    Proving that God exists is fairly easy. Everything in our universe follows a cause and effect relationship...follow this all the way to the beginning ...to the Big Bang (The big bang must have therefore been an effect of yet another cause--step in God).

    Proving that Christianity is the right faith is tough. First with respect to Islam, the newer of the three major religions, Mohammed wasn't a true prophet. You see Christ knew he himself was God, right from the very beginning. If you are a prophet...trust me you know. Mohammed on the other hand at first thought the devil was messing with his head--clearly not a sign of a true prophet.
    Judaism and Christianity are basically the same thing. They believe in the same God (as opposed to Allah, who is contemplated by some scholars to be a different God than that which Christianity and Judaism refer to). Judaism is based off of the old testament, which we Christians abid to as well. For them however, their Messiah hasn't come, for us, we are basically xxxs with a Messiah. But Christ changed a lot of things in the old testament...made them more appropriate so to speek. For instance, in the old testament, it says that "an eye for an eye"...if someone does something bad to you, you do it back to them...in the new testament, you turn the other cheek. If human nature at all tells us something, if our hearts tell us something, clearly changing the other cheek shows more superior control of yourself...is much more human...there are a lot of subtle things that Christ changed. Above all, he said that love surpasses any law....
    I love Christ....from my perspective, faith in him has done me great things....not physical things....but just great things
    Hold on their cowboy. Lol, kidding. That was part brilliant.

    But I dont like bring up the idea of intelligent design (which is what u described) because it is still a theory (just like evolution). But it does make perfect scense.

    Lamb boy, start a thread about this and will tell u what the bible says about incest.

      Well first welcome to the forums that aren't afraid to wander within a given topic. I'm sure we can all handle that fact although I feel Siggie likes this fact not.

      Next all I have to say is the question could not be more simple yet ALWAYS and not just from ppl here seems to involve a lengthy discussion on the origins of this religion, and for an even less noticeable reason goes into the validity of a God. It's really easy question I don't see why the answers have to be so complicated ... lol
