyway!) But I don't care what people think so here goes:
1. The Bible DOES say very clearly throughout both the Old Testament and the New Testament that homosexuality is WRONG.
This doesn't mean that Christians have a right to judge anyone, it just means that the Bible has clearly defined it as being sinful.
2. King James only ordered the Bible to be translated into English. He is not the person who "founded" Christianity.
3. There was never any question as to the divinity of Christ. The Council of Nicea only discussed whether or not Jesus WAS God.
4. Speaking in tongues does not mean speaking in gibberish.
5. The books that were not included in the canon was NOT because the early Christians felt threatened by them. It was because they couldn't pinpoint exactly who wrote the books, or when...and they questioned whether or not the books were in fact inspired by God.
6. The Bible has more original manuscripts than ANY other ancient writings.
7. Jesus was not a fictional character. There are other documents that prove He existed besides the Bible.
8. Christians are not sheep, or lemmings. There are many intelligent Christians who can tell a person not only WHAT they believe, but WHY they believe.
9. Just because a person is a Christian does not mean they're going to be perfect.
10. Evolution and Christianity ARE compatible.

That's just a few. I could go on, but I figure this is enough.

Answer 10
