Society & Culture - 10 September 2007

Do you know why we try to convert you and many others to our beliefs? Because it seems like you don't and you are just annoyed with us because you say that we are shoving our religion down your throats which for some people I won't deny that has happened, but that isn’t what we want to do. The reason that we do it is for you guys to be saved. We wouldn’t bother if we didn’t care. We don’t do it out of anger or malice thinking that you guys are ignorant or anything in fact the main reason that we do it is because we care about you and it may seem strange to hear but that is the love that God puts in our hearts. I don’t see why there is so much hatred for us. I can understand that many Christians through out history have given nothing but a bad name to Christianity and perhaps you think that we are all like that but we are not. We only preach love and just want you to be saved. I would appreciate it if no one insults me for this statement please. Thank you.
-God Bless

Why do you think the genealogy of Jesus is different in Matthew than it is in Luke?

Is this something that concerned you at any point in your walk with Christ?

In ancient times, girls were married off around 12 years of age (or even less, depending on the time and culture). This was the common practice among Pagan cultures, but the Jews supposedly had a hot-line to God and got all their rules from Him, so how come He didn't tell them marrying little girls is immoral? He gave them lots of OTHER rules (i.e. no Gay sex, etc.), yet He couldn't be bothered to tell them not to engage in child marriage? And YES, the Jewish people's OWN RECORDS show that they did this (ever heard of the Talmud?) My point here isn't to lambast the Jews (like I said, EVERYBODY was doing it back then), but to note that if they really WERE in contact with God, He SURELY would have forbad the practice...

but then they go and act racist like use racial slurs? I am white myself but notice a lot of white people doing this, they dont want to acknowledge that black people and other minorities sometimes still suffer alienation and discrimination, and they act like everything is equal or better for the blacks, when in doing this, they actually are nurturing racism! To pretend it doesnt exist only keeps it alive. I used to get sick of having history and the exploiation of black people and ither minorities rubbed in my face as a high school student or younger, but now I understand why it's done this way---SO IT DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN! What I mean is, these certain white people act like slavery and racism and discrimination against blacks was so long ago that it is no longer relevant to today, and that today the main form of discrimination is social class the rich vs the poor or middle class, but like I said believing this only perpetuates racism! Any1 know what I mean and can you provide insight?

Let's see now. God is omnipotent, omniscient, and intelligent enough to have created **everything**. In the entire universe!

In light of that level of power, how idiotic is it to think that ANY "faith" needs "defending?" No matter what any person thinks or believes, God will have things any way that He *wants* to have them. There is NO way that any person or group on this dust mote of a planet can harm God in the least!

Either He paid the debt, or He didn't. If He PAID the debt, our slate should be wiped clean - whether we BELIEVE He did it or not should be immaterial. Let me explain... Suppose you owed the bank $100,000 dollars and I went down and paid your debt off. Once I did that, the bank is happy, and no longer after you. Now suppose that you didn't really believe that I actually paid the money you owed - would the bank still be after you? Of COURSE NOT! - at least, not if it's a HONEST bank!!! What would matter to the bank is that it GOT ITS MONEY, NOT whether YOU personally believed this had occured! If we can only be saved by agnoledging that He died for our sins, this can only mean that He has NOT paid the "bank" - God - yet, and is holdlng our redeption hostage until we meet His demands!

I'm just wondering why so many people find this funny when this man is clearly disabled. Many commented that he is drunk or stoned, but if that were the case I doubt the pastor of the church would have allowed him to lead the congregation in singing the song.

Serious answers only, please.

Since most do not have the mental capability to voluntarily believe in Jesus as a lord and saviour.

Also, since babies cannot do the same, do they go to hell? Considering the concept of original sin and there is no age of accountability specified in christianity.

If this has been asked before, go ahead and drink up folks. :-)
