your deal?

I can quote wikipedia and write for a long time about why there is illogic when people have faith in the love of God.

You just have to believe me.

Please?

Has this love, that you see in the darkness, turned your world upside down?

Does love give you supernatural powers, to feel different?

Other Religions, Faiths and Spiritualities believe in "God" or the Supreme Divine One and Christian Expansionism intercedes, but Judaism is left to not accept Jesus. (And we even protect them) Why?

What if the spirit of God, or an angel, came to you and asked you face-to-face to abduct your neighbor's 1 year old child because if he stays in the house he is in, circumstances unforseen by anyone but God will cause this child to grow up to become a terrible conquerer and a slaughterer of millions of innocents.

But if you do as God commands; abduct the child and move away from the area, and proceed to teach the child all about the bible, then the child will instead grow up to be a charismatic preacher who will convert many to the Church.

Would you do it? This scenario assumes that you're not just getting an impression in your heart... but actually see a bright light and a booming voice. Oh, and the home the child belongs to is not abusive or neglectful whatsoever... they're just not religious at all.

If the answer is no, because you feel that it would be Satan in disguise... then how do you know? How did Mary know, or the apostle Paul? What makes you any more discerning?

Or is Chuck Norris God?

The dude uses live rattlesnakes as condoms. He uses a night-light not because he is scared of the dark, ut because the dark is scared of him. There is no such thing as extintion - just a bunch of animals that Chuck Norris allows to continue living.

Ten years ago on April 15th, Chuck Norris sent the IRS a blank 1040 form. Attached to it was a picture of himself, crouched behind a tree and ready to attack. He has never had to pay taxes since then.

As a small boy, Chuck Norris wandered into a sorority house at a college near his home. He proceeded to impregnate the entire sorority. Those children grew up to become the 1972 Miami Dolphins -- the only unbeaten and untied team in NFL history.

Chuck Norris sold his soul to the devil in exchange for his rugged good looks and martial-arts ability. Soon after, Chuck Norris roundhouse-kicked the devil and took back his soul.

Recently my friend and I decided to do a documentary on race for our humanites class. We went into stores and I noticed what my black friends called "guilty because I'm black syndrome" my black friends were followed around more than I was. They were asked more questions more than I was. Questions like "did you pay for that" "are you going to pay" People were even rude to them when they were being very polite. When they said good morning to a asian person the asian person did not say anything. When I a caucasian said good morning to the same asian person they responded. I never understood this till now but alot of races look down on black people which is extremely wrong since blacks have done alot for the. If it wasnt for blacks marching, protesting, and dying for their rights, asians, arabs, and hispanics would never have been able to come to this country and have the success that they have. And even through it all people still look down on black people. Why?

1. The very first page of the Old Testament opens right up with contradictory descriptions of the creation (Genesis 1 vs. Genesis 2). For example, if the Institute for Creation Research sought relevant information from Genesis, would they determine that plants were created, then animals, then humans (Genesis 1), or humans, then plants then animals (Genesis 2)?

3. Apostles James and Paul disagreed about a key doctrine: whether "salvation" is by faith alone, or faith and works combined. Compare the direct contradictions (when analyzed for parallel vocabulary and parallel grammatical structure in the original language) in wording between Romans 3:28 and James 2:24.

Additional scriptures support faith alone (Romans 3:27-28 & 4:6; II Timothy 1:9; Ephesians 2:8-9; Galatians 2:16; Titus 3:5), while others specify the need for works / good deeds (Matt 16:27, Revelations 2:26 & 20:12; 2 Timothy 4:14; Philippians 2:12; James 2:24-26).

please read what i have to say about what i, being an atheist myself, first have to say...im sorry if any of you are offended by this that is NOT what i am trying to do i would just would like some answers as to why you beleive atheists are bad if you dont then great! you can read the answers i get

i read these questions that are completely ridiculous about atheists. first off, real athiests dont believe/worship the devil, those people are completely different.

just because we dont beleive in god or have a book doesnt mean we are without morals, morals didnt come from a book or religion, it came from pretty much common sense, (EX: you respect me i respect you)

people complain about atheists aren't happy and will turn out to be thiefs,cheaters and killers, well yes some will but they arent the only ones anyone can be all those things not just one group

if youd like more answers im or email me questions youd like me to answer and other atheists can add on to what i said too

I speak 5 languages and I really LOVE to listen to girls speaking French, I really really like them, they sound so sexy to me.

I also like English from The US, Canada, Australia and Britain.

As a guy, I think Italian sounds cool when guys speak it.

In the book of Joshua, Israel conquers many lands as promised by God, but they also turn away from God in the book of Judges, they repent several times and God send heroes to save them, they also turn away from God several times before repenting.

This what god said about homosexuality:

1 Corinthians 6:8-10 (King James Version)

8Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that your brethren.

9Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

10Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.


What do you think about that?

Will you be willing to walk away from this world system and kneel humbly before him in prayer?
