Is Islam A Religion of Peace

[breadnbutter]

My parents divorced after I'd left home, and I knew it was the best thing for them, so it didn't bother me at all.

So if you weren't brought up a Christian, then that would make you a born again Christian I suppose, and that would explain a lot of your views.



I've met a lot who do it for the prestige of wanting to look good, but I've never met any doing it for the dark side yet. But I've experienced psychic attacks, and seen the dark side of human nature, and in the spiritualist movement as well.



So if Jesus came into this world to die for our sins, what happened to the billons of sinners that came before him. And sorry BNB, no one judges us, and no one condemns us, but we do judge ourselves. And if there are trillions of evil spirits, then it's a pretty crowded place up there/down there. That pretty much makes it more than all the people that have ever died.

those before Jesus,will be justified by faith, same as we can be justified by faith.
we do judge ourselfs, but God does not want us to condemn ourselfs, he wants us to know why we need him, and that comes from his truth of his word, that we have sinned against him, and he wants to bring us back into fellowship whith him again.
i put a number up, just to give you an idea, that theres a lot of fallen angels, a third of heavens angels fell at the time.
revelation tells us theres tens of thousands times ,tens of thousands,
reve 5;11
11 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;

Jesus cast out a legion of evil spirits from one man, a legion is about 6000.
6000 evil spirits in just one man.

My X next door neighbour was religious.

I used to come home late at night in the Summer months (windows ajar) & she would be sort of crying out to God . I used to hear her crying out

"Oh my god" several times , generally coincided with creeking bed springs ? than their would be what might be best described as a grunt ? assume that was her old man ??? dunno if he was religious ?



( Alright I will get my coat & leave)

 

[breadnbutter]

Not according to God botherers.


Some of whom think the universe is 6000 years old.

what do you think the population would be if man was around 100.000 thousand years, or millions of years, i suspect it would be aq lot more than the 6 billion population we have now.

the bible does not specificlly say how old the universe is, or how old the earth is, but we know that man was created about 6000 years ago. due to the genealogy of the scriptures.

when it says he made the stars also, in genesis. it does not say that was the same time as when God started his 6 day creation of life on earth.

Doesn't matter does it?
Surely you have to start again from Noah, his wife and three sons. Work it out.
Three daughters would have been better, wouldn't it?

the bible does not specificlly say how old the universe is, or how old the earth is,

Why not? Didn't they know?

but we know that man was created about 6000 years ago. due to the genealogy of the scriptures.

Of course we do.

when it says he made the stars also, in genesis. it does not say that was the same time as when God started his 6 day creation of life on earth.

How long did he have off in between?
Meanwhile, where did this light he let there be come from?

You couldn't make it up, could you? oh, wait.

That's just one book. There are plenty of others. No reason to assume that your favourite book is any more right than the others.

Does your book mention dinosaurs?

Sounds like she was experiencing the Second Coming.

 

[blightymam]

Sounds like she was experiencing the Second Coming.

That's a myth as well!

 

[Roger928]

...and therefore so is the belief

No it isn't. As it has helped him to do good.
Helping people in Africa for example. On the ground!
More than you have ever done I would suspect. You're relegated to pontificating on a forum from your soapbox. Sad.
I've always believed religion was invented to try and quell mans extremely violent tendencies.
Shame it has failed so many times but thar ye go.

When islam takes over the world it will be different! You blokes won't have to ridicule christianity anymore as it will be gone and you'll have to keep you're cake holes shut as regards an un-reformed islam. LoL.

You do know you wrote that on a real computer and that other people can see it?

Helping people in Africa

Yeah - the church has been a great help telling all those poor feckers to not use contraception thereby propagating the HIV virus. I suggest you read @Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe too.

 

[Roger928]

He was helping to build shelters for homeless people in Rwanda.
I dare say he didn't mention go forth and multiply after the shelters were built.

 

[EFLImpudence]

No it isn't. As it has helped him to do good.Helping people in Africa for example. On the ground!

You mean he wouldn't have done it without the religion?

More than you have ever done I would suspect. You're relegated to pontificating on a forum from your soapbox. Sad.

Talking to myself???

I've always believed religion was invented to try and quell mans extremely violent tendencies.

Then you are wrong - but at least you admit it was invented.

Shame it has failed so many times but thar ye go.

Not so good then.

When islam takes over the world it will be different!

Could be if you believe the propaganda.

You blokes won't have to ridicule christianity anymore as it will be gone

You blokes??? Are you a different kind of Roger?

and you'll have to keep you're cake holes shut as regards islam. LoL.

Mmmm. Very suspicious.

 

[Roger928]

Then you are wrong

I'm right.
You're turn.
You're a republican and an atheist. The enemy in other words.
Why don't you go live in ruissia or the Czech republic and spout you're nonsense there? You'd fit in chust fine.

hhhhm..... Who wrote those scriptures?

 

[EFLImpudence]

I'm right.
You're turn.

Well, you're not.
You have admitted that religion was invented and therefore is not what it portrays itself to be.
So, what is it then and why are you supporting it?
Just because it makes your nephew do good things. Why doesn't he join the Red Cross or something like that? They don't waste money on self-aggrandisement and duping the simple.

You're a republican and an atheist. The enemy in other words.

I'm having difficulty following your train of thought (I was going to say logic but there isn't any).
Is that Thatcher's use of enemy?
The enemy of what?
Unearned privilege, usurped power and myths?

Why don't you go live in ruissia or the Czech republic and spout you're nonsense there? You'd fit in chust fine.

I seem to have affected your typing finger. Are you twitching with rage?
Why should I go and live in Russia or the Czech Republic?
Why not the U.S. or France?
Why can't improvement be made here?

does it mention dinosaurs, not that i know of, the bible only gives us what we need to know, it does not tell us what we dont need to know.
