And since Muslims outnumber Christians, whose to say they aren't right? I think its much nicer knowing that everyone goes to the same place after death. Wrong. The majority of the world's religions population is Christian. See here: http://www.adherents.com/Religions_By_Adherents.html And, while we will ALL die, we will not all go to the same place. Not even close. Well that depends on what you see as Christianity. If cut into three slices- Catholic, Protestant and Orthodox, Islam becomes number 1. And its the fastest growing religion (while Christianity is on the decline). Yup, right back into the dirt. That big fat 0 I keep talking about. Is it not hypocritical that one minute we are being told that very few who claim to be Christian are really Christians but those "not real Christians" are reclaimed again if it somehow seems they might support some position? If you gave latitude to context, i believe youd see the institution is the largest in the world, while those who are true christian are comparitively small in number On the flip side of your quesiton i might also ask why youre willing to acknowledge the gross hypocracy and ridiculous false doctrines in the church only when its convenient for you? THIS faction is the one we tell you CHRIST is not associated with except by their claim to His name... they certainly dont cling to His doctrine I find the athesitic arguement very dishonest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take it from me - this question from this poster has been discussed to the point of exhaustion... Of course we consciously choose.... I wish you success in getting the point across, but I'm not going to hold my breath... I caught the tail end of one discussion in another thread, but I really want an explanation of how we come to believe something if we dont choose to, I really dont understand what the alternative is It is my view that unless you are unconscious and comatose - all of your decisions are conscious. I know of no other way to make a decision unless it is consciously made... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
