Terrorist Attack in America?
So you Muslims have blown up a load of innocent Americans again and there is fear here in the UK you might try it on with the London marathon and Margaret Thatchers funereal.
You can turn around and say that you are not affiliated with these people, but the truth remains these attacks are by people who believe they are doing right by the same religion you follow. Therefore your religion is a problem and should be eradicated from the earth along with anybody who follows it.
Your thoughts?

3 AnswersLanguages8 years agoWhat does a benevolent God do about the other religions?
If you are punished in the afterlife for not embracing God, what happens to all the Egyptians and Greeks that are only following another religion because they are brought up into a different culture and will obviously reject the idea of Christianity over their own religion? Why did God create these people just for them to be punished in the afterlife? If this was a test, surely its not a very fair one?
9 AnswersReligion & Spirituality8 years agoQuestion about the Soul?
If matter can be converted into energy(Regarding photons as Mass and "Conservation of Mass) but ultimately not destroyed and not created, and obviously before you were born you did not experience Heaven or Hell. Is it not foolish to believe in a "soul" that will live for eternity in bliss or misery that can only have been created upon your birth and therefore can not come under the laws of physics as eternal matter? and therefore does not exist?
(I was more Biology than Physics, please correct me If I am wrong)
Thank You
5 AnswersReligion & Spirituality8 years agoAn interesting question for Theists?
Very interested in your thoughts.
Apparently Atheism is on the rise across the world while religion is on a steady decline. (various sources including Wikipedia)
That not really being important at this point, I was wondering, what happens when the day comes that everybody is an Atheist, Children are just going to be born into religious families and reject the idea of religion and there wont be any left.
Does that mean that IF there was a God, would he just sit back and watch every single human being on the planet for the rest of time burn in Hell for not recognizing him?
Would nobody believing in God and eventually forgetting about him cause a second coming to re-educate people?
Would bringing religion to the point of extinction not encourage God or his Son to reappear for fear of becoming a myth in the pages of history?
What does a God do if people are eventually born to look upon you as an historical figure of importance among a certain cult following but has long been forgotten. Will he just disppear?
Is there anyway we can work together to encourage this second coming and settle thousands of years of debate?
Thank you
8 AnswersReligion & Spirituality8 years agoWhat proof is there of heaven or hell?
Extracts and hear-say from a book that thinks the world is only a few thousand years old and that the world is flat doesn't count.
6 AnswersReligion & Spirituality8 years agoSpagMon have mercy on you!!?
We, the follwers of the mighty SpagMon will pray that his divine spaghettiness will have mercy upon those who have not embraced his delicious and holy temptation(Sam 2:12). For it is written those who do not embrace his sweet and satisfying body will be doomed to an eternity of drowning in an eternal bowl of unholy Spaghetti Sauce(Sam 7:17), never to be rescued by our lords swirling sweet spaghetti tentacles.
May the mighty SpagMon reach out and touch your lives, and show you the true path to righteousness and eternal life.
R'amen
