god's split personalities

[Ganj]

i was watching the news the other day. they were covering a story on the kamikaze bombers that blew up three hotels in jordan. my mother was questioning why they would sacrafice their own life to destroy others. i tried to help her understand that it's because of their faith in God. they believe that God tells them to commit these "wrong" doings, as in america with the christian faith, they believe that God is talking to them also. although most christians aren't out there killing hundreds and thousands of people, it brought upon the question, "who's right?".
can someone really hear the word of God? do we even have a clue of what God really wants for us? just because a person is faithful does that mean that their motives for mass destruction, or preaching the word of God were given to them by the Lord? or could it just be their subconcious hatred is being confused as the word of God?

maybe they hear the word of false gods ?

[beachguy in thongs]

Yeah, really. If God created us all, why would he order a suicide-bomb attack?

Cause God's favour is a good argument to have when you're trying to convince people to do what you want them to.

that is a very powerful song.
the question still stands: what does God want from us? the word of God can't be spread through the vessels of man, because well, we're just too sinister. ladies and gentlemen, we have ourselves a conundrum.

[Polymirize]

does god want anything from us? is god in any way seperate and distinct from us?

[slipknotpsycho]

ever stopped to think that some people are just really racists towards certain countries so they say that their god will do this and that if they give their life to rid the world of "whatever name they use to call americans/christians"

Although it seems War has endured the History of Man, stop and think of peaceful civilizations. Then, think of when you're friends are over hanging out, smoking Herb. Why can't we bridge the gap?
Because Herb is outlawed in between.

the problem is that people carry things off in God's name. the reason that the kamikaze bombers are doing those things isn't directly from God. it's just like the crusades when the leaders of it justified their war and gained followers by putting it in God's name. God didn't tell all those people to fight, it was man. same with the kamikaze bombers, they're convinced that what their doing is completly right, it's from the leaders of the groups, like osama. religion is used to mask and promote their cause.
