For those of you who will say it is something bad, why do you think that way?

We are on the subject of trinities and this like that at work so I ask: Does this mean he killed himself when Jesus was crucified? Would this not be a sin and send him to hell?

God knew if he allowed free will there would be guilt, shame, addictions, torture, fights, a lot of STDs, diseases, death. etc... He created Adam and Eve perfect I know, but why did God give them the choice to sin foreknowing they would? (This question is for Christian theologists only.)

Everyone says that Abercrombie is:
- over-priced
- preppy
- and bad quality
Is any of this true. Please explain, don't just put yes/no.
I'm not going to put my opinions. I want to see what YOU think.

All beit a very good man who spread the word of God greatly. God is great, I really believe in God... someone had to create out beautiful lives and everything in it.

The Bible did not arrive by fax from heaven…The Bible is the product of man. Not of God. The Bible did not fall magically from the clouds. Man created it as a historical record of tumultuous times, and it has evolved through countless translations, additions, and revisions. History has never had a definitive version of the book.

At the gathering of the Council of Niceau in 324 AD, many aspects of Christianity were debated and voted upon - the date of Easter, the role of the bishops, the administration of sacraments, and, of course, the divinity of Jesus . . . until that moment in history, Jesus was viewed by His followers as a mortal prophet . . . a great and powerful man, but a man nonetheless. A mortal.
