Now I see more and more blacks being racists to other groups. And when there's just a hint of racism against blacks, you wouldn't hear the last of them crying out, being loud etc. But when they are racist towards others, the public black leaders wouldn't be publicly loud and criticize their own people for being racists. Meanwhile, the whites are sitting on the sidelines, being tossed around by black anti-racism public spokes leaders by being politically correct, trying to please every other race so they don't step on any toes and get shouted at and have black hypocritical public figures be in their faces.

Remember that Jesus once walked on this earth as a human for people to witness.

Ofcourse He performed all kinds of miracles to claim Himself as God. He even rose from death and ascended to heaven before the very presence of humans.

What I am saying is that people back then had the privilage to witness actual facts. They saw Jesus and knew for certain that Jesus was God with all the miracles. Therefore they needed no faith and got a free pass to heaven.

Unlike modern people that can only rely on blind faith to believe in Jesus. As you can see, there are countless unbelievers all around the world. No one would choose to refuse Jesus if they actually had the privilage to witness Him like ancient people.

The fact that there are so many unbelievers goes to show that we are underprivileged.

Does this make Jesus biased?

Each have something i like and something i do not like. Japanese is a simple language in-terms of pitch, but has many unusual kanji to learn. Chinese is simple gramatically and has no real conjugations, but has over 10,000 kanji. French has lots of latin roots, but is annoying as hell to pronounce. Which one should i learn? This is just for recreation and not necessarily for daily life use.

I know some Christians believe the Theory of Evolution and dismiss ID.

Can a Christian believe that humans are descendants of apes and still be a Christian?

I speak english, obviously, can stumble along in French, read it much better than I speak or understand it spoken to me. I can get by in Mandarin fairly well. I know a few words in Spanish but wouldnt say I can speak it. I used to understand quite a bit of Italian, my friends and neighbours in the old neighbourhood were Italian.

I always wanted to learn Norwegian, but the next language I learn will be Japanese.

What does Mathew 17:21 say in your Bible?

"Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting." Matthew 17:21 KJV.
This is a very important procedure that Christians would have to address in certain situations.This spirit is only driven out of a person by fasting and praying.There is no other way for it to be done, so I think all would realize how important this would be.

"My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children." Hosea 4:6

A friend of mine was talking about joining the FCA at school. The FCA, as most probably know, stands for the Fellowship of Christian Athletes.

Why is that there doesn't seem to be a Fellowship of Buddhist Athletes, or Muslim or Hindu or any other religion? Maybe I've overlooked it, but these organizations don't seem to exist.

Do you think this is fair? I know that most people are Christian, but does that excuse that fact that athletes of other religions cannot be a part of an official club that encourages their faith too?

I dont understand how atheists can be satinists if we dont even believe in your religion. Religion is a complex system of corruption and lies used to anipulate people. Also the bible contradicts itself in many ways. It says its a sin to kill but your allowed to kill someone thats against your religion. This person is a religious nut and has no right to call atheists satinists.

I am defining tolerance as follows:
Someone who is religiously tolerant has their religious or spiritual beliefs (or lack there of), and accepts the fact that other people may have different beliefs. A religiously tolerant person practices their beliefs but does not try to recruit others and does not condemn others for not sharing in those beliefs. Why is this wrong?

So I am an atheist and do celebrate Christmas. Earlier this year I told my mom strait up that I do not believe in god, and well, I have a feeling she just believes that this is a phase. Well anyways, I do celebrate Christmas, but not for the celebration of Christ's birth, just as a celebration of family and togetherness. As a family, we have a Christmas tree, wreaths, lights, etcetera, and I am the one setting most of it up. I personally love that time of year and celebrate it well. The dilemma I am running into is what to tell my mom/family if they tell me that I am a hypocrite for celebrating Christmas and not believing in god. When I try to tell them that I do it to celebrate family, togetherness, etcetera, they just refer back to "but the holiday is a celebration of Jesus ...." Any help here from my fellow atheists? By the way, I'm 17 if that helps.

During world history classes, we were studying Christianity and will do so again in two days. Our history teacher criticized God and the Bible at times throughout the lesson, and I fear this may have hurt the faith of some of my fellow classmates. He indicates mostly how the Bible contradicts itself, and that the Holy Spirit would not have botched its work. Are there any counterarguments to this? Thank you for your help.
