Correlation does not prove causation.

:/ you don't need two datasets to establish a trend; there needn't even be a correlation.

[QUOTE="Snipes_2"][QUOTE="ohdearohdear"][QUOTE="Snipes_2"] Nowhere does it say that. As far as I know, people of other religions and such have just as much chance to get to Heaven as Christians, God never Condemns non believers to Hell.

Jesus said 'I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the father but through me'. So yes, heaven is Christians only apparently.

It's not Christians only...You don't have to be a Christian to get to Heaven. As long as your religion has a custom that rids you of original sin, then you have as much chance as anyone.

You think that pasting together some incident proves your points.

If you want to prove a trend, use statistics.

I'm not going to take anything less than statistics seriously, especially not your garbage link.

Let's try to keep our standards high.

GreySeal9

How is he going to get statistics on people killing in the name of Allah?

That's his problem, not mine.

He made a point about a trend. Evidence of trends need to be statistical.

You don't need statistics to see a trend among people saying things. Statistics are provided for trends in murder etc...Not words.

You're not correct. Christiianity says that believing Jesus is God is the only way to heaven.

Well Every non believer has a chance to go to heaven, huh?

And to go to heaven. they must become a believer.

I don't feel like wading through spin so lets just be frank.

It goes a lot further to present actual statistics than to just make hand-wavy claims though... which is what was happening...

I realize that, but I'm just making the point that cherrypicking from Hopeless does not a point make.

I'm not saying that statistics alone can prove his point.

Where? Unless you have spoken to people of deceased members from another religion, how would you know they went to Hell?

See this is what gripes me with Christians, how loosely you follow the Bible.

Revelation 21:8 "But for the cowardly and UNBELIEVING and abominable and murderers and immoral persons and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death."

:lol:..so you just disregard all of the claims made and pretend that there are statistics for such a thing..and then attempt to call my link garbage..as if you can't look up thsoe quotes for yourself to prove they are in fact true quotes..

Simply pasting together some incidents does not prove your point. Why in the world do you think it would? You didn't even read the whole ****ing post apparently...how about you go back and read the quotes and statements i posted made by those who follow Islam in which they state that they kill in the name of Allah....

I'm not saying that there is statistics. What I am saying is that if you're going to make a claim like that, then you'd better have some. How about you just use your critical thinking skills, based on many of the claims..(of which you have apparently not read)..made by those who follow Islam and kill other human beings..supports the claim that it is indeed a trend..

But you don't.

But you don't.

I skimmed over the stuff you posted.

You seem to be mad that I'm not taking your post seriously, but you stated that there are trend, and then you supported it with a post that amounts to cheerypicking. Nobody is denying that some people kill in the name of Allah which is all you've proven.

If you want to establish a trend, you need to go beyond what you've laid out in your post.

I mean, if you're going to make a statement, it doesn't look very good to support it in the most lazy of ways.

If you can't adequately support your statement with substantial methods, then maybe you shouldn't make the statement.

This is ridiculous.

Just because Jesus comforted his disciples does not somehow cancel out the quote that ohdearohdear posted.

Your post is a non-sequitur.

I know you think that what you just typed is cute, but that doesn't change the fact that Snipes assertion that polls can't account for words is wrong, and it doesn't change that you said that there was a trend and now are getting frustrated that your means of proving it are woefully inadequate.

Um. Of course he wouldn't condemn his disciples to hell. They're his disciples. They'd be going to heaven. :/ The Bible makes it absolutely clear that only through faith can one be saved: Heb 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. And here, it is made clear that one cannot be saved by works: Titus 3:5 He saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit

You didn't refute it at all. You merely said that people of other religions don't go to hell without back it up with scripture.

[QUOTE="Snipes_2"]Christianity is not Hostile towards Non Believers though. foxhound_fox


"You will burn in Hell if you do not accept Christ as your Lord and Saviour."

Yes, not hostile at all. Not all Christians are hostile... but neither are all of them not hostile.

If a Christian tells you that, they're actually being LOVING towards you not hostile.

[QUOTE="Snipes_2"][QUOTE="ohdearohdear"]...it's from the Bible. It's John 14:6. It's one of the most iconic quotes in Christian theology. I thought you were a Christian :|ohdearohdear
I like to see where these quotes are copied and pasted from, I don't have the Bible memorized... "Jesus Comforts His Disciples" John 14:1 "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God[a]; trust also in me. John 14:2" In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you." Yeah...He's totally condemning people to Hell.

Um. Of course he wouldn't condemn his disciples to hell. They're his disciples. They'd be going to heaven. :/ The Bible makes it absolutely clear that only through faith can one be saved: Heb 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. And here, it is made clear that one cannot be saved by works: Titus 3:5 He saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit

Without Faith, I.e., without Religion or belief in God. That next quote is saying God saved us through his mercy, not because of what we did on Earth.

*Facepalm* This whole argument is about Unbeleivers, furthermore prove your statements rather than adding a wink to the end of it that way i could maybe take you abit more seriously.

You asserted that all Non Christians go to Hell, I refuted it. Nowhere does it say all Non Christians go to Hell. Unbelievers (Like I stated before) means people who denounce or don't believe in God.

Wait a minute STOP. Religion allows peace and faith to those that are not. We are debating if its Hostile or not? What does this prove? (In this case) Christians are nutheads because of what we believe? NO. The only way religion is hostile is when there are extremists who take it way out of context.

I don't need to back it up with quotes from the Bible because it never states such things.

The Christian is being loving, but the religious dogma remains hostile.

[QUOTE="chessmaster1989"]

Wait, what? You didn't even address 14.6...

Snipes_2

I put 14:6 into context. He's comforting his disciples, he notes there are many rooms in Heaven as well.

...Ok? What does that have to do with the treatment of other religions? He's saying there is room in heaven for his buddies. I think you're taking rooms as in places for other religions? I don't think heaven would be segregated but maybe I'm just a silly liberal. "I don't need to back it up with quotes from the Bible because it never states such things. " So what about that quote that said pretty much exactly "Believe in me or it's fire filled pits of doom for you". Also where are all those Christians telling me I'm going to burn in hellfire forever getting that from? Are they just jerks then?

If it never states such things, then on what authority are you stating that other religions don't go to hell.

Err...No I do believe I said "God" not "The Christian God". Can you tell me how you know for a fact that everyone goes to Hell who is not Christian?

No; that fails to explain why Jesus states that only through him can one reach the Father. lrn2theology
