(I'ma gonna stick this here, cuz why not? It'll be the most interesting place for sure...)

IF you believe in reincarnation (and yes, some Jews do) then were you a human before?

If not, do you have a human soul now? If yes, how?
If not ...If you were a butterfly before, do you have a butterfly soul now?

Personally, I don't think I have a human soul. You all are incomprehensible, that's why.

For you that are not a Muslim or a Sufi.

What is your understanding of the two teachings of Sufism vs Islam ?
Why do you feel the way you do toward the two teachings?

This thread is not about right/wrong between the two just what your view is.

I don't trust what you or anyone else claims about god.

It might be personal, if you attempt to sway public policy to be in keeping with your religious beliefs.

Not only don't I need god, I think that - on the balance - theistic religion these days does more harm than good.

Your belief in the perfection of Abrahamic scripture seems as silly to me as if you told me you believed in unicorns.

Your belief that morality comes from religion strikes me as both laughable and dangerous.

I don't trust what you or anyone else claims about God.

It's not personal. If I made a claim about God, I wouldn't expect anyone to trust it.

Why should I trust what you or anyone says about God?

Also I suppose it means I haven't found a need for God to go about my life. IOW, everything seems to work the same with or with out God.

Others claim to need God. I can't say much about that other than I don't understand it.
I suppose there is a psychological need some have. All I can say to...

For those who know what I stand for, you might be able to guess what this post is about. In my faith, we believe in all the stories of the Bible as things that did actually happen. What some people get puzzled by is the account in Genesis where stars were created on the fourth day of creation. In Genesis 1:1 it says that Elohim created the heavens and the earth. This for me includes the planets. But we go by the gap theory in which there may be thousands or even million years that elapsed...

Name an ethical statement made or action performed by a person of faith that could not have been made or performed by a nonbeliever.

Name a wicked statement made or action performed precisely because of religious faith?

Thesis: correct interpretation of the Holy Bible needs the correct interpreter.

Proof: The Bible does not interpret itself. Each fact needs interpretation. Bible is one huge fact. For example, there is written in Bible, that God inflicts unimaginable evil on sinners. No! God is not the source of evil spirit!

Hence, the atheists have no God-given right to interpret "There is God" verses of the Bible as "there is no god".

Hence, the non-Christians have no God-given right to interpret "Jesus...

Disclaimer: Tho I worship Lucifer I am not a LaVeyan Satanist. LaVeyan Satanists are atheists not theistic and have a very very different theology to me. I'm still learning about it and have yet to finish reading on their theology and so far it has been thoughtprovoking reading about it. I just found this interesting and wanted to discuss it. I'm putting it in the debate section cuz im sure it'll spark debate.
I am currently reading the Satanic bible. It's thought provoking and I can agree...

Do the Jehovah's Witnesses believe the king James version of the bible is a bad translation of scripture?I believe it is an ok go to book.When it comes to scripture.

There are infinitely many proofs for Jesus's existence, and almost none of them are unanimously refuted. On the other hand, all disproofs of Jesus's existence are unanimously refuted. Hence, only one option remains:
Jesus is unanimously proven.
