While looking up Head of KoRn on the internet, I cam across this article on cbn.com. I for one am somewhat offended by it and was wondering how others felt? "Christians should be the people least surprised by this conversion. We know that in Mark 2:27 Jesus said, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners” (NIV). If our Lord walked the earth today, we’d more likely find Him at a thrash metal rock concert looking for the wounded rather than sitting in a pew on Sunday morning amongst the righteous. God went to that rock concert and apparently found a hurting soul on stage."

It seems that everyone I know that is religious is guilty about something , is afraid of feeling guilty or tries to make me feel guilty. Why must I always feel bad about myself, my thoughts and my actions? Shouldn't God love me for who I am?

My question is regarding Yahoo Answers, but can apply to all life. It just seems that religous people always condemn or damn you for having a view other than their own. Why do they need to be so mean? I don't understand why what I do with my life makes them want to hate me. Why do they care what I do? or who I do it with? Why do they need to insult and yell at people that are different? What is it about being religious that makes you so mean to other people? I thought that religions are supposed to preach love, but all I see on here is hate?

that's one of the MANY things that made me move away from catholicism, because it's fake. I only trust the Holy Bible alone.

The problem is, Disciple, the attitude of women today. They do not really want rights - because they have many if they would stop and think. No, women today want to be in charge...they want to do the man's job and be just like him. Women have power they do not realize! A Christian lady who is living by the Book is the lady who is the most free and "liberated" and joyful individual on the earth.

Yes, women have rights - the right to obey God's Word......."

WOW - I just saw someone's response to a previous question and it used Hovind (Dr. Dino) as a source!!!!!!

I'm an atheist, it's obvious to me that Hovind is a crackpot - but I've heard that even fundamentalists think he's nuts!!

True?

A six-year-old girl was killed in an arson attack on her family home by men who disapproved of a relationship her older brother was having with a teenager, a court heard today.

Alisha Begum, the youngest of 12 children in her Bangladeshi family, became the innocent victim of an attempt to warn her sibling off seeing the 15-year-old when a blaze swept through her Birmingham home earlier this year, prosecutors said.

Two men went on trial today at Birmingham Crown Court accused of her murder and the attempted murder of nine of her relatives who escaped from the property in Bayswater Road, Aston, during the fire.

Hussain Ahmed, a 26-year-old dentist, and Daryll Tuzzio, 18, both from Birmingham, deny all the charges, including an additional count of arson with intent to endanger life.

They wouldn't know honor if it bit them

It doesnt make you an athiest right? What does it make you? What if you dont go to church because you think it is nuts, think the bible is a sham, but do believe there is a god are thankful for him? What if you think that God probably thinks that people misrepresent him with the bible and preaching?

Seriously why do people think God and Allah are diffrent? they are the exact same god and Allah is not some pagan moon god like some idiot on this thing said. Allah is God in the arabic language. they say Yhwh in Judaism, that doesnt mean it goes to another god. all 3 religion worships the same one god but most people dont know that are they that ignorant?

I always thought that drinking alcohol was against Islamic law, yet my mate who is a Muslim sometimes drinks a few beers (nothing too heavy - only a couple, and never in a large crowd).

He doesn't eat pork and quotes from the Qu'ran a lot of the time.

When I asked him about the drinking of Alcohol he told me that getting drunk is against the Muslim faith, but not drinking the occasional beer or glass of wine.

Is this true ????? He is a Shia Muslim if that makes any difference.

From the Evolution's Unritten Bible...

" In the Begining, Chance created the heavens and the earth. And there, existed a speck from nothing, smaller than an atom. Almighty Chance caused the speck to explode, and all came to be. Laws from caos, order from disorder, matter and energy swelled from the voidless aybis. Praise be to Father time for forming life and our ancestors and the foundations of the earth! Praise be to Fate for giving us the supperior capabilities! For there is no god but Almighty Chance, and Darwin, His messenger- dirt be upon him. And if anyman question Almighty Chance, let him be subject to mocking, and drowned in a current of hypothetical and unanswerable questions. Fight against the ignorants, force their children to follow Darwin's ways. For there is no god but Almighty Chance, and Darwin His Messenger- dirt be upon him. Anythinh that contradicts Fate is false... for Random Chance is the way and the truth and the life. Praise be to Chance."-First Chances,1:1-7

if my life sucks and the creatures of my same species won't cluster around me to share me as their own, why can't i end things on my own terms. i mean i'm going to die anyway...death is the bookend to life so what would be so sinful about ending my own book? why is it that every bible thumping mongloid has the audacity to tell people, their fellow man they can't end their suffering, or they can't use stem cells to regenerate health and living...if they really thought life was precious they would say okay and give that cell a meaning to live....are these not the same archaic minds that forced many aspiring doctors of the medeval times in to practicing their medicine secretly? are'nt they the ones who've slowed down the progress of science...if they knew their place in the food chain we would've probably had some major revolutions by now and thenfore suffering and the pain of dying would'nt coarse people into taking measures into their own hands.

It is not about being right or proving points. It is about loving you enough to tell you the truth. If we didn't care we would just say I'm going to heaven and your not and go on with our lives.

Also, do you think millions of Christians across the world are just brainwashed?
