I was created by an agreement I made with God. I chose to incarnate in a specific physical body at a specific time in history, choosing my gender, my parents, location, country, economic conditions, and specific life situations for the purpose of fulfilling (or attempting to fulfill) a specific Divine plan for my life.
God and I are partners in this adventure. God is the Creative Force behind all existence, and I agreed to come into existence using that creative force so God could know itself.
Actually "humans" are all splinters of God, created by God for the purpose of God knowing and experiencing itself through a myriad of delightful ways.
Actually they compare quite well. Both are collections of make-believe stories containing lessons intended to give the reader moral grounding.
I suspect you are being rather ethnocentric in your opinion.
ok, make it 76%.....as I said before though with normal distribution that will make more than 3/4 of the police, juries, judges and correction officers Christian.
Do you even know what normal distribution is?
I know a lot of Christians that are disgusted by Phelps and Swaggart too....being disgusted is nice.......but when they start busting the criminals then let me know......I may change my mind......until then forget it.......the religion as a whole shoulders the blame.
No PLEASE post your statistics, what exactly IS normal? Sounds like a whole lot of BS guessing and assuming to me. My step dad was a cop, my brother in law is a cop, I know a whole lot of atheist and non christian ( other religions) cops. In fact I know a whole lot of scientologist cops.
I also know a WHOLE lot of Christians that make excuses for a lot of BS their fellow Christians do.
I think Christianity on the whole should take the blame for oh the witch trials, crusades, inquisition oh and lets throw the Holocaust in since he was a believer also. Oh and every nutjob that claims to be doing something in the name of God, lets throw them in to. But the Christians will just say " oh they were not real chrisitians" like there even is such a thing. Scapegoat. You are generalizing, and Judging.
Islam murdered friends of mine. Muslims hide Al Qaeda all over the world. Muslim governments send money to the families of suicide bombers.
Islam is bent on world domination, yet look at the Islamic governments......running countries of poverty, repression, and incredible cruelty.....every bit as bad as the Spanish Inquisition. Christianity got through it, but Islamists want us to revert back to the 17th century.
Sorry, but so long as Muslims support terrorists they have no respectability.
An opportunity to express my religious freedom and contempt for the proselytizers of a hateful faith perhaps.......someone has to stand up and be wiling to say "This is not true." Otherwise people hear only the one side......that Islam is of peace, that Islam supports freedom........that is a lie. Islam is first and foremost a political system and is secondarily a religious system.....Muslims simply clothe their political ambitions with religious trappings.
It isn't hate......its anger..........
You know... In their eyes we're the criminals, the thugs - the terrorists. And for the most part they have some credibility in claiming so. Criminals and terrorists are defined strictly by society.
Almost everything you can say about them they can say about us. We can say they have an illegitimate religion, so can they. You can claim they're the bad guy, and so can they. You can breed animosity towards them, and they can do the same thing. so what do you plan to accomplish here other than a battle of subjective ideals?
