How many times have you heard Wh*tney Ho*ston say how grateful she is for the gift God has given to her (referring to her voice). Yet she has managed to completely destroy it by using "crack". Do I need to mention how many "Christian" hollywood stars smoke and drink?

Surprisingly enough, I'm an Atheist and I neither smoke nor drink.

As recently as the 1940's the media and politicians would not even acknowledge the very existence of gay people. In the 1950' it was still a tabu to talk about it.

But now, several decades later, we are close to complete equality of gay people. Why is the mainstream society becoming more and more liberal. Why are conservatives losing their fight? Could it be that God is on the side of gays and liberals?

but that is exactly what christians do, they kneel before the cross of jesus christ and worship him. Am i wrong in saying that God doesnt want you to kneel to any man made object.

Everytime the subject is brought up at home or at school. I constantly get bashed for my thoughts on the subject at hand, for example I believe the people don't choose to be gay or straight, you're born that way, but people automatically assume it's a choice, and when I state an opposition to something they've said, they automatically assume i'm gay. What gives?

I mean, I was SAVED. I said the little Billy Graham prayer. But I didn't do anything worthwhile my whole life. I'm going to heaven?

I think not. Paul doesn't say works are unneccessary. Quite the opposite.
Ephesians 2:8-10
For it is by grace you have been saved through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works so that no one can boast. For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

And if by grace, then it is no longer by works; if it were, grace would no longer be grace. (Rom 11:6)

We are saved by grace alone, through faith that works

Paul cannot be accused of contradicting James anymore.

You see that a person is justified by what he does and not by faith alone. (James 2:24)

Thoughts?

See, i have met so many christians(and Muslims) who think we can abuse the earth and kill all the animals because they believe that god will help them if they need it. How does this backwards sort of thinking still exist?

Christians when you pray to your g-d, what is in your mind your g-d look like? Do you have the same g-d's face in your mind or differents g-d.

If you can imagine your g-d look like, then it is a creation of you, isn't it.


peace

The evolutionists keep harping on our DNA and genetics that are common to animals. God made man a body that is similar to primates, but man is not a primate even though his body is similar.. and man did not come from primates or primates from man.
Man has a human soul and spirit and primates don't. Why can't evolutionists understand that. The debate is not about the body, but the soul and spirit..
Why do they keep repeating DNA and genetics thinking that it explains that man came from monkeys..

I'm serious, so this is a sincere question.

Which comes first and foremost, God or family, specifically your children?

Okay. Well, I'm 17 and I think it's time I get my patriarchal blessing. The thing is, I don't want other people to be there. I'm from a family of seven. I'm the last to get my blessing and my parents have been to all of my brothers' and sisters' blessings. I don't want them there. Can I just talk to my bishop and get it all approved and then just not tell my parents I'm getting it? I don't know if they would be hurt if they didn't get to hear it or not. Basically, my question is: is it bad not to have my parents there if I don't want them to be?
