I myself am an Atheist, but I have said many times that I am not the smartest person who ever lived. I don't know everything, nor will I ever. Christians, not many, but some will admit the same thing. Could we all just get together and admit that we are "not so smart"?

2000 plus yrs ago much of which was handed down by word of mouth from generation to generation (we all know how well that works out) we call it gossip nowadays.
Any way- are you all that delusional and mentally lost that you dont even think of the origins of this glorious bible.

I have already asked for forgivness from God but i also pray that you all will forgive me for what i have done. I feel that as a Christian, this is the right thing to do because i don't want to make a bad name for us Christians.

Recently, i got 2 messages questioning my salvation, this is due to me talking about buttered toast all the time, im being serious, the reason why i talk about it so much is because it gets very boring here at work, i have to work 12 hours a day, sometimes longer. I want to entertain myself so i ask questions about buttered toast just to get laughs, i didn't mean for anyone to think i wasn't saved, I just wanted to make others and myself laugh which it worked but yet it also had others questioning my salvation. Im very sorry for that. Some of you may be asking, Why talk about Buttered Toast anyway? Well this is because i just love that way it sounds, lol and i love buttered toast in general. I ask for you to please forgive me, in Jesus name. God bless

So, are there any biblical verses of this?

I'm just curious. It seems to me that anybody who examines the writings of the "Founding Fathers" in depth would come to the conclusion that they absolutely did NOT intend the US to be a Christian nation, or a nation governed by the laws of any religion. In fact, they viewed government based on religion as an inherently bad thing. Just look at the treaty of Tripoli which says "the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion;" Thomas Jefferson, for one, has some notable very anti orgainzed religion thoughts.

So I'm wondering where people got the idea that this country was founded as a Christian nation. Historians are welcome to answer...

I mean, we are supposed to treat our body as a "temple". and loading it up with these two items is like eating triple cheeseburgers for breakfast lunch and dinner, isn't it?

Me and my spirts are equals, I don't need to bow to them to get them to help-- friendly dialogue is enough for me. But to each their own, all religions and people have their different types of prayer.

But, who do you pray to (or speak to) and why?

I mean what would "creation" have been like if God didn't create the Devil? I mean obviously an all knowing god knew the outcome, he even knows that he will win in the end(See Revelations) But was he just really bored and wanted a nemesis? Can anyone explain the logic?

I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things

What an intolerant egotistical god, love me or burn in hell !!! Any how, knowing that the bible has been altered,changed,edited and added to over the years [and this has been proved ] would that not make all said believers of the bible guilty of not honouring the true word of god and therefore all end up in hell ?????

Reality for most people is based on a complex web of lies/untruths; a matrix if you will.

For those of us that took the red pill we know that George Washington wasn't really the first president and Jesus probably wasn't really named Jesus. Those people that took the blue pill think Saddam Hussien was a terrorist.

The fact is Americans are surrounded by lies. Commercials lie, newspaper lie, and so do our textbooks. People even lie to eachother solely to avoid another person's feelings. Everybody accepts this as normal.

Has all this lying warped our reality?

To me, at work, you don't interupt someone unless there's an emergency or you have information pertaining to their call. I've told him nicely, I've sent an e-mail. He keeps doing it. He even talks loudly into my phone while I'm talking to a customer! He's not a kid, he's like in his 50's. I'm at a loss. What do I do?

If our religious leaders keep tickling our ears with "touchy feely" preaching ? If they are too afraid to tell the truth that would turn people away from sin, how are we to examine ourselves, and how will our hearts be convicted? What say you, Christian?
