Society & Culture - 27 July 2007

different Christian faiths. Like say, Catholic, Methodist, Presbertyrian(I spell that right?) and any others. There is no limits on what it is as long as you claim to be a Christian.
What do you believe? The basics of your faith? Why do you feel that this branch of Christianity is more right than the others? Please give a reference if you can, if not just that it feels right to you is enough.

For the curious, I study all faiths and right now I am exploring Christianity more fully. I own several Bibles, and a few Bible Study help books.
Thank you for telling me about your beliefs.

If the bible isn't proof that God exists (and it isn't), and the wonders of nature don't prove that God exists (and they don't), and your personal, subjective feelings aren't proof of God's existence (again, nope), what evidence is there that God exits?

Is it possible that the truth of God is too simple for “intelligent” people to understand? I don’t mean to knock intelligent Christians certainly their are many and the spirit will open the eyes of anyone, but it seems to me that the truth about Christ is so simple and easy to believe… maybe too simple for those who take PRIDE in their own wisdom. I, clearly, never had a problem with simple thoughts, since I have a simple mind, but does that make it easier to see the truth?

Go ahead and put me in my place if need be, certainly I am inclined to error, but if you agree that those who BOAST about their intellect may have a more difficult time believing please acknowledge that possibility.

if apples are people and the barrel is the world and its situations, which would u say is more correct?:

"we have a bunch of bad apples in a good barrel" or
"we have a bunch of basically good apples in a bad barrel"

.. my first impulse was getting rid of the bad apples would solve the worlds problems but the more i thought about it the more that seemed wrong .. what do u think?

Sometimes I can sense things about people, like i know they are sick. And they can look perfectly healthy. i will just know
Or i will dream about someone and feel the need to call them and if i dont my deceased grandmother will be insistant in the dream i contact them.
I would like to hear from people who believe heaven can give us signs. i will see a red bird alot also . i havent went into details on here but just curious if anyone else has experienced this.I have lost a daughter a few months ago and right before i lost her the Lords prayer keep going in my mind almost as a voice had said it to me.----im not talking along the lines of ghosts when i ask this question. My question is do other people receive signs like this from heaven. thanks

Did God give his own sperm to propagate Jesus' genetic diversity or did he just deify Joseph's?

Part of Isaiah 53 in the Bible says - about Jesus -
He was despised and rejected of men
A man of sorrows and acquainted with deepest grief.
We turned our backs on Him and looked the other way.
He was despised and we did not care.

Yet it was our weaknesses He carried;
it was our sorrows that weighed Him down.
And we thought His troubles were a punishment from God.
a punishment for His own sins.
BUT He was pierced for our rebellion,
crushed for our sins.
He was beaten so we could be whole.
He was whipped so we could be healed.
All of us, like sheep, have gone astray
We have left God's paths to follow our own
Yet the Lord laid on Him, the sins of us all.

Would you have a relationship with a younger man, say less than 45 ? Not an illicit affair or a one night stand but a legit relationship that might end up an intimate relationship? Why or why not ?

Why can't Protestants understand what is a "first born son" when the Bible itself tells us? "First born son" does NOT mean there were subsequent children! A "first born son" is a "male that opens the womb" (Luke 2:23; Exodus 13; Numbers 18:15-16), regardless of whether or not there are subsequent children.

I just got back from football camp, and I can't move. But anyway what did I miss? 777 is at Rachel, and Pangel's account got hacked? That is what I have gathered so far. For those who were spreading Christ's love while I was gone thanks. God Bless you all.
