Cho -

Yes, I beleive, like , you that God loves everybody...

But




Whatever helped you to form the belief of what you indicated above. My goodness. That is not my belief at all. Jewish people are God's children and he loves them as well.
That's a first that I heard that. To me that's an incredibly sad belief. God is a loving God and I know you have nothing against Jewish people, and why should you? They are beautiful people and children of God as well.

This is a question for the Christian theologian's out there. There may even be a difference between their beliefs. Catholics believe in the Holy Trinity, which is the Father (God), Son (Jesus), and the Holy Spirit or Ghost. For Catholics, as I was taught, they are all one and the same. I'm afraid I don't understand it myself so I can't explain any further.

Allheart agrees: LOL - I hear ya. The nuns would be so proud of us :)

CMM - I agree, explaining the Holy Trinity is difficult and even fully understanding it.

Father, (God), Son, (Jesus) Holy Spirit ( and I think Holy Spirit). = Holy Trinity

But to answer the question I think, the Christian God, is God and His son is Jesus. I think it would be the same.

Sorry, don't think I was much help.

Who is the source of all consciousness?! Who is the source of life?!


Kabbalists say that G-d (HaShem) is the Ultimate Reality and the Endless One (Ein Sof) and I agree. We can't stuff something as vast and abstract as that into any rigid concept or image. Even the tetragrammaton is best only a hint, because the One (HaShem) to whom it refers is beyond names and concepts. The Hebrew letters yud, hey, vav, hey is written out in English as "Y/H/V/H." In other words, "was/is/and/will be." Albert Einstein, who is generally recognized as the greatest scientist who ever lived wrote: "Everyone who is seriously involved in the pursuit of science becomes convinced that a spirit is manifest in the laws of the universe. A spirit vastly superior to that of man, and one in the face of which we, with all our modest powers, must feel humble."

Einstein, is quoted that he is not a believer in God.
CMM-Kaleido, As far as his message I don't buy it for one second. many ancient beliefs were of total forgiveness. One group (I forget the name) influenced Ghandi and Martin luther king Jr got it from Ghandi look what happened to the both of them. forgiving enemies sounds good to hear but it is worthless in reality. IMO jesus was not very bright
said lots of ignorant things like "All illness is caused by sin" I am still baffled that people take his words seriously.

Albert Einstein was of a Reform Jewish background, which ironically is the same as myself. He didn't make regular pratice of attending service, but as his quote relates from his own science learned intellect, he concluded that we, as humans, have a superior when observing the mechanisms at work in our universe. I think it is fair to say, as Capuchin pointed out, that Einstein's views was not that of modern Christianity.

Romans 12:
17Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody. 18If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. 19Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay,"[d]says the Lord. 20On the contrary:
"If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
if he is thirsty, give him something to drink.
In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head."[e] 21Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good




MLK was a Baptist Minister. He made a huge impact. Is Civil Rights "worthless," workerbee?

Compare that to his contemporary Malcolm X.

Civil right is is not worthless, that's for sure There are other ways of going about it. MLK and his non-violence beliefs were not the reason of change. He believed is a cause and fought for it Whether he was a Christain or not change would have happened if you work hard enough. Turning the other cheek is silly and not realistic behavior. Being kind to people who hate you is what i am refering too I beleive that jesus said something about "If someone steals from you give him your cloak as well" I don't inthe box you would do that, very few would but it sounds good, in reality no very good. If you are going to quote that silly book of yours quote the MANY parts that condone slavery. I am sure you will say it is not true but i can quote from the Bible as well.
