    On a slightly lighter note, for those who are not sure Check your religion...
    There are three adverts down the left hand side of the page. All promoting Judaism, one wonders if there is an agenda - is the test entirely objective.

    As ratfaced has informed me, judaism is one of few religions not looking to convert you.

    So I don&#39;t think that&#39;s what they are after anyhow if that is the case.

    This site is just another money making con, everyone gets a good reading, and is then encouraged to spend some money.

    This is what they said about me ...

    Rikk, your religious beliefs have the most in common with Unitarian Universalism

    What sets Unitarian Universalism apart from other religions is their view on religious tolerance.

    But it&#39;s not God&#39;s mistake.... it&#39;s OURS...&nbsp; God does not predict our fate.&nbsp; Or is in control of our fate so it can&#39;t be God&#39;s "mistake".&nbsp; Robin Williams once put it in a way you may understand in one of his stand up comedian shows.. He put it in a
    pretending, funny way as if he was God...&nbsp; "I gave you a beautiful world... and you ?&#@<&#39;ed&nbsp; it all up&#33;"&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; We and only we are responsible for our own actions.&nbsp;


    If I create something, then I am responsible for it. God would/should have &#39;seen&#39; what his creation was going to do right from the very beginning. Letting it happen and knowing that it would happen, would make Him responsible.Therefore God could not possibly be the Creator. As I said earlier giving people &#39;free-wil&#39; is only shifting the responsibility from the Creator to mankind.

    This is the reason why I believe that this creation has got nothing to do with God whatsoever. In fact it would be an insult to God to suggest that he created something so imperfect....

    But there you go, billions of people, all with their own beliefs&#33;

    I would have gladly reply to your post (accordingly to my religion&#39;s view of God) but since this topic is about Christianity,I&#39;ll give the christians to debate you on your claims...

    First let us ask the question of why God created us,the answer is to test us for that is why He creates Paradise and Hell,if God were to be responsible for our actions ,why should He create the Hell and Heaven or in any case the Judement Day?The thing is,God is not unjust(i don&#39;t know if this is the right word ),He does&#39;nt send us down here with free-will without any guidance and then judge us for the things we did not have any responsibility on,and this is where religion comes in,He orders us to do good and refrain from doing bad ,but it is up to us to choose to follow his Commands or to ignore it,this world is not ever-lasting one day,.it too will be history,for our true place will be on either Paradise or Hell,

    Still a bit of a strange thing to do. First create some imperfect beings. Then provide temptations and tests at every turn. He, being God, would be able to see the ultimate outcome of his creation. Just a Godly game? Something to do out of boredom? It just does not add up to me.

    Now if this creation is the result of a devilish plan from Satan or some other Creator(other than God), then it might possibly all begin to make some sense.

    In my eyes God would have to be perfect. Being perfect, to create something that is imperfect is for me a contradiction. So still I feel that this is not a creation by God, Allah or Ishvara or whatever name one prefers to use.

    OK human-pet, thanks for your view.
