Religion / Re: Top 5 Richest Pastors In Africa Are From Nigeria by rinrin23(f): 1:51pm On Sep 19, 2014 |
Ukutsgp: but they did nt steal from u na? did they come to your house to steal ur money? Don't get me wrong, I have nothing but respect for these men. To be able to do what they do on such a large scale and remain unquestioned, and their follower base keeps increasing; its incredible really. I admire their work, -from the pastors hustling on buses to the ones flying multimillion dollar jets. 1 Like |

Nigeria has bigger issues, we do not need a secessionist movement. History has shown that spilts are messy, violent and lead to unnecessary loss of life. I understand dying for a cause, but there are more reasonable causes to die/live for. |

I do not understand the reasoning behind this question. Do women have special genes that makes them predisposed to being Theists? There are men and women in religious settings, so why do you think this wouldn't apply to Atheism? |

kmcutez: And the Christians say the same about Islam and Allah. When are we all going to open our eyes and get past all of this religious bigotry. There's no correct answer. There is no "only way". There is no "hell". Define fictitious and enlighten us on how Islam is not. No one has the "truth", if anyone does it most certainly isnt any of the Abrahamic religions. 1 Like |

Poems For Review / Re: Are You A Poet? Why Do You Write? by rinrin23(f): 9:08pm On Sep 09, 2014 |
Many reasons: - to quiet my mind - to gain clarity on my emotions. Sometimes I don't completely understand how I feel until I've poured it out on paper - because the voices tell me to . The don't let me rest/think/sleep until all the words floating in my head form phrases and those phrases form rhymes - so that I don't have to talk. My mind has a closer relationship with hands than my mouth, therefore I tend to favor writing to talking. |

PastorKun: Understood. So if the NT says to do away with the OT why is it still there. And why do preachers use it selectively. Why isnt christianity based on the whole bible?. Why did God change his mind from the OT to the NT. Why did he go from violent to loving. Why not start off with just the New laws? 2 Likes |
Religion / Re: Why I'm Glad I Am No Longer A Muslim by rinrin23(f): 1:34pm On Sep 09, 2014 |
PastorKun: I understand your line of thought. However if we choose to say Jesus is the founder of Christianity and there is no violence in his teachings, does this mean Christianity is/should be based solely on the new testament and Jesus's life. Thereby doing away with ALL old laws including the 10commandments in the old testament. As the founder of the faith as a whole, Christians can choose to follow the example of Abraham and kill in the name of God. And they have. In fact all christians need to do is follow the ways of God described in the OT and they would be violent and justified in it. So why copy a prophet of God and not God himself. The only reason its not as widespread as Islam's extremities is because the recent trend of Christianity is to pick and choose which parts of the bible they choose to follow. 8 Likes |

Very interesting and informative write-up. I too share your disapproval of Islamic radicals, and all religious extremists. However I don't see why you should stop being sympathetic for the loss of innocent lives simply because they happen to be of the same religious affiliation of the extremists on another side of the world. You forget that Christianity wasn't always a religion of peace, and if christians weren't always choosing parts of the bible they want to follow, it would still be a violent religion. I see no difference between the god of Islam and the god of the Torah/Old testament. Abraham was willingly going to kill his son simply because his god told him to. So hows that any different from what BH and ISIS are doing. So if you can say Christianity is a religion of peace, then so can moslems. So many atrocities have been committed in the name of religion, not just Islam and Christianity but others too. The common denominator here is religion. IF we solve that problem, everything else will fall into place. 11 Likes 2 Shares |
