Bill O'Reilly was once again talking about the gay parade in San Francisco, where the gays walked into a church and made spectacles of themselves, and took communion. Bill was really upset that the church has not taken action against this sort of thing, what do YOU think about all this ???

The content of the bible would get a movie a rating of R and children would not be allowed to see it.

If it was a CD with this type of content, it would be required to be labeled as violent and sexually explicit and children would not be allowed to buy it.

All of these labels are intended to keep content like this away from children and yet they force children to read this violent and sexually explicit text at a very young impressionable age.

Sometimes I think so and other times I wonder; because of how people don't like to change. But, if we are really capable of change; then should we be more accepting of it? What are you thoughts of this truth?

And do you think it'll be anything like that 1993 movie starring Emilio Estevez? You know, the Might Duck man himself. And I could yell out the Breakfast Clubbers name! I'd be like, "Emiiilllliiiioooooooooooo!"

If there is no God, if there is no consequence for your actions, what is supposed to keep you from doing bad things?

If you know you CAN'T get caught and you will NEVER receive punishment for something, why not do whatever you want?

You need God in order to have absolute morality. You need the Bible. These are the ultimate sources of what is good.

Do you agree?

Ive read so many people comparing Christianity to Catholics. And to enlighten the subject: Catholics not = to Christians. Do i need to say it 653,451 times?

To be a Christian, you need to be Kind, Respectful, Honest, Trustworthy, Brave, Industrious, Patient, the list could go on forever. AND you must fit ALL of those to be a Christian, not to mention you should learn from your mistakes and strive to improve. Also, no human has the right to edit the Bible. if you edit it, you're breaking the law.

Now, does the Catholic Church have at least ONE of those? History tells us otherwise, therefore: Catholics not = to Christians.

So please, don't use the Cath.Church(which just "pretends" to be true) or any other pretentious, false church to symbolize Christianity, cuz they aren't and we have proof of it in the history books.

To those who ask, im not biased, because i have evidence.

Agree with my opinion towards people who say Christianity = Catholics?

please, no pottymouths okay.

Christians of all denominations, protestant and catholic; jews and muslims. All descedants of the children of Abraham, or Ibrahim if you prefer. All with the same origins. All with the same lineage. All with the same monotheistic deity. Yet, sadly unable to peacefully co-exist because all their leaders want to recognize is their petty differences.

in the same fashion.. Why the theatrics of the Joseph and Mary issue? Apparently Adam was of human species even though he was made out of clay/dirt..so if God wanted another human to sacrafice why not do it the same way?

And, if these events and people were "make-believe", why did the people of Jesus' day feel convicted when He spoke of them?

Here are a few references:
"And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did?" (Luke 9:54).

"Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these." (Luke 12:27).

"And as touching the dead, that they rise: have ye not read in the book of Moses, how in the bush God spake unto him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob." (Mark 12:26).

"And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up." (John 3:14).

"Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was?" (John 7:42).

That's funny since the Catholics and the Eastern Orthodox used to be the same thing until an even divide in the 11th Century, which makes the latter equally old.
But what's even BETTER is that there were Gnostic, Arian and probably a dozen other varieties of Christianity running around in the first couple centures before the Catholic/Orthodox variety became dominant.
And guess what: becoming dominant doesn't make you right.

(1). Is the doctrine of "eternal torment" a big factor? (2). Would you be more open to a branch of Christianity that doesn't believe in it?
