Atheists don't believe in any kind of supernatural divine being. They view Satan as being every bit as mythological and nonexistent as God.

(This response assumes a Christian view of what's "Satanic"; those who call themselves Satanists often have a very different concept of Satan.)

Why is it ok to god bless the American war machine but if you god bless the Iraqi guerillas, that's taboo? Does Jesus approve of American tanks and bombers but not Iraqi IEDs? Does he have something against warriors if they aren't a state run fighting force?

I want to be baptized but I'm 19 years old and I don't know how. My parents, who have both been baptized, think I'm crazy. I don't know what religion I am or anything as we have not been church goers my whole life but since my Grandma has died I feel the need to be more in touch with God. Help me.

We have tried to talk things over and work things out, but it just isn't the same anymore. It is a gay marriage, we are legally married too.

I was suckered into a religious cult (ICOC) for several years and left 3 years ago. It is a very damaging experience. All I wanted to do was do God's will and instead I ended up with a cult - now I can barely look at a Bible or pray. I don't even want to think about church! Why would God allow this to happen? It seems like he is pushing me away. How can I trust Him?

I need to get others' opinions on something that happened to me 4 years ago. I was laying down to take a nap and was drifting in and out of consciousness. After one bout of sleeping/waking I found myself paralyzed and unable to move (a condition I later learned was quite common, and is known as sleep paralysis). At the time I had no idea what was going on, and began to panic. I thought I was dying! Angry that I would die alone in my bed for no reason, I struggled with basically every ounce of strength I had and forced myself to sit up. I was moving by sight alone, because I could not feel my limbs, nor could I feel the floor beneath my feet as I staggered to my feet. Moving slowly, I made my way out into the living room and fumbled for the cordless phone to dial 911.

o.k. my Q is there anywhere in the bible that says u have to worship in a church? i thought that if 2 or more people were to get together & talked about God then that was concider to be congregating. in all the things i remember about the bible is that Jesus talked to all his followers outdoors, it did not have to be in a building. the reason i pondering over this is it seems that everywhere i turn there is yet another church being built,to replace it with the older one that looks just fine,if the congregation grows to big than add on.sure all things need repair.but it seems a lot of old churches sitting there just going to waste!!!
in all of the pictures that are depicted in the Bible,Jesus is outside under a tree with his people around him listening to him Speak the word of God.NOT PREACH!!!!!..NOT IN A BULIDING with stain glass windows ect....

I'm assuming that every culture has some sort of common saying that would mirror the 'As different as chalk and cheese' adage. If this is so how would a native Punjabi speaker express this or what would be the nearest approximation?

According to Christian theologians, the Devil has always done his utmost to gain possession of the souls of men. At the time he entered into Judas, persuading him to betray Christ, he knew that if Christ was betrayed he would be crucified, and that he would make an atonement for all believers, and that, as a result, he, the Devil, would lose all the souls that Christ gained.

What interest had the Devil in defeating himself? If he could have prevented the betrayal, then Christ would not have been crucified. No atonement would have been made, and the whole world would have gone to hell. The success of the Devil would have been complete. But, according to this story, the Devil outwitted himself.
