    The complexity of God made simple

    If you haven't checked it out already, you definitely should. This 8-minute video explains the complexity of God in a somewhat simple way. Great for atheists, Jews and all other faiths that find the Godhead confusing. Let me know whether you agree or disagree. God bless you!

    Does the Bible mention Islam?

    You would think that if a book such as the Bible has significant prophetic content it would mention Islam if it were a true religion from G-d. Even if it were a false religion, wouldn't it get a mention? Lets consider the facts that I hope we can all agree on. The Bible was written by multiple...

    There is a Biblical calendar. And a Rabbinical calendar. Which one are we following? And which one should we follow?

    Which Messianic verses of Isaiah refer to Christ?

    Christians believe that Jesus was the Messiah foretold in the Tanakh. The book of Isaiah is one of the most cited books. I’m wanting to better understand the reasons for and against the fulfilment of certain verses. Anyone with anything sensible and respectful to say is welcome to contribute...

    ISO a Jewish person for paper inspiration

    I am looking to talk with a Jewish person for information regarding practices and beliefs for a paper I need to write for a religion class I am taking. Must be able to interact and provide a good synopsis of Judaism. This is not to be a debate but rather a discussion of religious differences.

    To what extent did Muhammad meet the Messianic Requirements of Judaism and Christianity?

    This is another discussion mainly for Theists. Many Christians and Jews are expecting the advent of another great religious leader. The expectations within Judaism relate to their sacred texts, for example a book in the Tanakh called Isaiah. For some Christians the question is framed around the...

    The Theology of The Holocaust

    How do you think about the Holocaust, theologically? There's an interesting article here, about the Holocaust. I find it almost to think about from a theological standpoint. How about you?

    For the followers of the Abrahamic Faiths, do you believe in the same God?

    This is my personal belief and I believe my Jewish, Christian, and Muslim brothers and sisters may not agree with me but me being a Muslim, I believe that we do worship the same God and here are my reasons: 1) Jews believe that their God is the God of Moses and Muslims believe in the very same...

    The Old Testament. Have Christians written a fair portion of it themselves?

    As I understand it, 24 books are in the Hebrew Bible used in Judaism. There are 39 books in the Old Testament as part of the Holy Bible used in Christendom. Are 15 of the Old Testament books actually written by Christians themselves and passing it along and credited as being Jewish in origin...

    America's Changing Religious Landscape

    I found this article quite fascinating. America's Changing Religious Identity Christianity has sharply declined, especially among white Americans (dropping 38% since 1976), while Christianity among non-white Americans appears to be static. The religiously unaffiliated population appears to be...

    A few random tidbits from the biography of Muhammad.

    Last night I randomly looked through the biography of Muhammad and found a few lines that were either messed up, funny or just plain ol weird. I randomly flipped to a page in my little biography of muhammad to read this line " It is foolish to blame the Muslims for the horrible consequences...

    IS there an eastern/pagan solution to our religious delimas?

    I've met people who were once Christians or Jews among other things that turned to eastern traditions or paganism because of the issues they have had with their original religion. I'm sure someone will be tempted to say "Well atheism was the original belief they had." because you aren't...

    Difficulties when it comes to Polytheism and me.

    I have come to discover that I rather like polytheism. Well at least certain gods from certain pantheons. The issue I personally have is actually believing in or doing anything with these gods when I can think of no rational arguments for said gods actually being a thing. It seems to me...

    How would the discovery of alien life change religion?

    Do you think if we ever discovered alien life that religion would change? Would this maybe cause some creationists for instance to turn away from this way of thinking? What about pagans, would this change paganism at all?

    Religious quizzes.

    I like taking surveys and doing these little quizzes online. AT one point I had even signed up with okay cupid just so I could keep answering their little matchmaking questions. Any way I had found a couple of these quizzes having to do with religion/spirituality/paganism and just thought I...

    Does Jesus's sacrafice work from a jewish perspective?

    Does the idea of Jesus sacrificing himself make sense from a jewish theological perspective? I personally don't think the idea of a god man sacrificing himself to himself for things he put in us himself makes no sense but that that is beside the point. Can a man die for another man's or indeed...

    Making contact with the Gods

    I was watching videos on various pagan traditions and there was a whole series of videos from different content creators on their matron and patron deities. People were more or less talking about having mother and father figure deities. They also talked about how they came to those deities as...

    Can God change his mind? in otherwords do things like christianity and Islam make sense?

    The God of Judaism is more or less the inspiration or supposed to be the same god the Christians and muslims worship. See here is the thing that gets me about that. Why would God randomly start new religions? Why is Christianity so different to Judaism? Why would god allow 3 new religions to...
