I have read MANY pages of questions on why ALL christians judge, and hate non belivers. All of christians do this.... Hummm I dont know all non belivers, nor do I generlize in my questions or observents. We as christians do not pratice this. I m sure a few do....Thats not right...so, my question is why do non-believers condem us all? We are individuals

I personally think these are the same people who watch the "Flintstones" as if it was a documentary.

Does arguing the origins of our species bring you closer to Jesus?
Just wondering.

Jesus made a convenant with his disciples, and the bible states that they started receiving the holy spirit as an indication of being annointed and chosen to be in God's kingdom....how come churches teach that if you are good you go to heaven....where in the bible states that that all the good ones go to heaven....David, Lot, and even John the babtise didn't went to heaven, even though they were faithful and good servants of God....

Why is it Agnostics are the only ones ive never seen a disrespectful answer from? I get proclaimed christians who are extremely rude, just the same as athiests and many other religions but ive NEVER seen a rude remark from an agnostic.

One of the respondents to the previous question...said that the website in question didn't intimidate him, but that Christians attacking him "for being gay" did.

As a Christian, I can't deny that the Bible, Old Testament and New, DOES condemn homosexual activity. It also condemns gluttony, gossipping, greediness, spiritual pride, prayerlessness, cowardice, one of which in the list, all Christians must admit they fall into still....I notice a campaign among Christians to "go after" homosexuals. I'll be the first to admit, I "go after" atheists, because they're looking for a fight. Homosexuals, typically, aren't, unless they're doing it under the guise of defending atheism.

Homosexuals have internal guilt APLENTY without any outside pounding. What would it be like to watch friend after friend succumb to AIDS, while you yourself were still standing? Even if you weren't directly responsible for seducing a youngster, imagine it. "A bruised reed, he shall not break."-isaiah.

I have lived my life serving him. I have never a day regreted it. There is nothing better than the Lord God All Mighty!

I've thought on this today, and I can't think of anything BETTER than the Lord!

not money, not cars, not food, lands, riches,
nothing!

Is there anything better than the Lord?


let us SAY SO!

A) True. God is one. All religions talk of the same God or atleast the same goal.
B) False. Only one religion is right. The rest are wrong. If you chose B, state which religion?

Here are some rules to live by!
1. Satan represents indulgence instead of abstinence!

2. Satan represents vital existence instead of spiritual pipe dreams!

3. Satan represents undefiled wisdom instead of hypocritical self-deceit!

4. Satan represents kindness to those who deserve it instead of love wasted on ingrates!

5. Satan represents vengeance instead of turning the other cheek!

6. Satan represents responsibility to the responsible instead of concern for psychic vampires!

7. Satan represents man as just another animal, sometimes better, more often worse than those that walk on all-fours, who, because of his “divine spiritual and intellectual development,” has become the most vicious animal of all!

8. Satan represents all of the so-called sins, as they all lead to physical, mental, or emotional gratification!


9. Satan has been the best friend I have ever had, as He has kept my happy all these years!

I don't understand how anyone can believe in a god. It just seems childish to me, the whole concept. There's some invisible man who is watching over us and he decides what happens to us after we die. WTF??? It's like Santa but on a more depressing level.

I'm posting this in the religion section due to the fact the same lame questions are posted at least ten times an hour. Some of those questions being:

1. Why do atheists use the word God?

2. Why don't atheists believe in God?

3. Why don't people believe in Jesus?

4. Why don't people believe in the bible?

5. Why are all Muslims terrorists?

6. Why did Mohammad (rape, marry, molest) a 9 year old girl?

7. If evolution is a fact why are there still monkeys?

8. How did life begin?

9. How did the universe come into existence out of nothing?

10. Any question related to the end times.

11. Do atheists mark out "God" on currency?

12. Why is God being kicked out of schools?

13. and dozens of more . . .

Please feel free to add your own, and that goes for the repetitive questions atheists/agnostics/others pose.

Please take a minute and look at the untold suffering, the thousands of lives shattered or wiped away in war and terrorism by the cancer on the human soul that is religion and explain to me why my claims could be wrong?

Ecclesiastes 9:4-6
4. For to him that is joined to all the living there is hope: for a living dog is better than a dead lion.
5. For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.
6. Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun.

Psalm 146:4
His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day his thoughts perish.


So even biblically there are no such things as ghosts?

Imagine you were a "good christian". Followed all the rules, gave to the church, asked forgiveness for your sins, yadda yadda yadda.

All of a sudden you are in a car accident and suffer a brain injury. This brain injury has now caused you to act like a different person. You become angry more often, you're hurtful, you're dishonest and you do not ask forgiveness for your sins. (it is possible, and has happened numerous times, 1st year psychology textbooks cite numerous examples)

Do you still get into heaven, and why or why not?

The definition of pride is
noun: unreasonable and inordinate self-esteem (personified as one of the deadly sins)

noun: the trait of being spurred on by a dislike of falling below your standards

noun: a feeling of self-respect and personal worth

noun: satisfaction with your (or another's) achievements


So everyone who says that their religion is the right religion or their god is the best and only god is commiting this sin. That is if they do it in a boastful manner, such as trying to convert or looking down on someone or putting too much emphasis on it. Also if they do not keep a humble outlook towards other religions.

The 7 sins are listed in the Bible under Proverbs 6:16-19:
for any Christian who wants to deny it is in their scripture.


What is your take on this? I just want your opinion without the bashing please. I would like to hear from both sides of this.
