They write in the question box

"Get real answers from millions of real people?."

Then when you click on it, they write a different question that has nothing to do with that. I've seen this a lot lately. Here are 3 examples from 3 different users. What's up with that?

most people slam the door in your face or plainly just dont want to talk to you when you knock on their door on Saturday morning?
Im not being disrespectful. I am just wondering...I mean, that has to be an uncomfortable situation right? Does it ever make you want to quit?
For the record, i would never slam the door in anyone's face.

speak of inspired prophets vs non-inspired prophets?
I see in the bible that if a prophet spoke something that did not come to pass they were stoned to death. But I do not see anything that says if a person is a non-inspired prophet its ok to make false claims.
thanks

I read the Bible.

In my younger days, I went to Church and youth groups and volunteered for Church-based causes.

I don't believe. I never have. Not even as a small child. Not even in my weakest or strongest moments. Not in the slightest.

It is not, and never was, a 'choice' for me to accept Jesus as my personal savior. I didn't decide 'hey, I'm going to not believe in God now.' I just don't.

If God didn't give me a choice, then why would he damn me to hell?

Or was the choice provided to me just to provide lip service and tell people 'Yes, I believe'?

Will you think your tattoos are cute at age age 50 or 60. I know you think it's cute now while you're under 40.

ok i am recently studying Christianity and one thing is really bothering me...
if Jesus was mistakenly thought to be the son of god (which he is of course not; rather a messenger of god) why couldn't he have just said to his disciples/followers that I am NOT the son of god/man and stop being fooled. Wouldn't that have prevented all the chaos that we have today and almost over a billion people being falsely mislead? And also that would have served the message of the God in a better way as well cuz instead of committing blasphemy and worshiping a messenger/prophet, Christians would actually understand the message of Jesus and actually follow his teachings?

Thoughtful words to "mortal enemies" are encouraged. Opportunistic sniping is not.

I've been an atheist for quite a while, but recently I've been thinking of switching over to Christianity. The only problem is that I'm afraid I may use my mind too much to be a Christian. I understand that being Christian involves the sacrifice of your reason to the Bible, and I'm thinking I may not have the lack of knowledge that it takes. I believe in the big bang and that homosexuality is a natural occurance, which are concepts of reason and scientific backing that I would have to give up upon conversion. Anyone know what I should do?

An article on CNN explicitly mentions that the 14 year old shooter at a Cleveland high school yesterday was an "atheist". The religion of the dozens of school shooters before him, mostly Christian, has never been discussed in the news. And to make matters worse, this particular article, although it states that the shooter was an atheist, it fails to mention that what triggered the rampage. This kid was had been beaten up by Christians just a few days earlier for not believing in god, an imaginary being. What a world we live in.

Seventh-day Adventist Christian leaders advocate that the Second coming of Christ will be Visible and not Secret at all. There are many Christian scholars who postulate a "SECRET RAPTURE" view point. This particular view at its core advocates that Christ will secretly take Christians from the earth while the wicked ones will be left behind.

The Holy Bible clealy states in Acts 1:9-11 that Christ will return and that his return the second time will be a literal and visible event. Revelation 1:7 states that every eye shall see him at his appearance. 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 declares that at Christ coming the Lord shall descend with a "SHOUT", The Archangel will be heard along with the trump of God. Nothing secret about his coming. It will be spectacular.

The Bible also states that the dead in Christ will come forth from the grave. They will rise and those who are living will be taken up to meet the Lord in the air.

Will you be ready when Jesus comes again?

On my last question, many of you said that prayer is not about asking for things. Are you going to tell me that if your child was in critical condition in a hospital bed you are not going to pray for that child to recover?

I wanted to know, if it is also fornication if you use a condom when having sex with a woman/man before marriage or what about hand and mouthjobs? Should you use condoms there as well, if this keeps you from becoming one flesh with the other person at all?

In other words, Christians seem to be dying off at the same rate as everybody else, for the same reasons (disease, accidents, murder, etc).
