Why do we fight about religion in this section?
arguing about religion and beliefs only makes a person depressed
personally , I'm a Christian , and all I found is that there is no point in arguing over what people believe in , or making a statement (mostly insults) pushing your own believes on someone
when you start going into these deep detailed arguments about life , evolution , destiny , faith , hope it only causes confusion and my causes depression
mostly atheist think they run this section , giving insults to anyone mentioning the word "God" or "religion" in a question , or sometimes they get bored , and ask a sarcastic questions about God hoping to spite Christians , or any other belief , basically trolling around
And Christians should stop , pushing our beliefs on other people , like mentioning hell , or moral values some people like atheists don't have , when you give an answer you should give your source of information , and also the providing evidence of your statement
so basically what I'm trying to say is , what is the point in fighting over what people believe in?
if someone have a question about God or the Bible , let only Christians answer it
if someone have a question about evolution , and the negative impact religion have on society
let only atheist answer it
if people have a question about the Quran or Allah let only Islamist answer it
why do you need to insult people for what the CHOOSE to believe in?
why can't we just respect each others beliefs?

"mostly atheist think they run this section"
Naahhh... that's your paranoia talking.
I'd get that looked at.
"why do you need to insult people for what the CHOOSE to believe in?"
1. No one chooses what to believe - I couldn't choose to believe in gods anymore than I could choose to believe in Pixie and Elf.
2. “Religion deserves no more respect than a sports team or a favourite food.”

Respecting someone's beliefs and allowing them to impose those beliefs on others is quite a different thing.
Since man first thought and tried to explain the natural world with available investigative tools at the time, people have been guessing what makes the world works. Only science has developed theories from known facts and openly allows those theories to be questioned and overturned. Most, if not all religions have, when they have been in control of society, disallowed questioning, whether by physical force, such as the stoning of blasphemers or banishment from society.
If you choose to believe in the Abrahmic god, or Zarathustra, or Odin is completely up to you. If you start to impose those beliefs in the classroom, or imagining that you have any position to use those beliefs as arguments in a rational debate on the existence of man and the universe you are overstepping the mark.
Some would even have us put Abrahamic creationism on the science syllabus on an equal footing with evolution.
I respect your right to believe what you will, but when you express those beliefs, I and others have a right to oppose them...point out their incompatinbility with reality, and even ridicule them.

Christian's are at war with Anti-Christ. We worship, God who is Right! We defend Our God, or otherwise we wouldn't have anything! This started along time ago, it has to come to maturity & be resolved, so we can get to the next level. This part of history we are in, The Bible says, it's not even our fight. It's God's fight, The Victory is already won & determined by The Cross of Calvary. We hold firm our ground for God.

you comprehend, in those ol' western shows on television, a stranger ought to holiday into city and discover the human beings in hardship. Then in only 0.5-hour (minus commercials) he ought to magically sparkling up truly everyone's issues via by some means having extra perception and understanding about city than any of the electorate who've lived there for generations. properly, it really is why they call it fiction. the reality is that it truly is a marginally-moderated, free, open communicate board on a smooth problem (faith). So at the same time as attempting to quit arguments may look like a heroic reason, that is truly fairly naive and doomed to fail.

I don't believe you are sincere, Book of Enoch, since you just wrote this on my question:
"go **** yourself
God tested Job , so that he would proof to Satan , that no mater what , he will still love God , and be rewarded in heaven
it was a test of faith , you clearly don't have it
I wonder what you will do when the doctor says you only got 6 months to live?"

There is no good reason to argue with others or to make them feel bad for who they are or what they believe. I don't think it helps in bridging the gap between mankind, but only draws us apart when we choose to disregard others feelings. I think its because misery loves company personally.

5 Therefore they did cry unto the people, saying: Why do you suffer this man to revile against us? For behold he doth condemn all this people, even unto destruction; yea, and also that these our great cities shall be taken from us, that we shall have no place in them.
6 And now we know that this is impossible, for behold, we are powerful, and our cities great, therefore our enemies can have no power over us.
