Society & Culture - 18 August 2007

One of the questions asking about the difference between an atheist and agnostic someone on there - Bob T or someone I don't know said Both are wrong. There is a God. He wants a relationship with each of His people. He is the Creator and the Source of truth. He is the Author of the Plan of Salvation. He is my Lord.

Why is this needed?

Who is to say that the bible is true other than your faith?

I am cool with faith - but it isn't proof - hands down PROOF. It is simply the truth for you. Why does it HAVE to be the truth for me as well?

Why is there always the line that needs to be crossed?

I have no problem really with Christians personally, or them praying for me. Everyone has a right to their religion and life path. But I still don't get and probably never will why some individuals feel that not only do they have the only ticket to spiritual salvation and to top it off they have to declare it out loud -

I want a real answer - not a bunch of Xtian bashing.

I'm really interested and curious about what you have to say regarding this new discovery that sharks carry the genes for fingers and toes. How would a Christian Creationist explain this according to the Christian bible?

Alright, well I was just wondering if theres was a way to tell if someone was into other chicks. I knows theres really nothing solid until you actually ask them. But I really dig this girl I know, and I always feel like shes flirting with me and we just kind of click. I could just be getting flirting messed up with her just being friendly, but I don't know, and I'm starting to fall for her. Any help would be great, and I know theres other questions that have been asked like this, but the answers on those didn't really help. So if you could, let me know what you think.

She's 14. She sleeps with anyboy she thinks is cute. She's in the "popular" crowd at school and that is amazing to her bccause she is a freshman. She mocks other kids that she doesn't like. She dressed like a **** to attract attention from other guys. She parties till all hours of the night and comes home super late but she puts on a "good girl" act for my parents. I'm torn wether or not to tell them. She is into paganism and stopped believing in God at 11. How can I help her out of sin and into a relationship with Christ?

Are near death experiences caused by the dying brain or are they real after death experiences?

I know that my recalling of the exact words of the Bible are probably incorrect, but the nugget of the story is represented in my question. So please give me and others an answer to the question. Who, how and what and why did Jesus feel abandoned?

A,E,I,O,U then Y in that order.
For instance let's say the sequence was N,T,R,T instead of A,E,I,O,U - the word iNTeRneT will be right as well as iNTerRogaTive.
