Well, I don't know about flattering--more about what is most likely to keep me near God. I have a daughter who told me she wanted to be as close to God as I am, but couldn't seem to get there through Catholicism. I recommended an in depth study of Judaism, and she has been very happy with that advice.Thank you. That’s flattering.

It doesn't.except where islam proclaims that all non muslims should be killed.
That's an ahmadiyya site and it's wrong.
And God has said that disbelievers go to hell.Nope. In Islam that is entirely up to God.
If they commit a crime that has a capital punishment for it in an Islamic country, then that crime would be the reason for the punishment.then why do they behead Christians, Buddhists, Hindus, etc?
Because the sects see each other as doing it wrong. The worshippers only care about one thing, really: punching their tickets to the forever young festival in the sky.Jesus wanted others to say of us, "See how they love one another." Instead they see how many won't even consider joining together for a day of worship.
I disagree with this. People of faith truly wish to live lives that honor God--especially to worship in a way that pleases Him. Anyone who ever thinks of others appreciates wanting to be pleasing to the other. We wish to be pleasing to God, not because we want an afterlife, but because we want to be someone who is pleasing to Him.The worshippers only care about one thing, really: punching their tickets to the forever young festival in the sky.
Well you're wrong, then. Pick up a newspaper. Go outside. Pick up a history book.I disagree with this.
They can come together to appreciate a simple part of creation, no matter each separate belief in when or how it came to be. For example, they can gather at Big Sur for a day of simply enjoying what is.You might as well ask young earth creationists and scientists to come together
Oh yeah? Show me a Muslim taking communion, then.My point is that so many of us can come together in pure worship, honor, and adoration of God without relaxing for a bit any of our chosen Religious sect's doctrines.
You are getting off track. You said WORSHIP together. Focus.They can come together to appreciate a simple part of creation, no matter each separate belief in when or how it came to be.
Been there. Done that. We had a good time, great discussions. The Mormons left Mormons and the Catholics left Catholic.Get a Mormon and a Catholic in a room together. Pick up the Mormon magical instruction book and start reading from it. See what happens.
You are missing what I am saying. There is no Muslim belief in communion. There is Muslim belief in sincere worship of God. Likewise, there is no Christian belief in bowing towards Mecca. There is Christian belief in sincere worship of God.Oh yeah? Show me a Muslim taking communion, then.
*and had a discussion, instead of worshipping togetherBeen there. Done that. We had a good time, great discussions. The Mormons left Mormons and the Catholics left Catholic.
That's right! So no, Muslims and Catholics are not going to worship together, unless one or both of them relax or abandon some of their beliefs, quite contrary to what you said.There is no Muslim belief in communion.
We opened and closed with a prayer. And, no, I had no thought that Mormons are insane, so that sentiment has never been spoken.*and had a discussion, instead of worshipping together
And the catholic went home and told his family Mormons is insane.
Your personal anecdote has no value in this discussion, sorry.We opened and closed with a prayer. And, no, I had no thought that Mormons are insane, so that sentiment has never been spoken.
You do not think Muslims and Christians can join in prayer? The Al Aqsa Mosque is in Jerusalem. One July day Christians and Muslims gathered there to pray together for peace. I am sure there have been other events, but one should show that this can be done--has been done.That's right! So no, Muslims and Catholics are not going to worship together, unless one or both of them relax or abandon some of their beliefs, quite contrary to what you said.
A determination to cling to this small minded assumption bars the way to any productive discussion. Another topic?They followers ONLY care about one thing first and foremost: punching the ticket to the forever festival in the sky.
In the exact same prayer? Nope. Unless you whittle the prayer down to "god is great, lets live forever". Which is just abandonment of the dogma that defines and makes distinct each religion, again, quite contrary to what you have said.You do not think Muslims and Christians can join in prayer?
Sorry, it's a fact. If not for the forever prize, there would be no large Abrahamic religions. It's a simple fact. Ironically, you balk at this, and yet every single Christian church service in the country this Sunday will be reiterating this fact. It's the entire focus.A determination to cling to this small minded assumption bars the way to any productive discussion. Another topic?
Try re-reading my post. The prayer was for peace.is great, lets live forever
