and no longer faith?

By evidence I mean quantifiable and reproducible facts.

What happens when faith turns into a fact?

i tend to dissagree....for example, visit your local park, take plastic carrier bag, place in pond, wait 5 minutes...bag should now be full of crabs and frogs.
take said bag and contents home, cook , then eat.......tadaaaaaaaa..... one free meal,,,

The same logic can also be applied to ...Pigeons in a plaza ,Squrrels up a drain pipe, if your australian....kangarooos......but for these animals you must have a spring in your step in order to catch them.... What other meals can you get for free?> I urge u to thinbk long and hard b4 answering this question....put your feet up , have a think ..Sarcastic comments are not welcome on this post....
No points to the best answer......:-)

I am doing an argument that the Episcapalian Chruch is not the closest church to the catholic faith. I can not, however, say the orthodox or Anglican is. Is there any way I can argue this? And if it is not, as my professor proclaims, then who is?

I want to help but also want to be certain my money goes for the right cause. By charities I don't mean an individual either.
Sorry.

November is Missions Month in many evangelical churches, and so I am attributing the large number of "born again" related questions to this fact. (Yes, I realize that October is another popular month for this designation.)

And so my question is this: If I don't agree with your belief that the *manner* in which God gives us salvation is by calling us to the sinner's prayer and a born-again experience, am I just as unsaved as a person who denies the Gospel?

And if not, then why are we being targeted?

I was learning about the story of Mohammed this morning in class. I was told he was told by the Angel Gabrielleto write down the Quran, and that he was to be a prophet.

Joseph Smith wrote down the Momon bible, and considered himself a phophet as well.

Both religions marry multiple wives, or have in the past. And both are rather strict with their moral principles.

Comments?

In most churchs they give Peter all the honor and they demonize Judas.If it were
upto peter Jesus would have never died in the 1st place.Jesus' sole purpose
was to die and to rise again with all power. Judas helped him fulfill that
purpose by betraying him.Had Judas not done it Jesus would have found somone else who would have and they would be demonizing someone else.
Judas had to do it and I believe he has a favored place with god because he was willing to do it.Jesus even called Judas friend and Peter a demon wich speaks volumes to me. Often times we have many nay sayers and 1 person who supports us and pushes us to be better and to do better.A lot of times when we reach our goals in life the naysayers jump on the band wagon and we forget the very people who helped us to begin with.I don't believe Jesus forgot what judas did to help him and I believe the body at large is ignorant of this fact.

I think it's possible that some people rely on faith and others rely on reason, and evidence... and it may be genetic. If that is true, then two atheists are more likely to raise an atheist child (genetically). And likewise, a Christian nation will produce religious children - generation after generation - because of genetics. Also, if survival in America depends in part on a person's religious (or non-religious) affiliation, then evolution would explain why 85-90% of our country believe in God.

Since the original Catholic and Orthodox Christians were "unsaved," according to puritanical fundamentalists, did Christianity disappear from the planet for 1500 years? If not, please point out any evidence of the writings or leadership of faith-alone, Bible-only Christians during the first 1500 years Anno Domini.

The plural form of the word 'atheist' is 'atheists'.

All together now "atheists."

Okay so I'm a little grumpy and easily irritated this morning and the constant misspelling was annoying me...so I just thought I'd clear that up.

Why is it that this word is so commonly misspelled?
