I CAN'T SEE THE GOD MANY BELIEVERS SEE -- AND YET I HAVE HAD EXPERIENCES
certain experiences that indicate to me that something exists beyond the usual sensual perceptions.

WILL I FIND AN ANSWER AS 081121 WONDERS?
to the question posed in the previous post. how come a religion that should passed into the dim mists of history centuries ago still holds such influence over today's belief? history. this religion held an iron grip on belief for centuries. even those who split away did not discard the belief system...

WHY DON'T I GET SOME MORE CHRISTIANS PISSED OFF AT ME
a comment to gomedome -- got me to thinking. there was a man lived about 2,000 years ago. he was given the Jewish name of Yeshua (or something like it). he became very famous. his name was romanized into "Jesus" and a second added to it, "Christ". so a lot of times when we speak of this man, we call...

YOU DON'T SPEAK FOR ALL CHRISTIANS!
wish you'd get that into your bunker thick noggin. you just speak the loudest. there's a broad spectrum of Christian belief. the most populous denomination accepts nobody except their own belief system -- not even Christians. We'll start with that and then let it stand alone for our purposes because... Sign in to see full entry.

HOW THE BIBLE CAME ABOUT (reprise)
The best known information as far as I know. I am basically translating, if you will, what I information have received through various media, so this is something of a third or fourth hand explanation, meaning that it is probably not perfect.

ARE MOSLEMS VIOLENT MORE THAN CHRISTIANS?
we've done this before. look in my Israeli-Palestinian conflict -- HISTORY OF THE JEWS IN PALESTINE FROM ROMAN TIMES -- and check some of the history of how Jews were treated by Muslims and Christians.

THE DEADLY SINS OF CHRISTIANITY
