Loshon Hora which means 'evil tongue' or 'evil speech.' Many people including Christians curse themselves by the words they speak about themselves and others. Negative words produce negative results, but positive words produce positive results. Many people wonder, how can there really be life and death in the power of my tongue?
Proverbs 18:21 says,
"Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit."
These six things the Lord hates, yes, seven are an abomination to Him: a proud look, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that are swift in running to evil, a false witness who speaks lies, and one who sows discord among brethren.
Proverbs 6:16-19
Here is a prayer:
Heavenly Father, we come to You right now in the name of Jesus. We ask You to forgive us of the sin of Loshon Hora, of evil speech, gossip and slander, lieing, we repent. Now we come in agreement with the blood of Jesus that the curse is broken and reversed in every area of our lives. Amen!
In a book of Jewish wisdom called Guard Your Tongue,
Backbiting: if you maliciously speak Loshon Hora about someone behind his/her back and do not want him to find out that you maligned him, in addition to violating the prohibition against speaking Loshon Hora, you also incur upon yourself a curse.
"Cursed be the one who attacks his neighbor secretly."
(Dvorim [Deuteronomy] 27:24).

I honestly dread the thought of the religious types figuring out how to get along together. All of that righteous anger they vent on each other would need to be directed at a separate target.
------------------------------------
We are a people of different faiths, but we are one. Which faith conquers the other is not the question; rather, the question is whether Christianity stands or falls. … We tolerate no one in our ranks who attacks the ideas of Christianity … in fact our movement is Christian. We are filled with a desire for Catholics and Protestants to discover one another in the deep distress of our own people.
Adolf Hitler, Speech in Passau, (October 27, 1928), Bundesarchiv Berlin-Zehlendorf, cited from Richard Steigmann-Gall's The Holy Reich
The National Government will regard it as its first and foremost duty to revive in the nation the spirit of unity and cooperation. It will preserve and defend those basic principles on which our nation has been built. It regards Christianity as the foundation of our national morality, and the family as the basis of national life.
Adolf Hitler, Proclamation to the German nation at Berlin (February 1, 1933)
Today Christians … stand at the head of [this country] … I pledge that I never will tie myself to parties who want to destroy Christianity .. We want to fill our culture again with the Christian spirit … We want to burn out all the recent immoral developments in literature, in the theater, and in the press—in short, we want to burn out the poison of immorality which has entered into our whole life and culture as a result of liberal excess during the past … [few] years.
Adolf Hitler, The Speeches of Adolph Hitler, 1922–1939, Vol. 1 (London, Oxford University Press, 1942), pp. 871–872

..well...i think that it is not enough to believe that God exists..and acording to the Bible..believing that God exists implies..to fulfill His comandements./.otherwise..it means your faith is dead..
and if you reffer that all Gods..are legal..well i say..here at Christianity..only the Christian God is legal...men are not allowed to have more then one wife..and being legal..it means..to us..the Christians..only our God..is true..and alive...

Why do you think that people are answering questions that are not 'of their interest'?
