Theo van Gogh was a dutch director/writer who said what he wanted whenever he wanted to say it.
He was a critic of our multi-culture society.
He made a movie "Submission" (SEE IT, you can download it on eDonkey, KaaZaa) together with Ayaan Hirshi Ali (an ex-muslim) about the abuse of women in the name of the quran.
Today november 2, 2004 he was murdered.
By a muslim.
Apperently you're not allowed to tell your opinion anymore.
And you are worried about being investigated by the NSA, CIA or FBI?????
it's all about POWER. Oil is the perfect battery. Hydroelectric dams run 24/7/365, but don't generate at full capacity, because there is no giant battery to store the electricity. The same goes for most other kintetic elec generation systems. Faith, however, is The Energizer Bunny of Political and Social Power, because it defies the laws of thermodynamics, in that Faith sometimes generates more power than is given it by nature. When we develop the Giant Awesome Electrical Battery, it'll probably suck us all in just like the False Faith Battery. Absolute Power corrupts AAAsolutely.

What about Zero-Point energy? It's an unlimited supply of power. All we need is to tap into it. You do not need a storage device. A device that could 'tap into' Zero-Point would continually draw energy as needed and never run out.
Hairy Houdini, you know so little about Chritstianity. A real Christian would tell you than killing (asasination) is a sin. I don't know of Christians killing someone because they criticized Christian faith or teachings. Show me one.

Tell it to the Hebrew voices who've been silenced by Christian Nazis, and Hindus of India beaten and murdered by Christian British, the Hebrews and Moslems persecuted by the Christian Spaniards. Don't get me started, Dude. I could go all night listing groups of "religious" people who've committed heinous acts in defence of their faith or grasp on power. Zealotry of any faith, or lack thereof is dangerous. I offer my sincerest condolences to those impacted by Mr. Van Gogh's asassination, and extend my hope that this unfortunate, terrible act will lead to fuller understanding amongst differing peoples.

paul, religion is going to SAVE this world...I.E. Christ's death saves the belivers from the horror of eternal suffering, I.E. The second coming of Christ which will whipe out the sinners and save the true belivers, will indeed punish those not worthy to come into heaven.
Paul you are one of them, compaining about religion.
May god have mercy on your soul.

...I can only add that a true undeniable Christian would never (I do mean never) act out the heinous (sp?) things that you have mentioned. Satan has helped perpetrate the idea that "christians" do terrible things in the name of God. Who is a true undeniable Christian? Well, that's between you and God.
'Satan has helped perpetrate the idea that "christians" do terrible things in the name of God.'
Satan? "Christians"? Do you honestly think that either the crusades did not happen, but were made up by Satan as a gag, or that the crusaders didn't think they were acting as good Christians? Here's a clue: they did. They thought the best way to glorify God was to take the Holy Land by force, and it mattered not one jot how many Moslems died in the process. And if you asserted they were not "true undeniable Christians" they would probably have killed you too.

I'm sorry, did I say I didn't believe these things didn't happen? Not once. I know the crusades happened, I know that Jews, Catholics, & Gypsies were killed in the Holocaust. The only problem with being a Christian is that you can't prove it. It is often thought of as more of an attitude of morality than an experience or lifestyle.
Nothing was 'made up'. Satan set his plan into motion & it worked. Now, people hate Christians because of their 'bigoted & hateful' ideas. God created Satan, the Earth, man & woman. Satan is a created being. He could never have more authority than God, but he wanted it. Essentially any life away from God is torment (please don't tell me you aren't tormented, that it not the point I am trying to make), so Satan was to live apart from God. Once Satan was on Earth he tried to take control of the only things that had authority here. Man & woman. When Satan tricked the woman into eating the fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good & evil, & she in turn gave it to the man...this seperated them from God also. This is why atonement was created. Something needed to bridge that gap. You had to go to God to atone for your sins. Blood was the only price high enough to cover 'original' sin. This laid the course for the Birth of Christ, His death, & His resurrection. Accepting this, knowing it, believing it is the only way you are a "Christian".
God has sent His people into war. Think King Saul, David (remember Goliath?). God told David to go into a town & kill the people there. David was killing people who were worshipping false gods. "Vengence is mine," says the Lord. God sent David, because people seeing David the Hebrew killing the "un-clean" would only glorify the Hebrew God. Were the muslims killed during the Holy Crusades worshipping false gods? I believe so. Did God send someone to kill them? Possibly. I don't have any way of knowing...since I wasn't really around at the time. The Haulocost...terrible, awful...but did God send Hitler to 'cleanse' anything? I don't believe so. Hitler's mind had been filled with strange ideas about people...ideas given to him by who? Satan. Yes, His people prayed & worshiped & asked to be delivered from their Earthly Hell. God had given them their answer & they had rejected it. Being 'Jewish' is like being black or white...it's your race. Not your religion. God gave them their prophet & they killed him. But it was always to be so.
I really didn't want to turn this into any kind of lecture or sermon...but I felt that some things needed an explanation or you wouldn't understand. This is my last post on the topic.

Of course the crusades happened. After the Muslim armies conquered most of the Middle East, murdering Christians and Jews, the church at Constantinople asked for help and the church in Rome responded by sending over troops. I am not ashamed of the Crusades, it bought time for Europe and saved it from being conquered and driven into slavery.

Jesus is not god , he is prophet ( human being ), but fool predict him is god , and European people , slander by altering holy book , did you know why ? that because when they open " dead case" jesus , in the reality he is in and do not like story . and us merely human being influenced by hateful passion , war , grinding , and stupidity . Christian people the example trust reincarnation , though that have never been taught by Jesus .
And me trust to my god , because each every me pray God always granting it , I ask rain God give it , I ask wind God give it , and I volunteer die for the shake of him .
