Many folks define the word "Christian" by the behavior of those who call themselves Christians but there seems to be a Huge difference between the two concepts. If the word means to be Christ Like then how come so many people say they are Christian but don't do what Christ says?

Coming out with a religious background was very hard for me, I can only imagine it being worse for the Amish. I want to help them in their struggle.

If reincarnation is true (I know, pushing it for some of you, you don't have to answer) and each soul is recycled until good enough for heaven, why does the population rise continually? I know it may change in the near future due to our views on a large family, but I don't see it slowing down.

All the former none white colonies have descended into war and famine since british departure.It might seem arrogant or racist , but I didnt make up the facts, theyre there in black and white.were sending food aid to most of them and the other half are plotting death of the west.
we taught these people how to speak, we gave them engineering and medical skills, yet most of them have reverted to living in mudhuts with a kalashnikov in one hand and a begging bowl in the other.

I waitress part time. One evening, my last table left. I found one person of that party meandering about the lobby. " Can I help you, m'am?" I asked. She asked the hostess and I if we had comment cards. We hadn't carried them in awhile and I asked if everything was okay. The lady informed me that she was upset that the other waitress had interrupted the conversation she was having her family to ask if she would pass the sugar caddy to refill. This lady said the other waitress had no business doing any type of cleaning let alone interrupting her conversation. She felt rushed to leave. I apologized and reassured her that I didn't mean for her to get that impression. The thing is, the manager had motioned us to tend to our closing duties such as cleaning our section 1 hr. prior. The lady went on to say that if she felt like like staying until midnight, we should hold off on cleaning up for the night until they left! Who's out of line here?

I prayed to my hammer for my cold to go away. That was five days ago and when I awoke this morning it was gone! I also prayed for other stuff, but since it hasn't happened then I can only assume that it's not the will of the hammer. Or maybe it's because I'm lacking faith, but for now I'm going to assume that the hammer knows best and wants me to wait in order for me to learn patience. The ways of the hammer are mysterious, indeed, and who am I to question them?

I usually take the stance that ignorance does not ever have the RIGHT to make an opinion. This is because there is nothing that ignorance CAN say on a subject that has value.
Everything is just rumor and hearsay, and repeated things that they, usually, heard others say (also usually out of ignorance).
I have heard the "if you are a Christian, why are you doing that?" thing in my life and it really makes no sense. Would they say to a physicist, "Why are you still using a Einsteinian equation there and not Fermi's equation?", not having studied physics?
Would it not be both intellectually and morally honest to keep quiet and not criticize what one is ignorant of?

Well over 100 million christians in this country believe the earth was created in 6 literal 24 hour days 6000 years ago. We are in big trouble, people. This is absolutely absurd in view of the fact we can use radiocarbon dating to measure the age of objects with good accuracy. There are literally MILLIONS of articles out there that deal with paleontology, astronomy, geology etc.. confirming the age of the earth, dinosaur fossils, etc..as WAY OVER 6000 years old.

So my question for you is:

Do you believe the Bible is the complete, inerrant word of god (earth is only 6000 years old, made in 6 days etc..) and radiocarbon dating is balderdash made up by atheists and fancy book learnin' researchers to debunk your religion? And if you do think the earth is 6000 years old, how are you able to live your life willfully ignoring volumes of factual research that conflict with your Bible?

let’s look at religious faith. What is faith? It is the firm belief in something for which no proof exists — simply because you want it to be true. As Mark Twain once said, “Faith is believing what you know ain’t so.”

Religious faith proves nothing, except the bullheadedness of the believer. If you have faith, you don’t need proof. If you have proof, you don’t need faith. Therefore, any attempt to use faith as a basis for proof is intrinsically doomed to failure.
