But do you believe that that creator went as far as to actaully CREATING the differant "versions" of him? The differant religions, creeds and non-religions and creeds.

only if you dont want cancer!

Is it possible that all of us who believe there is a God are correct regardless of the title or doctrines WE as humans choose to apply to him are correct?

The following assumes that we can agree that there is a God and that God created the universe. I recognize everyone has a different view point on the gender, if any, of the creator. I will use the male gender only to simplify things.

If God created all of us and the entire universe, He is a very creative fellow. Far more creative than any of us can possibly imagine. Science is discovering new things about this universe we live in everyday. I would imagine that the creator would be pretty dog gone smart too. He has shown demonstrated that by what he has created. I would further suppose that he knows that this universe would be a pretty boring place if he colored the palette with only one color, personality, language, view point and creed. He created us all differently. He knows what we would need to lead a happy fulfilling life. He knows that some of us will need to cling to a “savior” and others will not. He knows that some will marvel at the power of the “Sun God” while others will just marvel at the sun.

Is it POSSIBLE that as he was and is creating the universe that he as also created and continues to plant the seeds of the creeds we as humans cling to in order to make sense of this world and life we live? And that it doesn’t matter to which creed you cling to because they are ALL him?

Is it POSSIBLE that HE created these different religion and creeds intentionally to add diversity and make life more interesting?

Is it POSSIBLE that we as humans underestimate the power of our creator and want to put Him in a box so that WE can be right and others can be wrong?

"Have the slaves gone completely insane?"

Apparently so.

why i'd show them a genuine receipt from the bibles are us store that states it is the real thing not an imitation, i would point out to the person the well bound corithian leather binding and open it to show it's the real thing not just an outward look but throughout the entire thing, - if that still did not convince them then i would call the booble store and have them talk directly with the person in charge - then they would be cinvinced - and reply - tell me verses - tell me verses!!!!

Corinthian leather was a phrase invented for marketing use to describe the leather used in certain Chrysler luxury cars in the 1970s. The first use of this term was to describe the leather in the 1974 Chrysler Imperial, but the best known use of this term is from the advertising campaign for the 1976 Chrysler Cordoba, featuring celebrity spokesman Ricardo Montalbán.[1]

Although many misquote Montalbán as saying "rich Corinthian leather" or "fine Corinthian leather" in the commercial, he actually says that "soft Corinthian leather" is an available upholstery option for the car.[2]

Corinthian Leather is a marketing term that does not actually indicate any particular type of leather. Furthermore, Montalbán confirmed this during an interview with David Letterman, admitting that Corinthian leather means "nothing."[3] According to one reference, Chrysler's "Corinthian" leather was mass produced in a plant in Newark, New Jersey (not Corinth).

According to one source, the term was created by employees of the Young & Rubicam advertising agency.[4]

ok the question is intended to make the reader consider (regardless of whether they answer) if they have enough knowledge of what they believe is "God" to convey this belief withought being able to repeat words from a book like a parrot, cut and paste from a scripture debate site meant to help those without any understanding propogate and defend the bible or christian faith, or simply ignore everything said and insert scripture that may or may not have anything to do with the sitiuation or their belief.

The Goal per my personal comprehension of the question is to see if proffessed Christians engaging in these discussions have any thoughts of their own whatsoever, and whether they are capable of sharing those thoughts.

Presuming they do have their own minds and are able to do so, it gives insight on their PERSONAL belief once they stop pasting, playing, and repeating scripture that they may or may not understand.

To convince someone that the religion is true you must convince them that the book is indeed the word of God and is therefore godly.

Is it tacit that they WISH to be converted, or are they just open to listening to me?

The best way to convert or open someone's mind to something new is to live and behave and speak what the scriptures communicate. In my opinion, one doesn't have to quote scriptures to show one is a Christian.

NOT !!!!! -

It was'nt meant to be about a specific religion . It's about people believing in something unexplainable that makes them strive to be their best !And I'm not judgeing you either . That shall be left till the end of time .I would rather believe in something that makes me live a good life and then be proven wrong in the end than to live a rotten selfish life and find that there really is a creator in the end !

Debbie's Says: Do you think it's possible to know oneself so well that you let God in as a guide not because you can't do it yourself, but because that is why he died to take our sin and burden. Of course I make decisions every day.....but I ask pray for God to guide me because I can.

Debbie Says: And this again all well and good for you....But I can't imagine for me a God who would give His only Son and turned away when the sin was leashed on Christ and not feel emotion with that was coming down. If God makes me weep for no apparent reason other then when I am asking him something or praying....How could he not have emotion if he is putting that emotion through me.

Debbie Says: And I can ask.....because when I do the prayers are answered...not all the time because it is on God's time not mine. If the creator as I see it made all that is.....why would I do anything other then use a tree, for product for air etc. I would not pray to a tree.

Now I agree that with anything just as believing in God it's a choice. If I choose to have God tied to every aspect of my life....Is that a bad thing...heck no that what God wants. You don't get to heaven by works but through faith.

And because of my faith in God all things are possible. How could I not think this with all that God is doing right here on JSH....Miracles are happening and it's not through our will but His.

God = Creator
Jesus = His Son who will come back and this world will belong to him again. He will be the All Mighty the voice.
satan = Will be banned by Jesus for all eternity never to darken our doorsteps again.

And understand one last thing. You are so very very entitled to believe as you wish....as I am.....and can we have our differences and still love each other as human beings....yeppers.
