Islam, Christianity and Morality ( 1 of 3 )

Islam and Christianity, do these religions, which are centuries old, address the problems of today's world?

Are believers in these religions really encouraged to live moral lives once they accept faith or can they "get by" with putting a lukewarm amount of effort to fight sin and still be guaranteed heaven? Could a religion like this really keep a society on the straight path in today's world?

This debate attempts to answer these questions.

The Christian representative was Matt Slick B.A., M. Div. webmaster of Christian Apologetic Research Ministry.

So what if ANY of you win any RELIGIOUS argument? Would your God be pleased if a PART of your "winning" INCLUDES throwing curses on one another? It would be better to LOOOSE a debate than loose a man's HEART. Remember that those who "fall in battle" aren't always the loosers. That would be all. And you can rant on if you like. Wish you both the BEST. PEACE to both of you brethren.

Arguing like little kids!!! tut-tut-tut.... Interestingly, Islam today is where Christianity was 600 years ago,

1. Christians too back then wanted to convert the whole world to Christianity, and would kill people to prove their point. (And also, interestingly said they were spreading the message of peace).

2. Had religious dogmas(still do ofcourse), that were unfounded in scientific nature.

Peace is only a few hundred years away, and then both of you can find new people to hate.

@tharip where is your proof that the disciples believed in the crucifiction,and dont even bother pointing to the anonymous gospels,also their is internal evidence in sauls letters and acts that the disciples were preaching another gospel,if u dont believe everything is gods will than your claiming that god is not in control of everything

@kafcin Islam isn't promoting violence in anyway.

@tharip I can see that you missed my point entirely.. Both the religions have something to offer in terms of morality, but both have thousands and thousands of fantasies that are nothing more than stories. One of them has had more time to evolve than the other. Period. Neither of them are REAL (In the terms of the fantastic and descriptive entities that they create!)....

[tharip]

@kafcin -According to Islam, If everything is "God's will", then didn't God create Christianity by his will(the biggest religion to this day), by allowing the disciples to be decieved about something so vital as Jesus' crucifixion, which happened hundreds of years before Muhammed lived/could have "revealed the truth" to them, why would God:

a)Allow the disciples to be decieved??

b)What happened to those who were decieived??

c)Why would God decieve anyone period??

answering-christianity speaks against Nadir Ahmed. This is because even Muslims can see that he is irrational and doesn't admit when he gets defreated that's why "he has never lost a debate"-Wow he needs to come back to earth
