on more than one front that is. The pope has been knocked off his pedestile of "infallability" and its perception in recent polls...unlike in earlier decades..and the bible has ben discredited

christianity was named "the most extensively flawed and logicallyloopholed religion" which means it contraditcts itself on more than one account. And in many cases, it does not even make any sense in its assertions (this is just fact). I think these have been well documented in the past too but were withheld due to contraversy. Furthermore, there was a study in johns hopkins that stated that many of the "proclaimed" justice stories were really flawed justice and the god of the old testament was the "epitomy of double standards, hypocricy and injustice" rather than an example of pure justice based on current modern justice standards in our legal system...

So yea, I don't think christianity is doing very well in the "logical" department. Neither is islam, nor judaism.. justmere mirror images

i'm intrigued..... Why do a lot of black people pronounce the word ASK as ARKS? I notice this more and more, they've even started doing it on Eastenders now! Is there a particular reason?

So many people have had a blessed event, like a miracle, or the Holy Spirit come to them. Only those that have experienced this know within their hearts that this does exist, it is so special, that it is hard to convince others. It is their special secret between them and God. If you want, you can share it now. It is a shame that those that do not believe, cannot have this wonderful feeling of the Holy Spirit. When it comes to you, it is in many different ways. The Holy Spirit came to me one evening when I was asleep on the couch, it was a tall white spirit, I could see through it, no face, but white curly hair. I know it was an ark angel. I opened my eyes and saw it, and then closed my eyes and went back to sleep. It was telling me something or represented something. A friend of mine in church, said she had the same thing, about 5 yrs ago. Another time the lamp came on & went up two more brightness,just as I asked the Lord to come.It was completely dark in my room, then brite lite

Since there is no "Divine" being, thre can be no transgression against it. Stands to reason.
Pronunciation noun, verb, sinned, sin‧ning.

–noun 1. transgression of divine law: the sin of Adam

Can we really be certain that all black people are of African descent? Maybe their ancestors were from Australia or somewhere else. Is it appropriate to call Egyptian people from the US African American? What about calling Russians Asian Americans? It seems like black is a better term. Sure, they aren't black, but I'm not completely white and people call me white. I'm not offended.

Hell is fire, pain and torture.
But all human feelings are electrical responses that can only exist in a living brain. We dont feel pain because something damages the body, we feel pain when our brains create and electrical response. Unless we have a new brain made of flesh created after we die can not experience pain. A soul cant experience pain because pain is electricty within flesh. What do you think. Please no bible quotes, free thinking only.

Is buddhism not the most logical of all religions? It seems reaching enlightment...a sort of intellectual excercise which leads to a conservation of self and the enviroment as a good compromise and helpful to society and the individual.

I have heard it said, "No Bible verses...don't you have your own opinion?"

But consider if the question was about the Constitutionality of something (in the U.S) and one was prohibited from quoting from the U.S. Constitution (in order that one might "think for themselves")? Or if one was asked a question about geometry but prohibited from mentioning any principles of geometry? Kind of silly isn't it?

Christians believe that the word of God is the ultimate truth...why would they not reference it? After all God has said, "Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. (Josh 1:8)

There is a valid point to this question. If its true that God is all knowing, then how did he not know the following things:

-that the serpent was not only in the garden, but that it was talking/tempting Eve
-that Adam and Eve had eaten the fruit
-and what caused them to know that they were naked (if he created the garden and everything in it, he would have known the results of eating the fruit).

but cannot take care of a single one of them? The kids are all on welfare and have 10 different dads and all the mom cares about is getting her check and going out to the bar to find another man. Children's services doesn't do ****. Don't say it isn't my business because the kids grow up and are robbing and killing everyone cause their mama was a ho! I thought women had a maternal instinct that made them want to be a good parent so how is this lifestyle benefitting anyone but themselves?
