The babies in Egypt never had a chance to know god and make a decision before god slaughtered them. Okay, god knew that every single one of them would choose wrongly. But what about babies today who never get a chance to know Jesus before they die? Does god know whether each and every one would have gotten right with jesus? Of course he does. So doesn't that mean that some of these stillbirths and miscarriages are going to hell?

My belief is that a one world democratic order using a single currency would help establish world peace. Can this happen and should it?

Is it just gifts or do you actually like the quality time you recieve with your family? is it still the point that you celebrate Jesus' birthday with the ones you love?

Many xians say that the children that were slaughtered in Sodom, Egypt (10th plague), Jericho, etc... were going to be bad their entire lives so god was justified in killing them. Is there any real difference between god killing a baby and "allowing" a baby to die? God is omnipotent and omniscient. It doesn't take any effort for him to be aware of every single atom in the universe.
For example, assume I'm on a platform with 100 babies next to a shark tank. I pick up 20 babies and throw them in to make a point to the onlookers below that they'd better listen to me. Then I sit there and watch as 20 more babies crawl slowly over to the edge and tumble into the tank. And I weep a tear for the bad decisions they made. Does that make sense to anyone?

Why does God harden someoen's heart?


Romans 9:18
So then He has mercy on whomever He wills (chooses) and He hardens (makes stubborn and unyielding the heart of) whomever He wills.

I'm 18 years old and I like girls. All my friends know. But my parents don't. How do I tell my parents?

My dad is a methodist pastor and my mom is a strict christian.

They both believe that a homosexual is a straight person waiting for the right man or woman.

I have this friend who I think may be a lesbian(we have never discussed it) We have been hanging out lately and I am soooo attracted to this girl..I think we flirt with each other but I am not sure.We hang out, we talk everyday and night..At night we talk for hours.She come over and we find reasons to touch each other-like playing..Lastnight she came over and she laid in my bed...she touched my arm a couple of times and ran her fingers through my hair....I keep think to myself-i really wanna kiss her soooo bad but I am so afraid she may not be a lesbian. I have never dated a girl but I am going crazy over this girl....I think she flirts with me and I flirt but neither of one of us has taken it pass flirting...I sent her a message saying I was feeling her but she has ti figure it out.. left words out of the message because I didn't want to come out and say- I like you!!! Could I be wrong about her.She doesn't have a boyfriend-she hangs out with other lesbians.I am so scared to open up.

"Foetuses and newborn babies do not understand feelings of pain, according to research published today in the British Medical Journal."
"Infants do not fully recognise pain until they are about four months old, when they "learn" it from the outside world, said a Glasgow University psychologist, Stuart Derbyshire"

How preposterous that they should even entertain the thought that their studies are objective. So infants can't define/recognize pain and therefore don't suffer from pain?
Leaving the abortion issue to one side (please)... do YOU think because newborns don't know what the meaning of pain is that they don't experience it as pain?

not supposed to be a theological question, just more of a thought-provoking one. think back 9 months from your birthday, is there anything "special" that happened then? for example, maybe you were a christmas present, birthday present, or maybe your parents wanted to make their own fireworks on the 4th of July?

It seems that one can be african american and proud, one can be asian and proud, one can be hispanic and proud, but one absoulutely can not be white and proud because if they are, they are racist. There is no white history month, no white culture groups, because if there were it would be racism. Why? I am not racist, I believe everyone is equal, but if I say I'm proud to be white I'm viewed as a racist, why?

well, in the past 5 month I've seen posts like " I'm no longer a Christian" or " i was christian" and i decided to become xxx religion and left christianity" . ectc ect .

my questions for you guys are

have you ever really Experience God's work in your life? have you guys receive the Holy Spirit? did you really give yourself completely to God? had you ever took the Cross and followed Christ no matter what??

don't ever turn your back to Christ, cuZ the bible explains that if you do that you better kill yourself before you leave christ.

What's all this nonsense about spontaneous salvation? It's really starting to freak me out. Spontaneous combustion I can understand, but this other idea is just spooky, and how did they come up with it?
It also goes by the label Saved to Glory, or something like that. Also I believe some call it the Rupture.
Also, are these two groups really in cahoots?

I do not believe in purgatory, I'm not a Catholic. But when I read the passages Luke 16 19-31 it seems like that is exactly what they are talking about. I read this passage from the "American Bible" on line. Your opinions would be appreciated, thanks!
