Society & Culture - 6 July 2006

It seems I start off every morning nice cup of coffee want a good serioius conversation, and then bam, someone starts off about how evolution is false, well no it isn't, www.talkorigins.org theres some links there with explanations of the evidence

and then some one with some main worries about life goes off calling someone a grass hopper and telling him he becomes spiritually blind as he grows, well, thats just ridiculous and begs to be made fun of,

could you people stop saying stupid stuff so we could have a real conversation again, please, k thanks

Specifically, How open minded are you about gay people. Do you think loving someone of the same sex is a good thing? Have your ever experimented with your own sexuality. What scares you about gay people?

Please don't put any stupid comments with regards to what gay people do in bed sexually, cos that is not what this question is about, thank you.

It looks like he chose to defy god out of arrogance, so does that mean angels have free will? If he has free will, does that mean he can choose to do good things also? Or is it just “in his nature” to only do evil - is he bound to play the Evil Villain forever? Will god even allow him to do good?

You've seen the exorcist and emily rose and all, but why is it that they were and not many others? I know it sounds crazy but why to these people? Could it be that God was going to use them for something great and the devil decided to interupt? Wouldnt that defeat the whole Good over evil and God is more powerful? I happen to believe God is....but why does this happen?

I can't explain it, you can't explain it. You can preach god or the big bang, but no one knows for sure. Knowing one way or another about how it was created doesn't make any difference in your daily life so don't think about it, live your life and enjoy yourself.

This was what a christian just told me, i was just hoping somebody could back this up for me with some bible-quotes.

Thanks.

(He also called me a grasshopper, but in my own bible i could not find any reference to that, so don't bother looking into that one, i'll save you all the trouble, but thanks anyway)

There isn't precedent for turning on a computer, but why do Christians do that? It's not in the Bible I just did a search on gateway.

YES James 2:17-26 17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. 18 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. 19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. 20 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? 22 Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect? 23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. 24 Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only. 25 Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way?

There is a wealth of information about how many things in both the Old and New Testamnets came to be there. Many of the stories in the Bible are retelling of older myths. There are many books relating to Jesus not included in the Bible that are very different than the ones that were included. It seems like nearly every Christian I have ever met thinks that their version of the Bible is a word for word translation, when it is painfully obvious that many versions of the bible vary greatly from each other. That being said why don't Christians try to find the most accurate translations? Most Christians don't know what sect of Jewdaism Jesus' family practiced? or What month Jesus was born in? (It wasn't December, that is clear from the shepards tending flocks in the fields they wouldn't be doing that in December) Also Christians will pick out what Rules in the Bible to follow, and to ignore. They also will take a single line, out of context to support a bigoted belief, why is that?

In Baltimore, MD and in Charlotte, NC, riots broke out in the cities downtown areas after Tuesday nights fireworks. Predominantly young black men and some hispanics came to the festivals with intentions of starting chaos. They brought bottle rockets, cherry bombs and even guns to use towards each other and then at the police, when they arrived in full riot gear.
It was the actual footage of the riots that upset me so much; All the participants were so young, and they were 90% black. Why do they do this?! Doesn't it just exacerbate the race and violence issues we already have?? Even black congressmen and city council officials are cringing after seeing what they did. If any of you fall into this catagory of delinquents, what is your point? Don't you realize that your making a negative statement about your ethnicity??
