    OK you can figure it out yourself, I'll start you off with a list of characters
    Dumbldore is God
    Voldemort is Satin
    Harry is Jesus
    The DA in book 5 - diciples of christ
    There's heaps more... the way no one in the ministry believes in harry in book 4 but it turned out to be true that voldemort was back, that's like the pharessi's not believing in christ, in book seven harry sacrifices himself so that everyone will live buthe dies and lives in the end, the death eaters are like demons

    CS lewis wrote the Chronicles of Narnia to explain christianity to his children, the movie is about the sacrifice of christ (asslan the lion being christ)

    Mystries of nature may just be a part of physic that have been undiscovered. However, it's the emotional belief of god that existed within human that tries to explain the current unknown. When human are scared, they usually back away from the truth and try to sabotage the truth. That's the human psychology and its within our nature to be defensive. Having said All that I believe there is no real answer to this question, at least not with our current technology.

    Dear sir : where did you get the idea that nothing is impossible ?
    Doesn't this mean that EVERYTHING is possible ? Have you ever thought
    About what you just said ? Everything is possible ? Can I turn into Elvis ?
    Yes sir that is exactly what you just said .
    Anything is possible ? You mean nothing is impossible ? Can I put the statue of liberty
    In my pocket? This is my problem with religious people , they just memorize a bunch of
    Half baked meaningless cliche's and just repeat them without even thinking or caring
    Whether they make sense . Jesus loves you , how many time have you heard that crap ?
    How the hell do they know that Jesus loves me ? May be my name is Adolph Hitler ,
    If Jesus loves Adolph Hitler then screw Jesus . Good day to all you good people.

    God loves everybody.Jesus even forgave the disciple who gave him away.
    Besides what happened to jews during Hitler's time was punishment from God himself for killing Jesus.It was fate.Hitler was just an instrument in the hands of God.THIS IS MY BELIEF.I AM NOT AGAINST JEWS OR ANYTHING.

    God is an opinion. Some people believe in god and some don't. People believe in different gods but also that there is only one god. Its different depepnding on different religions. Its all opinion

    Cho, some scholars now think Jesus never existed. There were no secular writers of his day that mentioned him. He was mentioned about forty years later or more, like some legends, Robin Hood, and a few others. Very strange
    If he did the miracles then he should have drawn the attention of hundreds of comtemporary writers but did not, leading many to think no miracles were performed. He also never left any writings in his own hand (maybe they were lost) This indicates that Jesus was illiterate as were the apostles or again he neve existed but was made up.

    Hey cho just agreeing with you there is a god and prayer does work if you ever tired it you can't expect things to happen for you straight away nor can you ask for rediculas things like a million dollars god is practical and he loves each and everyone of us here on earth...
    Question... can you see the wind.. no but you know it is there.. we can't see god but we know that he is there

    Have you looked at the sky? Air is completely visible, it's blue when seen from perpendicular to the illumination direction, and red when viewed towards the illumination direction.

    Cho, you have to read what I say. I know Jesus is mentioned but NOT during his life ANYWHERE, that's a fact. He is only mentioned 40 years and more after he died. So some scholars say because of this he might not of existed at all. I question not only Christianity, and Islam but every religion everywhere. Basically I give facts and you ignore them to believe what you want. Doesn't matter to me.

    Mummy duck, You can think that prayer works, but you ignore the RESEARCH prayer does not work at all. It may help people who believe in God by lessening depression or anxiety but not the problem itself If a person has a damaged spine you can pray till you are blue in the face and nothing will happen.
    I never said asking for money I am talking about real healings that's a fact.

    Never underestimate the power of denial
