If you follow the theory of evolution, where did everything come from? You can't have something come from nothing - that is simple physics, so what was before the big bang?

If everything was wiped out except for what was on the Ark, and that was Noah, his wife, their three sons, and their wives (for a total of 8 human beings), then regardless of whether or not there were other people around for Adam and Eve, doesn't it still mean that the earth was re-populated by incest?

So, I've been really puzzled lately on the topic of religion. I have many christian friends. atheist friends. jewish friends etc. i have heard each of their thoughts and views. i was brought up in the christian church and attended christian school for the beginning of my life. but i am confused on what religion is correct. if i was brought up believing in a religion other than christianity i would think that christianity was incorrect. i asked a preist, "what about people who have never heard of jesus christ, theyre going to hell because they havent accepted him?" and he answered thats why we have missionarys to teach others about him. I think hell was made up to scare people into believing in something. i think there is only one god. who's to say christians are correct? any thoughts?

I don't get this. How does some people killing the Son of God make that be able to happen? Shouldn't we have been punished, not saved?

He should have been the biggest fundamentalist in the world, but even he saw the evidence presented as supporting only evolution as the most viable theory.

OK if you christians and similar actually knew your religion you know that you are ignoring Jesus and Gods' word. You are supposed donate all of your money to the poor, you are supposed to condem homosexuals, adulterers, even kids who disobey their parents to death. Jesus was pro-slavery, anti-woman. But today not only is "God's" word ignored, it's completely turned around and the opposite is being done; nobody is actually doing God's word today! So does that mean if it were all real, that everybody would go to hell. (Now muslims god the right idea, they actually do practive their teachings.)

Suppose there is a God. He used science to create things correct, so what we see in the science section would be this kind of debate, how did he do it.

Just a few thoughts asking for discussion.

God has never tempted anyone. James 1:13
Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man.

Genesis 22:1
God did tempt Abraham.

2 Samuel 24:1
And again the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel, and he moved David against them to say, Go number Israel and Judah.
Many ppl were tempted
Matthew 6:13
And lead us not into temptation.

Is the situation in the middle East the beginning of the end as predicted in the Book of Revelation and do you accept that book as fortelling the end of this period of time or the end of the world?

If I read the New York Times, does this mean I am a New Yorker or am planning to move to New York?

I ask this because someone has said that because I am reading the Bible, it means I am trying to decipher God's word, and this means I am a Christian. Does anyone agree with this?

Apparently, this needed clarification. How can we trust a book that was written two thousand years ago some 30 to 80 years after the death of Jesus primarily by four people we'll never know in a foreign culture that we don't even understand today?

No OT answers.

I'm reading through questions and I come across this one where a lesbian is acting all sl*tty (cool!) and some jerk off gets p*ssed off and reports her (@ss). Appearently this dude's a Christian, k, and starts ripping her apart!!! saying she's a sinner and not allowed in church...and alot of garbage like that...aren't we all sinners, and aren't we all allowed in church? oh, and also claims that pride isn't a sin!! believe that?

the funny part is that I looked this morning and this retarded dude changed his name from "TuPac's#1fan" to "1 of God's Son's"
after she slammed him with Christian theology. Talk about pride.

sounds to me like like someone needs to go back to church and a lesson in humility! Anyone else agree?

What does a white wedding dress signify? Purity? Virginity? Is it not hypocritical to wear a white gown when you have had premarital sex?

If life could not overcome this, then no life would continue to exist. I have been looking at a creationist website, and am appalled at the crap they peddle out as truth or evidence.

Angels:
Genesis 19:13
For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxen great before the face of the LORD; and the LORD hath sent us to destroy it.

GOD him self:
Genesis 19:24
The LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven.
