I have just seen someone say it again and I have seen it in the past many times
" God only hears the prayers of those who are saved "

then how on earth can a non believer become a believer ?
how can God/Jesus come into the hearts of those who are seeking if their prayers are not answered ?
I do not understand this

does this mean that God doesnt know everything ?

I personally think it's hypocritical for vegetarians to condemn people who eat meat as animal cruelty when they go around wearing leather, suede, drive cars with leather, and have leather furniture.
Shania Twain said she loves animal and doesn't want to eat them yet she and her husband Robert Mutt Lange have a sheep farm raising sheep for leather.
Shania Twain wears leather, and thinks it's cruel to eat.
If she and any other vegetarian felt that way, then they shouldn't leather, and suede because animals for leather and suede are the same animals for meat.
I'm not vegetarian, I eat meat, and I wear leather, however I don't wear fur because that is cruelty since the animals are trapped and skinned alive of their skins before they die.
Leather and suede is obtained by animals having their skins away after they're dead.
PETA's dominstrations are disgusting. One of them was actually licking out of a toilet bowl in front of everyone, another was acting like cat having to urinate.

seriously, why do theists take it so personally when they find that facts differ from a book that is totally saturated with parables and stories whose primary purpose is to teach a moral code?

why modify some parts (stoning for blasphemy for instance) that are CLEARLY unable to be enforced today and unjust, but completely disregard a theory that is supported by evidence when it doesn't detract from your beliefs at all?

If I believed in god- then isn't it a logical step to see evolution and the big bang as simply the method which god created the earth or animals?

is it really that it offends or you see it as "negating" your religious beliefs or simply that you don't understand it and are against it because your parents were or the propoganda of your church tells you to?

what is it that keeps you from looking at evolution as the transmission as god's method or the big bang as the working components of the factory that produces silly putty?

thinks about people who tell tales on people
they don't even know. These people appoint themselves to a position, to what in their mind is very important. No one asked them to do it, and yet they think it is their job to control people and report them. I find people like that are a different breed from the rest of us. They love to do it especially when people are having good fun, I think it is a mental problem they just hate seeing folk having fun. What do you think, I don't think God would approve of what they are doing
as it is not very Christian like.

For example, to better help you understand the question.

Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn. Romans 12:15 - 1 Kings 20:28

Saul was very angry; this refrain galled him. "They have credited David with tens of thousands," he thought, "but me with only thousands. What more can he get but the kingdom?" (1 Samuel 18:8)

This statement caused something to snap in King Saul. From this point on, Saul was never the leader God intended him to be. He allowed insecurity to drive his every decision. Insecurity leads to the need to control people and circumstances. The need to control leads to anger once we realize we are unable to control the circumstance. King Saul could not accept, much less rejoice, over David's success.

Okay, I know how to tie the noose itself. I've done it many times. What I'm trying to do now is tie a fake noose with loops that go around the waist or shoulders to support the body (so that it only looks like you're hanging by your neck). This is for Halloween. I've seen it in a couple of movies. Does anyone know how to do this?

As an atheist, I notice the flaws in religious arguments more than in atheist ones. So I'm wondering if anyone can give an example of circular reasoning that atheists commonly employ?
