    Would you marry a gay couple...

    There is a very big difference between knowledge of scripture, which, I assure you, I do have, and one's opinion of the matter. Most often here, because I separate my teachings of theology from this forum, as this forum is for my relaxation and edification from other faiths POV. So I express...

    Hatred of Jews is poisoning Islam

    Ok, I went back and read that. I would say that for one thing, the poster is someone who speaks English as a second language. I can see where you would find what he or she said out of line however but I would also say that given the language barrier, maybe he or she needed to be more clear...

    Why does it seem that God never intervenes in Human Suffering

    Its ok Skeptic. We learned a great deal from that, which may seem cavalier but truthfully, my aunt learned that her husband was an idiot...he fell asleep smoking...and he was charged with child endangerment. She quit smoking that same day. Good thing, no? But ultimately, we all have stories...

    Why does it seem that God never intervenes in Human Suffering

    StFrankenstein. You stated that : How is that rude? You speak like and atheists, your views are like and atheists and you are as awkward and angry as an atheists so to assume you are an atheist is perfectly acceptable. All you need is to correct me and I will no longer think you are an...

    Why does it seem that God never intervenes in Human Suffering

    I have never blamed God, nor did I encourage my aunt to do anything, given that I was a child and had no influence over her choices at the time. I don't believe in blaming God nor in assigning wrongdoing to a character developed by Milton and Dante. I'm sorry if you see it that way but if you...

    Would you marry a gay couple...

    No one rules the world and imo, your views are the height of hubris. God is the only one who can pass judgment on anyone. It is not up to you. You certainly don't seem to express the views of one who lives and breathes the word of God.

    Would you marry a gay couple...

    Once again, many people who happen to be gay are also Christian. Whether that is something you see as wrong per how you view or understand God is between you and God. You do not pass judgment nor tell another couple that what they believe is wrong. I belong to a Unity church near me which is...

    Would you marry a gay couple...

    Perhaps the two people who happen to be gay are also Christian. You don't speak for God. What you post here as well as below is your belief, which you're entitled to. But it does not mean that that is truly what God would agree with or no. The law states that you and those who are...

    It was their loss. And what a refreshing outlook. Well said. An excellent post.

    Why does it seem that God never intervenes in Human Suffering

    I have been posting here with Frank for some time now, well over a year or two and I have never really know him to be angry in his posts on this forum. And your last statement is patently false. Even if it were true, which I have never known Frank to state he believes, what business is that of...

    Why does it seem that God never intervenes in Human Suffering

    What Frank said is what I would have said and I do believe in God. In your world, God is about sin and over coming satan and so on. My faith has a different view. Children who die horrifically, such as the two cousins of mine died in the fire, did so because they chose that life lesson. I...

    Why does it seem that God never intervenes in Human Suffering

    You state you don't want "satan" to see that the issue of children starving or being raped by pedophiles bothers you. Isn't that a bit like burying your head in the sand? Years ago, my aunt and uncle had a house fire. My aunt ran upstairs to get her children. She watched as one burned to...

    Hatred of Jews is poisoning Islam

    My question regarding this hatred is why? Why do the two races, or all of them for that matter, need to hate? What is it about Black or tan or white or pink polka dotted skin colors that breeds hatred? Are we all do damned different that we have absolutely nothing in common and the only end...

    Hatred of Jews is poisoning Islam

    I don't think anyone is trying to reduce any of your legitimate concerns regarding your faith, our culture, etc. At the least, I sure is not me Rosends. As I said, I am aware that many do do this. Its unfair and you have every right to stand firm against it. Who is stating that you don't...

    Hatred of Jews is poisoning Islam

    I agree that in the past groups, whether Christian, Jewish or Muslim, have tried to enforce their beliefs on others. I know this first hand from being NA and listening to my grandmother talk about the alleged well meaning Christians who would come and brow beat her and her family as being...

    Hatred of Jews is poisoning Islam

    I understand that that is what you believe and I would not say you are wrong. I would say that what you believe is simply that, belief, and cannot be proven in any scientific method we currently have. In Buddhism, we try to be kind and do what you call good deeds to learn and to achieve...

    Hatred of Jews is poisoning Islam

    I am curious about what I emphasized Rosends. Why evil? Why can it simply not be misunderstandings and differing views on what is written? Now, I grant you that stating he knows more than you do about Judaism is an affront to you but is it not possible to try to find some common ground such...
