You would think they would all have some other form of divine communication. Does this imply that everything goesback to an original religion?

Somehow I doubt I will have problems finding any chalice guys and gals out there but I will give it a shot.
The whole purpose of the Christian Church is "No creed but Christ." (If you are not a Disciple check out this website before you continue to answer this question: http://www.disciples.org )

If the original creed is "No creed but Christ" how do you justify adding bylaws in the denomination about gay clergy?

I AM NOT SAYING IT IS RIGHT OR WRONG! I am simply saying, how can it be placed in this denomination's bylaws when the one creed says no other creeds but Christ?

After being cooped up in a boat for weeks while God was drowning every man, woman, and child on earth, Noah and his clan finally beached and the party started.
And what a party! God told Noah’s clan to be fruitful and multiply and they wasted no time getting the begatting going.
Noah however was the mother of all partiers and eventually passed out from partying too hard.

Later something very curious happens:
(Gen 9:24-25 NRSV) When Noah awoke from his wine and knew what his youngest son had done to him, he said, “Cursed be Canaan; lowest of slaves shall he be to his brothers.”
What did his son do? Noah wakes up and he immediately knows what his son had done to him, and tells his son that because of what he had done to him, he will be the lowest of slaves to his brothers. This not only affects him, but all of his descendants.
What did his son do? What did he do??
Well… here it goes… hang on to your seats. Are you ready?
His son… his son… saw him… he… he… saw him…… naked.

Isn't smart to question things and have an open mind?

With all sorts of natural disasters running rampant in our world does God feel bad about them? Can God feel remorse if God is infallible? Being infallible entails not being wrong and being remorseful entails feeling sorry for your actions. Therefore if God feels bad for something God did then what God did was wrong which would make God fallible. On the other hand if God doesn't feel bad for the death of millions of innocents through natural causes is he really the sort of God people should worship?

I ask this not to cause trouble or start fights. I'm not trying to convert anyone away from their beliefs. I only ask to gain understanding. Please if you answer I'm really only interested in the theist perspective because I know what the atheists are going to say. Also I ask you only attack my arguement, not me, and that you provide supporting details.

I don't want to do porn because it is fake and I won't be able to make as much money as I would being a prostitute, plus as a prostitute I would be able to have sex with more guys than if I were to do porn, and I also would have a choice of which guys I would sleep with. Please help me out.

I really can't stand when someone blows their nose in public - especially in a restaurant while people are eating.

I also find it incredibly rude that people don't wait for others to exit before they themselves enter a doorway.

And lastly, a part of me always wants to say - "you're welcome!" to people who never say thank you when you hold a door open for them or do what is common courtesy.

..But then, that would be rude of me, wouldn't it?

Science is good!

Knowledge is great!

Any religion that denies knowledge and prides itself on belief is pointless!

"vast secrets". I've been learning a little bit about Scientology and I don't understand why so many people believe what he says, unless I'm missing the part about where he got all of his information. I'm very interested in the subject and am just looking to learn a little bit more about it....any information anyone could give would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

War - hasn't there been war on Earth since Jesus died?

Famine - Hasn't the Earth undergone year after year of famine somewhere.

Destruction - There were hurricanes and tsuamies before George Bush, there have been volcano eruptions that brought about a global freeze between the 1400s and the 1800s

Couldn't I have a "vision with Jesus" and write a book about how theres going to be wars and famine and people are going to try and preach about a false Jesus and there will be sin on Earth, murder, plauge, rape, lies and theft, CAUSE WE KNOW THESE THINGS ARE DAILY.

I don't think theres any crediblity to these Bible prophesies.

The only Bible prophesy I believe, is if I add one number to the page number and turn the page, the page number on the new page would be the same as the result of my equation from the previous page number and adding the number 1.

It is a serious problem that churches are silent about "political issues" such as homo "marriage" because they fear losing their tax free status ? A strong church would pay their full tax share and strongly speak out instead of doing the devils work with their silence !
