I have met many people I consider to be 'holy' or 'sacred' who aren't Christians (although I have met many holy Christians). Do you think that belief in a God is necessary to have this characteristic? I feel we are inherently divine by nature but that's just me......Thoughts?

let me explain. If such people existed whatever was written about their actions and words were written hundreds of years after that person lived ok

abraham 600 years

moses 500

mohomed 500

buddha 700

jesus 150

noah 600

and if you tell me that oral traditions can constitute the absolute truth i consider you to be a very ignorent person

when the gap is so wide between the persons life and the actual writing of his story then i ask,

how can you sit there and make absolute claims?

We all know that God ordered Ezekiel to make his bread with human dung (Ezekiel 4:12), but ultimately relented and allowed him to use cow patties instead (Ezekiel 4:15). What other little holy practical jokes did God play on Ezekiel?

Unlike Britain, Christianity has become synonymous with the American culture, it's in their history, politics, education, home and social life. Are the people that attack religion on the site wanting a different American culture, one that is more secular like Britain?

You see someone pull up in a very nice car. Which of the following is your first instinct:

1 - Get upset and want to take it away from them?

2 - Become determined to seek an education and work hard to earn enough money to afford a car like that?

3 - Be content with what you have and be happy that they are successful?

4 –Become upset at the person driving the car because they basically stepped over the backs of the less fortunate to acquire it?

i was in line to get dessert and there was this bratty girl saying "can you move your big butt out of the way? you're blocking my way"... and her friend says "im sorry she has a personality disorder...." (couldn't tell if it was sarcastic but sounded like it) i felt really insulted and hurt and just ignored her. what should i do if something like that happens again? should i fight back or just walk away? what should i do?

Now for those of you who would say Jesus, and thats fine He is mine too, think of someone else. I would say my Grandpa, he is a man after I see Him as a man after God's own heart.
