Obviously, he is more interested in historical lessons and masking them as a question. Does anyone understand the point he is making? Is it that the history of Christianity is violent? I'm sure Jesus would have to agree with that. Can anyone enlighten me as to why this would somehow invalidate Christianity?

I've been exploring religions lately, this is just to satisfy my curiousity, and a conversation with a pastor got me thinking. Which do you think will be the future of religions? We'll keep battling who's right and the strongest will survive or we'll try and find what we have in common than differences and we'll try to make peace with what we have in common. Which do you hope for?

4And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
5And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.

I like this one =)

Everyone asks what the meaning of life is...I want to know what the meaning of YOUR life is? What is your destiny?? Why are you here?? Life means different things to different people so I don't think it is ever possible to have one answer for the entire world.

Not in our lifetime, but perhaps say 100 years into the future. What would happen if all of the manual labour jobs were taken by machines? Would there be no work avaliable for humans? And would the government be willing to pay out benifits to people if there was no work for them?

I've also seen an increase in attire I would consider very inappropriate and suggestive. What happened to respect for the Mass and Jesus present in the eucharist? What happened to modesty?

Quote, "...and of all Huguenots (Protestants) within reach of the soldiery and the mob. The massacre continued even after a royal order to stop, and it spread from Paris into other sections of France. Massacres continued into October (1572) reaching the provinces of Rouen, Lyons, Bourges, Orleans, and Bourdeaux. An estimated 3,000 were killed in Paris, 70,000 in all of France. News of the massacres was welcomed by the Pope and the King of Spain. Protestants, however, were horrified, and the killings rekindled the hatred between Protestants and Catholics..."

Jesus never spoke of following scripture, did he? He never wrote down his own teachings. Do you need a Bible to be Christian?

Is there anywhere in the Gospels written that Jesus Christ is God? Has he ever mentioned that he was God? I recall reading that he said he was the son of God. Unless I am mistaken I think I read somewhere that Jesus Christ was God. But other people are telling me that there is nowhere in the Bible that read that he was God. If there is please give me details where to find it thank you.

Capital "G" Biblical God, here...First, we need to define his characteristics. I think people agree he's supposed to be omniscient, omnipotent...that's about it. Certainly he's not fair or loving, so forget about those.

So, CAN a being that is all knowing and all powerful create this universe, exist before that creation, and not need to be created?

Atheists have done NO SEARCH for meaning, other than science, and Christians you have done NO SEARCH for meaning other than Jesus, How can you be so conclusive?

According to a synopsis of the book "Pagan Christianity," the following practices have been corrupted, have their origins in paganism, or are practiced in an unscriptural manner:
1. The Order of Worship
2. The Sermon
3. The Church Building
4. The Pastor
5. Sunday Morning Costumes
6. Ministers of Music
7. Tithes and Clergy Salaries
8. Baptism and the Lord’s Supper
9. Christian Education

This is now the THIRD time I have posted this requesting a book review. The author of this book is a practicing Christian and does not believe the Gospel is pagan, but that many of our practices are either pagan, or have been corrupted or are simply unscriptural in the way they are practiced.

IF you have READ the book, please comment on it; if not, please refrain. (I have not read the book either)

Madeleine Mccann has been missing from the algarve area in Portugal since May 3rd. Her parents have undergone tremendous scrutiny since and have been accused by many to be somehow involved in a big hoax or worse. Very few people have given specifics just BIG vague accusations. Certainly no one could possibly have planned on this much media attention or public interest. So whaddya all think they did exactly besides the obvious and ruthlessly repeated subject of parental negligence? Obviously this was poorest of judgement... so a hoax or worse? but who would set up something like this in such a way where they COULD BE accused of negligence? Seems they could not possibly have been involved in anything beyond what they have publicly discussed!

How about some petitions for the severest of penalties against convicted pedophiles? NOW! We need an international police that deals specifically with them ..not petitions against loving parents!!

Listening to recent records by Kirk Franklin and Deitrick Haddon, I have noticed that they have used samples from secular songs. To me these samples remind you of the original songs and therefore take away any spiritual element of the new songs. I wonder whether some gospel artists are becoming to get more concerned with sales as opposed to spreading the Good News.

If God is so perfect, won't all his actions be perfect. If a perfect scientist, makes anything, from his knowledge of science, there should be no room for impections. So God made satan, God KNOWS all...he must knew satan would be rebel? so why make im? IS God just the FLOW OF reality? and we're giving this flow a personality?


The bible says, he loves all his childrens...so i guess he don't see you as ugly, ignorant, gay or fat? he see's you all the same?

Maybe god got tired of making beautiful people, cause the beautiful people kept sinning and doing things that he didn't favor. Maybe he got tired of making straight people, because straight people kept sinning and doing things that he didn't like. So he threw a curve ball!
