Look at #26 and let me know what you disagree with.

I don't disagree with anything. There's nothing there to disagree with the fact that it's all the same God. Even Christians look at God differently. Catholics look at him through their saint's and Mary. Baptists try to ignore the fire and brimstone. Mormans add a native American flavor. Jews worship the same god without the assurity of forgiveness that Christ offered. Muslims see the crueler side of God from the old testement sharpened by Mohamed.

We all worship the same god, we just fight over His messagers (real or false).

You would think a real, all-powerful, all-knowing God would have enough of this foolishness to take five minutes out of His busy schedule and pop onto some mountain and speak for himself instead of going through unreliable middlemen with their own flaws and agendas.

We all worship the same god, we just fight over His messagers (real or false).

There is ONE true G-d, but there are false gods out there as well and we were instructed not to go after false gods.

Do you know how to tell if a messenger is a false prophet?

We all worship the same god, we just fight over His messagers (real or false).

And, thus, fight over His message (real or false).

It's that "real or false" that makes all the difference in the world.

I have no desire to see G-d falsely. I wish to see Him in truth. It is important to me to be proven wrong where I am wrong, and to be reaffirmed where I am right.

For most, as you say, it's just theological mumbo-jumbo, but I would be no more happy believing the wrong message than I would be believing a lie about my wife.

Love seeks truth.

Shalom.

""Your god advocated the sacrifice of a man's son upon an alter, allowed the death of Able, committed genocide to clense the world, advocated slavery, domination of women, and a host of politically incorrect attrocities in the old testiment which were subsequently mollified in the new""

No, I do not think that God has to speak for Himself, After you read the Bible with the desire to know the true Living God, What more can God say that he has'nt already said??
YOU want more words when you have not even given heed to the ones he already wrote??????????????????????????

"Baptists try to ignore the fire and brimstone."

HUH? As a Baptist P.K., I cut my teeth on Dad's hellfire and brimstone sermons. You couldn't be more wrong.
