ok, we all know that there are many denominations of new testament churches. and i know that many of these different denomination have churches within them that try to teach the bible as best they can. as long as a church teaches salvation through jesus then it has hit the minimum requirements. but what i want to know is does a church need the hand of fellowship from a true church in order to be a true church. and by true church i mean the bride of christ, the church that jesus set up. without the consent of jesus' church, is it ok for someone to just start a church simply because they dont agree with what another church teaches?
basicly does the bride of christ consist of any new testament church or is it only the church that he set up and those that have been started with his original church's permission?

The Nephilim were marrying the daughters of men and having children by them. I know that the Nephilim were giants, they are also referenced in Numbers and 1samuel, but does anybody have any ideas about who these people were? I've heard theories that the Nephilim were the 1/3 of the angels that fell, but I'm not buying the idea that they were reproducing. Anyways, what do you guys and gals think?

I ask this question in response to people who think knowing and agreeing with there religions metaphysical ideas is more important than focusing on loving there neighbor as themselves. For many it is about the fear of hell, or being in judgment of others than it is about true caring itself. I believe God couldn’t give two hoots about our metaphysical ideas of him/her/it compared to how we treat should treat creation, from our spiritual hearts.

How many innocent children is it okay to kill before God gets mad?

Would it be better to do away with religion like at http://flushaholybook.com and not allow religious justifications for war?

So, I was just sitting here at the desk, eating my multi-flavored Jelli-Beans, contemplating life when I decided to ask this after seeing so many examples of it. Do you believe most Christians use the lord (or bible) as their weapon? Do you disagree? Elaborate...

I find that there are invisible forces around us, and I wonder where they really come from, or what manipulates it all.
do you believe in Karma?
I had experiences, even little ones: I used to spit gum on the ground all the time until one day I was driving on the highway and my flip-flop got stuck on the gas pedal. I couldn't get it off. Luckily, I just took my foot out and then pressed the break. Since then, I never spit my gum out.
