Not really, there is nothing I want to do more then rid the streets of all the sick freaks who do do that! My question is, do you think people even read the details of a question before answering, or do they just jump to conclusions about what the question is really about? WHAT THE PROBLEM IS?

There have been people that has turned from this wickedness, so why can't they all? God intended for a man to be with a woman, otherwise he would have made two men or two women. There are doctors to help with this sickness. Stop using the God made me like this excuse. The Bible clearly states homosexuality is wrong. It is perversion. Just ask for forgiveness.

This is the perfect place for this question.

I am not a christian but my hobby is studying religions. I've talked to many a christian who doesn't know the history of their religion.

If I mentioned Gnostics or Mithra most christians eyes glaze over and act like I am making things up. Mention The Council of Nicea and you would think I was speaking a different language.

I've met many a christian who can quote passages of the bible but ask them in depth questions and forget it.

Although not completely accepted, gay marriage is much more widely accepted in America than polygamy. A few states have made gay marriage legal, but as far as i know polygamy is still completely outlawed.

i am not gay, nor would i want to be part of a polygamous marriage. i just think that if you're going to accept one, you should accept the other, especially in a country like America.

A common argument i hear for gay rights is "they'd do it anyways." well, the same thing is true for polygamy. men will cheat on their wives (it's legal). and polygamy is not unheard of in Utah, even when the state only recognizes the first wife.

america has many christians who favor a moral society. the bible condemns homosexuality, but does it condemn polygamy? if you read the bible, you'll see that it was accepted. several prophets (moses, abraham...) had many wives. king soloman is reported to have had hundreds.

my theory is that it's a subconscious reaction to population increase. do you think so (why or why not)?

It's popular these days to believe that, in regards to election, predestination and similar doctrines, God chose us in eternity past because we chose God in the present. Is that Biblical? How does God's omnipotence factor into our choice affecting God's actions?

I'd like to hear from fellow believers what you believe regarding the elect of God and why you believe it.

It's important to hear what the other parts of the body of Christ has to say about this, y'know? ;)

I have been researching the Mormons and want to join the one that is the most true to the teaching of Joseph Smith but I can't find a web site for them. They are called the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ and Latter Day Saints.

These are exact quotes.

Now watch the athiest get angry


"My religion consists of a humble admiration of the illimitable superior spirit who reveals himself in


“I want to know how God created this world. I am not interested in this or that phenomenon, in the spectrum of this or that element. I want to know His thoughts; the rest are details.”

“Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.”

When the solution is simple, God is answering.”

Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.”

"God does not care about our mathematical difficulties. He integrates empirically."

"God is subtle but he is not malicious."

the slight details we are able to perceive with our frail and feeble mind."

As I kid I was never afraid of the dark (only after seeing a scary movie). When I was a teenager my Dad had me move down to the Den/Guest Room because we had 4 bedrooms for 6 people and I needed my own space.

The first few nights were the scariest and most unexplainable I've ever had. The third night there I had turned the light off one minute before I heard what sounded like a dog growling in the middle of the room. We don't have a dog.

A few weeks later I had woken up the the strangest sound ever. It seemed to be coming from everywhere. It sounded like a mixture between ET and an animal breathing really heavy.

Even before the night with the dog I felt this pang of fear. Like I said, I had never been afraid of the dark, and I was fine even when my parents left me alone for the weekend.

My question is, is the work of the Devil? I don't believe he house is haunted (or els I would have noticed stuff like this before.

I would appreciate SERIOUS responses.

This may sound silly , but here it goes.My husband will do it openly admitting that because he is a man he will always deal with it, the sin of lust. He will check out other women because he has been told that the first look is not a sin and he also started looking at women on the computer , he said that they were just in bikinis, but I doubt it was the whole truth, and then I caught him in the bathroom relieving himself! He would never admit to cheating on me , though I strongly sense that he has in my heart. I feel so betrayed, and he thinks he has done nothing wrong. Is this grounds for divorce?What about matthew 5:27-28?

some christians are always talking about "the christian thing to do" (being empathetic, kind, not excluding others [especially for stupid reasons] and excepting others), but then discriminate gays people with "wrong" religeons?

(note: i'm not trying to generalize ALL christians for doing this, i know many who keep their beliefs to themselves and respect others and the desisions they make for themselves... but i also know many, many more who don't..... i'm just curious if anyone can explain this to me?)

I see allot of people giving advice, sharing their knowledge but asking very few questions. Do those that refrain from asking questions, as often as others, gone to a self proclaimed higher level, where you feel you have all the answers with nothing new to learn?

Real, objective evil is the lack or absence of goodness. That is, the presence of evil presupposes the existance of an objective moral standard that is being violated. If real evil exists, then an objective standard of goodness by which something is deemed evil must also exist. Where could this standard of goodness come from if we are all just cosmic accidents produced by purely physical forces?
The existance of evil is used to argue against belief in God. What then, is the cosmic standard by which we judge evil, if it isn't God?
