I am the only guy in an office of 6 women. Never in my life have I ever been so conflicted where I've loved the job and clientele, but have come to despise the people I'm working with. My God; the back-bitting, katty and gossipy demeanors. One minute they are all lovey and kissy, but let me forget to paper-clip something that I give them and hell spawn is let loose and spread between each and everyone of them by lunch time. I've been here a year and I'm actually thinking about leaving. A good fremale friend of mine says that it's like that at any office where a majority of women work. Is this true?

Atheism in my humble opinion should be accepted. Shouldn't that be the pre-requisite?. How can know that what we believe is indeed valid? How do we know what we believe is not conspiracy and we are not being fed by Mindlessness. We should always question and have inquisitive minds. We follow our countries, our beliefs or whatever because we are in that environment. How can we trust media, religious people or anyone else who may well be emotionally attached to whatever thing and may be selfish and not mindful in supporting them. Only when we become atheist, there is a real chance of understanding God. Otherwise we may believe in a God that our ego has imposed on us. Dont get me wrong, i am not trying to take away hope just curious on reality!
Only when we become atheists we give ourselves a chance to listen, therefore, Shouldn't atheism be encouraged?

He was sure he was Allah's messenger, but even so, it does not strike me as good behaviour at all.
Its true some Old Testament figures were violent, but the standard was raised by Christ to a level that declares violence against others to forward ones's faith sinful. Conscience surely tells us so as well.

An ad for the sex fair shows kinky people arranged similarly to the painting "The Last Supper". The Last Supper is a painting that was made 1400 years after the event it portrays. No one knows what any of the people really looked like or the table or the room itself, it's an artist's interpretation. Actually, the painting is almost certainly NOT like the actual event, why would they all be sitting on one side of a long table? To make a nice painting of course. Catholics don't worship graven images, right? So why do they care if the kinky ad has people arranged like the Last Supper?

Aren't they beiing a little over-sensitive?

12And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove; which returned not again unto him any more.

Noah sent out a female dove and it returned with the olive branch. When he sent it out again it never came back. hat meant that there was a poor male dove with no partner and thus the species should have died out!!!!

If Jesus is not God, and the Holy Spirit is not God, and there is no Trinity, then none of the concepts of the New Testament are worth any study. Give the NT an apocryphal status, good for reading and a nice way to live your life, but 2 out of 3 aren't deity anyway. Back to the YHVH of the old Testament, toss the New.

Moses started his campaign of terrorism by killing an Egyptian slave master (Exodus 1:15-17) . When the Midianites started inbreeding with the Israelites we have this verse- "And the Lord said unto Moses, Take all the heads of the people, and hang them up before the Lord against the sun, that the fierce anger of the Lord may be turned away from Israel. And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, Slay ye every one his men that were joined unto Baalpeor." Num 31- "And they warred against the Midianites, as the Lord commanded Moses; and they slew all the males.... And Moses was wroth with the officers of the host, with the captains over thousands, and captains over hundreds, which came from the battle. And Moses said unto them, Have ye saved all the women alive? .... Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves."

because it will be easier to explain that jesus christ as his son but if you said a life was transferred into mary in order to create Jesus then what's the different in Adam's creation,Life was also blown into a clay ,motionless body.Why Jesus is son of God and Adam is not recognized as the son of God?Is begotten means life into a woman egg to create jesus, But because there is no woman or egg to conceive Adam,the life was blown directly into Adam.And if that the same then the word begotten is also apply to Adam.If jesus and adam is son of God then we are all great,grandchildren of God Almighty.Then why the Hell and Heaven story?

2Tim. 4:3 'You're going to find that there will be times when people
will
have no stomach for solid teaching, but will fill up on spiritual junk
food catchy opinions that tickle their fancy.' The Message Bible

Sometimes I get frustrated watching certain ministers and teachers of
the
Gospel. Many times there is too much hype attached to sermons.
Emotions,
commercialism, marketing strategies, etc. turn me off. Not to put
anyone
down, but there is so much we miss sometimes in the body of Christ
because
of selfish ministers that focus on money, prosperity, sales, and self
promotion! In the process, the Gospel gets twisted! You see, in order
for
a person to sell himself, he must edit the Gospel and turn it into a
feel
good message. The consequences of sin cannot be preached because it
doesn't prosper the preacher like feel good sermons. The topics that
generate the money are prosperity, breakthrough, coming out, going to
the
nex

I can think of one: "Love the sinner, hate the sin" -- which has become lazy shorthand directed at a specific group, often without any elaboration on how the "love" comes in.

Any others?

“Good” and moral is whatever that says is good! In one society it might be eating one’s enemies, in another it may be loving one’s enemies. "Good" could be killing off..the weak, the infirm..the disabled...???

First of all I dont like asking so much, i just realize I have been fed many lies, I must now find out what God wants. There is no mention of trinity in the bible. Where was it made up at

Jesus has always referred to God as a different and superior person.

"But I want you to know that the head of every man is the Christ; in turn the head of a woman is the man; in turn the head of the Christ is God." -- 1 Corinthians 11:3

"The Father is greater than I." -- John 14:28

"No man has seen God at any time." -- John 1:18

Also says that blaspheming God and Jesus can be forgiven but blaspheming the holy spirit can not be. If they are all trinity then why is only one unforgivable? How could God have a human son?
