No, hun, you're wrong. I'm Christian, and I do not insult other religions - I respect them. I have nothing against people who do not agree with me on my beliefs. Most Christians only get offended when they are disrespected when they actually respect others.

- Should the Bible be the final authority of Christianity or the Church? Well, Christ stated that the Church, not Scripture should be the final authority: "And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the Church: but if he neglect to hear the Church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican." (Matthew 18:17 ) Christ did not state to refer to or consult Scripture for disputes and correction. He said to go to the Church as It is the final authority in Christianity. In addition, St. Paul states that the Church, not Scripture is "THE pillar and ground of the truth." (1 Timothy 3:15) Since the Church alone is mentioned as the pillar of truth, then It alone has the right to discern the truth and interpret Scripture. For if individuals could correctly interpret Scripture, then all interpretations would be exactly the same as there can only be one Spiritual Truth for the plural of the word "truth" never appears in Scripture. The Church is Christ's bride (Ephesians 5:29) and has "no spot, wrinkle or blemish" (Ephesians 5:27). Christ also stated that the gates of Hell will not prevail against His Church (Matthew 16:18) so how can the Church commit error? Individual clergy may commit sins, even popes commit sins because in the Church there are both "weeds and wheat" (Matthew 13:30

Are you severe. Kali are 4 letters prepare to form a be conscious. Kali to Hindus mean one difficulty, yet Kali to others would desire to be basically a neat sounding call. My canines is named Kiko, does that mean i'm disrespecting Japan's Princess? would desire to human beings be insulted while human beings call their canines Steve, Butch, or Lucy. i think of a few paranoia is rubbing off on you, and it isn't the christian sort. ___ additionally how do you recognize if a Hindi hasn't named their canines after a Hindu Deity?

Ok dude, it is this simple. Christ said, "I am the way the truth and the light, no man comes unto the Father but through me." Now if yuo don't believe him fine. But either he is who is says he is, or he isn't. Now, if as a Christian, I am right, then it doesn't matter what you choose to believe or accept, thats just the way it is. If I am wrong, and i say if only to be fair, then I haven't really lost anything except maybe a lifetime of selfishness and pursuit of material wealth.

You are absolutely right. I am a "nontraditional" religion and all I see are Christian things. Seems like they are the bullies, not the rest of us.
I am willing to let everyone, including Christians, have their freedom of religion.

Because all others are spiritually blind, because only through faith is the veil lifted off the eyes of understanding and the knowledge of the truth can only be perceived by those who believe in faith.
Faith is given to those who seek the truth.

Because Christianity is not a religion but reality, and peace of mind.
The church is the body of Christ, not some building.
The Word of God is our doctrine, void of any man-made principle or belief.
Also void of traditions, rituals, and fallacies of men.
Our beacon for truth is Christ, the Word of God.
There is only One God and only one Gospel the good news, the Word of God.
If it is not written in His Word, then it is not of God.

1Ti 4:7 But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness.

2Ti 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
2Ti 4:4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
This prophecy has been fulfilled and is being fulfilled.
