    The Bible on women in a church

    I am curious to know what the general Christian population thinks of this passage in the New Testament that says: "women should keep silent in the churches. For they are not permitted to speak, but should be in submission, as the Law also says." - 1 Corinthians 14:34 Do you think women...

    What if you're wrong

    What was so difficult to understand? I am sorry if you can't understand "Some religions say if you are Christian you will be doomed", but then I guess that's what happens when you have the hubris of believing your religion is the right one! Which is the foundation of accepting most religions in...

    What if you're wrong

    Not necessarily, what if Christianity is wrong, yet another religion is right, which says you as a Christian will be doomed. It's rather dogmatic to think Christianity is the only religion which may possibly be right don't you think? ;)

    Do you believe because your parents did? If so, WHY?

    I see, thank you for your feedback

    What if you're wrong

    My opinion: To be rather honest, I cannot say with certainty that I am right, in fact I could very well be wrong! But it is the best conclusion I've came up with, the conclusion is that religion is man made, I have found great peace and happiness in being free of faith and unreasonable beliefs...

    Do you believe because your parents did? If so, WHY?

    That's fantastic, but the OP was clearly directed at people who do follow what their parents believe. That's what I was curious to know.. otherwise I could just look at myself I don't follow what my parents' beliefs either, I researched different religions myself to realize religion is basically...

    God or no God, heads or tails?

    I don’t think the question should be god or no god, but rather the God that is portrayed though holy books, or a supreme power out there that nobody has any way of ever being in contact with. From personal experience I can say that life without belief in the God as portrayed though...

    Do you believe because your parents did? If so, WHY?

    Do you know what it's called? I'd be interested to do more research on it. I do admit my knowledge of the non-Abrahamic religions is not very strong.

    Do you believe because your parents did? If so, WHY?

    Really? And by denouncing bigotry you mean attacking anyone who doesn't follow your beliefs. Well I guess the sacred Jewish book of Deuteronomy (Devarim) makes a lot of sense now. Deuteronomy 13:13-18 ‘Corrupt men have gone out from among you and enticed the inhabitants of their city, saying...

    Afterlife Exists says Top Scientist

    You call the NDE of one man evidence?! WOW!! Well, by virtue of that logic everything ever said about life after death is true because there is "Evidence" for it!

    Do you believe because your parents did? If so, WHY?

    If you can't face the fact and it irritates you, then you have option of avoiding it :)

    Did Christianity borrow practices from pagans or is it the other way around?

    It depends who you direct the question to. I’ve met many Christians who believe their religion to be authentic and very unique in the sense that it is the only true religion. With that said there is no way they would ever agree that ideas would be borrowed from paganism. In my opinion...

    Do you believe because your parents did? If so, WHY?

    I agree, the problem in this case is deeper than religion, but can we also agree that there is a lot of brainwashing done in the name of religion?

    Do you believe because your parents did? If so, WHY?

    You're right English is not my first language; in fact with the exception of a few words I did not speak any English until I was in the 6th grade. With respect to the word being misused, I stand corrected, since I did misuse it in this threat at one point when responding very quickly. However...

    Do you believe because your parents did? If so, WHY?

    Yes I said very clearly, that when a 2nd grade child is being told to yell death to Israel, he is being brainwashed to hate a Nation that he has had no interaction with. I think I was very clear in making this statement. I was one of those kids and I was clearly brainwashed to hate Israel, until...

    Do you believe because your parents did? If so, WHY?

    Yes as a matter of fact I do, it was mentioned by the people who beheaded Jack Hensley, and it is brought up all throughout maddrasas to justify killing non-Muslims.. I worked in Saudi Arabia and I know for a fact that this verse plays a role in creating hatred against non-believers!

    True but that depends on what part of the world

    Do you believe because your parents did? If so, WHY?

    I agree! So go tell it to those who are Xenophobic! Thank you but most of my family is Muslim, including my parents, so very nice of you to call me Islamophobic when I am telling you the facts and actual events!

    Do you believe because your parents did? If so, WHY?

    And there you go again with the name calling. I am simply telling you what is being taught to children and where the source of the brainwashing is.

    Do you believe because your parents did? If so, WHY?

    That's great, but your insults don't offend me. I am free of faith for a reason, because superstition holds back the mind. As I said, if you intend on insulting me solely because I share my personal childhood experiences of having been brainwashed to hate and breaking away from that later on in...
