Have you ever meet someone and get that feeling that they are being deceptive, or have you seen something on the news and know what was going to happen next?

Maybe you allowed evil to enter into the world to teach us lessons about life, but that doesn't really work either because you are omnipotent and could have taught man every lesson he ever needed to know a thousand different ways. You could even have made souls born with this knowledge. Maybe you allowed evil to dominate the world to show us the love of salvation in the afterlife, but then that's sort of creating a problem to solve it, don't you think? Why not just show us love in the afterlife in the first place? Why bother with this material world business anyway since heaven and spirituality have been the real deal all along?

If they say 'Oh, god!', aren't they breaking the Second Commandment?

Or do they just lay on top of each other, move a little bit and say: 'Thank you, that was splendid. I hope you conceive soon and bring glory unto the lord'?

I don't understand many of the firm christian beleifs like, "animals don't ahve souls", but they beleive that god created the animals, so how could they not believe that they have souls? Is there anyone out there who puzzles over these same questions and finds themselves "debating" about them?

Hello my fellow christians. I have decided to build a missionary and help the third world countries as well as attempt my conversion among unbeilvers. And spread the GOOD WORD! I believe with my heart and soul that The son of God (LORD CHRIST) has designated this as my mission.

Agnostic here, not trying to convert anyone.

Hypothetical, does the First Amendment in America guarentte my right to freedom of religious speech, could I print out pamphlets that say "If you don't believe in Sean as God then you burn in a firery pit off marinara sauce after you die" and go and hang them out on street corners and knock on doors to hand them out?

More than likely, do you think intelligent people would close the door on me?

Would anyone say to me "what the heck are you doing man, what empirical evidence do you have that Sean is God?"

If the number of Sean is God followers was 10 million, would that make a difference? How about 1 billion.

There are 1 billion plus people who believe someone named Jesus is God. Some of these followers knock on doors and hand out pamphets. Some of us close the door. Do any of us stop and ask what empirical evidence do you have that Jesus is God?

In John 4:1 where we are told to test a religion before we join.
How did you investigate the watchtower society before you joined it?
Did you read books both for and against the society to help judge it accurately?
Had you read the Bible in its entirety?
If the context of a verse is ignored, people can prove anything they wish from it. To prevent this problem, did you read the Bible passages found in the Watchtower plublications in context to make sure they were applied accuratly?
Were you acquanted with the teaching of any other church groups before you began to study with the witnesses?
What was the process that you used to test the watchtower organization before you joined?
Have you ever checked the quotations the Society uses from other sources to see wether or not they are taken out of context?
And do you think i'm right to use this process to check out the organisation?
Do you think i make an important point about 1 John 4:1?

If one must be tempted to sin, and Adam and Eve had to have Satan to sin, then who tempted Satan? If there was no sin in heaven, and yet an angel chose to become evil, what will prevent the same thing from happening to us when we get there? If sin can just "pop up" when and where there is none, what are we to do if we make the wrong choices in heaven, or perhaps succomb to some overwhelming sense of lofty heavenly pride?

are forcing their culture on British people?

And why take offence if we are speaking in our own language? Odds are that whatever we're talking about doesn't concern you so you shouldn't be evaesdroping anyway!

Plus how many people who emmigrate from Britain actually try and integrate themselves in that country's culture and not stick together with their own anyway?? Most British people just assume everyone else will speak English

Especially if they are so pretty...do they ever think about that? It can also be a question for any lady from any country. But as for japanese, many people know japanese ladies from the large amount of Japanese media that is shown around the world whether something related to anime, jpop, and etc. So does a regular japanese girl who is beautiful like this who comes to the usa, does she ever feel like a super star??? I'm an ugly latino guy, i know latinos are kind of popular somewhere, but the populars ones, the loved ones,,, are handsome .. not a bunch of crap lik me.. So, anyways.. comments?

If you were concerned with allowing man freewill in the garden, why couldn't you have simply allowed Adam and Eve to exist without knowing evil, and what they didn't know, they wouldn't have chosen, would they? So freewill was never even an issue. You don't need the presence of evil to have freewill.

This brings up another question. How could Satan fall from grace in a sinless environment?
