    Video by BuzzFeed Rachel, a Satanist, and Matt, a Christian, spends the weekend handcuffed together eating, partying, getting a Tarot reading, sleeping, going to Church, talking about religion and being interviewed by BuzzFeed in order to spread a message we should all keep in mind as human...

    What Isn't The Gospel?

    I certainly see a lot of takes on what the Christian gospel is supposed to be, including mass attendance * obeying one's priest or pastor * following the Ten Commandments of Exodus 20 * loving neighbor as self * do the best you can * water baptism * Bible reading * nightly repentance and sorrow...

    Evangelism as a means of authentication: An atheistic view of the psychology behind faith

    Humanity has been plagued by an inescapable lack of meaning since its inception. When faced with such overwhelming lack of direction, we have sought to construct understandings of reality to explain and provide purpose to our lives, and as an extension, human existence. Everything we hold...

    America's Changing Religious Landscape

    I found this article quite fascinating. America's Changing Religious Identity Christianity has sharply declined, especially among white Americans (dropping 38% since 1976), while Christianity among non-white Americans appears to be static. The religiously unaffiliated population appears to be...

    Hypocrisy in religion

    I was wondering what people's thoughts were on hypocrisy in religion, particularly Christianity. Many people talk about the hypocrisy of believers not living as they claim to believe. But in Christianity itself, hypocrisy can be observed as well. In addition to contradicting itself, the Bible...

    Christian Jainism?

    I'm interested in Jainism and Buddhism, but I kind of believe in the trinity, in a "Christian polytheism" sort of way, but that's the only part of Christianity I'm interested in aside from the moral teachings. I guess my question is are these religions at all compatible, and is it wrong to just...

    Voodoo

    I'm personally studying and will learn more about Vodun. I wanted to discuss the religion Voodoo and if anyone has any real knowledge about it. There's so much misinformation about this religion, if you want to practice it you must be initiated and learn from a teacher or teachers in real life...

    The Impregnation of Virgin Mary by The Devil

    What if Virgin Mary was visited by a Spirit? No, not a Holy Spirit. But by an unholy spirit? The most unholy of all Spirits, The Devil? I am writing a book on it, and in the process of publishing it on amazon. If they reject it, then i will publish it on archive.org and free ebooks sites. If...

    Could Christianity and Islam ever reach a consensus?

    Could Christianity and Islam ever reach a consensus in regards to Jesus' identity? If no, which of the two religions is more likely to disappear first? If yes, which of the two religions do you think should and will make the bigger compromise? Will Christians accept Jesus as a divine prophet...

    Was Jesus Death Predetermined By God?

    When Jesus hung on the cross, he was prohibited from conducting a direct selection in order to continue his existence. Does his death confirm the outcome of the Final Selection Thought Experiment (see link) was predetermined?

    Jesus Christ the monk

    So, I have found a couple of Documentaries that show the supposed life of Jesus in places like Kashmir in India and I know that the Resurrection is very central to Christian theology. What do you as a Christian think of these historical records in terms of your faith?

    Is modern Christianity based more on the teachings of Paul than those of Jesus?

    My belief is that it is. I'll try to express my thoughts on the subject in a few separate points to try to organize them. 1. Jesus' death In Romans, Paul says: Hebrews, which is generally accepted to be written by a disciple of Paul, says: From these passages, the central premise of...

    When is terrorism justified? Can taking away someone's rights be justified?

    When is it justified to use terror tactics to achieve a goal? When does it become the obvious next step to take hostages or plant bombs? Is it possible to threaten civilians and still remain justified? If you religion is being oppressed? If someone is mocking everything you hold sacred? Is it...

    Did the Pagans Fight like the Christians?

    We all know how in the past Christians of different denominations have fought, like the Protestants vs. Catholics. So I'm asking if the Pagans also did this? I consider "Paganism" Greek Paganism, Egyptian Polytheism, Norse Paganism, Babylonia, Sumerian, etc. and their gods/goddesses. I'm asking...

    Not sure where to go from here? (questioning my religion)

    Hi I'm new to here, so really not sure if this is the right place to post this.. Sorry if it isn't. I was born into a Christian family, I definitely believe in God or a higher power but I can't help but question these beliefs I have grown up with. I have been reading about Islam and I have...

    The genocide of the Christian population in the cradle of Christianity. How do we respond?

    Today we observe a terrifying picture: the two-thousand year Christian presence in the Middle East and Africa is rapidly disappearing. According to figures by the Centre for the Study of World Christianity, in 2016 alone there were killed 90 thousand Christians, that is, every six minutes a...

    Gentiles in Christianity

    Hello When Gentiles read the New Testament, what do you think of parts such as Jesus and the Gentile Woman (where Jesus was not inclined to help the woman because she was not Jewish) and Paul's letter to the Romans where he reminds Gentiles that they are a branch of a wild olive tree, and the...

    Martin Luther King’s Dreams of Christianity

    “As you know, if I were standing at the beginning of time, with the possibility of general and panoramic view of the whole human history up to now, and the Almighty said to me, ‘Martin Luther King, which age would you like to live in?’ ---I would take my mental flight by Egypt through, or rather...
