    This is a simple question, do you follow your religion?
    But, for the moment this question will go only to jews, christians and muslims.
    In jews, christians and muslim they must go to holly place at least one a week, example christian must go to church at least every sunday or muslim must go to mosque at least every friday.
    So, I create this poll.
    For me, my self, I'm a muslim, and always goes to mosque at least every friday to pray.

    I am a christian and don't go every week to church.

    You don't follow a religion, but rather practice it :)

    I am one of Jehovah's Witnesses and I do follow the lead of Jesus Christ, the way he wanted to be followed according to the Scriptures. :)

    Yeah maybe I mean practice it.
    In jew, christian and muslim, they are told to go to their holy place at least once a week.
    This how I make example.
    Do we really go or not? Do we practice it or not. Going to holly place once a week should be simple enough to follow.

    Only Jehovah's witnesses are going to heaven because only they know the way Jesus Christ intended to be followed. The rest of you are WRONG and going to hell!

    lol, so human :)

    Your post shows how far off the track you are with our doctrine. There are a select number who will be in heaven. Most are there already and some still to go. Hell is not a Bible teaching. But, I think you already know that. Correct me if I am wrong here.

    I know that you believe hell is something invented by catholics.... or am I wrong there?

    But what I want to know is whether or not you see that sweet irony in accusing another religion of inventing something to control people :)

    Well, Catholics came up with the word "Hell" but their idea of it was way way before them. The idea came about 2,000 B.C.E by the Sumerians and the Babylonians. This was found in an ancient Assyrian text where it said "the nether world was filled with terror". But yes, the Catholics started teaching that this was from the Bible. Yet, close study and research can make us see that is not a Bible teaching.

    Not sure what you are getting at here??

    Hello,
    I am a catholic. But I haven't been to church in QUITE some time. I guess reading too much Physics has made me an Agnostic . I wouldn't believe everything said in the Bible. That would include Creationism ( or (Un)Intelligent Design ) and Virgin Birth. Lets just say it was something written a long time ago before man started to understand nature, and trying to use it to explain nature is just plain stupid, no offence. :) .

    ~

    you do realise your religion is less than 150 years old right? what makes you think your religion has the correct "answers" and not any other religion specially considering the fact that your doctrine is simply the interpretation of the bible of a small number of people ?(other than because you simply believe it)

    indeed, the irony really is great :)

    depends on what bible you are talking about. According to wikipedia the jehovas whitnesses translation of the bible leaves untranslated the words "Sheol" ,"Hades", "Gehenna" and "Tartarus" which other translations translate them as "hell"

    you accuse other religions of inventing stuff but if you take a look at your own religion you see a lot of lies(such as the repeted predictions of when the world will end) were made by your religious leaders. And the stuff your religion preaches also changed as it no longer teaches that "the generation of people alive in 1914 will survive until Armageddon"

    both are believe in jesus, believe in trinity, go to church, celebrate christmas... etc
    it's difficult, they have the same root.
    just like syah and sunni, even they are different.... both still islam.

    I'm sorry, I beg to differ. Catholicism is very different from Christianity. Read some of the major differences.

    Anti-Catholic I see. How quaint. Next they'll say a catholic could never be president - oh wait, we had that debate back in the 60's. Same could be said for Mitt Romney. What a world, what a world...
