    Today, in the Oval Office, in front of the entire world....

    If western Canada breaks off and forms a new country, I wonder if they are looking for Commercial Architects/Land Planners to immigrate? My country seems determined to “jump the shark”.

    Catholic Apologist claims Catholics and Muslims worship

    Those who murder in the name of Christ have misunderstood the clear message of Jesus. Those who murder in the name of Allah have correctly understood the clear message of Mohammad. You are foolish to draw equivalence between the "Lord God" and the "god of this world". 2 Timothy 3:1-9 [NIV] 1...

    Catholic Apologist claims Catholics and Muslims worship

    So answer my questions about that ... when a Muslim murdered people at a music festival because God commanded it ... was that the same God as the atheist and Christian? A simple YES or NO (as Joe requested). [You have 2000 years of Christian thinkers to fall back on ... I only have the "word of...

    Catholic Apologist claims Catholics and Muslims worship

    I am prepared to entertain the very real possibility that a Catholic offering prayers to an icon of Mary and a Muslim offering prayers to the "Allah" that Mohamed invented in the Quran are both praying to the same "god", however, that god is not Jesus Christ ... the One True God incarnate ...

    Catholic Apologist claims Catholics and Muslims worship

    "Appeal to authority" fallacy. Hinduism predates Christianity by more than a thousand yeas, so they must be correct and we must be wrong according to your argument.

    Catholic Apologist claims Catholics and Muslims worship

    I have invested 40 of my 60+ years examining the existence and nature of God … and what He asks of us. So, there is nothing “hasty” in my conclusions. The Apostles John and Paul were also highly intelligent people who have explained the answer to these questions and I place more faith in the...

    Catholic Apologist claims Catholics and Muslims worship

    The first question is a logical fallacy (“excluded middle” or “false dichotomy”) that assumes a binary “YES/NO” answer exists when one does not. There is only one GOD, however, the question of “What is worship?” is more subtle and complex. As I asked, when an Israelite offered their child in...

    That’s not a real beard, that’s one of those “sissy beards”. ;)

    Catholic Apologist claims Catholics and Muslims worship

    I agree. My comment was more a commentary on the first video in the OP where a man named Joe asked a “yes/no” question that cannot be answered with a simple “yes” or “no”, then quotes Christian leaders offering honest answers that Joe mocks for not being a simple Yes or No.

    Catholic Apologist claims Catholics and Muslims worship

    Paul said no such thing, read it again and read ALL the words, not just the words you like. Is "worship in ignorance" actual "worship"? What does Paul say about their worship and God's "need" for anything? Is God really just another "UNKNOWN GOD" among the pantheon they worshiped? You assume...

    You have a low opinion of the truth of God. :(

    Baptist rips John MacArthur

    Matthew 12:33-37 [NKJV] "Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or else make the tree bad and its fruit bad; for a tree is known by [its] fruit. Brood of vipers! How can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. A good man out of the good...

    Catholic Apologist claims Catholics and Muslims worship

    Acts 17:22-31 [NASB] 22 So Paul stood in the midst of the Areopagus and said, "Men of Athens, I see that you are very religious in all respects. 23 "For while I was passing through and examining the objects of your worship, I also found an altar with this inscription, 'TO AN UNKNOWN GOD.'...

    Why Didn't God Give Scriptures To The Nations During The First 4 Millennium Of Human History

    [Genesis 8:15] [Genesis 46:2] [Deuteronomy 30:10] [Mark 8:34] [John 10:27] [John 12:26] [Genesis 4:6-9] [Deuteronomy 30:10] [Isaiah 42:24] [Matthew 23:37] & [Luke 13:34] [Ephesians 1:3-2:10] (among other places ... that is the core message of the NT)

    Why Didn't God Give Scriptures To The Nations During The First 4 Millennium Of Human History

    Actually, it did ... ... you simply rejected my answer (which is your right). 1. face to face verbal communication. 2. written rules for men to follow. 3. a living example to draw men to himself. God revealed progressively stronger "medicine" to prove that nothing less than CHRIST nailed to...

    Catholic Apologist claims Catholics and Muslims worship

    "And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among mankind by which we must be saved." - Acts 4:12 [NASB] … it is either TRUE or it is NOT TRUE.

    Catholic Apologist claims Catholics and Muslims worship

    … and whether what they offer to THE ONLY GOD is indeed “worship”. When an ancient Israelite sacrificed their child to the fires of Molech, was that “worship” to the one True God? There is only one God and the child was an act of worship. Likewise, when a devout Muslim embraces the command to...

    Catholic Apologist claims Catholics and Muslims worship

    Joe is being a little dishonest. If I say “No, Christians and Muslims do not worship the same God.” … then that would suggest that Christians and Muslims worship DIFFERENT Gods. Are there really multiple Gods? No, there is only one God (supreme creator). So, when a Muslim or Hindu...
