Mostly based upon basic astronomy, and astrology.. they've just turned the zodiac into a fable is all they have done. What's the most important thing in the zodiac? The SUN of course, same as Christianity except they've turned it into the son.

Seriously people, buy a clue. This is why the church persecuted people like Galileo, he was an astronomer, and he figured the scam out. It's not just Christianity, it's every religion. I was just wondering if you all knew this?

Let me get this straight: Because I can't prove that there's nobody stalking me with a sniper rifle, that's reason enough to wear a Kevlar jacket and helmet everywhere I go?

THAT'S the way to decide what you're going to believe -- on the basis of unfounded paranoid fantasy?

I know some people are that good people, but they do not have a relationship with Jesus.

They say they have no reason to believe in God. This makes me sad. I know that is their decision and I do not preach to them. I just try to be a good example, but it does trouble me.

I believe the only way to avoid Hell is to be a Christian. If you do not accept Jesus, then His sacrifice is in vain.

I know God wants these people to believe, but they set up a mental roadblock. One of my friends said there is no scientific evidence to be a Christian over any other religion. He is missing the point. You have to have faith. Scientific evidence only gets you so far. For one thing, science is always changing and can only teach us so much. You need to use your heart to decide the real truth and the Holy Spirit will let you know for a fact that Jesus is your Savior.

It troubles me to know people that have turned away from God. Has anyone else had friends like this?

My pastor just said that we should try to put our hearts into unison with jesus christ. But i thought that, that could never happen because jesus christ is too pure, which would mean that we will have our limits as to how close we can be with jesus christ. What are those limits?

I remember learning in Sunday school that each gift represented something that God has given us...

I know that the partridge in the pear tree is Jesus on the cross... and the 2 Turtle doves are the old and new testament, and the 4 calling birds are the 4 gospels. But I can't remember anything else. Does anyone here know? Thank you!

"No baby is innocent" with their silly beliefs, as if.

Where's the logic? Baby = New = didn't do anything wrong = sinner because of "original sin" some 2000 year old crap probably used to justify murdering babies in those times.

In my logical world, Babies are innocent, pure, and ANY loving god would judge them on what THEY do and not what some other people did how ever many years ago... I'm sorry your god hasn't got a big enough brain to understand that we are different people and so we don't act on behalf of innocent people.

"Original sin" what a load of crap.

Their reaction to the school teacher that allowed kids to name a teddy bear an 'improper name'.

This is from Yahoo News:

"Concern for the teacher's safety grew Friday after thousands of Sudanese, many armed with clubs and swords and beating drums, burned pictures of her and demanded her execution at a rally in Khartoum."

and have a bunch of them removed? Grrr! I think I know who it is too. Anyhow, is this a way to get someones user name booted for good on here? Enough questions removed and then you are gone?

I hear alot about it on this section, so Im sure one of you knows out there. I had to hide everything and lose all my fans to protect my account. If a bunch of deleted questions will not get me booted, Ill open my fans back and up; any ideas on the best way to handle it? Thanks :)

I have seen Christians write:

1. "The fires in California are god's punishment for gay marriage."

2. "Aids is god's punishment for homosexuals."

3. "Menopause is punishment for sin."

4. "Belief in evolution sends thousands to hell everyday."

5. "Schizophrenia is demon possession."



This is Christianity. Do you want any part of it?

- when Christians keep saying that you will go to hell just because you don't embrace Jesus, what's your favourite and most witty response?!

The cleverest or most original/funny line gets 'best answer'!

Do you thank them? If not, do they get mad? Then, what do you say? Also, do you tell acquaintances to abandon the practice with you? Do they get offended? I refuse to thank people for something I didn't ask for and don't particularly like.
