Do You Believe In God?

[TheDarkGreninja]

Is God male/female (+offtopic)?
Are Muslims satan?
Do Muslims hate gays?
A language barrier causing someone to throw insults left and right

Good question, actually. I'm inclined to say "no" because of the St Patrick explanation but at this point it's just easier and probably more correct to say "yes"

well then...

Christians and jews wouldn't go to hell. Does Christianity count as polytheism since jesus is gods son

The Navajo believe that they begin a journey before reaching true peace.

I was talking about Religions in general.

Man vs Woman. Why god is male etc. And also some talk on LGBT rights.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------


A goddess then that instantly disqualifies it.

Then you are looking down on people with other faith and woman.

Can we get back to the god vs no god argument now? I miss it.

I'm not against a goddess just polytheism in general.

17As Jesus started on His way, a man ran up and knelt before Him. “Good Teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?” 18“Why do you call Me good?Jesus replied, “No one is good except God alone.19You know the commandments: ‘Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not bear false witness, do not defraud, and honor your father and mother.’”…

Can you explain this @UniqueGeek?

The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are three persons, but one God. This post explains it better than I can:

I am pretty sure early Christian around 1000 B.C. has a goddess and god's wife.

B.C. stands for "Before Christ". Some people want to change it to B.C.E. which means "Before the Christian Era". In any case, there were no Christians in any year ending in B.C.

If you just want to prove about the creator and not about what god's exact form is, I am on your side. It's just that deities being affected by worshipper in terms of power does not fit inside the creator category.

Be very careful taking things out of context. He worded his question that way because he's calling into question whether or not the man is "good". He's not implying that he himself isn't good.

Yahweh is the main god of that religion and he has a wife of equal power, who is of course a goddess. Christmas is also from that era.

Personally, I am Agnostic, so... sort of?

EDIT: Also, no, I do not believe in an afterlife.

 

[TheDarkGreninja]

Heres another thing I'd like to clear up, muslims shouldn't hate Jews or Christians, they should be respected as much as other muslims.

I believe the world is in its current form because of a higher conscious which lead it to this direction. But I disagree with this being having masculine trait since in its most primitive state there is no opposition. In other words, there is no 1 or -1.

You could call yourself a deist.

Ah, I see my only reason for him being masculine is its connotations.

I hate to step on toes, but it's actually "Before Common Era"

To which religion are you referring? It's certainly not Judaism or Christianity.

Christmas is also from that era.

Christmas was originally a pagan holiday, although it had a different name. I don't know when it's from, or what it was originally called, but it became Christmas in 2nd century A.D.

Also, about apostasy in the quran it talks of freedom of compulsion, the idea of execution was hadith which contradicts quran making itself false.

explain this (Why do you call Me good? Jesus replied,“No one is good except God alone.) dude stop running away from the main question. If jesus was god he should have never said that line.

(That's what I get for not looking it up recently.)

Regardless, my point still stands: Christianity wasn't a thing in any year ending in B.C. or B.C.E.
