I've seen people attack christians for voting "no" on homosexual marriage and abortion and other things moral related time after time, angry that christians are simply voting their beliefs just like the people who don't agree. Alot will say christians are trying to control people lives who they sleep with ect.

But why is it so wrong for a Christian to vote for what they believe and not others?

Would you ever consider putting you're conscious on the backburner while voting for things?

Why do you think christians should?

I dont want any hate rants on how christians are stupid blah blah. I just want geniune answers from genuine people?

Do you think christians, or anyone else for that matter should(for the sake of their dignity) vote against their beliefs and for someone elses belief that they dont believe in?

People who go the evolution route seem to assume that we do nto believe that dinosaurs existed.

I believe they exsisted..I believe there are still some around.

The Bible mentions dinosaurs.

But I a curious, is it thought that we do not know that dinos were real?

Here's the statement

"They were brainwashed early on into not to think critically about things they don't understand....ask no question, pray away to the great mythical sky marshal and if things don't work out it's still your fault for not praying enough"

Basically it's a collection of bones, or "fossil record" whatever. I mean, all you do is theorize it with bones. If a T-Rex femur or a Peking Man skull had something like ‘I AM REAL’ carved into it, maybe then I’d be more likely to believe in evolution.

comments?

These are facts

Fossils - the order can be determined by stratification alone (no radiological dating) it is unarguable and life started simple and got more complex.
* Anatomical similarities between species.
* Chemical similarities between species.
* Mitochondrial DNA regressive studies. - This comes only from your mother and the only changes to it are through mutations. These mutations occur at a known rate, and converge world wide 150,000 years ago give or take. If Eve (6000 years ago) was the only female, it would be almost identical world wide. It is not. The flood gives a second bottleneck that matches the facts even less well.
* Geographic distribution of related species. Meaning related species are usually near each other.
* Wisdom Teeth - there isn't room on your jaw for them anymore.
* Your little toe - totally useless. Nice intelligent design here.
* Your appendix - totally useless now but it does digest cellulose in other species.

We are in human bodies, limited by our senses and ability to comprehend. Think of a cat trying to do algebra- it is beyond their physical capability. So what makes any human think they could possible comprehend the Universe, God, or whatever you want to call it? While we are in these bodies they limit us a lot.

skeptics feel the way they do because they have earnestly approached god and the possibilities of his existence.

christians love to portray them all as sinfully choosing, in hateful ignorance, to attack the concept of god and objective morality.
Many mistakenly say that skeptics only want to defeat religion so that they can do the things that religion prohibits.

It makes no sense how christians approach the idea of why these people are in dissent.

people attack the bible and its reasoning because they love humans and they believe in morality.

I know christians here think that you have effective, competent apologetics to all skeptic questions, but the truth is, at best, many things are VERY contentious. the fact that so many things in the bible need apologetical answers is also an issue.

When I was five I got a guinea pig. I used to feed him lettuce and carrots. I used to play with him on the couch. We had alot of fun together. I liked to take him outside on the yard. He had a cage that was in the living room. Every day I played with him. Generally, we had a good time.
