Re: Christians: Beware of Mitt Romney!

I love histroy and sharing it. So let's get to it. Muhammad was a general of a tribe of Arabians. He conquered, pillaged, and murdered other tribes. However, after conquering so much he needed a way to control them, now any smart man will figure out a nation with extreme differences in religion and...

I know Gay people and have asked them the question. I have primary evidence. Where is yours?

Re: Will Creationists Admit They Are Wrong and Apologise?

If you read the Bible from beginning to end the Old Testament says we should stone homosexuals but Jesus gets rid of the death penalty when he tells his fellow Jews not to stone the adulterous women is one simple example. This is no contradiction y#-o , remember Jesus didn't cancel the law, he fulf...

Re: Homosexuality

Speaking to Gay friends and Gay colleagues at work all of them say that when they were young they were attracted to men therefore God made them Gay. They all came from Hetrosexual families too. How do we reconcile God saying it is a sin when he obviously creates people born Gay? Wow, that's a power...

Re: The MOST Important Video About Israel You'll Ever See!

Interesting links but Israel means people who wrestle with God. The land God is talking about is the new Heaven and the new Earth. Israel (the country) has rebelled against God. They use the old Testament to justify doing evil to others (Just as the Islamic Terrorists use the Koran to attack non bel...

Re: Homosexuality

That verse does not answer my question. God does sometimes create people who are gay. That is a fact just like sometimes God does not answer our prayers the way we want or God does not always heal. These are facts which unfortunately some of us ignore. This makes Christians look ignorant and naïve a...

Re: Will Creationists Admit They Are Wrong and Apologise?

Some atheists say the world was created by X... but no one knows unless they invent a time machine. Also no Christian can take the Bible literally. Or there would be contradictions inconsistencies etc.. I see. y:-? What contradictions are you talking about? If you read the Bible from beginning to e...

Re: Homosexuality

Widge, how about actually repsonding to comments directed towards you, instead of just speaking platitiudes. That does not answer my claim that our churches focus on judging others when Jesus told us not to judge and Jesus told us not to cast the first stone. Speaking to Gay friends and Gay colleag...

Absolutely not.... That would be the dumbest thing to ever say. No one has ever said anything like this on this forum. We want what's best for them.

Re: Can God Ever Have An Original Thought?

Yes as he created all so he does have original thoughts The only way you could say God has original thoughts is that if ALL of the thoughts He EVER HAD or WOULD have are also considered original ones - as God is ALL -knowing, then ALL of His thoughts must be SIMULTANEOUS. He can't know something la...

StMonica, could you please tell me where the bible says this?
The Bible does not say we need to do works to be saved. That is the point of Jesus Christ dying for our sins

Re: Will Creationists Admit They Are Wrong and Apologise?

No Christian takes the whole Bible literally. It is impossible. I am sure there must be another thread on this. Like Law you read it purposively and literally in context. How does anyone know how the Earth was created? 100% that is? i din't get your point here Widge? or are you addressing someone e...

Re: Lying or Deceiving to Evangelize

I agree with neo on this. Especially the nazi illustration. This is the only problem I have: He justified this by saying, "Well, we weren't really lying!" Why would he have to tell you he wasn't lying. Couldn't he just have said that he felt his lying was justified in this case? People wh...

Re: Can God Ever Have An Original Thought?

My small group was recently discussing characteristics of God, of His standing outside of time, how the distant future is to Him as is yesterday. I made the statement that "God has never had an ORIGINAL thought." And, for a moment, everyone looked at me with a strange, worried ("that...
