    Is it time for Christians to become more accepting towards muslims in politics?

    Right, Trump inherited a lot of money from his Daddy and some say he would be a lot richer now had he just invested it in index funds. Instead he invested in beauty pageants, casinos and three marriages – in true spirit of conservative family values, eh? Far be it from me to say conservatives...

    Is it time for Christians to become more accepting towards muslims in politics?

    Alas, even a 43-year old spring chicken such as myself can feel nostalgia for the good old days in which conservatives read conservative newspapers and voted for conservative politicians rather than for reality-TV-stars and Nazi-sympathizers.

    Does anything at all exist without God?

    Well, God created us. Doesn’t mean He’s got a human aspect, does it? As for the question raised: The question of evil is one of the most difficult ones in theodicy and I can’t say I have a definite answer. But here’s an interesting article written by an atheist who interviewed several...

    Is it time for Christians to become more accepting towards muslims in politics?

    Yes, I find this depressing , too. In fact some of the posts here are so full of “Stürmer”-style bile that reading them made me feel physically sick. I can but hope that your friends aren’t members of „Britain First“, an organization that „ every major Christian denomination in the UK … (has)...

    The automatic quote button quoted you. No changes made. However, thanks for telling me to calm down. I can indeed get a bit agitated when it comes to this topic. Not because I’m scared of Muslims and refugees, but because I’m scared for them: In fact the only crime that’s been significantly...

    Is it time for Christians to become more accepting towards muslims in politics?

    So there are ‘Muslim-controlled’ areas in London where police can’t go? Where? Nobody can tell me and the London Metropolitan Police explicitly says there is none: Met blasts Donald Trump for 'London police in fear' claim You’re kidding me! Granted: Pearly Kings are the charming side of...

    May I remind you, too, of the Forum rules: “Do not state or imply that another member or group of members who have identified themselves as Christian are not Christians. If there is an issue where a member seems to have circumvented the basic tenants of the faith in order to join the community...

    I give up. No idea which weird phantasy world you live in, but it sure doesn’t seem to be the same planet I live on. Behold: I’m a woman and I’ll probably meet loads of refugees tomorrow when I freely leave my house and do my daily chores and yet I’m not scared a bit. But of course that’s a...

    Is it time for Christians to become more accepting towards muslims in politics?

    First of all: sorry for mixing up your name. Secondly: sorry for fulfilling a common cliché about Germans, but while I've got a thick skin, I do feel compelled to remind you of the forum rules: “Do not state or imply that another member or group of members who have identified themselves as...

    Is it time for Christians to become more accepting towards muslims in politics?

    While demographically London has probably the largest percentage of Muslims in all of Britain (Not sure, maybe Birmingham has, can't be asked to look it up), it’s unlikely that it will ever be all Muslim. I happen to be married to a real Londoner: well, there's some Froggies, Scots and...

    Is it time for Christians to become more accepting towards muslims in politics?

    Care to explain what you mean by a “no-go-zone” then? I’ll be in London in May and would like to check it out.

    Is it time for Christians to become more accepting towards muslims in politics?

    Londoners tend to take a good curry rather seriously. So that you think curry is a joke suggests to me that you’ve never been to London (or Sweden, or Germany for that matter). What is kind of funny though is that you are trying to tell me that places I frequently go to are ‘NoGoZones’. So where...

    No Stranger, I just remember that the Bible tells me to live by the rules of the land. And like it or not: your land happens to be founded on the freedom of religion. That’s probably why your ancestors went to the US in the first place, if it wasn’t just to flee poverty. Muslims have been...

    Is it time for Christians to become more accepting towards muslims in politics?

    Actually I stayed with my husband’s relatives and we took trips all around town, including the parts that I suspect you might want to declare as NoGo Zones and that my husband declares the best parts for a good curry. I don’t cover my hair and like my Jeans tight, yet none of the many Muslims...

    While ancient Israel may have been a theocracy you live in a nation that guarantees freedom of religion. And it’s kind of funny how fascinated you are with those safe zones, that you would probably sniff at as feminist bogus, if you didn’t suspect they had to do with foreigners. Well: it was...

    Is it time for Christians to become more accepting towards muslims in politics?

    Last time I've been there London was just fine. That said: If you swop the word "Muslim" for others some supposedly 'Christian' Posts here might as well have been written by Anjem Choudary and co.

    Yes, stranger, I remember your astonishing capability to twist plain words of scripture beyond recognition if you happen to find them uncomfortable. Of course Jesus and His parents entered Egypt as refugees, when they fled Herodes. Fleeing persecution means being a refugee. And I would not be...

    Actually I linked you to a comparison between Obamas latest budget proposal and Trumps first. 1:1 and contrary to his announcements Trump wanted to spend more money. You might as well chuck your Bible out of the window then, because it has nothing to tell you. Well, I’ll keep mine, because as a...

    It so happens that I had two lively 8-year old boys running around my house all morning yesterday. One of them has a genetic disease. If he was sent back to his home-country he’d be hospitalized and in pain and he’d have a life-expectancy of about 10. Over here his disease can be quite easily...

    So you don't believe the Gospel of Matthew? "The Escape to Egypt 13 When they had gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream. “Get up,” he said, “take the child and his mother and escape to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you, for Herod is going to search for the child to kill...
