Do you have the right to tell someone else's children they will "go to hell" for this and that. Do you have the right to tell someone else's children that they will not "go to hell."

23 Now when He came into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people confronted Him as He was teaching, and said, “By what authority are You doing these things? And who gave You this authority?”

Since science is based on naturalism and rejects supernatural explanations ( Like God, miracles, creationism, afterlife, angels, unicorns, and other biblical concepts), isn't it actually anti-bible and anti-Christ as well. Is a christian scientist an oxymoron in this post-modern age? Shouldn't our culture be based on the word of God, and not the wisdom of man? God said it, I believe it, that settles it, amen?

Is this part of a scientific conspiracy to disprove creationism?

What reason would scientist have to want to disprove creationism?

WHY THEY WILL NEVER COMPLETELY ACCEPT US ATHEISTS

1. They will never think our deaths are equal

2. The belief in a Skydaddy is their ultimate comfort zone. Us Atheists very existence bothers them.

3. They're taught that everyone is better off believing in a skydaddy(Even though people are killing in the name of their Skydaddy)

4. They're so brain washed, they dont understand that right and wrong is common sense. They think we dont know right from wrong because we dont believe the fairy tale book

THEY GIVE US NO OTHER CHOICE BUT TO RULE. THEY THINK LIKE SHEEP ANYWAY.

I hear a lot of women say they want to know what it's like to be with another woman, but they want to keep it on the low. Then you have the confused women, who don't know what they want, and do not even want to admitt they are bi,yet they want to keep sleeping with women on the low(having their cake and eating it too without saying happy birthday). I have come across women like these sometimes, and I was wondering if any lesbians get tired of this?

Nowhere does it state that we came from monkeys. It states that at one point there was a primate before there were monkeys or humans that spread over an area, from there one group found that living in trees and being hairy was more fit, and through natural selction the ones most fit lived on and the ones that couldn't quite make it died out until over the years the ones that exhibited the most fit traits had the traits so bred into their lineage that they seemed a different species than the primate they once were. Now they are all the different monkeys we have.

Another group of the same primate didn't have as many land predators so they stayed on the ground. Due to climate they didn't need hair, so they shed it or never grew it, they needed to grab more and so learned how to walk on two legs. Eventually they became our humans after many many years. Do we know how life started? No. Will we ever? Probably not, we weren't there. Does this prove there is a God? Absolutely not.

Consider this, if hell exists, then God would be worse than the devil because, God controls all things and thus, by rank, no matter how you slice it, the devil is subject to God. So, God is the entity which allows people to be tortured for an eternity...and what could be worse?

If God wanted to spare one person eternal torture by hellfires, couldnt he just grab someone out of the devils clutches at any moment? Of course, if not, then he is merely a pagan form limited to some sphere and not the "one God".

If you say "we cannot know is ways", again this is a cop-out, a refusual to use your mind.

God can chose not to torture...right? I mean, he could just remove the human from existance...thats another option...is it not?

Hell is ridiculous. Absurd. A blunt tool for religious wackos to bash sheep over the head with. A marketing gimmick to sell books with. Something for wild eyed Imams to weild over the heads of their followers and make them duck into a bom-belt.

Why are some of the people on here so pompous as to think the Bible does not mean what it says? I get the feeling that people seem to think that it means what they say. You can put a positive spin on anything, would you rather be called a garbage man or a sanitations engineer? If you put a ribbon on a crap it’s still crap.
