Atheists and others,
why do you viscously and cynically assert that Christians are brain washed and simple minded. without questioning the possibilities that you yourself have been brain washed by the theories you commonly hold so dear.

I mean a less than 200 year old theory that men "claim” to have valid evidence that we came from single celled organism blobs and primates doesn’t sound too solid. I know God can not be fully understood or comprehended, but if he could, he wouldn't be God.
The whole idea of Evolution just sounds too much like science fiction

I'm probably going to get murdered for this, but I just want to know what the deal is...where the idea came about, what the "history" of it is, etc. Why would someone believe in that instead of something else? Seriously curious. I'm not going to convert to "FSMism" b/c I'm totally happy as a Christian, I just want to know what the big deal is. Thanks!

Not making fun, just trying to find out information.

The different denominations formed because of difference in opinion correct? Like someone didn't agree with one part of what their previous church said, so they made their own church where that one part was ok

But that stuff doesn't matter right, because the Bible is the ultimate source correct?

So then what if this person's church values contradict the Bible's? Does this then make the church void because it teaches something as tolerable when it should be sin? Then this would make all the followers of that denomination go to hell right?

I know it's a lot of questions at once, but thanks for your patience and answering :)

I mean, the CURRENT bible is the King James II bible.
Pretty presumtious to do don't you think, the bible doesn't NEED to change with times because its apparently THE WORD OF GOD, i.e FINAL.

So some Human stands up and says 'What GOD MEANT TO SAY WAS...'

"Christianity has a built-in defense system: Anything that questions a belief, no matter how logical the argument is, is the work of Satan by the very fact that it makes you question a belief. It's a very interesting defense mechanism, and the only way to get by it is to take massive amounts of mushrooms, sit in a field and just go, 'Show me.'

An atheist is a person that don't really believe that god exists, nor any supreme being up there.

Again, a person that doesn't believe that god exists.
Not a person that doesn't want to believe.
Not a person that refusing to believe.
A person that his Mind and Logic led him there is no Gods.

My question is, Why would god -The one that promises with Heaven and Hell- create atheists?

Is it Right to put a blind man in a reading test and punish him because he couldn't read?!

We're talking about Enternal punishment!!
is this right?!

why do we christians have to pick verses from the old testament and paul? dident jesus say that 'i am the way truth and life'? jesus also said that he came to give us a new law based on love and grace, thus abolishing the laws of the O/T.

dont you think its time we all christians start listening to our lord instead of picking verses from other sources from the bible? As a christian to me freedom and emuncipation of human life comes only through my lord jesus and no one else.
do you agree?

If we are truly Christian, and one of the ten commandments is clearly "Thou shall not kill". Then why does my church support this massacre?
Please, no personal attacks. This is a serious question.

I pray that all the Christians throughout the world would get back to the Bible and ONLY the Bible.
I pray that all the Christians would give up all things that they can not find either by commandment or by example in the word of God.
I pray that all the Christians would not justify what they do by any means other than "It is written...".
I pray that all the Christians get back to the love of Jesus and put away the social clubs and church entertainment.
I pray that all the Christians would tear down all the Christian organizations they can not find in the scriptures.
I pray that all the Christian would put away the man-made ordinances or opinions that separate them.
I pray that all the Christians preach the word of God to all creation. (Mark 16:15-16, Matthew 28:19-20.)

"You are anointed to be prophets that you may make known Him who has loved and saved you, and may go about the world evidently inspired to show forth His praise, and make His name glorious. That anointing calls and fits you to be priests, mediators between God and man, bringing God to men, and by pleading and persuasion, and the presentation of the truth, drawing men to God. That unction calls and fits you to be kings, exercising authority over the little monarchy of your own natures, and over the men round you, who will bow in submission whenever they come in contact with a man all evidently aflame with the love of Jesus Christ, and filled with His Spirit. The world is hard and rude; the world is blind and stupid; the world often fails to know its best friends and its truest benefactors; but there is no crust of stupidity so crass and dense but that through it there will pass the penetrating shafts of light that ray from the face of a man who walks in fellowship with Jesus."
