First of all I am too a Christian. I believe everything the bible says is true which it is. Anyway where do you think God literally came from. I know the bible says he has always been, but did'nt he come from somewhere? Where did that come from? Maybe we just cannnot simply answer this til we are in heaven and can ask God ourselves but I just want to know what you think. Someone told me that somewhere in the bible it refers to God coming from a land of Nad???

Kind of a convoluted approach, isn't it? You prove every step of what you say, but I don't have to prove anything.

A reminder that the Bible is just the ravings of various people and doesn't prove anything.

I sure hope she's looking into how Canada and Australia have their system set up. Those systems look like a winner to me.

Therefore, if I confess my sins to another Christian why would this be seen as less significant than if I were to confess them to a Catholic priest?

And why would a Catholic priest (assumingly) feel as though confessing his sins to a member of the congregation would not be sufficient? Is there Biblical precedent for this?

Thanks!

I mean if you know there's a "better place" and that you will see them again then why do you cry and get all sad? It doesn't make sense to me!

You know about forks, I assume you use forks in the garden... how can you invent gunpowder and build the Great Wall, but not use a fork? I just can't get on with chopsticks.

Am a Jehova witness, but I have always have a tendency to question things and open to any other knowledge(was told this is healthy).
At the bottom of my heart, I was never comfortably reconciled to the justifications for Jesus being son of god (incarnation and stuff) as they transcend the human common sense and sound more mythical. Should we just accept it as truth though it sounds more of a myth.
Cant we either be all sons of god or no one is (as in Evan Almighty movie) ?
Are there any other justifications out there that are not mythical ?

Please I want justifications, explanation not just one line proposal or degrading statements.

My husband and I are taking our two girls (five and two) trick-or-treating for the first time this Halloween. Becca (five) is a princess, and Leia (two) is a bunny. How can I keep them warm, but still let them wear costumes?

First I want to state for the record I fundamentally do not believe that America is a Christian nation, but I wish to ask a question of those who do.


As a Christian nation does that mean that those who are not Christian: Atheists, Jews, Muslims, Hindus, Pagans, etc.
Are somehow less American than those who are Christian?

I know that Fundamentalists do not like to be bothered with actual "facts", but every once in a while I have to throw a few out there when I see posts full of errors.

Here is what the church teaches regarding grace, justification, and works:

CCC 1996: "Our justification comes from the grace of God. Grace is favor, the free and undeserved help that God gives us..."

CCC 2010: "Since the initiative belongs to God in the order of grace, no one can merit the initial grace of forgiveness and justification..."

CCC 1992: "Justification has been merited for us by the Passion of Christ who offered himself on the cross as a living victim, holy and pleasing to God, and whose blood has become the instrument of atonement for the sins of all men."

How come when people say "i'm an atheist i don't believe in God. They always try to disclaim God and jesus, but they never try to say I don't believe in the devil or satan because that stupid or whatever reason they have for not believing. Why do atheist always say no god but never no devil. Coincedence?
