    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...

    Can theological difference between the Gospels and the Qur'an be resolved?

    This question is mainly for adherents of a Theistic religion. Can theological difference between the Gospels and the Qur'an be resolved? Let's consider the Surah of Maryam or the 12th chapter of the Qur'an titled Mary. We have the story of Mary and her relationship with God as she is informed...

    Christ Has returned, what should have we looked for?

    This thread is simple. This is about the promise of Christ Return. From a Baha'i point of view this event has happened and was Fulfilled in the Messages of the Bab ("Gate") and Baha'u'llah ("Glory of God", or "Glory of the Lord"). As many await this event, both Christians and Muslims, how did...

    The significance of 1844 in Bible Prophecy

    As we are now in the year 2017, the year 1844 seems to be now a distant past. In reality it is only recent History and the early to mid 1800's were a time of great expectation. The world was starting to change rapidly in thought, technologies and science. Many signs that the Bible foretold were...

    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...

    Can you prove Islam is true or false? How?

    I've gotten so tired of not hearing arguments from muslims when I talk to them. Or at least arguments that aren't just straight up propaganda that anyone with eyes could easily see through so here. Please Muslims try to demonstrate that Islam is true . Don't just say "Muhammad was such a good...

    Why Isn't monotheism the first form of spirituality?

    I’ve often wondered why monotheism isn’t the first form of religion we see historically if things like christianity are true. You would think if God only wanted us to worship him and would punish us otherwise he’d be sure to be the very first spiritual concept humans understood. Of course...

    Read through the entire bible in 7-10 days

    I've just recently finished going through the god delusion by Richard Dawkins. Honestly I've never liked Dawkins and I've found his writing style to be almost unbearable. So we're looking for a change of pace. My intention is to read through the entire Christian bible in either 7 or 10 days. I...

    Can you gain faith by praying?

    What I mean is could someone like me who doesn't believe in any sort of supernatural entity whether it be a ghost or God gain faith by praying? How exactly would that work?

    What are the best arguments in favor of theism and against atheism?

    What arguments do you believe point to there being a God or gods and why do you think this makes more sense than the idea that there are no gods? I am personally a non-believer but I would greatly like to hear arguments against this position and possibly find a religion that at least makes...

    How does one go about obtaining faith?

    I am a man interested in faith but I find I have none. So I am curious, how is someone without faith supposed to go about obtaining faith?

    World Peace, Religion and Poverty
