Its not as much as an evidence thing. Its more of a beliving thing. I belive in it and by the way why do you atheists questoin everything about my religion. If this religion is so bogus then why has it survived for thousands of years.

lol

But don't u find it strange how Islam and Christianity and Jewish beliefs seem very commonly alike? Apart from the belief that Islam 'Fight for Allah' if you don't mind me saying Maper. Apparently this wasn't in the religion before but i can't say. Maybe Maper can tell me more about Islam.


Sure i will.
Acording to history between all three (Islam and Christianity and Jewish) they all separated sometime when, this guy showed up.

In islam, Nabi Isa (sort of a prophet or sum, u wont get it)
In Christianity and Jewish, Jesus.

This is how the change of the ways go.

In Christianity and Jewish, they belive Jesus TRUELY was killed.
In Islam, we belive he didn't.

Thats basicly why our history, until that point, was the same.

It was all around there, yes, the few differentses of Al-Quran and the Bible.

All were changed there, such as:

1) In islam, you may not eat pork or wine
In Christianity and Jewish they do.

2) In Islam, the holy day was Friday.
In Christianity and Jewish, Sunday.

Understand what we're saying? Everything before Jesus was NEARLY EXACT between Islam and Christianity and Jewish. Thats what we have in common. Feh. :roll:

Because people have to have something to turn to when things go wrong. Its just like whoever the hell said it back there, its like peoples "safety blanket".

We would have done it if religion had not been on this earth. Its human tendency to find something to take weight off our soldiers. Its all a matter of belief and religion is something i believe in

I have nothing against people with religious beliefs. Have you ever seen the lord? Or meet him, or has he done anything for you?

Believe what you wish. Its your life. Not mine. I see religion, as hrod said, as a safety blanket. People believe in it because they want an afterlife and it explains why everything is here. (Well most things).

If religion is the answer. Then somehow in the past the religion has spilt up into different religions and been badly mutated by humans.

If god does too much, people become dependant.
If he does too little, people lose faith.

You don't believe me?

Suppose I pray to God for something I want. Say £1,000,000.
If, I then get that £1,000,000, everyone will want 'miracles' of their own...

Then how is that right?
If there is a God, he obviousaly is happy with things the way they are. Otherwise he would change things for the better, and give me, and everyone else their 'miracle'.

Then it raises other questions, how can God be happy with what the world has become?

Religion, IMO, was created to keep people under control. I mean just think of medievil times where Monarchs were 'appointed' by god. Bit of a coincidence how every person born into the same family is the 'appointed' one, huh?

People made these things up ages ago, IMO, to satisfy people's confusion of how life began. Scientific knowledge was not very advanced then.

So who wrote the bible or holy books that exist? Did they have contact with god? Why does noone ever have contact with him anymore? Who created the Devil? If god made this world and the people, why can't he make us all loving, make us realise the wrongs in evil, instead of planting trees to boot us out of paradise, lol.

Why do you believe in something that has no great influence on your life? If God exists, and He wants people to believe in Him, why not prove to the world that He exists.

And besides, where is it written in the Bible, Qu'Ran, Torah, Tenakh or whatever else religions read as their Holy Book, where is it written that God/Allah spake: "It is OK to kill they fellow man if he should calleth Me by another name?"

They all seem to go along the lines of "Thou Shalt Not Kill". So why do people fight over religion?
If God loved us so much, why does he make us suffer?
If God loved us so much, why did he give us the Eurovision Song Contest :)

What's the saying?
"Speak of the Devil and he shall appear".. OK, let's try it, shall we?
Calling Satan, hello Beelzebub! Where are you Lucifer, come on down! Car number Six-six-six where are you?

Nope. Never happened...

Even if God did exist, I'm not sure I'd trust him anyway.

1: jewish people don't eat meat either... don't know about drinking wine. In Christianity there are no regulations about food or drink except that the bible tells us to be moderate with both.

2. For Jewish people Sabbath is on Saturday.

This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Andre 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

Why do they forbid wine, or certain food? It's not hurting anyone that I'm having a little alcohol is it?

Just because an animal doesn't chew the cud doesn't make it the Devil.

Talk about rules for the sake of rules...
