"The Bible doesn't teach how the heavens go, but how to go to heaven."

I saw this online somewhere and its correct that science teaches about our reality, but the Bible teaches how to live and return to God.

If human reason, intelligence, and rationality are the guiding lights of atheistic living and what is needed to make humanity better, and history shows that humans who believed they were reasonable, intelligent, and rational have done some of the most idiotic(building New Orleans on a swamp), irrational (creating and promoting cigarettes as healthy and cool), and immoral to humanity(slavery, Japanese prison camps) acts in Earth's history. Isn't the believe in the reason and rationale of humans dispite the piles of evidence to suggestion how poor these things are in humans an act of faith. Isn't faith and act of religion? Isn't religion a quality of a non-atheist? So how can there be a true atheist?

Can't we just admit to the fact that being a fundamentalist means that we are following what was followed before our time and living with the concepts and morals that our fathers before us had??

Genesis 3:19 (Whole Chapter)
By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return."

What would be the big damn deal if this Heaven place did exist.

God: "Well Adam, you ate from the tree and now I have to punish you so you have to move out."

Adam: "Ah, Man!"

God: "Don't worry about it though, because now you get to die come and live with me in my house with the angels instead of tilling the ground and taking care of the animals for all eternity."

What kind of punishment is that?

There is no such thing as a Christian and another creature called a born-again Christian. A Christian is a Christian. A Christian is defined by the Bible and not politics, organizations or anything else. A Christian is someone who believes in the Jesus described in the Bible and trust in him through faith as their Lord and Savior.

I know no one really believes the above but, when it was written, they really did believe it.

However, if earth took 6 days, and there are several planets in our solar system. Lets say each took 1 day cos no life etc. then lets say our solar system took around 2 weeks to create. There are over 3 Billion stars in our Milky way galaxy. lets say that no other star has any planets. (Just for arguments sake.)
There billions of galaxies, and billions yet again of clustyers, and billions yet again of super clusters.
All this creation takes longer than the life of the universe as we know from the Big Bang, which even the vaticans own astomomers believe.

Where did the maths go wrong.

Bear with me, this will take some explanation.

The conservative Christians are saying that homosexuals should not be allowed to marry because God doesn't approve of homosexuality. Does God approve of people who don't believe in Him? Heterosexual atheists marry in civil ceremonies every day. Why can't homosexuals be offered the same choice??

Romans 8: 2-4: For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending His own Son in the likeness of sin , condemned sin in the flesh. That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh , but after the Spirit.

I say Yes, Yes, Yes! Please read. Sense the days of Jesus, (Whether you believe he is the Son of God or not, it is a fact of history that he walked the earth) the Jews have been under constant attack and persecution. They have every right to defend themselves from these attacks. Now that Israel is once again a Jewish Nation, many militant groups and other countries seek to destroy them. Lebanon (neighboring Israel) has been supporting Hezbollah by housing them and allowing them to use borders to attack Israel. Israel has the right to defend itself. Israel has given the people of Lebanon plenty of forewarning of the attacks so they could evacuate and escape the oncoming destruction. Lebanon is blaming everyone they can accept Hezbollah, who is the real blame for bringing on the attacks to their country. Instead they embrace Hezbollah and want more attacks on Israel. This is just a small piece of what is to come.

Does the bible say that God made humans? (leaving no room for evolution). Or does the Bible say that God created evolution, thus humans?

As i can see ( but can be wrong) More and more Churches and denominations are moving away from trinity doctrine.
There are many proves that trinity was assembled in 325-397 AD when bible was finalized and it’s the doctrine of Church and not of the bible. ( I am just observer)
There are many Christians who see Jesus as the Son and not the Father.
I am curious.
Let’s say we are on the side of Trinity, than who ever is not are worshipping Jesus and breaking first GOD commandment (that’s why he wiped us all out on the first case).
Let’s say we are opposing trinity and consider Jesus to be the Son.
Do we have to in this case worship Father and give respect to the son or we still keep worshiping the son?
One thing is for sure that both groups can't be right. (But both can be wrong)

After all, it's about Faith. What makes one person's faith more valid than another person's faith?
