I have come to the conclusion that some R&S atheists don't merely "not believe" that God exists. It seems that many of you have made the conscious decision that regardless of whether or not there actually is a God, you reject Him. Do you feel that is an accurate statement?

I am a worship leader at our church, and this upcoming Sunday we are expecting an excellent turn out. I need some ideas or recommendations on songs to sing, and ways to let the worship flow so everybody can truly feel the anointing of Jesus Christ. I am fairly new to leading worship, and this is my first 'big' Sunday if you know what I mean. Please help me with any possible recommendations at all. It will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, and God Bless!!!!

Did you know that the Hail Mary prayer is totally Bible based?

"Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.
Blessed are thou among women, and blessed id the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, mother of God,
pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen"

Lets break it down:
1) Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee (direct quote from scripture: Luke 1:28)
2) Blessed are thou among women, and blessed id the fruit of thy womb, Jesus (direct quote from scripture: Luke 1:42)
3) Holy Mary, mother of God (Christ is God incarnete, and since Mary bore God in her womb she is rightly called the Mother of God: "Theotokos", or "God-bearer". Remeber what Elizabeth said: "And how has it happened to me, that the mother of my Lord would come to me?" Luke 1:43)
4) pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen (Revelation 5:8 shows that the saints in heaven do actively intercede for us, and. ....

God may be a plug in most of your eyes, yet wheres your plug? I like how you dismiss all accounts of a God yet you have no plug?

1. Something can't come from nothing
2. Your thermodynamics theory is flawed because it still does not explain what came before the big bang or why it happened? Yes I know people, energy is forever existing...IN THIS universe, yet the universe began to exist, therefore, so did matter and energy. So lets throw that one out.
3. Infinite values do not exist in this reality, only in mathematics are they apparant, not in matter.
4. And God is infinite I know I know people, so your typical rebuttal sounds like, well if there is no infinite values then how does God exist. Again, God is not of this or created in this universe therefore the laws that it abides by dont apply since God is both within and without the bounds of space and time.

All I want is an answer, I gave mine, God. I want yours thats all. If there is no God then how do you exist?

Am I the only person that gets bothered when people say Xmas instead of Christmas? I mean seriously what exactly are people celebrating when they celebrate "xmas" just a time of year where people get presents? I think people are forgeting the reason that we have this holiday. Christ is the reason for the seasn, and I wish people would realize this and stop saying Xmas. I'm sorry it just annoys me. Does this annoy you too? And if you're not a christian and you celebrate Christmas, why do you do that? explain please.

Weather your a believer, an Athiest or Agnostic. Watch this video its only 10 minutes long.

Tell me what you thought of it.

Oh and please don't bother respond if you don't have the patients to spend 10 minutes watching it, because that completly defeats the entire purpose of answering the question.

Other than that all comments welcome, positive or negitiave. Thank you.

I see all kinds of questions asking why atheists are here if we're not religious or spiritual.

But see I don't answer questions about Christianity or anything. I only ask questions that are directly addressed to atheists, or maybe once in awhile a fun or goofy one that has nothing to do with religion but is in this section.

So if there were no questions to atheists I wouldn't be here.

So if you don't want me here why do you keep asking me questions??

I would like to know what the official stance is within the Jewish community (both Orthodox and conservative), as far as attending Christmas parties is concerned? Is it considered 'taboo' or is it perfectly fine?

Reason I'm asking: yesterday a Buddhist answerer mentioned how Buddha would sometimes not even answer a question because giving any answer would lead people even further astray from the dharma.

I wonder if this applies to us Christians too. Sometimes I run across a question that is so freakin OFF in its very premise. ("If God is all-powerful, can he do something that he can't do while he's not not-doing it?") I wrestle with whether or not I should answer it just to shed, I hope, a little ray of Light in the dark thorny tangle.

What serves a vastly far-afield, off-base person better? Giving an answer he isn't ready for and trusting the Holy Spirit will make it clear to him later ... or not answering at all, letting him work it out on his own, trusting the Holy Spirit to guide him?
