That's very negative nm. Symptomatic of/consistent with your beliefs of course.

I wonder how many Christians would remain faithful and dedicated if God decided that there was no salvation for the sins of man and even the most devout and righteous in his eyes deserved, and would receive, an eternity in hell in spite of all their prayers and supplications.

There is no promise that you yourself has to benefit Ryan. You can be just as much a rebel as your nature dictates. Justice is served upon you in exactly the same way as it is on everyone. Also, it rains upon the righteous and the unrighteous equally. Your understanding of why is what matters.

Yes Ray. We've done the discussion before so I wonder why you have to start on it again. Funny that you try and say it's me that wants to drag this up.

Yes, Christianity and Judaism disagree fundamentally with Islam on the interpretation of the bible. I doubt very much ether you and I would stand a rats chance in hell of resolving that one.

Me, I'm happy to maintain the status quo. Viva La difference. See my first post in this thread... I didn't denounce other faiths at all, I just said that there was a difference.

Let me get this straight... are you saying that the Christian God and Allah are the same god or not?

if not, please stop being a dick.

Then let's see how many similarities you can point to between the attributes of the Judaic god and the attributes of the Christian god (which you mentioned earlier).

No pressure, though.
I'm wating (somewhat impatiently) for your response.
