Okay, I am starting to wonder, if God hears the cries of everyone praying for Terri, why doesn't He intervene and do something :x ? Does this mean there is no God and people that are healed thinking it is a devine miracle is actually a self physcological thing? Where is God????? Maybe Terri wants t...

It's an abomination, and it's lust. And before anything else is said, let me say, leaning to homosexuality isn't wrong, if you are tempted to have relations with the same gender, that isn't itself immoral. The actual act of doing it is. It's the same with murder-I can think about it, but it's wrong...

I dont know, it just seems shakey to live your entire life by a book produced almost two thousands years ago. I think the question that needs to be asked is, Is the Bible truly the word of God? People still rely on Aristotle, Plato, and many other Greek philosophers when dealing with law and scienc...

Everyone else is pretty cool, but did any of them directly father our Christ?

David was awesome, but was he THAT holy?

I had a dream last night...

It was quite a peculiar one too. I dreamt that Terri Schiavo was healed of her vegetative state and was testifying against those who wanted her to die. It felt so real, the dream that is, I thought I was awake and watching a miracle. Last night I prayed that Terri wouldn't die and that she would be ...

God called everyone to a certain greatness, talent or destiny. They may not become rich and receive the praises of the world. But they will receive blessings abundantly. The problem that we as human beings is concerned is the fact we don't trust God to the fullest. Our disobedience prevents God fro...

Where did I compromise? I said I'd rather have one than the other. It is assumed that I MUST have one. You can't have either, even if it's forced upon you to have to choose between having one or the other, both must be rejected. Even though I know what you're talking about, that's not how the world...

Through Jesus all acts against God are forgiveable. Every single one. The only unforgiveable act is rejecting the Holy Ghost, because that's how God forgives you. It's like suffocating because you refuse to put on an oxygen mask.

attentionkmartshoppers: the plagues could have been natural, that's okay.

The gay gene is a crock for one obvious reason-gay people don't have children-obviously (though, it's gross to think about it, they are now adopting and having surrogate mothers and such. Ugh) That's interesting, though, the religion gene. I hated reading about it from the naturalistic point of vie...

I found a contradiction between a research paper on evolution written by an 8th grader and Darwin's Origin of Species.

Yeah, same idea, except the Bible > Darwin.

This is an interesting topic of discussion. For further reading, Brian Greene's "The Elegant Universe" is a fairly easy read and is pretty mind-boggling. Read it! I've also read "The Fabric of the Cosmos" by the same author. I'm sort of troubled how he doesn't ever consider inte...
