or smokers blaming the cigarette co's? movies corrupting our kids?

i know i sound terrible with my fat people comment, but there's truth here. so many things we piss and moan about as a culture, we should step up and take care of as individuals and parents. this is so ridiculous. take some responsibility for your actions!

mcdonald's doesn't obligate anyone to buy. stop going there. you know it's not good food!!!

philip morris didn't light the lighters they're sleazy as hell, yes. but so's disney (you should read some of the disney cases)...

and don't let your kids watch violent movies/TV. i know it's difficult to do that, but so's PARENTING!!!! deal with it!

opinions?

Then I heard about instant salvation. Now I don't understand the Parable of the Sower like I thought I did. Why did Jesus tell that parable if instant salvation happens?

It's so obvious that it's alcohol, which you cannot drink in public anyway.


DISCLAIMER TO LIBERALS
I know not ALL bums drink alcohol. I don't mean to generalize. In fact, I'm sure you probably know a bum who does not drink. I'm talking about the ones that do.

And I know that you believe it. But belief in something does not make it the truth. I know you think it was written or inspired by god, but thats NOT the truth. It was written by man who was inspired by his own spiritual belief, and thats ok. Can you not atleast admit that just because YOU belive it, does NOT nessessarily make it the truth. Saying your God is the only true god, will only lead to more bloodshed. No one wants that.

christmas is actually derived from a pagan holliday, the tree is a pagan symbol of renewal of life. the eating of ham, the holly, the mistletoe, the giving of presents, are alll pagan traditions."
the only thing christian about christmas is that you pretend christ was born on this day, which every biblical scholar knows christ wasnt actually born on december 25th.


Yule - winter solstice celebration
Sol Invictus - celebration of 2 deities, Sol Invictus (unconquered sun) and Mithras (sun of righteousness). December 25th was considered the date of the winter solstice, the date that the sun "proved" itself to be unconquered.

how many of u christians knew anything about this? or did u just go through your whole lives claiming this celebration as your own cause failed to research anything about it?

I learned that the Bible describes baptism as a public testimony of faith and identification with Jesus (Acts 2:38; Romans 6:3-4).

Recently talking with a Catholic, he mentioned that according to Catholicism, baptism washes away original sin.
My question is: can anyone show me where in the Bible this is mentioned?
