That works.

I got another one. Something some people like to apply human characteristics to thereby exposing its man-made nature.

Yup. Many of the religious will be passing through that wide open big gate.

My favourite is Matthew 21:18-19

18 Early in the morning, as Jesus was on his way back to the city, he was hungry. 19 Seeing a fig tree by the road, he went up to it but found nothing on it except leaves. Then he said to it, “May you never bear fruit again!” Immediately the tree withered.

Take that fig!

I don't think he's in Iraq. Maybe Uranus but definitely not the middle east.

I've often thought God is more interested in general trends than individuals, on the other hand I've seen things that don't fit with that concept either. Maybe there is two Gods.

Won't happen...........you are getting greedy, better chance is just to wish for what you urgently need.

Christians associate Jesus with God: some say Jesus is God Himself, others say Jesus is the son of God, and others will say Jesus is part of Trinity: the three are one and the one is three..etc.

Jews deny Jesus and Mohammed; some say: God sent Moses and that's it.

Muslims also have their share in the enthusiasm about imams and sheikhs, and some of them deny the Mahdi and they say: God sent Mohammed and that's it, and there will be no Mahdi.

Therefore, my question is: In case you see a miracle by your own eyes, will you believe?

Some will say: no God, and so no miracles whatsoever; anyhow I say: if you see the miracle with your own eyes, will you believe? Say: yes, or no; and why do you say this in 2-3 lines.

The miracle will be an animal or beast speaking to you that people were used to deny God's revelations or were uncertain about the revelations.


All you need is some moderately good drugs to talk to animals. OK getting the quality drugs these days could be construed a miracle.

What if I urgently need a couple of million bucks to pay off my gambling issue? LOL

While we are on the whole god subject can someone tell me why he knocked up a married woman, can't he get his own chicks? And does this mean adultery is ok with god?

God is not frail; He is Almighty and Most Powerful; nothing may disable Him; and nothing may be difficult to Him.

Only God let them have the free choice: He made His apostles display the idea before people, and then He guides any who deserves the guidance: being good-hearted and kind to the poor, the needy and the weak; and He misguides those who wrong others and transgress on the rights of the weak.

(If God had willed, He would have made them as one nation [surrendering to God]; but [some of them are monotheists and merciful and some are associaters and wrong-doers; so] He admits [the merciful] whom He pleases into His mercy [: His Paradise], while the wrong-doers will have neither any friend nor any helper [to avert the doom from them.] )

The above between brackets is the explanation of the Quran 43: 8
وَلَوْ شَاء اللَّهُ لَجَعَلَهُمْ أُمَّةً وَاحِدَةً وَلَكِن يُدْخِلُ مَن يَشَاء فِي رَحْمَتِهِ وَالظَّالِمُونَ مَا لَهُم مِّن وَلِيٍّ وَلَا نَصِيرٍ

Gambling issue? He gave you the brain to know better than to get involved in it. (I was just in the casino for an hour but was smart enough to quit while I was behind!

Isn't religion a form of gambling on the after life? Heven or Hell - it's six/half dozen or the other? Very few can live up to the expectations imosed by the War God of the desert. 99% will burn baby burn.
