what is your opinion of him, he basically was the same man as Joe Smith (except for the fact that Jim Jones had a bachelor's degree and wasnt a racist)

they both deceived many Americans , brainwsashed them and ultimately sent them to hell.

Do you see Jim Jones any differently than Joseph Smith

I simply have a relationship with the living God - Jesus Christ. It's a Love thing. It has nothing to do with religion. Where there is no love (Relationship with God) than there will be law (religion). Simple enough for you?

If it isn't Gays it's Wiccans, or Muslims, or Jews, or Atheists, or Communists, or Pagans.

For example, consider their need to get angry with me over the use of the word "Christian".

Some insist it is not exact enough. Those who wish to get angry read it and assume it means "all Christians". Others who do not choose to get angry read it and assume "some Christians".

You can tell a lot by the assumptions people make.

But reviewing the history of Christianity and you would be hard pressed to find one -week- where some Christians weren't advocating hatred against others.

If you've invented a creature like Satan to justify hating 'his minions', you can get a lot of mileage out of that excuse.

1700 years and still going strong, to be precise.

So why does Christianity continue to produce hate-filled devotees after 1700 years since achieving political power in Rome?

Its so weird and has been going on for about a year. At first whenever I looked at the clock, it was always 9:11 mostly p.m., then I started just seeing the number 11, wich is kinda funny because you know how in elementry school they put everyone in order when you walked down the halls, well my numer was always 11, even in the 4 different schools I went to. When I used to be in middle school, both 7th and 8th grade, my computer number was always 11. Also when I would just so happen to look at the clock, it would have 11 in it. And I was seeing it everywere I went.

I started thinking maybe it was a good luck number, but nothing good or bad has ever come out of it, other than on tests/quizzes, I never understand question #11.

Isnt that so weird. And now I have a doctors appointment on september 11.


Does anyone have an idea of what this number means, or is it just a coincidence

An Atheist who does all good things? Or a devout Catholic priest who molests little children? One is a non-believer, the other is.

#1 Who said we are entitled to own opinion?

If everyone were entilted to their own opinion, then it is ok for murderers to kill, since that's what he/she believes in, and everyone has free wills. No charges.

#2 Who told you no one should tell the other what to do?

If that was the case, then a visitor should be able to walk inside of my immaculate house with his dirty shoes because he can do whatever he wants, for no one should tell the other what to do.

#3 If we die and go back to where we were coming from ( Nowhere) then that means we're going nowhere, right?

If that is true, how do you know where we came from, such as nowhere? What was nowhere like?

Plus, you haven't been to everywhere to know we are going nowhere, so where you get your nonsense from, blindness eh?

Please note that I received my 5th violation notice this morning for revealing genuine facts about the lord. Even Yahoo itself is an Atheist .

The lovely Chosen by God 777 seems to think so. Poor guy. I don't think he'd know what to do with a woman if he ever had the opportunity.

Ok my fellow beautiful R&S women, let's take a poll: Can a Christian be a feminist? Yes or no.

And for the wonderful men of R&S: would you really, honestly want a weak woman who doesn’t have her own opinion but is basically like an indentured servant?

Chosen by God 777, you need not answer. I’m pretty sure we all already know what you’re going to say.

It doesn't seem too much to ask. Surely if god loved us, he would offer indisputable proof to convince the millions of non-beleivers of his existence. Why hasn't he? Do not answer that he already has, since obviously, if he already had, then everyone would be convinced and no one would deny his existence.

He " died for the sins of the WHOLE world". "He is not willing that any should perish". "God so loved the world" "Love never fails". So you might as well come to Him now instead of later.

The whole issue is Good versus Evil, God vs the Devil, and Right vs Wrong.

There is a universally established law to the effect of: "for every action there is an equal and positive reaction"

Who dares say there isn't evil is the world today? If there is no evil, there is no devil. But we all know there is evil on earth today. This cannot be debated. So there is also good, and the source of good is God.

Jesus clearly states "he that is not for me is against me" Luke 11:23

You can play both sides of the fence: you either believe God or you believe the devil. There is no neutral or middle ground.

My question to all is: Who's side are you on?
God is preparing a people for his kingdom but likewise the enemy of all that is righteous is doing the same....

"For example, a conservative Christian teleminister in the early 1990s advocated the execution of all Wiccans in the U.S. More recently, a Baptist pastor from Texas advocated that the U.S. army round up Wiccans and burn them alive with napalm. Both clergy were immune from prosecution due to the U.S. Constitution's First Amendment which guarantees almost complete freedom of speech in the country. (We do not wish to overemphasize genocidal advocacy of Wiccans by conservative Christians. However, we are unaware of any other instances in North America where genocide has been actively advocated in recent years.)"

Though I don't believe that living the gay lifestyle is a good choice, and believe it is certainly a choice (or result of confusion/pain in one's life - I saw the study of hamsters turning gay due to stress & overpopulation) -
I care about the people who are in that lifestyle.
Yes, I want them to have "nearest of kin" rights in
hospitalization, for example.
No, I don't want to be censored, fined or sued (against freedom of speech) for saying in public that I disapprove of
the lifestyle and would like them to try.
I also don't want my child taught to say, "There's nothing
wrong with the gay life style." They can say, "Though I
don't approve of their lifestyle, I care about them as humans."
ok - what about gay marriage? Marriage is sacred, yet we as society take it for granted as it is, by and large - perhaps
no more gov't marriage licences - just a statement of
"closest relation" to protect rights? What do you think?
I don't know how to solve adoption rights...

Why do Christians feel like they need to control society and insist that everyone must follow their social code of ethics? Why are many Christians so self-righteous? Why can't Christians simply respect other people, their religions, and their morals?

I'm not saying that all Christians do this, because that would be an unfair judgment.

Still why do some Christians do these things?
