Witchcraft, Wicca and Neopaganism
You are in a circle. Protection from the Goddess or various spirits is invoked. The elements of earth, fire, air and water are called in. You begin to dance slowly around the circle, then faster.

Buddhism History
Buddhism – 560 to 490 BCE
Buddhism developed out of the teachings of Siddhartha Gautama who, in 535 BCE, reached enlightenment and assumed the title Buddha.

Islam and the Koran
The Islamic Curtain separating Muslim countries from the rest of the world is every bit as impenetrable as the Iron Curtain ever was, but who hears a word of it in the media? In Saudi Arabia, for example, which Americans died to protect, there is a total blackout on anything Christian; one cannot carry a Bible on the street or have a Bible study in the privacy of one’s own home. Even in our embassy, over which the American flag flies, Christian church services are banned. It is Read the rest...
Jihad (Holy War)
One of the unique facets of Islam is jihad. Jihad means, “to struggle,” and to some modern-day Muslims it is simply a “struggle with self.” History, as well as the Quran proves, however, that jihad most commonly is understood to mean the holy war waged by the Muslim people throughout the ages, in order to reform the earth against those who reject Islamic law. According to Islamic law, the world is divided into three houses: the House of Islam, consisting of Muslims; Read the rest...
Islamic Teachings Compared to Christ's

Believers, take neither Jews nor Christians for your friends. They are friends with one another. Whoever of you seeks their friendship will become one of their number. Allah does not guide the wrongdoers. Sura 5:51

6 Mormon Beliefs
Here are some of the Mormon fundamental doctrines that the Mormon Church holds to. Although in my life time when talking to a lot of Mormons they might deny some of these doctrines but facts are facts.
God was once a man who lived on another planet
Nothing else comes close to it. We believe that God was once a mortal man on another planet who progressed by living in obedience to the laws and ordinances of the gospel he had on his world, then he died. He became a Read the rest...
Is Mormonism Christian?
“Is Mormonism Christian?” is a very important question. The answer is equally important and simple. No. Mormonism is not Christian. If you are a Mormon, please realize that I am not trying to attack you, your character, or the sincerity of your belief. If you are a non-Mormon looking into Mormonism, or if you are a Christian who is simply researching Mormonism, then this paper should be of help to you.
The reason Mormonism is not Christian is because it, like any other Read the rest...

Treadmills, Bondage, Tombstones and Grace
