Re: Presidential Election

I am no longer posting at a board where I will be openly told I am doing the work of Satan by brothers and sisters in Christ. I do wish that you would take a look at the statistics I posted regarding how Obama could reduce abortion and that you all can at least understand that I do want to reduce ab...

Re: Presidential Election

Also, while Obama has distanced himself from Ayers, McCain has even said, verbatim, that he's proud of Liddy: http://newsblogs.chicagotribune.com/ste ... s-his.html

Re: Presidential Election

You all are talking about Obama and Ayers, but what about McCain and G. Gordon Liddy? McCain calls Liddy a close friend and accepts donations from him. And to say that Obama is doing the work of Satan and those who vote for him? And that you are not using hyperbole? I firmly believe that abortions w...

Re: RELIGULOUS

It would be more relevant if they specifically tried to disprove Christianity. If they aimed for the resurrection other than making silly character attacks/ad hominem stuff that isn't objectively relevant to anyone. Notice that he lied about whom he was interviewing and often went for cultists and t...

Re: Presidential Election

Blessed are the peacemakers, and I don't view a man who will go on stage and flippantly start singing "bomb bomb Iran" and who has no plans for ending a war that has dragged on five years past President Bush saying "mission accomplished" as a peacemaker. Yes, the world is better ...

Re: Presidential Election

It's not totally unprecedented for us to have had an overall honest, transparent president. However, Carter's policies did not go over well with the public.

Re: Presidential Election

I think that he means that he wants to support policies that will overall reduce the number of abortions by getting at the overall socioeconomic factors that lead to abortion such as directly reducing poverty, but as someone who is pro-choice, he would not support judges who would overturn Roe v. Wa...

Apologetics fields

Like many other Christians, I have found myself drawn to the field of apologetics after staring doubt in the face and, in the end, strengthening my faith. I know that there are several common approaches to apologetics. What are your favorites/preferences? Personally, I like appealing directly to the...

Re: Presidential Election

http://www.matthew25.org/paf/index.htm The idea that Obama supports throwing away children who have survived abortion is simply not true. Check the above link out. As Christians, we need to make sure our testimony is true. I feel bad because initially I did spread the smear that he supports infantic...

Re: Open Inquery: Gambling?

I know this puts me in the minority, but I think that a minimal amount of gambling is not inherently sinful as long as this does not affect your ability to take care of your family, because there is a Bible verse that says that if you do not take care of your family, you are worse than an infidel. P...

Re: Question

I have to agree. We will be rewarded in heaven for what we did on Earth, and it would be strange if we did not know why we were being rewarded. Likewise, in the Lazarus parable, the man in hell seems to have a recollection of Earth (with the caveat that this might not be meant to be an exact represe...

Re: Question

Yes, I think that the passage where Jesus said that there will be no marriage in heaven pretty much seals it for me. I agree with everything zoegirl said. By the way, Joshua, I kind of struggle with the same feelings. I'm young, have found the love of my life and have not married her yet, and having...
