..Christians if you were living in that era once again, imagine

1. The Earth would have been still "flat" coz it was written in the Bible and the Age of Exploration would not have begun. Columbus would have been insurrected for heresy long back and no more scientific discoveries.

2. No flying machines (airplane) or any instrument of Satan as the Pope would forbid them.

3. We would be still in the Middle Ages stuck down in the same rut for centuries.

--
It's only when men started questioning the Bible and the concept of God that we are living in age where you can preach your gospel by the world wide web. Both Tim Berners Lee and Bill Gates, founders of this concept are atheists.

I'm sorry if I sound stupid asking this, I am not a Christian but always interested in finding out about other religions.
Something that has always confused me about Christianity is that they teach that if you sin you go to hell - but from what I understand, Jesus died to repent for our sins and so you won't go to hell anyway. I'm probably being daft but I don't understand that part.

This statement is a cut and paste response from another user. I've seen the intent of it commonly expressed in different forms and in slightly different words but I have never heard a reasonable explanation or a description of exactly how and what and in which way the "reality" of God is expressed.

".. in my reality God is a very real presence .."

If you have your own reality, aren't you a tad nuts? After all, it cannot be denied that we do, all of us, exist in a quite real and shared reality. So how is it different for you as a believer in God? Precisely, what is changed? What effect does God have on reality... on the real and shared reality that we all live in and know?

So, I have finally decided to go and leave Yahoo Answers. At first I thought I would get some real interesting debate and knowledge, perhaps even a challenge to my faith. All I have seen is a general antagonistic attitue from the atheists, and a whining simpering "why do you all hate me" from the Chrsitians.

As a Chrsitian, I've got better things to concentrate on. Have a good life all, no matter what you believe.

God bless
Andy

having any Christian writings (including the Bible) will mean prison or death and that is why you as a Christian must put to memory and heart, "God's teachings" Not a word for word memorization of a book but the meaning through the guidance of the Holy Spirit of God's will?
And this must be done in order to tell others about our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ?

Why is it that in the workplace that a male boss will always treat the attractive females differently than the average female co-workers even though the boss isn't that appealing?
And sometimes these attractive girls take advantage of their male bosses so they can get what they want like a day off or wanting to leave early and they get away with it because they know their boss won't say no to them, and if a average female co-worker ask the male boss if she could leave early, he would respond differently and maybe deny her. WHY??? Give me some suggestions........????????

I can never find decent people to mingle with or decent job. Is the place a bad fung sheui or is it just me lol. Be nice :D

Apart from the obvious.

"You must believe in what we believe! OR DIE!"

Yes. I know Stalin was an atheist. And Hitler may have been. But so?
