Mark 10:17-18 and Luke 18:18-19

These verses are highlighted because they are most indicative of Jesus' position and real nature. The verse in Mark reads:

"As he [Jesus] was setting out on a journey, a man ran up and knelt before him, and asked him, 'Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?' Jesus said to him, 'Why do you call me good? No one is good but God alone." If you analyze this verse in truth you will see that Jesus, quite simply, is not God. If he was, why then would he say "No one is good but God alone"? Jesus did not want to be called "good" because he was not God. That title, as Jesus admits, belongs to none but God.

My day is going wonderfully. It is Thursday and to me that means it is the day that I spend my morning at Church alone with our Lord in the Sacrament for an hour. Then prayers and Mass where I receive Him in the Eucharist. That was indeed my highlight. I have forgotten the small little trials and annoyances.
Peace Be With You,
Debra

We just had the elevator at the hotel where I work renovated, and the numbers are now on the side instead of overhead. Why on earth do our guests stare up at the ceiling still?

If you took a human baby from birth and placed it with only dogs (and bitches) without any form of human intervention to be raised until the baby was 20 years old, and assuming that the baby survived, would that human believe in God or would it have to be trained about the theory of God in order to believe?

Is it true women of the LDS and even some men wear special underwear?

Are they thongs?

While normally white, the garment is currently made in the color green for regulation military use. Today, they may be purchased at a church-subsidized cost at the church's website, in temples, or at special distribution centers in Utah. To purchase them, one must show the clerk a current temple recommend.

I'm a Christian, but i respect other religions, i respect other people, i respect other cultures. I admire the diverse cultures of the world and the people who inhabit the earth, yet why am I, as a Christian, so heavily criticized everywhere i go? I'm called an idiot, ignorant, narrow-minded, and dilusional for beleiving in a creator? Why is that idea so crazy? Besides, if Christianity were so insignificant, as many claim, why do they care so much about it?

that causes most of them to NOT stone people, and NOT kill their children for being disobediant, and NOT keep slaves according to Jesus' teaching? There is some spark of tolerance and fairness that causes them to disobey the Bible--the word of God! Admirable, brave souls...

I have heard that Christians and Muslims both worship the God of Abraham. Do Muslims observe any of the ancient Hebrew traditions, like the Ten Commandments?

What percentage of our community is bi?

These are my assumptions - please add your input.

With men there are very few bi's. Guys are usually just gay or straight and bi men are maybe about 25% of us - if that.

With women I think they have a higher population of bi's than men. I would say may 40% of women ar bi. I think this may be in part because a woman can just liet there and have straight sex. A gay man actually must get an erection and climax to do the deed.

Am I wrong? Please add your own thoughts!

Thank you!

WHY????

They seem the same to me!

What is someone counter the story of the guy finding a golden bible by his house with "No idiot god made the world in seven days!" are "Then he put two of every animal on a boat"

All these religions have stories that would seem "wierd" so how can one knock the other.

Also with them promoting there relgion they swear like other relgions don't!

PS: Im not mormon im agonostic but I don't get how people be just hypocrites when they are all pracitally the same.

Does Islam require that the whole world needs to be converted?? Are Muslims tolerant of other peoples beliefs?? How about Freedom of religion?? Are Muslims anti semetic or just anti state of Israel?? How do the beliefs of the radicals and mainstream Islam differ??

Agnostic here asking question, not wanting to convert anyone to a religion,

This answer was just given to a previous question of mine:

Evolution is not a science. Science has equal views on evolution and creationism. Neither has been proven and the science community supports neither.
Read a book.

So my question is,
1. What is the scientific view on creationism?
2. Is creationism a scientific theory that has the ability to be falsified?
3. What scientific facts support the creationism view?
4. Since the creationism view is that of a God as creator, what empirical evidence exists that would lead me to see God's existence?
5. What book should I read?

Question for evolutionists specifically . . .
6. Is this just putting to much attention to the non-evolutionist, or is this list of questions valid to show the failure of saying that science has an equal view of creationism as it does evolution?

I consider myself a well-read, open-minded, intelligent individual, but have always had one foot in both the creationism pool and one in the evolution pool. How can one discount the other? The spiritual side of my believes the creationism, the scientific side, the evolutionism. Yet, how can one exist without the other? Does anyone else feel this way?
