A guy just said that in a recent survey 44% of Americans believe that Jesus will come back in the next 50 years or in their lifetime. Are you one of the believers?

Can anyone understand why would the pope apologize if he was quoting from a medieval book and he didnt invent events he was quoting history.. He happens to mention it at this time because he wanted to send a message that faith cannot be linked to violence which is true , faih and violence are not compatible , God is love not violence

Not that i'm an atheist, this is my take on it:
In the beginning , the heavens and earth were still one and all was chaos. The universe was like a big black egg, carrying Pan Gu inside itself. After 18 thousand years Pan Gu woke from a long sleep. He felt suffocated, so he took up a broadax and wielded it with all his might to crack open the egg. The light, clear part of it floated up and formed the heavens, the cold, turbid matter stayed below to form earth. Pan Gu stood in the middle, his head touching the sky, his feet planted on the earth. The heavens and the earth began to grow at a rate of ten feet per day, and Pan Gu grew along with them. After another 18 thousand years, the sky was higher, the earth thicker, and Pan Gu stood between them like a pillar 9 million li in height so that they would never join again.
When Pan Gu died, his breath became the wind and clouds, his voice the rolling thunder. One eye became the sun and on the moon.

I'm in a horrible dillema that's been going on for far too long. I'm ready to quit. I have this porn addiction where I can't seem to stop myself from looking at the evil crap. I've prayed for these women many times because of the affects they've had on me. All I want is to be free. I've asked God to help me many times but the main reason it's not working is because of me. He'll help me but I can't seem to help myself. I've tried to stay off the pc but when I'm outside girls where the tightest clothes and my eyes just lock on them.

Although I can try to come up with a few, I'm curious.

If we have proven things now that were only myth to some before, would they have been right all along.

The implications is that I'm trying to prove a point, possibly, but I am very curious on examples.

I was answering another question and this came to me. What is the standard of good? (I know what my opinion is, but I would like some thoughts from other people.)
If a person is good, then we should just live and let live?!? But WHO says what good is? I don't smoke, I don't drink, I don't do drugs. I am basically a nice person, I treat others as I would want to be treated, if I have a lot of items at the store and the person behind me has just one I let them go in front of me. I don't sleep around, my husband was the one I lost my virginity to on our wedding night. Am I good person?
What is good enough? Does the law determine what is good enough? Do your morals determine? And is there absolute truth?

That they'll be glad to see the atheists burning in hell for the "sin" of not accepting Jesus as their personal savior.
Then they end their post with "God bless".
A tad hypocritical in my opinion. What do you think?

I have seen many people who call themselves Christians fall away. But were they True converts in the first place? I know that I am a true born again Christian and there is no way that a person could lose their salvation once they are saved - if they are really saved. We shall know them by their "Fruit" What do you think ???

They insult us for having wonky teeth, crooked noses and wrinkes but isn't it better to just be natural than look like a bunch of clones with straight white teeth, the same nose, no wrinkles and a constant expression of surprise due to the amount of botox in their forehead?

Last night, I focused on a pencil for 30 minutes straight attempting to move it. At one point, I was able to mentally lift the pencil at least 10 inches in to the air above the table. Has anyone else ever heard of anything similar to this? I was able to recreate it once today with a paper clip.
