    let's talk for a moment why prophets make no sense

    i think the idea of prophets it's completely irreconcilable with the idea that god loves us equally and that he wanted to spread his word. [note to readers: i will use Jesus as an example here but it would work exactly the same with all other prophets ] It can be that their revelation was...

    suppose you're 100% sure there's a god, an allmighty god, that created the universe and all the rest, and this god asks you to kill, rape, torture and plunder in his name. if you worship him he will send you in heaven where all sort of good things happens to you. if you refuse to worship him he...

    Taqiya vs martirdom: two different approaches

    it may be interesting to confront these two different doctrines that christianity and islam suggest when their members find themselves in a danger situation.

    why would God reveal himself in texts?

    i mean back in the days when sacred texts were written how many people were actually able to read? like 1 in a 1000? less than that? it's the same as if in todays standards god would reveal his words in C++ computer code.

    wealth in christianity: how can you reconcile wealthy religious people?

    Jesus was pretty fond on that: he didn't like rich people. not one bit. Matthew 6:19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth...

    Jesus sacrifice is completely pointless

    Do we really need a man to suffer, to be tortured, be humiliated and ultimately be crucified and killed ( temporarily ) in order to follow him? Of course we dont. We just need a just man that talks sense possibly with a bit of charisma. We follow all sort of people for all sorts of reasons all...

    Is there any religious argument that actually stands when scrutinized with reason?

    In all these years debating with religious people I ve never been faced with an argument that I ended up to find challenging or hard to dismantle. They go from the clever ones to nonsense one ( like "cause I feel it in my heart" ) to the most stupid and elementary ones ( like the classic "what...

    Why dont Christians kill their childrens immediately after they baptize them?

    This life is transitory, true life starts after you die, and if you've been good enough you go to heaven. Now if you baptize your children in that moment he is sin free, why not kill him right than? That would prevent him to be exposed to all the moral corruption of this world, basically you...

    are christian people truly humble?

    in christianity ( and i suspect christianity is not the only religion that does that ) being humble is a highly praised virtue. In christianity Pride is one of the seven deadly sins, and is probably considered the worst of them. Now let's compare for example their religious view of the world...

    the "there's actual science in the kuran" argument

    i always hear people talkin about the fact that there's actual science present inside the kuran. i was wondering, since there are muslim members in this forum, if its their belief too that there are scientific principles ( unkonwn at the time it was written, otherwise is pointless ) in the kuran...

    the YHWH, God, Allah revelations: a simple question

    Basically YHWH, God and Allah are the same entity who just revealed himself multiple times ( in different times ) trough his prophets. my simple question is: why? why 3 times, with 3 different names, giving birth to 3 different books in the very same region of the planet? Wasn't he able ( in...

    please don't be immediately offended and keep on reading cause this is something you've probably never read about. many of us reject god cause he seems inconsistent: i mean, the fact that he is so intelligent and powerful to be able to create effortlessly the whole universe from the small...

    ALBaghdadi vs Moses: a comparison

    we all ( at least i hope ) consider Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi ( the Calif of Isis ) probably one of the top 10 evil men alive, if not the most evil. He rapes, kills, massacre, enslaves, torture, terrorize ( well not exactly him with his own hands but you know what i mean )....majority of muslims too...

    a couple of points about the ten commandments

    If i can show my point i would be highly interested in what you have to say about this. The ten commandments: we all probably know what i'm talking about so i'll try to keep it short. Exodus in a nutshell: "Jews live a life of slavery under the egypitans. God help Moses to free his people and...
