Don't people realize that Erasmus Darwin's theory of evolution was mostly speculation?

A reading of his 1796 book Zoönomia, which explained his theory of evolution, makes it obvious that he had very little evidence to support his theory.

When we pray for an answer to something. When we ask God to show us what we need to do. How do we know for sure it is God's answer? Can we be sure it is God's will and not our desires?

I consider myself and true dedicated catholic. but lately i have been thinking. in order to be a true catholic do you have to agree with EVERYTHING the bible says? I believe in most things but how it says being gay is a sin? i dont agree with that. god made them that way so how can it still be a sin. they didnt just wake up one day and say "i think i am going to be gay"

1. Natural selection favors genes that improve capacity for survival and reproduction.

2. Genetic drift is the random sampling of a generation's genes during reproduction, causing random changes in the frequency of alleles.

3. Gene flow is the transfer of genes within and between populations.

The church is in a town of 7000. It is currently running about 30 people...mostly older. It seats about 80 but has never been more than sixty. It currently brings in enough to pay the pastor and the electric bill. No projector...only a piano and organ, currently sings almost all hymns. You are the new pastor, what do you do?

And we are talking about in total numbers and per-capita. Why does mass starvation continue to go underreported in this modern age of fast food convenience? What implications does this have for humanity as the process of desertification increases while the population grows.

Okay, I previously asked if you would be comfortable with the statement "Are you saved by God's Graciousness Alone?" Some answered "yes" but usually with the qualification that the conversion has to be real as demonstrated by "works."

Others answered "no" but with qualifications also that seemed to suggest essentially the same thing.

In both cases, there was still some discomfort with the way I worded the question. Pinkadot in particular seemed very concerned that it might suggest that person could be saved without actually repenting, similar to resurrection.

So now let me ask you a set of far more pointed questions.
Mormons are often accused by other Christians of believing that you merrit salvation through your works. So let me test that stereotype by asking Mormons to answer the following questions. Please *answer the question* and *don't give pat answers* to avoid answering the questions. Feel free to follow up with explanations.

I will put the questions in the detail

Please DO NOT respond to this question until you have READ these Scriptures. Pull out your Bible before you let your emmotions flow. Please respectful comments, only!

Acts 2:38, Acts 18:8, 25-26.

Acts 19:2 says, he said to them, "DID YOU RECEIVE THE HOLY SPIRIT WHEN YOU BELIEVED?"

Acts:19:1-23.

The WAY is the example that was set by the disciples, it was not conjured up by man. Peter was given the keys and he told everyone what they must do in Acts 2:38. After they heard Peter speak they said, "WHAT MUST WE DO?"

Muhammed claimed that an Angel visited him and told him to write and he founded Islam?

Ellen G. White claims she had vision by 3 angels and she founded the Seventh-Day Adventist religion?

Charles T. Russel founded the Jehovah Witnesses?

Charles Wesley founded the Methodist faith?

Joseph Smith founded the Mormon faith?

David Koresh founded the Branch Dividians?

New Age founded by Alice Bailey?

Etc.?
