Sad and telling how even wealth and success do not lead to inner peace.
I pray that he will know Jesus as the Prince of Peace!

Is atheism above the blind machinations of natural selection? If so, how? If not, why not?

I have been called a traitor to my country. Is that how you view American Christian converts and why? If so why do you all preach freedom of religion. Or is being free to believe as I choose and being excepted two different things. I personally don't care who likes it or not, I would not choose my religion on what others thought, I do it on my own beliefs and I do it for God. I was just wondering why alot of people point fingers and other countries who may or may not be tolerant of other religions when so many Americans are the same way and just as violent, its just not televised as much. There are many many hate crimes against Muslims in America that don't make the 5 o'clock news. I am not judging by any means. If you hate me that is your choice. I just am tired of hearing how America is so great and so tolerant and you can be free, when its not like that. Yes I have met a lot of nice people who are tolerant to me, but I have met so many that are not. Whats your thoughts on this.

they go thru a rental company to handle all the rent and repairs and such. My friends also rent a house from them. Heres a short backstory. They had some medical issues and were unable to pay rent for a few months. The rental agency said it was fine, that they could pay 300 extra every month and it would be ok. So thats what they were doing, and then all of a sudden they got served with papers saying they were refusing to pay rent. They got all the paperwork saying that they had not missed any payments after the arrangements had been made. Went to court and RGI lied and said they hadn't paid rent in 6 months. The judge wouldn't let my friends talk or show the proof or anything, and got evicted. Do you think the church should fire this company for lying and cheating. The companies slogan is , "Happiness is a positive cashflow." Just seems to me very contradictory for the church to condone this behavior, or am I being irrational?

I'm a guy who just works, and comes back home and does hobbies. I go out when i have free time: i go to the library, i go to the bookstore, i go to the park, to supermarket. and i go out to meet one friend on the weekend. And that gives me happiness. But i see in tv or hear about people who go to clubs, drink there, dance there, and things happen there. From the sound of it, it sounds pretty crazy...and makes you vulnerable. Why do people want to be weak and unable to think well . and if they have friends already, why they need to gather in a club where it can be dangerous and the environment is noisy and harmful to health. I don't get it.

I've gone to numerous athesit web-sites and I recently heard a college professor (atheist) speaking about Christians who have murdered in the past...crusades etc. I think most of you know what I mean, it always seems to be a common theme to talk about Christians who have killed people etc...but I've always wondered how they (respectfully) explain numerous atheist who were also have committed
horrible murder such as chairman Moa (a very outspoken atheist) who murdered 200 million people, Joesph Stalin (who said Christianity is for the weak) murdered 70 million and the Vietnam guy (I think Poli was his name) who murdered 3-5 million for the crime as being Christian or other religion. All of these were just in the past 80 years.

It just seems a little hypocritical.....

what's the defense of this?

No stupid answers please...I would like to know what the counter argument against this is...if you don't know please don't answer.


thanks!

I am researching 'end timers' but i can't find any half decent sites about their prophecies and stuff. I already know about the global warming thing and the war against islam. I know about their ideas about the israel-arabia war.

I'd like to found out thier looks on the UN and some other stuff. Espicially something about the mark of the beast to buy and sell.


Any help will be truly appreciated

In your opinion, what do you believe to be the differences of the Catholic and the Protestant faith. No looking to others for answers, no searching, just your views. I would like to know your views on the subject.

Thank You :-)

Have you noticed that people who can't answer your question (because to do so would expose an obvious contradiction in their faith)......will give you a "thumbs down"?

Which religious group do you think does this the most often?

Please see my last question and tell me if you think it was a "good" question or a "bad" question...and why.

According to the Bible, Jesus is the word of god. Yet fundamentalists refer to a collection of silly ancient books as the word of god.

Don't you think it's blasphemous to elevate a bunch of rediculous writings to the level of your god by giving those writings your god's title?

Why does the Catholic Bible contain 73 books while the Protestant Bible has only 66? With both claiming to have the complete Word of God, which one should be believed and why?
