Job 16:21
that he would argue the case of a man with God, asa son of man does with his neighbor. Job 25:6 how much less man, who is a maggot, and the son of man, who is a worm!”

Psalm 144:3 (Show me Psalm 144)
O Lord, what is man that you regard him, or the son of man that you think of him?
Psalm 146:3 (Show me Psalm 146)
Put not your trust in princes, in a son of man, in whom there is no salvation. Isaiah 51:12“I, I am he who comforts you; who are you that you are afraid of man who dies, of the son of man who is made like grass,
Ezekiel 2:3
And he said to me, “Son of man, I send you to the people of Israel, to nations of rebels, who have rebelled against me. They and their fathers have transgressed against me to this very day.Matthew 11:19 The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Look at him! A glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ Yet wisdom is justified by her deeds.”....

Can anyone who believes we were designed by a god please explain why my arms, wrists, hands and fingers have the same bone structure as my legs, ankles, feet, and toes? This design doesn't seem to be ideal for either walking or writing email, and I've suffered from both carpal tunnel and sprained ankles because of it. Darwinian evolution has a simple and obvious explanation. Our ancestors once used their forelimbs and hind limbs for the same purposes (climbing and grasping) but later generations adapted them to different purposes (running and making tools). But what purpose could a creator have had in giving us the same limb "design" as other primates?

If you do, this person may not be who he say he is You think this person is attractive because of what you read?

You think you know God based on what you read in the bible?

Your blind date showed you he's real by sending you flowers?
Your blind date could be not who he claim to be

You think God is real because a DOCTOR healed you?

I explicitly told my friends not to tell the waitress at Bennigan's it was my birthday...those party parades are awful! I almost got away until another of my friends just had to comment. She really wanted a party parade for me...I didn't...not even for the free dessert.

Will those damn things ever go away? Just give me my cake and shut the hell up!

I do believe in spirits, angels, but not ones exactly that are like Casper or any scary movies. I don't understand why almost everyone I know believes places can actually be haunted like you see or read in scary movies/stories. It presents an unneeded fear. And I just don't understand where they get it from? One of my friends is actually scared to come to my house because I live next to a graveyard. She also believed one time when her and her church went snowboarding their hotel was haunted, because she swears the clock moved backward, and she says that her friend can sense ghosts. Isn't believing in this stuff (especially the fear) just mostly something we actually enjoy, rather than sincerely believe? Because it is thrilling to believe a real place is actually haunted?

Luk 24:41 But while they still could not believe because of their joy and were amazed, He asked them, "Do you have anything here to eat?"
Luk 24:42 So they gave Him a piece of a broiled fish,
Luk 24:43 and He took it and ate in their presence.

I am a college student who is very interested in mathematics and the world around me. I have a series of favorite movies called "The Cube". In one of the serious it brings up the question of a 4th dimension. I then did some research into the 4th dimension and found some pretty fasinating information. But some of the material kind of crossed paths with what I have learned as a christian. Like the big bang, many of those scientific theories. I dont believe in those theories at all. I believe that God created the beginning. But who is to say that God hasn't told us everything in the bible, what if some of the scientific theories are correct but God just hasn't shinned light on those subjects. Im just wondering if its sinful to just think and theorize about these topics, or is it just part of the human condition and God doesn't find it sinful. Thank you.

He was a wonderful priest, the best I ever knew. He died last Monday and if you ever heard met him you understand how blessed we are. I think he forever helped me strengthened my faith. He was always brave and confident, and focused on a person's soul rather than their exterior labels. He hated using words such as Iiberal, conservative, democrat, republican, gay, straight, proabortion, antiabortion, etc. etc. Because they single out the real person. He was a special Catholic priest who was sometimes quite controversal because he spoke out against war from the pulpit, even singled out the Bush administration, and because he didn't take every word of the Bible literally. Last week, he talked about his fear that his brother priests have become "a remote bunch- afraid to be human, afraid to offend."
But that wasn't his Big Message.
His last words were this,
"The quality of unconditional love is, to me, Divine Life," he said.
He sincerely reminded me what life is really about.

Why do we say or at least it seems with all the different medias (entertainment, news, ect) that’s its ok for a 16 year old to wear a bikini that’s barely covers her nipples but yet! A 25 year old can’t take her top off and show her breasts? Doesn’t the 25 year old have more rites to look sexy and in those knows how to deal with things rather than a barely clothed 16 year old?

21 Then a spirit came forward and stood before the Lord, saying, ‘I will entice him.’ 22 And the Lord said to him, ‘By what means?’ And he said, ‘I will go out, and will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.’ And he said, ‘You are to entice him, and you shall succeed; go out and do so.’ 23 Now therefore behold, the Lord has put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets; the Lord has declared disaster for you.”

Your Skydaddy is not treating you people right

You're trying your best to prove he exist

All he has to do is show up. He could save you a lot of work

If God would just get up off of his *** and let us see him, It would solve all the religious problems in the world

Dont try to defend your skydaddy because there is no excuse

I dont want to here this bullshit about the trees are proof or something stupid like that

If your boyfriend stood you up, would you defend him and you dont even know why he did it?
