    The Resurrection: Was it a surprise? Or did Jesus know it was coming?

    Gospel of John, Chapter Two, Verse Nineteen: Jesus said, "Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days." This is just one of the prophecies Jesus has made that seem to point to the idea of him having known, from time, that he'd be resurrected. Or, at least, that's how the Gospel...

    Why do some christians not believe in facts...

    It's like the anti-spiderman fallacy.

    Is this a Non-Abrahamic Monotheistic Religion

    Have you tried looking at Sikhism?

    peter vs paul

    It still blows my mind, every time, when I think about the fact that people place more emphasis on Paul (who came in later, after Jesus' death, and never even met Jesus) than on Peter and James (who were clearly given authority by Jesus). If Paul was to come and have authority, wouldn't Jesus...

    True, but a "religion" is more complex than simply believing in A or in B, wouldn't you say?

    Many Christians make God, or at least Jesus, in their own image...

    But this is self-evident. Everyone makes God in their own image, according to what they expect/want Him to be like.

    This, too, is true. But then they might pop! :eek:

    Newbieitus Vapidexia

    It wouldn't surprise you to know that you probably triggered old Jayhawker to make this thread, right? True, true. It's just basic science. What we could do is decrease the temperature... that might work.

    Would it hurt them to lurk a bit before posting?

    Family of Abraham

    Oh. Well, in that case, I'll have to agree with you until someone can provide evidence to the contrary. It seems that the Holy Land really is for Abraham's Children, which includes Arabs.

    Family of Abraham

    That's cool, but what are we debating here?

    Does Matthew 25:14-46 teach non-Christians can go to heaven?

    Yes, it does. Compassion, after all, is the only "true" religion. Also, I'd like you to check out Luke 12:35-48, in which he says that the people who are unaware of the truth (whatever that truth may be) and transgress are punished much less than the people who are aware and still transgress...

    Hell is.....

    ... entirely self-made. Most people are in "Hell" right now.

    Are the Abrahamic Religions the only ones with an eternal punishment?

    Well, Zoroastrianism isn't Abrahamic, yet some Zoroastrians seem to believe in eternal punishment. That might be where the Abrahamics took it from, actually.

    Chinese gov't trying to poison the Dalai Lama

    I'm very curious about what will happen when the current Dalai Lama passes away. Will there be two successors? One from the Chinese government and one appointed by the Religion?

    Why are religious people more disgustingly stupid, barbaric, and evil?

    Because people don't want to discuss serious things.

    Not sure where else to put this...

    You're looking for Unitarian Universalism, as the above poster stated. Or, if you want something more Christian, look for Liberal Quakers.

    Creating your own Bible?

    What about Ecclesiastes?

    Your opinion on Why Christianity Must Change Or Die?

    I know, I know. I'm fairly familiar with Spong. But you know, as well as I do, that Jesus never taught virgin birth, or that he was the "Saviour". Or the Trinity, or any (non-Jewish) rituals... or 90% of what's taught in "Christianity". But he DID teach God as "ground of being", I'd say.

    Why are religious people more disgustingly stupid, barbaric, and evil?

    Because not only are they stupid, but they're also dumb.
