[QUOTE="Donkky12, post: 75039892, member: 428517"] I still have burning questions continued from my [URL='https://www.christianforums.com/threads/hello-i-need-answers.8163460/page-2#post-75039830']intro thread[/URL]. Although some of questions are somewhat answered i want to get more perspectives. A member suggests that i post here as threads in this forum tend to get more views. So here goes my friends. 1. Why Christianity? Even religion has their own miracles. [LIST] [*]Thaipusam (Hinduism) - extreme piercing like they have no pain [*]Taoism - God possessing their body. E.g. Monkey god possess their body and suddenly they can climb lamp posts, knife cut their skin etc. and they have no pain. [*]Buddhism - fortune telling monks (which i have experienced myself as stated in my intro thread) [*]Islam - need no explanation? Look at the annual pilgrimage to Mecca, Saudi Arabia (Mecca) and Ramadan, where muslim fast and not eat. [/LIST] So why Christianity? Why is jesus the only god? 2. Big Bang but the world is too perfect or complicated to be universally ordered - i.e. God made things like this and we humans have no scientific explanation? [LIST] [*]What if it really is a big coincidence that big bang created life through massive atoms exploding everywhere. We humans are just lucky to get the better ones (mixture of atoms [?]).
