"And it came to pass, that at midnight the LORD smote all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh that sat on his throne unto the firstborn of the captive that [was] in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of cattle." Exodus 12:29-30

Is sex the god of this earth? Do people worship sex more than anything else? Why is porn a billion dollar industry? Prostitution too. Why are the latest t.v. skanks more well known than the teachings of Jesus Christ? Why are we bombarded with sexual images from all directions. Is sex the goddess of the world?

You must be a Christian?

I just saw this comment, and it made me shake my head...

"A christian is someone who believes in God. It's not a religion."

This was presumably in response to a comment from me that you can believe in God (or Gods, etc.) and not be a Christian.

Was wondering what others think of this?

I mean, is it just my imagination, or have I seen a whole lot of people here that believe in a deity and are not Christian?

Nothing against Christians... in fact, I've never heard of a Christian defining Christianity in this way before... I certainly never did.

It's not like they did anything except have no religion, and I noticed on this website that people ridicule atheists and calling them names.
No, i'm telling you whether I believe in God or not. I'm just curious how other people think on the issue of religion.

Do you know that you will overcome all hard times and all troubles to entrance into everlasting by doing daily penances?
Did you know that the Blessed Mother told a saint that the best penances are in what God gives you such and any type of illnesses and sufferings? That's true.
Did you know that a priest is better to give you a daily fruitful penances than you to created up one? Yup that's true!

The nerve of them! Who do they think they are??? They did all of those apprehensible things just to make some money and now look at em'. Most of their Empires are ashes. Most of their family lines have ended. You could count all of the ones that have statues and bridges and buildings and still have a few toes left!! What kind of crap is that??

So, hey, listen. Ya got kids? What if I tolt you there was a way you and me could die knowing that OUR kids don't think so lowly of us when it's OUR time to pass on? What if I told you the you and me could start something that would totally reverse all of the damage that has been done to the Human condition by people that have only been concerned with money and control that has'd appeared to be worth attaining for the past few thousand years?? What if I told you and me'd be decorated world heroes for starting this thing??

What if I told you that the plan sounds a lot like the plan outlined in the Bible?

Is there any NON-Christians on here who "actually" understand the concept of

"LOVE THE SINNER, HATE THE SIN"?

Before you condemn it, you really should understand it...

How does loving someone imply you love 'everything' about them???

Isn't it possible to love someone, without completely adoring every little habit, behavior, etc. that they have?

Why is this so impossible for so many to "understand"

Please enlighten me WHY it is so difficult to understand this concept.

For the past 17 months , Wafa’a Costantine , Maria Abdullah Zaki, Marian Makram Ayyad , and Teresa Ibrahim , have been detained in a prison-like place , isolated from the outside world and prevented from contacting the media..

till the moment , the world doesn't know anything about them, where is the freedom that christians and the church are talking about?where are the human rights that America wants to apply them all over the world,how could the church deal with such a situation in such a rude and aggressive way implying how much do they hate "islam" which they accused it of being a terror religion, if you really think that every human being in the world has the right to embrace the religion s/he thinks is the best, then you need to tell your opinion and support the freedom of these women who chose Islam as a religion but their church has detained them.
