Evidence for God from Science

It was written in Hebrew. I'm glad to see that everyone is being civil, this is after all a serious issue. :) August and Felgar , Some translations have it written certain ways. Some versions say "...and she has a miscarriage..." , or " she miscarries ", instead of "...she g...

Good point. I wouldn't support abortion so much, unless it was best for the baby. I think people should give it more thought if they just forgot to take their pill. About Adam: I think that their are more similarities of Adam's formation, to your average human's formation. For example, the word &quo...

Is abortion immoral in God's eyes? Is it murder? Before I became Christian, I didn't want to give it any thought, because when you don't have a divine judge watching over you, you make excuses. But when I became Christian, I realized I had to confront the issue. I realized that humans have a spirit,...

Hello Kurieuo, you make some excellent points! I think there's something that needs to be clarified: I don't believe that sex is just a physical act; it can also be emotional and spiritual. I also don't think that something is only immoral if it includes physical pain - I'm talking about emotional a...

I guess there's no point in debating the church. To Catholics, the Church's word is the Church's word. But for all you other Christians out there, I believe in the inerrency of the Bible. I believe that the Gospels and the OT is the true word of God, and I believe that sex in ANY form is an Earthly ...

Well, when countries are involved you need to be absolutely sure, that it is absolutely necessary. A president has a lot to think about, and when he's told, "Mr. President, rebels in a South American country are starting an uprising!" A natural response would be "Well, bomb the f**ker...

Yes, war is justified in my opinion. I think the NT makes it clear that self-defense is okay. I think the OT wars were out of necessity, to save their lives. God knows that life isn't as simple as "let's all just get along". War to save the lives of others is a just war as well. Kosavo is ...

Paul's warnings against prostitution in my opinion is good advise. I'd rather be with someone who cares about me. But as far as young guys being so *ahem* restless, it's just a biological urge (with or without emotion). I don't believe sex out of marriage is bad. I just don't think there's any bibli...

I give the Satan more credit than that. Satan wants to make sex out to be a bad thing so we concentrate on stupid stuff instead of Jesus' real message. If we were more sexual beings we would be less stressed out, and we would be more peaceful people. The term "make love, not war" can go a ...

Oral sex is never mentioned specifically...I kind of wondered how that one got started. It's probably just a great excuse for girls that don't want do it!


"No honey, not tonight; it's against my religion."

Sex has been a hot subject recently, so I felt like I should give my two cents! Sex is a word that describes a physical urge that human beings are born with, and it's safe to say that it's part of our daily life. Many Christians are of the belief that sex, in one form or another, is sinful. It has b...

eu·nuch ( P ) Pronunciation Key (ynk) n. 1. A castrated man employed as a harem attendant or as a functionary in certain Asian courts. 2. A man or boy whose testes are nonfunctioning or have been removed. Could we please realize that this passage doesn't "clearly" mention ANYTHING about h...

I'm saying that the passage has nothing to do with homosexuality. It's about the disabled (reproductively speaking). So we shouldn't have a discussion about a subject based on a misinterpretation.

I just wanted to say something in reference to the quote in the first post by vvart. According to the NIV, that passage was in reference to the poor souls who could no longer use there reproductive organs (eunuchs), and not homosexuals. Kurieuo made a better translation available, but I think the me...

Augustine is a very compelling figure to me. He had many beliefs that were (for better or for worse) very revolutionary. I can't help but guess that many objected to his interpretations of original sin, etc. So I would like any sources of Augustine that address this issue. I'm not talking about any ...
