6 pages are a little time consuming so lets continue here. Quran 4:82 “Do they not consider the Qur'an (with care)? Had it been from other than Allah, they would surely have found therein much discrepancy.” I love this one because Muslims use it all the time to prove the truth of the Quran. They literally use an error to prove Islam's validity. Or as it seems the Bible….

Anyone else a Unitarian Universalist?!

If you don't know what a UU were a liberal religion that accepts many faith traditions. Unitarian Universalists include people who identify as Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus, Pagans, Atheists, Agnostics, Humanists, and others. As there is no official Unitarian Universalist creed, Unitarian Universalists are free to search for truth on many paths. We don't argue about who's right, we don't fight about each other beliefs. We accept everyone and come togehter as one.

Just wondering how many of you out there are also a proud UU!! =D

The Bible

Maybe asking for agreement is a rather simplistic if not impossible thing for me to ask, but would it be helpful if we agreed one source for Bible quotations such as the KJV?

Elohim - acknowledging the existence of more deities?

How......

How can it be that Jesus contradicts the Old Testament (1 Samuel 21-22), saying that Abiathar gave David the showbread instead of Ahimelech, and saying that David had men with him, when he was actually alone (Mark 2:25-26)?

Do the Christian churches really expect me to rely upon the teachings of a “one of the sons of the Sky-God” who is demonstrably mistaken about what Sky-God’s word says.

Such a bad boy?

Why did Jesus, by his own admission, break the Sabbath law (John 5:16-18)? Jesus plainly said that he was working, in violation of the Sabbath law. If he was not really working, then he lied. This refutes the belief that the perfect Jesus fulfilled the whole Law, and therefore was a suitable unblemished sacrifice for our sins.
