If you have not, please, why will you not accept atheism into your brain? There is no other path to salvation from the wicked lies of religion. Let us only speak of what is falsifiable, in the sense of Popper.

concerning the rapture, mark of the beast 666, tribulation of 7 years etc. I am a christian. No lets say you see millions of christians disapear fromt his earth in a twinkling of an eye and the dead in christ rise from thier graves and you will see no more graves from the people that are christian or who were christian, and you also see a world dictator forcing you to take his mark 666, say it did happen(for your sake) would you then believe the truth instead of listing to a pack of lies from other people? Will you think that alliens have kidnapped us? Do not belive it, that means Jesus has come to take his own home with him to Heaven then returns at the battle Armegeddon when all nations surround Jeruselum. Once the christians have gone(not all christians) would you believe then and surrender to Jesus while you still have time during the tribulation. Because the bible makes it clear that many will be saved, infact mulitudes, praise God for that. And when you see a world dictator force

I could not find in Genesis 2. Could some one correct me.
Or Adam told her.

In Genesis 2:2-3 Eve mentioned that "We" were told.

Every time I turn on PBS, they're talking about some non-Christian cult, some "ancient" people that supposedly lived "thousands" of years ago, some fossils that supposedly came from animals that lived "millions" of years ago, or some scientists' wild guesses about a Godless universe. On top of all that, PBS is airing a "History of Disbelief", a documentary about atheism, in July.

Doesn't this disgust you? As if there isn't enough Satanic influence coming into our homes from FOX, NBC, ABC and CBS!

All this reminds me of II Timothy 3:1-5:

"But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God—having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them."

I've seen so much hatred amongst the divisions here and it's really fruitless. If you are a person "of the cloth", no matter what your faith, judging others and making assumptions about people you really don't know is not a loving thing to do? So, why are you doing it? In my mind, it makes you "blind" to the truth we are all connected and your judgments do nothing but detract from your intentions. So, if the one leading is "blind", then your followers will be "blind" to? Agree?

I asked my date for the recipe - he says "it's a trade secret".
When later on, he asked me about how I made something, being the naive, nice person I gave him the recipe. I feel Extremely resentful of him now. How dare he not share the recipe with me (we weren't strangers. he was in love), and expected me to share mine? Unfair. I have broken up with this guy already, for many other reasons. Anyway, would it have affected you the way it did me? I should have gone for tit-for-tat, to turn on tables on him, so he realizes.

I hate it when people act all secretive about their recipes.

If you had a way to KNOW, with absolutely certainty and evidence, somehow--let's just use a stretch of imagination for the sake of scenario here--if your belief was true or false (and I mean in terms of correctness, not conviction)...

Would you take it?

Clue:

You can use your heart to answer this, or you can research the original meanings of Jesus' words.

First of all, let it be known that I'm not generalizing anyone here. I'm just curious as to those ones who believe their scripture was literally written by or totally inspired by God, thereby making it God's word.

Mainly, this is directed toward Christians, because I have more knowledge of the Holy Bible than I do the Qur'an, or any other books. Though those from other religions are welcome to comment, as long as they elaborate. Be sure to mention which one you adhere to, though.

Along with your answer, I'd be curious to know WHY you think it is true, and why you might think it's the 'one true path'.

On an even more curious level, for those of the Christian faiths, how do you go about rationalizing such atrocities as God-condoned rape, slavery, sexism, cannibalism, murder, genocide, infanticide, the condemning of homosexuality, and animal and human sacrifice in the Bible, if you believe it is the true word of God?

By your way of thinking everything would be a hodge-podge of animal parts.

Why don’t we see horses born with tusks or a trunk?

Or people waking up one morning with wings or fish scales?

1. God LOVES you and offers a wonderful PLAN for your life.

"God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life" John 3:16.

Why is it that people are not experiencing the abundant life?

2. Man is SINFUL and SEPARATED from God. Therefore, he cannot know and experience God's love and plan for his life.

Man Is Sinful
"All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God" Romans 3:23.

3. Jesus Christ is God's ONLY provision for man's sin. Through Him you can know and experience God's love and plan for your life.

"God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us" Romans 5:8.

4. We must individually RECEIVE Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord; then we can know and experience God's love and plan for our lives.

"As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name" John 1:12

But so hard to try and be understanding?

Example: someone posts a question with no obvious demeaning and people feel it demeans others, when it doesnt. Have you ever wondered they might be doing it with good intentions and not really ANY demeaning?
