Re: Downloading stuff from internet...

Aah i see :P Well u say what's wrong with iTunes - noone i know here uses it lol :P (here in SK i mean). Besides, you pay for every song you want to have. Why not get something for free if you can do it - why pay if can have it for free? - thats the typical argument. Besides, if u get stuff for free...

Re: dinosaurs

I just think it's how things went. Evolutionists say we all evolved and so all the steps preceding us were necessaaruy. We could also say why we were here only for the last thousands years; why God bothered waiting 15 billion yrs with a universe with no being woth free will in it - but that was all ...

Re: Marijuana

So looks like weed and alcohol are sinful because they're harmful? or is it more their effects such as hallucinations? somewhere in the Bible says we shudnt consume stuff that makes us hallucinate etc. So, that would mean taking weed for "recreational" purposes is sinful but taking it for ...

Re: Marijuana

Yeah - but we should know our limits shouldnt ve? Like everything - do with moderation. Drinking too. Yes; if we have that 1 glass and stop that's good :) but if then one KNOWS the next will have bad effects and doesn't that's where trouble starts. Sure, many of us have been drunk at least ONCE; but...

Re: Marijuana

Good post B.W. :clap: So in essence you are saying we shouldn't take weed etc and drink alcohol? Or that we should know our limits? But then why should using weed make necessarily a sin and something one cannot inherit God's Kingdom with? SO for example, if someone is a regular smoker does it mean h...

Re: Downloading stuff from internet...

Re: 2012

Yeah heard about the implanting chips thing. Though how does it become evil? How is that bad and what's it to do with end times? Sure we dont wana be controlled but how/why is it THAT significant in terms of end times? I mean, having chips may not be that good thing, though why does it necessarily c...

Re: Downloading stuff from internet...

Yeah good analogy. Though, a sin necessarily? It is easily accessible. Also, the facts i mentioned (it can be streamed for FREE on websites such as YT or others) or apparently u can stream on itunes for free - but pay when listen not on computer - well... what's the point? If it is wrong/sin what is...

Downloading stuff from internet...

Searched the forum didnt really find this but i always wonder whether it's a bad thing - sin - to download stuff using torrents, LimeWire and other similar things. Today it's common to just "get the stuff for free" without bothering to pay for it. In one way could be seen as very bad and i...

Re: Gay marriage and straight marriage

Can a man scoop fire into his lap without his clothes being burned? Can a man walk on hot coals without his feet being scorched? -Pr 6:27-28 Hmm strangely enough, sometimes it is possible to walk on hot coals and NOT getting burned! It often happens, but people have come up with how one walks over ...
