no answer the easter question!
there being no matter its scientifically impossible, i realize a religious man would argue god made science so i dont see this argument going anywhere, next point
god had to be made, he cant be the first thing. because the first has to be made. chicken or the egg argument. obviously evolution produced a chicken who layed eggs. god had to be made if he is real
i get the concept of freewill and karma but i refer you to Vipers post.
this point is a must talk on sex was made obviously... sense the beginning of man, marriage has not, marriage yes is made by the church but "adam and eve" werent married. marriage was invented by churches later because they wanted people to be monogamous, god did not specify this.
Dude, thats a LOT of work!! lol ok, let me try but eish... gonna need a book for this.
to be honest, i really dont understand the Easter question but its more like- Good Friday is celebratin Jesus' death, Sat for when he was dead and Sunday for when he rose again. The Monday is just for people to relax. If u asking why it happens every year- its like a birthday or something That helped
Scientifically, there IS before matter and before time. Please refer to the Big Bang theory being explored at the LHC in Switzerland. Hint, google spacetime.
Viper writes alot of stuff, being specific would help.
Sex has always been there and yes, there was no marriage. Over the years, religions have created "rules" based on what they believe. African traditional advocating for paying of lobola, Islam going for arranged marriage, catholics Marriage and so on. So, if you were specific on which particular Christian denomination in question we could discuss further.
If there is only one god, why so many religions? why must god say do not believe in anyone other higher power than me? how did we get variations of religion with such different beliefs. such as you stated being "catholic" i believe you go to hell only for bad things. yet christians believe you go if you dont believe. yet they almost think its ridiculous that people have different views.
if adam and eve we white howd we get black people?
if Jesus was jewish... isnt that the religion to follow?
Because man is impure and ideally, different religions would not be the case. Case study, the formation of "The Church in England under King Henry VIII"
God says do not believe in higher powers because, like "satanic influences" Viper, that will probably contradict his teaching. If one is sent by God, however, (like the prophets) its merely an interpretation of his axioms.
White and black is there because of evolution. People moved to colder areas and became white! But, by agreeing that evolution and Christianity are NOT mutually exclusive but rather complimentary, we rarely touch on scientific debates. Any christian who argues otherwise is DUMB.
This is just a personal interpretation. Judaism was meant to prepare the Jewish people for Jesus Christ. It was one he HAD to join to discover his sprirituality. It would be the one to follow if they actually believed Christ is the Messiah which they dont.
