I'm not trying to limit anything. What I am asking is if a remedy is proposed but never demonstrates any effect, why can't we question the remedy?

But that doesn't work when the matter of faith is about God. You can't use God as justification when what you are having trouble believing is that there is a God. Would you tell the diabetic to continue using lemon juice if his source was adherents of Hinduism and its religious texts...

Are the red and green names part of the original chart?

You want him to get tougher with his girlfriend over a disputable fact like the peace symbol is a representation of satan?

I have found missing hyperlinks. Does that help?

You want a new direction from the subject of the thread? I don't understand your request. I clarified what I meant when I said I would bring it up no more in my previous post here: http://www.christianforums.net/showthread.php?t=46078&p=717656&viewfull=1#post717656

I hope the issues that separate you from you loved ones is soon resolved.

Re: Many opinions, few facts Muslim means "one who submits to God". They are servants to his will and worshipers of his person.

I didn't say Christians couldn't talk about it. I just said it was controversial and that it would probably be best for me to leave off commenting on that subject since I am not a Christian. I believe I understood what you meant by this. My perspective is that this is more of an individual...

I would say that atheism is not a religion. The reason I state this is that while atheism can be a set of beliefs about God, it can also be the rejection of beliefs about God. In other words, to say "I believe there is no God" is not the same as saying "I do not believe there is a God". The...

Well, if you are seeking the simplest terms, Allah is Allah.

Re: You assume so much, and so much of it is in error No, I answered it. I don't know how my answer can be construed as "ignored", but I did not ignore it. Perhaps I did not answer it the way you wished, but that is not the same as ignoring it. You want me to present my views on atheism...

Those two are not the same thing.
