What Are Your Thoughts On The Syrian Rebels Massacre Of An Entire Christian Village?


http://www.aina.org/news/20130529024056.…
YOU DECIDE
According to the Assyrian International News Agency (AINA) forces of the Free Syrian Army massacred the village on May 27: “The armed rebels affiliated to the Free Syrian Army (FSA) raided the Christian-populated al-Duvair village in Reef (outskirts of) Homs near the border with Lebanon today and massacred all its civilian residents, including women and children. The Syrian army, however, intervened and killed tens of terrorists during heavy clashes which are still going on in al-Duvair village.”
The Terrible Future Of The Syrian War & it’s probable outcome.http://www.alt-market.com/articles/1535-…
Using Vietnam and other proxy wars as a reference, here is how the war in Syria is likely to progress over the coming months:
1) Heavy weapons will be supplied to the insurgency, including anti-aircraft weapons, leading to increased casualties, especially civilian casualties.
2) Assad will respond with expanded and deadly airstrikes and ground troops will advance with the aid of Hezbollah.
3) Iran will begin openly supplying arms, and step up covert supplies of advisors and ground troops.
4) Russia will increase arms shipments even further, including anti-ship, anti-tank and anti-aircraft missiles in order to dissuade U.S. and Israeli interests from sending their own forces into the area.
5) Syrian insurgents will begin losing ground quickly. The UN will offer to “mediate” a ceasefire, but this will only be designed to allow the insurgents time to regroup, and for the U.S., EU and Israel to position themselves for attack.
6) The UN ceasefire talks will be a wash, if they even take place. Israel will begin regular airstrikes in the name of stopping Iran and Hezbollah from interfering in the war, or to stop them from obtaining “chemical weapons.” The strikes will be aimed at Syrian military facilities and Syrian infrastructure. There will be many civilian casualties.
7) Syria will respond with ground to air and ground to ground missiles. Israeli cities will see far more precise targeting than the scud missiles used by Iraq during Gulf I and Gulf II. Civilian deaths will be much higher than expected, despite common claims that Israeli missile defenses are the most advanced in the world (Israel has never faced the threat of advanced Russian missile systems).
8) A no-fly zone will be announced over Syria, enforced by U.S. and Israeli planes, along with anti-aircraft batteries.
9) A violent attack will take place in Israel, likely against a civilian population center (I would not be surprised if chemical weapons are involved). The attack will be blamed on the Assad government, or affiliated allies. It might be a real attack or it might be a false flag. In either case, the result will be the commitment of Israeli ground troops.
10) I think it highly probable that Israel will be the first Western country to invade Syria. However, their involvement will immediately draw a declaration of war from Iran, and, increased ship movements from Russia, which maintains a strategic naval base off the coast of Tartus.
11) Israel will be swallowed up in a strategic quandary, and will demand U.S. military action. The U.S. will supply that action. Combat will spread into cross-border battles in countries not directly engaged in the fight (as it did in Cambodia during Vietnam).
12) China will respond with economic retaliation, dumping the U.S. dollar as the world reserve currency. Russia will respond by reducing petro-product exports to Europe and staging a massive naval presence in the region. From this point, all bets are off…

Where Does The Modern Christian Concept Of The Afterlife Come From?


The image of heaven, a society in the clouds with angels and harps and the like is a common motif in pop culture, great works of art, and Christian culture in general. Parents tell their children that Grandma is up in heaven, watching over them and will be there when they die.
Hell, too, has been portrayed as a firey, subterrainian realm filled with tortured souls subjected to any number of punishments. Satan is depicted as a red skinned demon with horns and a goatee. People talk about how child molesters and serial killers will burn in hell as soon as they die.
Yet, the Scriptures are not consistant with these images. I suspect much of this imagery comes from pre-Christian traditions, but when did they become authorized by the Church (if indeed they ever were)? If not, how did the perception of the afterlife in such terms come to be so widespread?

Is Being Gay Going To Stop Me From Becoming A Christian?


Some of my friends are studying the bible with me & I haven’t told them I’m gay yet. They’re expecting me to get commit soon, & I really don’t want to commit to a religion that doesn’t except homosexuality. I’ve had mental issues in the past from denying my homosexuality & I’m not willing to deny it again. I honestly think its not worth it.
Should I just give up on trying to become a disciple of Christ?

Thanks

Why Are African Americans So Affiliated With Christianity?


Its not a racist Question. I know others are probably just a religious, but i wanted to be more specific. Do you think it had more to do with culture and an upbringing or is there more to it.
I ask this because i’m the only atheist in my African American Family. The rest are Christians. Most just claim it but probably don’t know **** about it or even care to know. I dont see how any one can be a christian “AT ALL” but i guess… Its whatever. So yea, Why do you think so many AA’s are Affiliated with christianity. 87 percent of them.

Why Do “christian” White Supremacist Groups Hate Jews When Jesus Christ Was A Jew?


Most white supremacist groups, in America at least, affiliate themselves with Protestant Christianity. How then, could they claim to hate Jews when it has been historically proven that Jesus himself was a Jew/Semitic? Is there justification for this monstrous hypocrisy?
Jesus was born a Jew and died a Jew. He was born to a Jewish mother in a Jewish community and was circumcised eight days after his birth, as prescribed in Jewish law.
Mary was a Jew, and any jew can and will tell you that if the mother is jewish all her offspring will be jews as well.
