If repentance requires that you cease the sin, doesn't it require you to cease living in a divorced state and return to your earlier married state of being? Shouldn't you try to convince your ex-spouse to repent and remarry you, too?

It is true that the theory of the existence of god is possible as it can neither be proved or disproved. But at the same time there is no evidence to support it, which makes it highly unlikely.

In fact anyone could come up with an idea that is impossible to disprove but lacked evidence.

Here’s an example:

The universe was created by an evil demon purely for his own sadistic pleasure, and the more good people do in this world the more he makes them suffer in the next. The demon wrote the bible to trick people into doing good deeds in order to make them suffer more.

Now that idea is just as likely to be true as Christianity all though I doubt many people would want to believe it. Of cause you could come up with billions of different explanations for existence if you didn’t have to worry about evidence. This means the odds of Christianity being right are billions to one.

The rules of the animal kingdom are often ruthless and immoral, with survival of the fittest being the basic grounds for life in the animal kingdom.
No matter what religion you belong to is it possible that we have all be duped by Satan or whatever his equivalent may be?
We are taught to be kind to each other not to steal and so on. But in the animal world it is take what you can and kill what you can. The old & young are both victims to this rule.
What if god’s and Satan’s roles (or whatever your religious equivalent) are opposite to common believe and the main goal in life is to survive at all or any cost. So god would in fact be Satan and Satan would be god?
At the end of the day animals have been around longer that humans and will probably out live us as a result of there way of life. Life as we know it is proof that our current system doesn’t work as there is still pain an suffering. Where if it was dog eat dog the poor & weak would simply be fuel to powerful.

Could relationship with God throughout history be understood using a developmental model? For example, did God relate to Israel in the Old Testament as a parent would relate to a young child...right and wrong...black and white. And then in New Testament times, did Jesus come to help us learn how to know right and wrong with an emphasis on understanding the meaning behind the law. If so, might it be that we are now adolescents who are given some freedom to explore gray areas, but still expected to maintain curfew and keep communication open? What do you think?

Jesus = God right?
God = omnipetant + was there at beginning of time right?

can this story be taken as a literal truth? i dont think so. its known as midrash in judaism to show how sacred human life is and that killing in God's name means denegrating God.
By the way i am a christian, and why dont we use jewish midraism to interpret the bible, instead of taking it literally?

At first I thought it was George W. Bush but he is not smart enough. He is also getting away with many crimes against the Constitution and no one is even trying to impeach him and Cheney. I now think it could be Tony Blair. What do you think.

Has any others felt this way ?Naturually drawn? also...What books can I purchase to learn the ways?Maybe some websites that go in depth ?Please only serious answers only .
