What do you think about this concept? That's the answer right there though. the majority of christians think any other faith besides their own is evil. certainly "wrong". 2009: Mermaids and Dolphins... | |

I have a friend from college who's Jewish and whose dad is a rabbi and was very serious about him meeting a "nice Jewish girl." Fast forward a couple years and he's in grad school and winds up knocking up this girl who's basically a Catholic version of him with parents who want her to marry a nice CAtholic man. I could only laugh. www.adamjames.net -official website

I understand it but because I'm not religious it doesn't mean a whole hell of a lot to me. [Edited 7/16/08 14:22pm] | |

.. there is no such thing as this right here.... this is where a Christian is suppose to have spiritual discernment... just cause the dude is fine, doesnt mean he is for you ... The Devil was fine.. the most beautiful thing God created, but .. he is fallen .... you dont connect with a guy just cause he looks good or he is saying all the right words to impress.... it takes time to get to know a person and if the dude's conversation doesnt line up with what the Lord would want, then he is the wrong one..... why the unequally yoke comes in is cause... people who dont believe in Jesus will pull you away from Jesus... ... yes, Solomon is a PERFECT example of this... the Bible says Solomon's heart wasnt right with God cause of all the women he married... those women were idol worshippers (which God told him to stay away from them) .. but because the women were beautiful.. Solomon went after them [Edited 7/16/08 17:05pm] | |

Paul wrote II Corinthians and the verse (14 not 13) sates in regular English "Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness" I see that as a believer in God being with someone who does believe in God or wicked people However, I can't find anything like this is the Torah | |

Emotional and spiritual connection has nothing to do with looks and there is such a thing as those two | |

"Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?" What does "unbelievers" mean? One person is Catholic...they believe in God and Jesus. The other is Methodist or Baptist...they believe in God and Jesus. Who is the unbeliever? Who is "dark" and who is "light?"

God even said they couldnt eat certain foods.. alot of foods actually .. He told Moses (and Joshua).. there were times they could take the spoils of their enemies (when they were defeated).. and there were other times God said 'No, dont touch the unclean thing' of the enemy .... there is even in the Gospels (the Gospel John 4:9 a Samaritan woman) where the disciplines could not preach to the Gentiles, only to their brethren the Jews.....and it was talking about Jews laws of the OT | |

ok. I told him that he could not guarantee he was going to Heaven or anybody else in his same faith, so why not give the child both faiths and let them decide when they are an adult on what's best for them. It didn't agree with me, but I've never thought I would pass up on love because of a difference of religion...unless it's evil
