Any atheists have any stories about experiences where they ALMOST thought God might exist. Even if ultimately u still don't believe, anyone have any stories? Thanks.

Children will believe whatever you tell them is true. But many people feel that is the best time to teach them about religion, and I can understand why, if a child can believe whole heartily that a guy breaks into your house to leave presents, then it is a perfect time to tell them that jesus is magic. I think it should be a form of child abuse to teach religion to children before they are old enough to make other important decisions in their lives. (And try to tell me that threats of eternal fire is mental abuse) Now some will argue, but I am not saying they can't learn manners, and morals. (you can tell a child it's wrong to hurt animals without telling them "the bible says")

About six months ago, a gentleman named Akbar moved next door with his wife and children. Obviously, with his name, I was petrified. After everything that has happened in Madrid, NY and London, I was scared for my family.

So I would not allow my children to be outside without my direct supervision, and often I would end up walking the long way to my car just to not walk by Akbar's place.

Last Monday, he was walking down the sidewalk and caught up to me when I started running. Guess what? It turns out he is a Mormon!!!!! Crazy!

I was so relieved. I seriously thought my family was in serious jeopardy! Now I have a new best friend! I've introduced him into my country club, and have given him a key to our house in case of an emergency. It's also good to have some help in the babysitting department when me and the little woman go to church.

I'm just telling you this story to let you know they aren't all bad.

and if he doesnt NEED it, why does, and did, he demand it?

I'm very concerned for his soul on the basis of the points which I have listed below:

1) He's not monogomous.
2) He has "special relationships" with other male dogs at the Park.
3) He licks his private parts.
4) He sniffs the behinds of other dogs.

Is there something I can do to get him to act more Christian like? I'm really concerned about his behavior.........

Serious answers only please.

Thanks!

On this website i've seen loads of people say that joining wicca is bad, or that its devil worship or heretical and stuff.
Firstly, why do you say it is bad?
Secondly, wiccans don't believe in the devil, so how can we worship him. Thats satanists
And thirdly, anyone who isn't your religion is herectical to your own religion, so everyone is heretical?
But basically why do you urge us not to join wicca, or as you call it 'the dark side'?

They have no chance of getting rid of that sin because they can't accept Jesus as their savior, so if they die or are aborted, they must go to hell, right? Acts 4:12 says that Jesus is the ONLY name by which anyone may obtain salvation, and if infants can't possibly know that name, then what choice do they have?

There is no reason to believe Jesus died for our sins, unless God is too weak and despicable to forgive our sins. God is not despicable, but Christianity is despicable for claiming that God murdered His own prophet to atone for mankind. This is foolishness, utter nonsense.

The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy. (Psalms 103:8)

The LORD is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy. (Psalms 145:8)

But christianity insists that sins of mankind could not be forgiven without redemption ... Doesn't that make God weak? that He wills to do something but He can't, despite wishing to do so ... ?

Based on a general, non-denominational, non-interpretive, reading of the text of Jeremiah 31:31-34, the following points are discernible:

* The New Covenant is established by God himself.[4]
* The New Covenant is made with the "house of Israel" and the "house of Judah".[5]
* The New Covenant is not like the broken covenant made with Moses at Mount Sinai.
o Unlike the broken covenant (Jer 11), the New Covenant is kept by its members.[6]
* Characteristics of the members of the New Covenant:[7]
o The law of God is written in their thinking and their affections.
o The LORD, i.e. YHVH, will be their God, and they will be his people.[8]
o Every single member of the New Covenant "knows the LORD" in an intimate way.[9]
o The sins of the members of the New Covenant are forgiven by God, and will never be recalled.

Does "intimate way" include "raised as" or "born"? Does it include what your parents believe?

I'm sorry I think it is funny, my friend is a receptionist and whenever she hangs up with someone she says "buh bye" and her boss told her to try to stop it. She says she is trying but it just naturally is difficult to LOL.

What do you guys think?
