Did he EVER learn the true art of taming his desires regarding an appetite for food? Or was this merely an individual rare case of someone who's anatomy 'stayed' overweight w/out eating too much? hmmm, awfully uncanny.

Mark 7:5-9, 13
Then the Pharisees and scribes asked [Jesus], why walk not thy disciples according to the tradition of the elders, but eat bread with unwashen hands?
He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is WRITTEN [Jesus is quoting the Bible], This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men...
And he said unto them, Full well YE REJECT THE COMMANDMENT OF GOD, THAT YE MAY KEEP YOUR OWN TRADITION.
Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.

Hmmmm....teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
Hmmm.............laying aside the commandment of God
hmmmmmmmmmm......YE REJECT THE COMMANDMENT OF GOD, THAT YE MAY KEEP YOUR OWN TRADITION.

How do you justify this?

Organized religion is a pile of CRAP! It IS responsible for countless atrocities done in the name of God(not by God),and tons of other UN-Godly things.I gotta say I am with the anti-believers on this one.For the obvious reason that sadly many religious people do follow blindly,hypocritically thinking they are saved just because they attend a building with a pointy roof.Not having the faintest clue what Jesus was teaching,and all the while perpetuating their ignorance to anyone that will listen.I can very much relate to the anti-believers reasoning, in this regard anyway.And I'll even go so far as to say kudos, for your rationale.

Homosexuals, Child Rapists, Deamons and Satan's Children?

I read this book and saw a video on Youtube that said that anyone who hates Mormons are Racist, Prejudicial Bigots and Not True Christians and Most of them practice sodomy on each other.

Is that True?

Many Christians pray according to the "ACTS" method:

A - Adoration of God
C - Confession of sins to God
T - Thanksgiving to God
S - Supplication (or petitioning God for our needs and for the needs of others.)

How do you pray?

Why is it that JW's aren't allowed to have blood transfusion? In a case of a child(unbaptized) of a JW - the doctor advised for blood transfusion to save the child from death, would you as a parent give consent? If not, do you hold guilt of your child's death because you have resisted the transfusion same as you have disallowed your child to live longer?

That humans are NOT animals??? I saw a few Christians post that. If we aren't animals, what are we? Plants? Bacteria? Protists? Fungi?

I mean, we ARE animals! We belong to the kingdom animalia (animals).

Same with the fact that they think we aren't apes... we ARE. It's proven! I can understand that they think God created the universe and was the overseer of evolution, but it's pretty obvious. We're apes.

I also thought that all Christians nowadays just thought Adam and Eve was a folk story, same with Noah's ark. They believe that???

Among many things.... one main thing- and it all starts with Jesus.
How does Jesus have no human father? Does this mean that God...did you know... with Mary? Even if its like a miracle or something, it still reminds me of the old Greek myths where Zeus or something impregnated mortal women....ie VERY paganistic. Same thing with "Son of God". This is like a pagan Greek myth, where Heracles ( Greek for Hercules) and Perseus or something were half-human, half-god, sons of gods.
And how is there 3 gods? Jesus, God, and then a"holy ghost". What is a holy ghost? This has nothing to do with Halloween right? I thought not.
The crucifix with Jesus on it? That really, really, looks like an idol. You know, the ones that you keep in your pocket and/or the ones that hang on the wall. I mean, how are you supposed to pray in peace when there's an almost life-size figure of some guy bleeding to death on a cross right above your head? Looks like pagan idols to me.

Hope this isn't trollish. Peace

Would you choose God's Word that is the Bible?

or

Would you choose man-made traditions that are not a part of scripture?

Please pick only one.

Why did the Catholic church try and stop the Bible being translated into common languages? For instance when William Tyndale translated it into English they had him strangled and burned at the stake? They also bought as many of his translation as they could and burned them. A church burning the Bible. Why does the Catholic church fear the Bible? Is it because it proves many of their traditions false?

For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. Revelation 22:18-19


I would be really scared to add anything to God's Word or take away from it, wouldn't you?
