    totally off topic, but trini_gsr I saw your name and I'm wanting some roti and doubles now...

    back on topic, I do know there's but one God, but I'm a little lost on your answer as to if there are multiple "view" of God (i.e. God, Allah, etc.) Are you saying that (my) God has placed different "views" of himself in different cultures, where in the end it all leads back to him?

    If so, I don't agree. To purposely have multiple views of God is not in His nature. I wont go on since I don't know your answer.

    lol...been a minute since i had doubles. never had them in atl...personally i find the roti shops here in atlanta are decent at best. i just get my fix when i visit the fam back in south FL...

    but anyways...to answer your question, I'd say that the "end of the road" is going to mean different things to different people, depending on their spirituality. But I don't think it's something God does on purpose. I just think it's a little arrogant to expect every single culture in the entire world, with all their myriad differences, to have the exact same concepts about something as complex as God and spirituality.

    but let me ask you this question - how do you know what God's nature is? and what makes your source of information superior to anyone else's, objectively speaking?

    Exactly! One God, one Creator, one Saviour, one truth for ALL.

    People want to think in that as long as they serve 'a god' that is sufficient.
    Frankly, the idea of questioning God's sovereignty is the heart of Lucifer's rebellion.

    How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
    For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north:
    I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.
    Is 14:12-14

    lol. are you serious? nobody's questioning God's sovereignty here. It's the very idea of what God means to different ppl that we're discussing. Again, you feel it's reasonable to limit God and put him in a nice neat little christian box. And to tell everyone if they don't see it your way...then they have to be wrong.

    again I ask you...what gives you the authority to make a claim like that? Why is your holy book better than theirs? either side can say "oh it's because my God told me so." doesn't this seem just a TAD elitist? This is the same mentality that promotes intolerance between cultures, and allowed for the Crusades, the Inquisitions, and even slavery to last for as long as it did.

    You guys need to really broaden your horizons...and try thinking outside of the box. I suggest you sit down and speak with some devout ppl with different cultures and religious backgrounds about their experiences...then maybe you won't be able to so easily dismiss them...
