Might not be for you, if in "your" world, men, women, gods, all the same, no difference! But hey since the beginning of time, animals have not given birth to humans, or humans to animals, see nature likes to keep it within species, but hey that's where Faith comes in. To each, their own~

Faith is cool. Believe what you like. Just don't try to sell it as fact.

I think religious statements are factual to those who believe in them. I don't believe in selling beliefs/religion, or anything else for that matter ( I don't like salespeople). Not all facts are scientific facts, the claim that I am typing this now, unseen by anyone, will occur in no scientific paper, but it is a hard fact

That's why I think religious people are funny. They believe in faith and miracles when it fits their story. And when it doesn't, then come out, facts and science! That a woman could give birth immaculately - no problem, god can do anything. That a woman could give birth to son of god - ooh, no, don't you know nature keeps reproduction within species! Suddenly, it's hello logic!

Nah, you got it all wrong. Religion/Belief has nothing to do with logic or science, it is faith-based and it is a CHOICE, there is nothing logical about it. We all choose to believe in what we want and so you totally lost the point of what I meant in that first post. I added the statement "That's where Faith comes in" to show that regardless of how illogical something is to me, it is totally believable to someone else who has "faith" in it. Just like my beliefs can look totally illogical to someone else, but I have "Faith" and total confidence in them. The only person I need to convince is Me, Myself and I. What the rest believes doesn't keep me up ! night~

Why would a God need a human woman to create a son?

Well God has no needs, He just does whatever He wants, However He wants, Whenever He wants (yeh He told me )

I believe I look fabulous in blue. Beyond that, who the hell knows.

Hey, we all gotta believe in something and if looking great in blue works for you, wear blue

But you believe women can conceive without male contribution...hmm....all these girls in Nigeria should have just claimed immaculate conception instead of getting stoned for being pregnant and unwed.

How did you think Adam was "conceived"? Just fell off the sky

I don't believe that either. I think if you agree to believe the unbelievable, hell, god should have made a man give birth without a woman's help. The whole omnipotence thing, ya know.

Well, what you think is the world you created in your mind, it is not factual....But on another note, what do you believe? How did we come to be? I am curious.....

Like angels coming down to talk to people and virgins giving birth is factual?

You aren't curious what I believe. You are curious in an opportunity to prove me wrong.

Yea Monarchy's are violent towards their people, often twisting religions to gain power, as European history demonstrates. To bad the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is a US ally, why do we turn a blind eye to their human rights violations...

Angels delivering the word of God VS God impregnates a virgin to have a human child....the latter is harder to believe.

Muslims believe in immaculate conception too. No hall pass, sorry.

16. Relate in the Book (the story of) Mary, when she withdrew from her family to a place in the East.

17. She placed a screen (to screen herself) from them; then We sent her our angel, and he appeared before her as a man in all respects.

18. She said: "I seek refuge from thee to ((Allah)) Most Gracious: (come not near) if thou dost fear Allah."

19. He said: "Nay, I am only a messenger from thy Lord, (to announce) to thee the gift of a holy son.

20. She said: "How shall I have a son, seeing that no man has touched me, and I am not unchaste?"

21. He said: "So (it will be): Thy Lord saith, 'that is easy for Me: and (We wish) to appoint him as a Sign unto men and a Mercy from Us':It is a matter (so) decreed."

22. So she conceived him, and she retired with him to a remote place.

We don't believe a god or son of god was created, we believe a Human Being was created, Big Difference! just like Adam the first human being was created, it's not rocket science..... Off now ~~~

Just stopping by to give you a short Salam my dear,

The Prophet saw said that deeds of people would be presented to Allah every week on two days, Monday and Thursday, and every believing servant would be granted pardon except the one in whose (heart) there is rancour against his brother and it would be said: Leave them and put them off until they are turned to reconciliation ( Muslim)! Today is Thursday, may our good deeds be presented to the Most Merciful, ma salaama ~

ahhah . Hope you're staying safe, away from her/him or else you'd lose your mind quickly.

This goes back to the old question of "Why does God allow bad things to happen". I will preface this by saying that my response comes from an Islamic perspective, so my thought process will reflect that. As a Muslim, I believe that nothing happens in this world but it is willed by God. Atheists especially use this rhetoric ( why God allows evil) a lot to deny the existence of God. It is not a new question, in fact, we find the angels asking something similar even before man was created: “When your Lord told the angels, ‘I am putting a deputy on earth,’ they said, ‘How can you put someone there who will cause damage and bloodshed, when we celebrate Your praise and proclaim Your holiness?’ but He said, ‘I know what you know not.’” Qur’an 2:30 In other words, God was asked, “Why would you allow this human, who will do bad things, to exist? Why not create someone who won’t do anything bad, like us?” The answer was, “I understand the wisdom in what I am doing, and you don’t.” Now, outside of religion:

In their book, Philosophy of Religion, Murray make the following note: The Big Questions: “The logical problem of evil has been severely criticized in recent years and is regarded in the contemporary literature on the subject as largely discredited. In brief, the problem with this argument is that it assumes something false. Specifically, it assumes that a good being would prevent every evil it can under any circumstances…Thus, at best, the logical problem of evil shows us that if God exists, the only evil that exists is evil for which there is some good reason.”

The rhetorical questions now change to inquisitive questions. Rather than blurting out, “How could God do that?! What kind of God does these things?!” the question now is “Why is the world this way and what wisdom lies in that?” In Islam, we are told that this life is a test and true, perfect happiness is only possible in the hereafter, therefore, we will experience pain and suffering in this life. If God were to interfere and prevent every bad thing from happening to each individual, it would be like taking the test away from a student. Our entire purpose is to be closer to our Creator, so good is whatever brings you closer to Him and evil is whatever takes you further from Him. I think the popular notion of good and evil is as per the perception of our material body: Good = what causes us comfort and pleasure; Evil = what causes us pain and suffering but when you consider the soul, and a Creator beyond this material universe, you will get to understand that there is something bigger than just our material body.

"Not a single leaf falls without His Knowledge." (6:59) And "No calamity comes to the earth or in yourselves, except it is inscribed in the Book of Decrees (Al-Lauh Al-Mahfuz), before Allah brought it into existence. Certainly, that is easy for Allah." (57:22) So Yes, He certainly knows about Ebola, cancer, aids, you name it.There won’t be an end to diseases. This life is the stage for our test, almost every day a person gets ill, we will never fully understand the wisdom of it all, but i don't believe it is all random.....

This is absolutely heartbreaking, I am devastated for these kids who have lost the most important person anyone can have in their lives, so young. I especially feel so sad for the 15 year old who will probably have to play the role of a mother to these kids and become an instant adult and a mother figure to all of her siblings. I can't even imagine how stressful that is, I hope their communities/families will come together and help.

The guy keeps having what it seems are "flashbacks" but I guess they are really are not because the murder he is flashing back to hasn't happened yet to him??

Or was he involved in some other murder?

From what I understand, the murder has already happened and is the "current time". The flashbacks are flashbacks to what was happening prior to the murder!
