Religion & Spirituality - 19 June 2006

What if tomorrow, say between 10 am and 12pm central time, we reverse our positions.

I and fellow no creationists were to argue for a literal interpretation of the Genesis and the Bible, asking questions as real believers in Jesus,

and what if those of you who believe in Jesus and don't believe in evolution were to ask questions from the perspective of an evolutionist who just doesn't get Jesus.

I mean this sincerely, what if we did that, honestly, a serious effort, not a comical one, to put ourselves in the shoes of "the other side".

And what if we used all our mental powers and spiritual powers to be that other person we come here and look forward to seeing and knowing they will ask a question about "the other side"

What would happen if jim_darwin asked "Doesn't this prove Jesus" or if Don S or mainworry asked "Doesn't this prove evolution"

What do you think would happen if this happened

Please post your examples of contradictions in the bible. I don't understand why people believe in it word for word when in one place it contradicts another. Obviously, one of them has to be wrong.

People say evolution disproves god and i don't understand how it does, because the only thing i can conclude is that it disproves adam and eve, and I am Roman Catholic and i was always taught that bible stories were meant for they message not true fact, so how does e3volution disprove god?

why do people get so offended when you ask religious questions on here? who said im judging or saying i'm right just because i ask. it seems to me,(and this is me judging now) that you would not be so upset if you were confident that you were right. its possible that you question yourself if you are so emotional about a subject you seem to be so sure about.

I am just wondering how would you explain this story if you don't believe in God, miracles, or anything wonderful that he does in our lives. ( Please remember that he does not heal everyone and everyone has their own time to go be with the Lord, or not. That is part of his plan. Everyone has to die at some point. So please don't say, then why doesn't he heal everyone.)
Here is my story-
When I was little my mom had MS and was about to die. She could no longer walk, or do anything for herself. My dad and her best friend came and got her from the hospital and took her to a revival. That night she went to the alter and she was healed. No lie, she got up and walked and then ran around the building. She went back to the Dr.'s and they could find absolutely nothing wrong with her. She has never had another problem or anything to do with MS again. Explain that if there is no God. It has been almost 30 years.

They are a business with operating expenditures and income. The product they are purveying is immaterial but so is what we pay psychologists and psychiatrists for, as well as paying to listen to 'motivational speakers'....... business is business, isn't it?

Most people accept everything they hear from scientists as strict facts. It does not even occur to them that scientists may also have various philosophical or ideological prejudices. However, it is a common misconception; for example, some evolutionary scientists impose their prejudices and philosophical views on the public under the guise of science. For instance, although they are aware that random events do not cause anything other than irregularity and confusion, they still claim that the marvellous order, plan, and design, seen both in the universe and in living organisms, arose by chance.

Canada, last summer joined several other countries in approving and legalizing Same-Sex-Marriage. I'd ask the relegious right and left to avoid references to scripture as this was a political move, not a relegious one. Avoid slandering please, as it realy shows one's stupidity and there will be people out there interested in reading the responcess. Let's keep this clean...my thanks in Advance!!

According to the Bible, hell is supposed to be this place where sinners are tortured with fire and brimstone, and a second death is by a lake of fire. Well, what if someone actually likes torture, fiery lakes and gnashing teeth, would it still be hell?

Is there also a hell specifically for masochists?

I mean, if we're supposed to take the Bible as the infallible word of God, then there is only one hell, correct?

Hey People !
Holy NARUQ is the most peaceful book on the earth. Most tolerant. It is the final book sent down from our god for entire humankind. We the followers of Holy NARUQ only fight against muslims if they attack us first. Only in Self-Defence.

Muslims have to pay us protection tax as our NARUQ's god mentioned in Holy NARUQ.

Holy NARUQ 9:29 ¡°Fight those muslims until they all surrender, paying the protective tax in submission.¡±
Holy NARUQ 8:39 ¡°Fight muslims until all opposition ends and all muslims submit to NARUQ's god.¡±

We will fight until all musilms submit to NARUQ's god.

Holy NARUQ 8:39 ¡°So fight muslims until there is no more Islam and all muslims submit to the religion of NARUQ alone."
Holy NARUQ 2:193 ¡°Fight muslims until there is no more Islam and religion is only for NARUQ's god."

Holy NARUQ 4:94 ¡°NARUQ Believers, when you go abroad to fight wars in NARUQ's god's Cause against muslims, investigate carefully, and say not to anyone who gre
