So many people interpret the bible in so many different ways and say that this passage is this and this is only a parable, this should be taken literally, so why do you believe that person is telling you the truth, since you don't even know these people

The US Roman Catholic bishops at Los Angeles Meeting Ok a new translation for Mass
1 example of change (of many)--The act of Penitence in which parishioners now confess aloud "through my own fault, through my own grievous fault"

It seems they feel the word sin is too harsh a word . And would like some changes in future. And that now times would mean updating some old believes. The vote on changes for future was 175 in favor to 29 in opposed.

When did sin become a bad word? All comments welcomed

My partner and I have wanted to have a threesome for a while. We don't want it to be with a close friend. I have known couples that pick up girls all the time and have no problem. We are going out this weekend and I am not sure how we go about it. We are both attractive and charismatic, but really have no clue... Can someone be serious and help me out?

John 12:31-32 Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.....And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. These words are printed red in the KJV, which means Jesus said them,is that right?

I don't believe in the bible or other religions. They're views and ethics are good, but I don't believe in the 'facts' they suggest. I can't have that much blind faith in a book (bible) that has been written by a person, and re-written 1000's of times over 1000's of years by 1000's of people.

For one thing, Adam and Eve: Think about this. One man and one women populating the earth..? No. It's impossible, but how else is someone from the that time frame suppossed to think mankind started. Evolution would be beyond their thinking and likely an instult. I know....it's not impossible because of god. It makes things simple like that. God is the answer to anything and everything:questions we can't answer=god, something to pray to something to blame, something to thank =god.

For the same reasons as above, I can't just not believe in god-I too need something to blame or pray to/hope for and thank. God is a crutch for man and whether he exists or not, we can't live without him.

Do dreams have meanings, if so what do snakes mean?
I heard that it mean that you have an enemy somewhere among me or someone is going to try to hurt me?
I do not try people, what in the world?
what do you think.

I am a Christian, but I do not believe that the Bible should be taken literally. There is so much information that is missing, like historical, cultureal and social context. Also, the original text was written in a language that is no longer "common." I think our "modern" Bible is based on a greek translation, so we are reading a translation of a translation, etc. I don't understand Christians who exclude, spread hate and negativity based on their shrewd interpretation of a "faulty" text. What do you think?

How can America be rid of the disease of Islam without doing harm to the Consitution?

Should we adopt the measures France has? Hijab bans and laws requiring any immigrent to prove cultural adaptablity?

I dont think it will work. As for immigration, no Muslims should be allowed in, period, and I suspect we are already doing that.

So imagine the next Islamic catastropic terror attack from within, what do we do? Well, immediately maybe we do what we did with the our Japenese citzens in WW2, but long term, one solution could be an evolution curriculum.

You see, its the ignorant filthy hate imam's that indoctrinate the young to do their filthy bidding, but what if we finally had a hearty evolution curriculum that competed with these monkeys (no pun intended)?

This law would apply to private school as well, so there of course would be First Amend debates there...but imagine.

Every kid being exposed to teachers dedicated only to evolution.

In Matthew 26, Mark 14, and Luke 22, Jesus says of the bread, "This is my body." He says of the wine, "This is my blood." Not "this is symbolic of," or "this represents," He says "this IS." In John 6, He repeats Himself, like He does nowhere else in Scripture, to emphasize the fact that He expects us to eat His flesh and drink His blood and that His flesh is real food and that His blood is real drink.

Anyone who says He is speaking symbolically, and not literally, simply is refusing to look at all of the facts. Fact #1: The Jews took him literally, verse 52. Fact #2: His disciples took him literally, verse 60. Fact #3, the Apostles took him literally, verses 67-69. If everyone who heard him speak at the time took Him literally, then my question is: Why does anyone today, 2000 years after the fact, take him symbolically?

Also, in verse 51, Jesus says that the bread which He will give for the life of the world is His flesh. When did He give His flesh for the life of the world? On the cross. Was that symbolic? If you think Jesus is speaking symbolically here when He says that we must eat His flesh and drink His blood, then you must also conclude that Jesus' death on the cross was symbolic...it wasn't really Jesus hanging up there...it was symbolic flesh and symbolic blood.

Jesus is clearly talking about the flesh that He gave for the life of the world...He did that on the cross. Those who believe He is talking symbolically here in John 6, have a real problem when it comes to John 6:51. Did Jesus give His real flesh and blood for the life of the world, or was it only His symbolic flesh and blood?

i believe thats if a jehova witness compared the new world translation created by watchtower writers.to any other translation they would see why christian think of the watchtower as acult.on my study the nwt bible changes john 1:1,3 from the king james or anyother version of bibles THE WORD WAS GOD TO THE WORD WAS A GOD AND THEY ADDED THE WORD {OTHER} TO HIS CREATION WHICH IS NOT IN ANTOTHER TRANSLATION I READ SO WHAT THE WATCHTOWER IS TRYING TO DO IS TO MAKE THERE TRANSLATION FIT THERE DOCTRINE THATS WHY THEY SAY THAT JESUS ITS A LESSER GOD. BUT THEY SHOULD KNOW THAT JESUS CAN'T BE A LESSER GOD BECAUSE THAT WOULD MAKE HIM 1 OF 2 THINGS OR HE'S JEHOVAH IN THE FLESH OR HE'S A FALSE GOD SINCE ANY OTHER GOD IS A FALSE GOD.{ISAIAH45:18.} FOR THIS IS WHAT THE LORD SAYS HE WHO CREATED {THE WORD} THE HEAVENS HE IS GOD HE WHO FASHION AND MADE THE EARTH {THE WORD} HE FOUNDED IT HE DID NOT CREATED IT TO BE EMPTY BUT FORM IT TO BE INHABITED HE SAYS I AM THE LORD AND THERE IS NO OTHER GOD
