I know the bible in and out and know what is said that it came from but I've read through various articles that the formation of the old testament was re written by Jewish preists about 1500 - 2000 BC. Now I wasn't convinced by these articles and looked quite extensively for information...

But arent the politians and the Army are the ones who wage war. Dont they twist the truth to benefit there means to gain the majority of support to allow them to war. Religion is but a tool to them, they do not necessarily believe in it but they know that it will allow them to gain support and...

In my experience in my walk with God he would rather have us talk to him like a friend or father rather than ardorn him like a sacrid object. In the bible people when talking to God it is made more like a conversation, there are the times when its in reverence but sometimes even the greatest...

Okay, but the reason I compare God to us is that, although it is true that we are imperfect we are made in the likeness of God. Not only that but from my understanding, as a Christian, from the word of God (The Bible) in a lot of ways we are similar to God (dont misunderstand me, I'm not...

We are debating whether it is in our nature to sin or whether it is an act that we choose to invite into our lives

I asked why you have to pray that specific way no why you have to pray. When my slave says in his prayer: "All praise is for Allaah, the Lord of the worlds," I say: "My slave has praised Me" When he says: "The Merciful, the Compassionate, Master of the Day of Judgement," I say: "My slave has...

We can choose to do sin or not. Satan is given too much credit when these thing are brought about. How many times in the bible is satan himself mentioned to have tempted people? We use satan as a cause for our sin but really what was the Sin of Adam and Eve, was it in disobeying God? or was...

But war has always been, right from where Cain killed Abel. I agree it is horrible and should not be but with power (politians usually have the most power) comes distrust of the things you do not control and a lot of times Religion helps fuel the need for war. The We Are Right (WAR) syndrome.

But what does that prayer mean to you? It is a demonstration of your faith to follow the commandments of your word but what siginificance do those words have to you. I ask this because for example if three people make the same prayers and yet one of them is doing it because they feel they...

Did not Christ come to free us from the Religion and the Tradition that it brings, to bring us to realise that its not the religion that we follow that he wants but the heart. Take the parable of the Samaritan. He didn't follow the doctrine of the Jews and yet he was considered righteous. Or the...

what is the definition of sin? We all know the commandments and fullfillment of those commandments in Christ, but what is the bare bones of sin? When we are faced with new issues today how do we determine whether it is right or wrong?

The concept, I feel, is different than the application. The concept is to promote a stable economy and to ensure that lower income persons are not overtaken by the value of money, but the application by the banks seems to mean that the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. The concept I...

My definition of a prayer is an expression of the feelings inside your heart to God. I guess to me this means that a prayer transends language and even words. But if in those words that you pray the feelings that you wish reveal to God are in them, then that can be just as powerful a prayer.

some times the best way to deal with things is to go to an anomous source like a forum or the like to let things out. Venting is very important because the longer you hold things in the longer they eat at you until they consume you. It's hard to face the ones that have hurt you, especially...

Sorry for being ignorant but why do you have to recite it in arabic when you pray?

This is also same for the Christian belief. We have a right to defend ourselves, as does any other nation or religion. I find it strange that many people, especially christians believe the actions of a few to be the belief of many, especially when it comes to musliums. I am the most...

The problem is that there are two sides to Interest, one you have the big problem with interest that the banks, who are the ones who govern interest, make the interest that they charge you to be greater than the interest that you recieve. Also the bank charges are also generally large enough to...

For those christians who say that you worship the One true God, I am a Christian myself, I would like to ask you, is anyone who is not a Christian not loved by God? I myself would answer of course not, God loves the person who has a heart after his own heart. Think of the Jews, we both claim...

I do not agree with what the terrorists have done, but surely their plight must be so great that they saw no option but to commit suiccide, both in the loss of there own followers but also in the knowledge that that act would spark a war they could not win. Many people have turned this war...
