I mean do Christians in any other country in the world denounce Evolution? Anywhere else, do they view as sending money in to TV shows as a means of getting closer to God? Come on show me a fundamentalist Christian from any other country, I challenge you!

I heard that fossils are dated by the layers they are found in,but the layers are dated by the fossils found in them;if this is true isn't it circular reasoning??
Can you help clear this up for me?
thanks for your answers

Wouldn't it be the most beautiful and elegant poetry imaginable? Wouldn't its divine authorship be obvious just from the quality of the text? Wouldn't it far surpass the greatest human poetry?

Now compare that ideal to the leaden prose of the Bible and Qu'ran. There are some works of poetry which instantly move anyone who reads them. When I read these 'holy' books, I'm often repulsed.

Your thoughts?

If God came behind an atheist ans slap him upside the head, he will say he doesn't exist, if God slaps him upside the head again, he will say, ok, I give.

If god came behind an agnostic and slap him behind the head, he will say, that might be God but not sure. If God slaps him again, he will say, that might have been God but I'm not 100% sure...

In my 25 years as a Latter-Day saint I have heard people say all kinds of crazy things that they have read about my church. Every thing from space ships to animal sacrifice none of it true and yet they believe it. Maybe they should go to the source.

Christians, Atheists, Muslims and all in between what do you think

Read the 13 commandments below and please answer the questions addressed to you. Please indicate if you are a Christian, or Atheist, Muslim, or belong to any other beliefs or persuations. )

Christians: What if someone lives by these commandments but do not believe that Christ is God, will he be saved? Or, will he be condemned by Christ ?

Atheists: These commandments are derived from the bible, a book you consider outdated and full of fiction, therefore these commandments are worthless guides for human conduct?

Muslims: These commandments are not in the Koran, therefore these must be evil and worthless guides for human conduct ?

For the rest: Should these be posted or not in public places to remind us all that there are still basic rules that govern us all ?

The Thirteen (13) Commandments

1, Love your neighbor as you love yourself, and do for others what you want them to do to you.

most people think they are "trying to be something theyre not" but it is still english and it is the original way of pronouncing things. You wouldnt speak chinese like they do in non-chinese country would you? It would be wrong to speak english with a german accent, but english with an english accent, i dont think it is something to get angry at people.

If you are Christians who don't believe in the literal truth of the whole Bible do you believe it is all true but some is metaphor, analogy or topology. And it was because they used different styles of writing in ancient times. Also much of the apparent contradictions could be copyists errors or different translations.

In 1Corinthians 14: 34-35, St. Paul says:

"Let women be silent in the churches, for they are not permitted to speak; but let them be in subjection, just as the Law says. If they want to learn anything, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is shameful for a woman to speak in church."

Is this the divinely-inspired word of God?

How about we put Santa on the cross and Jesus in the sleigh with all the toys and other gifts. Sorry if I offended anyone, but that seems about the only way to get Jesus back into Christmas. Agree?????????

This will sound made-up but I remember entering my body from a third-person point of view when I was 2 or 3 years old. I floated down from the ceiling and put my soul into my body, and then attained first-person view. I don't have an official religion, but I was wondering what you guys thought about "transferring" souls. Once again, the latter story is not a lie, it could have been a dream, but man was it REAL.

I know that some busy bodies want to report this question. I know that you have no life. But, for those that this has happened to, it means something. So, you no good pieces of whatever, go whatever yourself.
