Is Islam A Religion of Peace

[Trazor]

Many scientists now believe that free will is an illusion.

In any situation, you only have so many choices, so you are limited in your response.
Your brain then fools you into thinking it was free will, when really you have limited choice.

 

[Dan Robinson]

so your descision and choices are not yours but just a puppet on string ,right, so your not accountable for your own actions, becuase it was predetermined. try telling that to a judge in court if you commited a crime, and he would fall over spliting his sides in laughter, then get you sectioned in the slammer.

Only if you believe in God.

The rest of us are fully aware of our actions and their consequences. Religionists just blame god/the bible/faith. Yet conflate it with free will. Despite thinking that they're made 6000 years ago by an omnipotent God.

Bizarre.

thats rediculouse that you come to the conclusion that its us that blames God, when its you that has insulted him,and accuse him wrongly of being evil, no i dont think you realise the consequences of your actions.

I'm not accusing him. I'm accusing your perception of him. I don't believe he's there.

Certainly when looking at the arguments largely from religionists. Most of them, including you make no sense whatsoever.

WHY?

If God existed would he/she allow this to happen...

My Nephew is a strong believer in God and he went to Africa for 4 weeks to help these people under the stewardship of his Church. Perhaps if more people followed his example then we wouldn't be seeing this?

If their was a real caring God, then the Church and your Nephew would not need to be in Africa.

The same church that insisted on no contraception?

You've made that point before. It means nothing. You nephew is a nice chap. Are you saying he wouldn't be ding that unless he was part of the church?


Pascal's wager.

That's your trumph card obviously that leads you to believe God doesn't exist.

The Church helps him and he helps the Church. Its a two way thing.

Just out of interest, why didn't you go with him?

 

[Roger928]

why didn't you go with him?

I don't have the goodness in me nor the conviction that he does.

 

[blightymam]

I don't have the goodness in me that he does.

Fair enough.
Do you think he would have that goodness without the church also?
