Christians claim there is only one son of God. He came to Earth to help mankind. What happened to the Daughter of God?? I'm sure there are things only a Daughter could show us. When is that Daughter of God going to show up?? I'm going to feel slighted if the Daughter of God never shows up. I bet a lot of women will agree with me.
Is God prejudice against women?? Not only does God not send us a Daughter, but all His messengers and prophets seem to be men. What kind of a god does this?? Does it really add up??
OK!OK! When one questions the teachings of religion, their holy books and their stories, things can pop up that simply do not add up. The reason they do not add up is because they come from mankind not God.
Let's take a few steps back and really look at what God is really doing. Let's let the truth show itself to determine who can see.
God treats all His children equally. The Daughters of God are already around us today, sharing their special view with the world. We are all Children of God, Sons and Daughters alike. We are all Special and Capable of doing Great Things. It Lives within us all. All we must do is Act! Through our every word and action, we are all messengers of God. Let's be sure to send God's message of Unconditional Love to the world today!
See, reality is so much better than stories. People can be hurt by stories. No one gets slighted with the Truth and Unconditional Love.

Jesus is the only begotten child of God. The rest of us who are children of God, both male and female, have been adopted by God.

The more general term includes the less general so 'child' includes 'son' therefore referring to Jesus as a child of God is valid and true. Arguing that such is not getting the 'story straight' is invalid and false. A rather silly remark Bird..

Like you say, reality is better than fiction so why make up such?

You miss the point. It is not I making up the fiction. When you start to question rather than merely, blindly accept, you see things that do not add up. Just like all the physics of this world add up, so does everything about God. How can you ever discover God without questioning all those beliefs?? So many of them, even long held beliefs simply are not true. Do you seek truth or the comforts of blind faith?

urbandekay, I realize things do not add up for those who lack the knowledge and are running on beliefs. See, you have many many avenues for discovery. Science as well as religion depend on beliefs. Beliefs should point the direction by which one should search for the truth. Indeed, science is working on this. Is religion??? Beliefs are no more than a patch which covers the gap when the facts are not known. Without beliefs, we would lock up just like my old computer does when all the facts are not known. The real problem is when people value beliefs over facts or as facts.
Time is a slippery slope. It's not as constant across the universe as your science depends. Indeed, there is much to discover. One should not overlook that which stares us in the face. It's about seeing what is rather than try to bend reality to beliefs. Better???

That is very muddled, you claim
1. all the physics of this world add up
2. Science as well as religion depend on beliefs.
3 things do not add up for those who lack the knowledge and are running on beliefs.
4. Beliefs are no more than a patch which covers the gap when the facts are not known.
5. Time is a slippery slope. It's not as constant across the universe as your science depends.
So,
6. From 3. If there is reliance on belief then things do not add up
7. From 2. Science depends on belief
8. From 3 and 2 then Science does not add up
9. 8 contradicts 1.
also
10. My science? Actually Einstein's relativity (general theory) states that time varies across the universe but what is the relevance of that statement to his conversation? It seems to be no more than a red herring

When I discovered that the Bible simply did not add up, I went on a journey to discover God and the real truth. I started my journey through observation of God's actions then worked at trying to figure out how and why God does what He does. This journey over time brings great understanding. It will open doors to more knowledge. You will come to understand how to find God. God is actually Someone. Experience is the very best teacher. Those who hunger to know the real truth are capable of doing just that.
God isn't what religion is teaching. God is Unconditional Love.

Hi bird: God loves us man or woman as their perfect creation. God is both male and female and he (or she it doesn't really matter) doesn't have our prejudges.
So Why God chose to send a son and not a daughter? It could be a daughter but he chose a son because of the historical context. Jesus was born 2000 years ago, in times where women has a second role on societies. Women didn't have a voice until recent years so that's the reason why we don't see too many women in the Bible.
However, the world evolves. In my religion we have a lot of female leaders and saints. I am a Catholic by the way. Have a nice day.

"We are all children of God just like Jesus."
Now there you go making up fiction, thought you said reality was better?

We are all children of God just like Jesus. Each of us are capable of doing great things and many are as we speak. Fame is not a criteria for greatness. Sometimes even a single act of kindness can make a difference to many generations upon generations. Our choices and the way God places us in this world make a real difference.
What religion you are makes no difference. We are all on a journey to God. As long as you continue to question and think for yourself rather than blindly accept, you will be headed in the right direction.

Should I say my opinion here?
I think most religions discredit female or discriminate female. They thought female cannot be the leader nor have ability to be the leader.
I don't want to talk a lot here as this is only my opinion and I don't want people to get mad at me...

Oh,I'm mad because you didn't talk a lot. It just goes to show that no matter what you say,some will not be happy. They seem to get even more mad when you speak the truth.
Seriously,Jennyze. I could never really be mad at you. You are such a wonderful person. Realize that people do need to hear your view. Let the Drama roll off your back. Remember, drama is where most of the learning takes place.

You are right. They have much to learn. I have a friend who is really intimidated by strong women. He was really surprised when I said she should be allowed the freedom to explore all her possibilities. Perhaps, in time, he will move more toward understanding as well. That comes from people willing to point the way even though there might be a little drama. Ask yourself,doesn't what you know need to be heard??? I think in many cases,Yes!
Tell me when a religion allows female to be a leader?

In holy book of Christian and Islam, both of them adopts patrialistic system which mean son and / or the firstborn will put in higher position. If both holy book not written in that system, maybe we could see / read "Daughter of God"
Just clue for example:
One
Adam is first human who created look like God. If we saw "first human", theoretically we could see word "second human", "third human" etc. But real fact is ..... you know. 
Two
Adam and Eve had children and married. If "incest" is sin, they married with who ??
And remember, Adam - Eve children are boys (in holy book never told they also had girls)
Understand what I mean ... ??

Yes, you understand. Those stories might make interesting reading but they are not reality. Still we see people trying their best to make Adam and Eve fit the creation of the world. Clearly, God has much more intelligence and depth than a simple story. Science is discovering this every day. As soon as science discovers something, they realize there is so much more out there to discover. Simple stories and beliefs can not fill the person hungry to know the truth. Our journey to discovery continues. The journey will be Glorious!!

As believer of God (any religion), we must see and understand messages behind holy book written, not just see / believe what is written. Holy book itself is only a book (some writings look like fairy tale stories) but messages on that book beyond human understanding.

Because the people who wrote all that nonsense about god sending his son to save us were men and like most men frightened of women gaining any sort of power

Yes, I wonder why men fear women in this way so much. I have seen men even today get angry and hateful when they see a woman with power merely making statements. Clearly there are issues some men must deal with. Everything is so much better when everyone is considered equal. Many more views can be seen then. Mankind's knowledge expands anytime the view gets greater.

I respect Christ as a great Master (as I respect other Masters we have had). But I feel that to call anyone "the son of God" is part of our human pride. How can we dare say we know what God thinks? You say: how abour women. I ask you: how about ants, tigers, rocks, stars, galaxies, black holes?
I remember a long time ago (ages ago, in fact) when I was a student at the university. The proffesor asked me whether I would like to live in Greece at the time of Aristotle. I replied that I wouldn´t mind, but I had to reincarnate into a Greek man. Women and Germans, my ancestors, were barbaric and women and barbars had no soul then
.
Christ grew up in a place where men had the power. I think it´s wonderful that the Gospels give so much importance to some women although some Gospels were not taken into account by the Caotholic Church. It was the Catholic Church, several centuries ago, who decided that the mother of Jesus was a Virgin.

Yes, mankind has a great part in all holy books. People claim it all comes from God but that simply isn't true. Many claim Jesus is God. That simply isn't true. Like you said human pride is involved but also the desire to push a religion.
Going back in time would prove interesting, however I would be much happier going forward to a time where mankind has overcome all those petty things that prevent the true advancement of knowledge.
You are a Spiritual being in your true nature. That goes with you for eternity. It is who you are. With that in mind, you could never be without a soul.
Ants and tigers are children of God for they too are Spiritual. The rocks, stars and black holes are part of the stage in the great adventure of life.
As far as knowing what God thinks,in this time based causal universe, God's actions can be seen. One can learn much through the actions of another. Further, religion has people to believe God can't really be found. That isn't true either. Your journey to discover takes much work and study before one is ready. One must acquire a basic level of understanding or one would just be confused by the experience.

Ah, but you must still work at seeing WHAT IS. The halo is there. I have seen it with many of your actions. Look again with those loving eyes you so much deserve. Well, if you are stubborn and still can't see your halo, continue to be who you really arethat kind, loving, generous soul looking out for the best interest of those around you. Yes, the halo is there!! Once again, what would this world be without the wonderful daughters of God in it?? It couldn't be the same.

bird123,
You are correct that God works on multiple levels with multiple views and we human beings are usually working on single level with single view, we should not be required to find God because we simply lack the capability. Would you expect a first grader to solve complex physics formulas? That is where we need God's help to understand/find him and that is where religion comes.

It does require Thinking or you will miss the point. God works on multiple levels with multiple views. With such Intelligence involved, one just must look beyond the surface. There is Method behind all the madness. When you start to really see and understand,it changes from dumb to genius. Look again. It's all a test of intelligence. Are you up for it??

God gave everyone a different view to guaranty mankind a larger view than any one person could have. With this in mind, we are the fix for each other. We must be willing to share our view with those around us in spite of any drama that might follow. So often, Drama is where the learning takes place. Sharing your view with others is living life as it was meant to be to the fullest. I know I can count on you.

Just to set the record straight. I'm a man. I hope what people might get from all this is to see holy books for what they are. That's why they don't add up. God wants His children to be able to stand on their own two feet and think for themselves and not blindly follow others. Further,God loves us to question everything, unlike what religion wants people to believe. To question is the start on the journey to knowledge and discovery.
We are all children of God above all else and in case you don't know, God doesn't belong to any religion. We should all strive to understand God not religion. There is a difference.
Oh yes, I love working in the garden too. Something about it is good for the soul.

Well yeah, you are headed right cos where we speak of our beliefs, drama is created for sure. I don'r like drama that much because it becomes very bad when you are face to face with the opposition. It is okay can write here my views, you can count on me to share.
I am a christian but I don't go to church or anything. God is there, but yeah why only in a man. Where is the lady God. Well you are the first one from who I have heard this view and I think it is okay to think about it since we are ladies. Why only male God. I wish we get some answers because I really have to think on this. I am going to weed my garden and while weeding I will think about it. I will get back to you. have a wonderful day.
