Who rules the world Jesus (a Christianity-god) or Krishna (a Hinduism-god)???!!!

Jai, I am personally not offended by her. She's just expressing her belief. It's a free country, no? If someone believes I'm going to hell, and have a bunch of stupid beliefs, so? She's not pointing a gun at my head.
Please excuse me but I believe I am a he not a she. (I believe the physical evidence)

I'm sorry, I didn't realise that, and I have no idea why. Haven't read many of your posts nor checked your Profile. Not the first time for a gender misunderstanding here on RF, nor will it be the last. Carry on.

Oh, I have regard for the truth. Enough to not fear claims of some people having the truth to yield against me, certainly.

I believe I know you well enough to know what you regard. I believe you meant "wield" not "yield."
I believe you have no fear of what people say although sometimes you can be a bit sensitive. I believe we do share the belief that claims must be backed up by evidence.

I don't believe it makes any difference when debating. A person still must provide evidence no matter what gender. RF used to have gender on the sidebar but perhaps the managers felt it was irrelevant. I suppose it is just a matter of polite reference..

In the opposite direction, I know when I say that I personally don't believe that Jesus even existed, that some people get offended and some don't. It's just POV, nothing else. All have good reasons (personal reasons) for believing what they believe.

I suppose you're right. I'm just tired of all the "false-gods" schlock that's thrown around all too often. :( We're suppose to accept it, but yet we hear about "Christians being persecuted". They have no idea what persecution is. It probably is best to be like a duck.

According to Scripture, Satan is the god (ruler) of this world - 2 Corinthians 4:4. Scripture gives Satan the credit for earth's woes - Revelation 12:12; Psalms 37:10-11

We are to be given salvation by a deity who can't even keep one rock away from the devil?

Why would God even want to keep the Earth away from Satan? Satan may be fulfilling the will of God and embracing the destiny God desired for it.

I am like you though too. Today I felt like being tolerant. Other days not so much. Maybe its about picking fights. Compared to hundreds of children going home bawling from denigration in textbooks, or outright killing of Hindus because they're Hindu, a low attendance discussion forum seems the lesser annoyance.

Curse your Canadian laidbackness!

Very interesting question ^ above ^.
According to Scripture, God created Earth ( Not for Satan ) but for us humans - Psalms 115:16
God's will ( purpose ) found at Genesis 1:28 is that all on Earth be descendants from father Adam and mother Eve and be earth's caretakers or caregivers.
So, how could Satan be fulfilling God's will/purpose for our Earth ? Rather, Satan brings ' woe ' to Earth - Revelation 12:12
God wants No one to ' perish ' ( be destroyed ) <- that is God's will/purpose for Earth. - 2 Peter 3:9
Only those who bring ruin to Earth will be ruined - Revelation 11:18 B; Psalms 92:7
If Satan was fulfilling the will of God, then wouldn't we see global Peace on Earth today ?_______ No wars <- Isaiah 2:4; Micah 4:3-4

I agree with you that Christians in America do not face real persecution. However, there are some places in the world where they really are.

Oh, of course I also agree with you that I am tired of the "false-god" and "real scriptures" nonsense.

Read the following part of the post...
I came to say... that none of the above rule the earth nor the universe
Sshhhhh. Don't say that. It will upset many theists terribly. They tend to get excited so easily.
At least have some chocolate handy to assuage their wounded feelings.

Where? Is it limited to Islamic countries, or are there other places too? Myanmar, perhaps?

Paarsurrey must be chuckling at what he started here.
Coptic Christians in Egypt aren't exactly having a blast... well unless a passing Muslim goes off...
