I earned a Ph.D. in a so-called "soft science". Outside of a college/university environment, I think addressing me as "professor" is as unnecessary as a civilian addressing a military person by their armed forced title. I wouldn't mind being addressed as "Dr.", but I prefer to be called by my first name, or "Mrs." or "Ms.". I think "Professor" is appropriate if I'm your college teacher. My mother is having a cow over this. I don't get it. I just prefer to reserve the title "Dr." for physicians. Am I the only one who feels this way?

God says, Fine, we will see.

Satan replies, and the souls, do I get to keep them in hell?

God says back : I wouldnt lie.


so then satan pops up in front of you, and challenges you to convert three christians to satanism before the day is over, or else he will send your whole families souls to hell for eternity.

Would you do it?

Or... would you do nothing and simple hope your schizophrenic?


this question is for theists.

both in the baptist temple and the LDS stadium i could see the pollution of poisons in the air. Such is NOT the spirit of God.

can anyone defend their use of narcotics in the air as the rightousness of God.

is this the spirit of the lord? or was he speaking like peter did when jesus rebuked the spirit of satan?
i dont care what people say about defending the bishop but i do know what what in my heart. i know i was working according to the spirit that was within me and total sincerity.

so because of what the bishop said to me, i stopped going to church on fast and testimony. eventually it was more evil for me to go church than to suffer sleep deprivation.

Has anyone ever actually studied the historical accounts of this event? If so what sources are available, outside of the bible? What did you decide fact or fiction. Please only people that have actually taken the time to do this, no opinions please

I have been aChristian for 8 years now and I have asked God to fill me with the Holy Spirit on many occasions and I feel He has done so.At the same time I have read in the bible the proof of receiving the Holy Spirit is speaking in tongues and I have read books on this as well.I have prayed to recieve this gift and nothing has happened.
My question is ,How did you receive this gift ?
Is it a requirement of God in order to be accepted into Heaven?
Why would most everyone in my family be able to do this but me?
Any help in this area would be very much appreciated.

Read this. Everyone says it was Satan's doing, and that i shouldn't blame God.
If Satan can make people do bad things, but God can't make them do Good. Doesn't that mean that Satan's power is stronger?

This question I believe warrants discussion because the bases of the Christian's faith hangs upon this one factor.

In Deuteronomy 24:16, it clearly states children has to pay for their own sins and not the sins of their parents, so why is it that we are sinners because of the sins of Adam and Eve?

Deuteronomy 24:16 The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin.

So I was flipping through the AM radio on the way to my friends house and I happened upon the Rosary being chanted on the Catholic radio station. After the Hail Marys they say this prayer which seemed to be saying that Mary was resurrected; her body and soul! And that she sits in the judgement seat along with Christ. Is this true? Do Catholics believe that Mary's body as well as her soul left the Earth; just like Jesus' had? I know Catholics believe her to be sinless like Jesus...but I hadnt heard of the resurrection like Jesus. Did I mishear? I did have my two kids in the car who are 2 and under, so I might have gotten a bit distracted. Serious answers only, please.

Does having a nativity set up with little people and baby Jesus constitute idolatry?

How is that different from having a statue in one's house of worship?
