    Peace

    Thank you all. I have been having a wonderful experience so far. It's good to find people who think about the more important things in life.

    Do Pictures of Nude People Lead to Immoral Behavior?

    As a means only? There's an interesting concept. Sounds like... masturbation.

    Don't tell my wife but... LOL!

    Do Pictures of Nude People Lead to Immoral Behavior?

    First of all, I'm not preaching. I gave my answer, you questioned it, I clarified. Secondly, having sex with your wife is a natural thing. That's not the issue here. That would be a good example of your embarrassment. Embarrassment usually involves another person witnessing the embarrassing...

    Do Pictures of Nude People Lead to Immoral Behavior?

    I disagree. If a child trips another child on the playground, they may apologize. Not because someone told them what they did was wrong, but because they can see the effects caused by their action. "Hmmm I made this other kid fall and hurt himself. I don't feel good about that." The child also...

    Do Pictures of Nude People Lead to Immoral Behavior?

    What's so embarrassing about it? Embarrassing is when you slip and fall. That's something you have no control over. Embarrassing is getting in front of a crowd of people with your fly unzipped. Again, not something you can control. We are talking about a conscious act that is knowingly...

    Do Pictures of Nude People Lead to Immoral Behavior?

    If there is any guilt associated with it (such as denial) then it must be immoral. If you started masturbating when you were young and had guilty feelings then it is immoral even if you think it's okay now. You probably think it's okay now because you've been doing it for so long. Any murderer...

    Christian-Muslim Episcopalian Priest

    I think he means what you said, the end of that particular religion. I heard a Muslim Imam say that "once you add something to the religion of Islam, you are no longer practicing Islam." In essence, you are practicing something else that may have spawned from the original, but it is not, in fact...

    Christian-Muslim Episcopalian Priest

    But that is what makes the two religions one or the other. I know lots of Muslims and if you ask any of them about G-d having a son, literal or even figurative, they will give you an emphatic NO! This is the one question that will always separate a Christian from a Muslim: Who is Jesus Christ...

    isa (as) /jesus(pbuh)

    I would like to post in this thread but it appears I'm too late, as the... how shall I say?... brutality has already begun. I will say this though. It seems Muslims are a lot more excepting of Jesus than Christians are of Muhammad. Where is this tolerance and forgiveness that Christ's followers...

    Christian-Muslim Episcopalian Priest

    But the problem here is that she is choosing 2 very distinct paths. Where Christianity and Islam have a lot of similarities, they differ in the most important way: their basic belief. I believe one can be a Christian and follow some Islamic teachings or vice versa, but it is impossible to be...

    Try to change an existing church or split?

    Ah, thank you for clarifying for me. My point is that differences have always come up in the Church. Even in the formation of the Orthodox and Catholic Churches there was a disagreement along the way, that's why they both exist. As is the case with all religions. However, I disagree with the...

    Try to change an existing church or split?

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but can't all Christian sects trace their roots back to the Catholic Church? In other words, all denominations spawned Catholicism but came about as different people disagreed with various teachings. For example the Lutheran Church came about when Martin Luther took a...

    The Prohibition of Interest in Islam

    I get your point, tariqkhwaja. He's saying that in lending money, the lender should take on more risk. Lenders have no problem handing out loans when they know they're going to get a bigger return every time. Meanwhile, the poorer person, who had to borrow the money in the first place has to pay...

    One Church, one God................

    Interesting. It seems all religions have their denominations. Christianity has different sects whose basic principles differ (i.e. the Divinity of Jesus Christ). Muslims have Sunnis and Shiates. It all comes down to perception and interpretation of the scriptures we read. One interesting thing I...

    Peace

    I have joined so many worthless forums from sports to cars to music, etc. I've joined some good forums as well like web design. Finally I've joined a religious one! I have been studying World religions for some time now, but it seems to be an infinite subject of study. I hope to learn some...
