ALTHOUGH I'M A CONSERVATIVE CHRISTIAN (Baptist), I no longer believe that the Bible teaches eternal torment or suffering. The Bible teaches eternal punishment, but it's not eternal torment. In my popular Internet article, TRADITIONAL DOCTRINE OF HELL EVOLVED FROM GREEK ROOTS, I explain how and why teaching of eternal torment entered early into Christianity and how Scriptures have been misinterpreted and taken out of context to support that teaching. ~Babu G. Ranganathan (B.A. theology/biology)
SCIENCE SHOWS THAT THE UNIVERSE could not have sustained itself eternally because of entropy (even in an open system). Einstein confirmed that space, matter, and time had a beginning! That beginning had to be supernatural because natural laws have no ability to bring the universe into existence from nothing. The supernatural cannot be proved by science but science points to a supernatural intelligence for the origin and order of the universe ~ HOW FORENSIC SCIENCE REFUTES ATHEISM (Article)
EINSTEIN CONFIRMED that space and time are just as physical as matter. That's why space and time can be altered by gravity, and space produces particles. Einstein's equations show that the universe couldn’t be eternal. It had a beginning. Einstein believed, because of science, in the existence of God behind the origin and order of the universe. He didn't believe in a personal God like Christians do, but he did believe science pointed to the existence of an all powerful and intelligent Creator
THE SCIENTIFIC CASE AGAINST ATHEISM: Please read this Internet article of mine published in Russia's English Pravda. It will be a real eye-opener for all who think belief in a Creator is merely subjective blind faith. Also read my article, LIFE ON MARS NO SURPRISE (In the Earth's past there was powerful volcanic activity which spewed life-containing dirt and rocks (meteors) into outer space. Mars may literally have millions tons of Earth soil)
NATURAL LIMITS TO EVOLUTION: Only evolution within "kinds" is genetically possible (i.e. varieties of dogs, cats, etc.), but not evolution across "kinds" (i.e. from worm to human). How were species living and reproducing if their vital structures, organs, reproductive systems hadn't evolved yet? Read my Pravda Internet article: WAR AMONG EVOLUTIONISTS! I discuss: Punctuated Equilibrium, "Junk DNA," genetics, mutations, natural selection, fossils, genetic/biological similarities between species
DAWKINS, HITCHENS, AND HAWKING REFUSE TO DEBATE with creationists who are SCIENTISTS, such as the scientists at The Institute for Creation Research. Dawkins and his friends only debate non-scientist creationists. Read articles by scientists supporting creation at The Institute for Creation Research site. Read analysis from creation scientists about the latest news concerning fossils, astronomy, etc. that you won't read in the main stream media. Visit the Institute for Creation Research site.
WHAT IS SCIENCE? Science simply is knowledge based on observation. No one observed the universe coming by chance or by design, by creation or by macro-evolution. These are positions of faith. The issue is which faith the scientific evidence best supports. Natural laws can explain how an airplane or living cell works, but it's irrational to believe that undirected natural laws can bring about an airplane or a living cell. Read my Internet article: HOW FORENSIC SCIENCE REFUTES ATHEISM
NATURAL SELECTION DOESN'T PRODUCE ANYTHING. It can only "select" from what is produced that has survival value. If a variation occurs that helps a species survive, that survival is called being "selected." That's all its is. There's no conscious selection by nature. It's a passive process. Natural selection is a figure of speech. The term itself is a tautology. Natural selection only operates once there is life and reproduction, not before. Read my article: HOW FORENSIC SCIENCE REFUTES ATHEISM.
NATURAL SELECTION IS NO BLIND WATCHMAKER because it can only "select," not produce or arrange. If a variation survives, that's called being "selected." Natural selection operates only once there is life and reproduction, not before, so it couldn't have been involved in life's origins. A partially-evolved cell (an oxymoron) would quickly disintegrate. It couldn't wait ("survive") millions of years for chance to complete it and then make it alive! Read: HOW FORENSIC SCIENCE REFUTES ATHEISM
IMAGINE A FISH WITH PART FINS, part feet with the fins evolving (transitioning) into feet. What survival benefit would there be? The fish couldn't use its fins or its feet, and there are no fossils showing such a creature ever existed. They only exist on automobile bumper stickers! There are no true transitional forms, either living or fossilized. Evolutionists realize this fact! Read my Internet article: WAR AMONG EVOLUTIONISTS!
APES ARE QUITE COMFORTABLE IN HOW THEY WALK, just as humans are quite comfortable in how they walk. Even a slight change in the position of a muscle or bone, for either, would be excruciatingly painful and would not be an advantage for survival. There's no hard evidence that humans evolved from ape-like creatures anymore than there's hard evidence that apes evolved from four-legged-pawed dog-like creatures. Read Internet article: MISSING LINKS THAT NEVER WERE.
GENETIC INFORMATION CANNOT HAPPEN BY CHANCE, so it's more logical to believe that genetic similarities between all forms of life are due to a common Designer who designed similar functions for similar purposes. It doesn't mean all forms of life are biologically related! Also, "Junk DNA" isn't junk. These non-coding segments of DNA have recently been found to be vital in regulating gene expression. Read my popular Internet article: HOW FORENSIC SCIENCE REFUTES ATHEISM
ALL REAL EVOLUTION ( i.e. varieties of dogs, cats, etc.) in nature is the expression, over time, of already existing genes. Evolution is possible only if there’s information (genes) directing it. Only variations of already existing genes are possible, which means only limited evolution and adaptations are possible. Nature has no ability to invent new genes via random mutations caused by random environmental forces. That’s evolutionary faith, not science. Read my article, WAR AMONG EVOLUTIONISTS!
DO EYES CARRY SCARS OF EVOLUTION? Read this fantastic Internet article by biologist and creationist Brian Thomas. Thomas refutes every argument of a "flawed" design for the eye, and explains how and why the so-called flaw is actually the best thing for the eye. Read the article! It's amazing what facts evolutionists will ignore. Numerous times evolutionists have been proven wrong about their interpretation of a structure as being flawed or useless
yeah right!britsh goverment is against islam politics in brittian.Pfff koran talks about killing infidels and the followers threat infidels lives and for islam everybody thats is not islam is a infidels.Mohammad is nothing but a man that couldnt prove to the jewish community that he is a profit he wasnt born under a shekinah and he doesnt understand much.So he got angry and started 2 kill jews and needed back up and lied to a bunch of them men to follow him.....PLS what rubbish!

The problem with infidel is that they like to mock Islam.but they don't know that Islam is the truth and Thousands of infidels are converting to Islam day by day!Last year alone there are 10o thousands British public converted to Islam!`British government is a strong supporter of Islam now!Allah hu akhbar!
@MsAllahhuakhbar No, we recognize Islam as a myth and we recognize that it is the False. We recognize that it comes from desert barbarians. We recognize that it allows minds to be so warped that they would fly airplanes into buildings killing thousands and starting wars that have killed hundreds of thousands. WE recognize that you are deluded and have not thought through the garbage you spew from your fingers.
@MsAllahhuakhbar "The problem with infidel is that they like to mock Islam"
Since when was mocking an unpardonable sin? Allah may not be but Islam is worthy of mockery. Islam's popularity is not a indication of either its truth or the benefits of believing it is true. It was not the community of Islam that made computers a reality, nor your right to speak your mind on the internet, nor does Islam promote the dignity of mankind, logic, reason, or even decency.
Allah is the name of the Muslim god and according to Islam, the same god of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Many comparative religious scholars have assumed that because Islam claimed that he is the same god as the Biblical god, that there is no reason to investigate the origin of him. There has been much archeological study and religious investigation upon the claim of whether Allah is the same god of the Bible.They all found him to be true. Islam is the fastest growing religion In US.Wa salam!
@MsAllahhuakhbar Watch the video again, it's clear that you didn't watch and understand it. "These cookbooks do not make a better world' Let me quote him again: THESE COOKBOOKS DO NOT MAKE A BETTER WORLD. You are using a cookbook rather than thinking. THINK!
But unfortunately, it's preaching to the choir so to speak. I don't think any x-tians will get to that part, and if they do, they'll find some kind of rationalization for genocides and so on. After all, it is THE book and it can't be wrong, so there might be something wrong with our current moral values.
@zee24 We believe that only Muslims are true believers and others (Jews, polytheists ,...) are only infidels. For them, their lives are worth nothing. Muslims are not consider themselves as killers but as soldiers of God.
Love it!

You really need to change the prerequisites to be a muslim.
Some people say you can't know the qu'ran if you don't read it in arabic. Arabic is a pretty rare language, as less than 10% of the planet speaks it.
There are many errors in the qu'ran, but many muslims said I couldn't criticize it because I speak very little arabic.
I say the same of other muslims, and this eliminates 90% of them, if not more.
