In terms of the Club of Rome interpretation, a Little Horn uproots the first 3.

Bio-regions #1,2, & 3, are North America, the West EU, and Island of Japan.

There is a Mediterranean Neighborhood Policy, which just so happens to be numbered EU Rec 666.

If reaffirmed, amongst the many, oblations (sacrifices) would be caused to cease, within 3 1/2 yrs, in fulfillment of Bible prophecy, on account of animal rights, in one possible scenario.

I'm not a practicing Christian, but since your thread is under siege I'll come to your aid.

In the Bible it says you shouldn't have any other gods besides Jesus (God).

I have a lot of questions myself and lack faith at times. The apostles had it somewhat easy in that they saw Jesus do miracles. We have to have blind faith.


But the Qaran says to only worship Mohammed. Why are you listening specifically to the Bible? What evidence is there that says THAT is the correct religious text?


Didn't you know that we must believe in the same God because the new pope is trying to merge the two religions together under a one world religion called "Chrislam".

They are nihilistic, and everyone needs to know why. :ninja:

The World Council on Churches reportedly welcomed all faiths, and there was recently a version of the Tomorrowland Festival, in Israel.

Just in the interest of clarification.

Is there a "down pushing" christian thread that you felt you had to identify yourselves as different from?

Christians are being persecuted and put to death world-wide.

From a source that everyone here seems to think is so reliable:

http://www.cnn.com/2016/01/17/world/chr ... tion-2015/


Christians need to come together before it is too late!

The Muslims would certainly disagree that you worship the same god. All I am asking for is guidance to see truth :(. I'm not trying to bombard the thread, I'm trying to get aid so I can be happy. But in order to do that, I need some sort of concrete support so that my lack of faith can vanish.

It's too bad that a person has to get this angry because people can't have a little respect for people around here. Your post didn't help the matter.

Pretty soon I'm going to have to move this thread to The Haven just to get people to stop posting unnecessary negative posts.

^ I'm sorry, but that ^^ post doesn't exactly sound respectful either.
Why must you specify Christian?
I don't really understand the mindset behind that.
If you're going to uplift people, why can't you uplift everyone?
Why does it have to be exclusive?

Excluding people makes it negative to begin with.

Yeah...

Good luck with that, religion is frowned upon in The Haven it seems.

Also Raleigh is right about excluding people, that is why I am not at church and that is why religion is a failure.
