Re: BIBLE: Literally or Not

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, all I am reading here are contradicting stories about an extremely important event. This actually adds to the validity of the Bible and does not detract from it, it is quite well established that it is normal if people see a certain situation and...

Re: Negligence

I'm not angry with God, but I am deeply saddened by stories like this. It's not the fault of faith or belief, it's the fault of organized religions and their leaders who manipulate people using religion as a context. I don't think anyone can argue that the pastors advocating for people to stop trus...

Re: BIBLE: Literally or Not

We have established that scripture has to be taken with a grain of salt. If we can't literally trust the Bible, the inspired word of God. What basis is there for establishing my lifestyle from it? The tomb and resurrection of Jesus is extremely important, just look at the differences between the Gos...

Re: Jesus

Well, thank you, all children should be able to decide for themselves. I respect you for that, and wish more would follow your example. As far as your Atheist neighbors, honestly, I'm not sure what to say. I'm not quite sure why you're against an Atheist family sending their children to a religious...

Re: Do you have Faith?

Your statement "choose wisely" is threatening and contradictory to what you said in another thread. There are no theats involved in this statement, there is no contradiction, you are reading something in that just isnt there. I try to instruct my kids as best as possible but ultimately it...

Re: Do you have Faith?

Absolutely, I look at it from a logical point of view. It's written in black and white, how are people suppose to interpret it? Interperet with context. I provided full context here: http://discussions.godandscience.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=37892&start=15 Genesis 4 for starters. This is God'...

Re: BIBLE: Literally or Not

Picking and choosing is not the answer, especially when young ones are involved. Ignore this passage of the Bible, pay attention to this one. What kind of leaders are we creating here? y#-o No one is picking and choosing or ignoring, they are reading in it's proper context, what exactly do you not ...

Re: Jesus

I would also like to ask you about Jesus Christ, he was a human, why did he say "Father why have you forsaken me"? Your question was answered at the start of this thread, why do you continue to run with this question when it has been refuted already, Jesus was quoting Psalm 22 and by doin...

I'm not quite sure how you are a "Annhilationist", Hell wasn't mentioned in the old testament, Hell: Deut 32:22 (KJV), 2Sam 22:6, Job 11:8, Job 26:6, Psalm 16:10, Psalm 18:5, Psalm 55:15, Psalm 86:13, Psalm 116:3, Psalm 139:8, Prov 5:5, Prov 7:27, Prov 9:18, Prov 15:11, Prov 15:24, Prov 2...

Re: BIBLE: Literally or Not

The Bible is not for me, it should not be for anyone, not literally. Most people with common sense can differentiate between Moral values without the Bible. This is the problem, a lot of people are raised believing the bible is literally true. They raise their children the same way. Children do not...

Re: Jesus

A point to ponder:


If I walked up to your door claiming to be Jesus, asked you to leave your family to become my disciple would you do it?

If someone else walked up to your door claiming the same thing. What would you do?

This is not a ridiculous question. This happened.


Thanks,
