Different Religions

Hello Brigham I'd recommend going to the actual sources (proper scientific research, but not a quick fix!)... If you want to be well-informed you'll need to go to the official website of each religion and then evaluate for yourself. Otherwise you can get opinion rather than fact :? As a student of C...

Jill Carroll, journalist in Iraq

An addition to my first post:

I know that people of all faiths will be praying for a return to justice and peace in the world, including Iraq.

The Christian Chit-Chat forum seemed the nearest... but it's not wide enough.

Jill Carroll, journalist in Iraq

Can I call upon us all to support in prayer all the victims of violence, including kidnap, in Iraq, and throughout the world? This may seem like a tall order, but as Christians we have the tools to help lift this imposition off humanity --- our prayers. Very specifically, the situation of USA report...

Scientific proof of God

Well, my promise of getting back to you "tomorrow" didn't allow for New Year and guests --- many apologies :( All clear now! :) I've looked at that website again, and what I wrote before still applies... As the author of that site mentions Christian Science and Mary Baker Eddy's book expla...

Scientific proof of God

Hello there Jay! It's very late here (1 am) so I'll write more tomorrow :) . But can I suggest that you look at the Christian Science website --- spirituality.com --- to judge for yourself how accurate are Hammond's attempts to link his research to Mary Baker Eddy's Science and Health with Key to th...

after the Resurrection

The "walk to Emmaus" episode (Luke 24) helps answer this question for me... The two disciples were convinced that their dear Teacher, the person on whom they had laid such great hopes, was dead. They were so certain of that "fact" that it took Christ Jesus the whole journey to Em...

Hello there Thinker :) You wrote I have been couped up here in my room for years brainwashing myself that I am the lowest on the human scale of successful people. I rate myself as a hopeless homeless person, but I am not, I just feel strongly that way. Please pray for me if you can as that would be ...

Hello Felgar Thanks for taking the time to dig out the discussion URLs... I've looked at all of them, and found them interesting.

Re: Christian Science

[quote="Felgar"] Cool... A real member of Christian Science. I've wanted to speak with one to get to the core of what you believe. It's funny that in another thread we were just discussing salvation and what it means for us. So I guess I'm ready; please answer the following yes/no question...

Christian Science

Thank you jabez, I very much appreciate your response and the attitude with which you wrote it. I have respect for those of much faith, and that is certainly what it takes to rely solely on our Saviour's finished work of 2,000 years ago for today's troubles. I'd like you to know that I'm currently ...

Christian Science

I'm not very educated about Christian Science. I've heard stories of children dying due to their parents not taking them to the hospital because of "trusting" God to heal them Himself, but not much more. Can anyone share some basic information about them and what's biblical and nonbiblica...
