If the Pope is apologizing that means he made a mistake (possibly a major one), why didn't God put the words in the Pope's mind to would help heal the situation?

Granted not ALL believers are brainwashed, but quite obviously SOME are.... people always get mad when atheists and agnostics say believers are brainwashed... when there are things such as what that Jesus Camp movie shows going on in this world, how can you not expect people NOT to think that?

Why not the God mythology?

I offer this up for discussion, how does a non-believer properly refer to the magic wizard concept known as "god".

that in order to have evidence for the existence in God, one must 1st believe? This is contrary to anything and everything rational.
Imagine if I said. In order to see evidence for fairies, you must first believe in fairies, then every time it rains you will know it was a fairy.
I think I would be classified as insane for that.

Do you believe once saved always saved? If you don't mind please include your preferred faith. I'm of Southern Baptist faith and was wondering how many different denominations believe this to be true. Thanks and God bless.

Using the internet, and yahoo answers as an example, is this the turning point in the history of humanity, where we as a planet will return to the state of being as we were 6000 years ago, before the invention of religion and the God hypothesis, since these arenas are where reason and logic will dominate and disprove the God hypothesis?

Is this an equilizer since there is no fear of retribution here, that reason is allowed to run rampant, unchecked?

Do the people who believe in the God hypothesis fear this change, fear losing the control they have over their fellow human being.

Are the bells of freedom and reason ringing?

Do you hear it?

Ring.

Ring.

Ring.

The time of the God hypothesis is over. We shall overcome.

I need an honest, christian view about my marriage. Before my husband and I got married he said he always wanted a big family so I thought we'd probably have a child. Now that we're married, he says he doesn't want one now and maybe never. He wants me to keep taking my birth control pills. I really want a baby. I wondered if anyone knew of any bible verses that I could read that would give me some comfort and understanding in my situation. Is God even ok with birth control? How does he feel about "withdrawl" which is something else that he does to prevent pregnancy. I know this is a weird subject and please don't respond if you only have critisizing or distasteful answers. Thanks and God Bless.

THIS IS A WHAT IF, DON'T FORGET THAT IN YOUR ANSWER.

When hell is mentioned in scripture (and it isn't mentioned that many times, and only in the New Testament) it is referring to a place believers will find themselves in if they do certain things. Jesus, first and foremost, preached to believers and their actions. If our actions are contrary to the way God intended us to live, what if those actions are bringing hell here, now? Your thoughts?

Couldn't there be an athiest section in the Q&A? because people are constantly going against Christianity and every other religon and it is so offensive. If you don't believe in God why can't you stay away from 'Religon and Spirituality?'

Summary: would you believe me if I said God impregnated me. I got many amusing answers & some odd ones but this was cherry on the cake;

*You are nuts. God does not look upon people like you, let alone say those things to them. He will not look upon sin or the sinner.
You are confusing Him with Satan, who is your father.

John 8:44 {insert annoying bible quote here}

IF you do not accept Jesus as your savior and do not believe in God, you belong to Satan. - Carol M*

WOW! I ask a simple hypothetical question - whether people would believe me or think I just got knocked up and was embarrassed (hence making up God came to me).

My question you ask? AlleyCat said something that made me think. Does it say it anywhere that God COULDN'T have another kid? Why does it seem so unlikely that God could indeed knock up someone else? He *IS* God and could do anything..

Non bible believers and evolutionists believe that everything originated from an infinitely small rotating mass. Lets say for example that this spinning mass was rotating clockwise. The law of "conservation of angular momentum" states that if part of this mass has to break off that it too should be spinning clockwise.

Please explain to me that why then are there planent and other heavenly bodies which do not all spin clockwise (or anti-clockwise), according to your big-bang theory everything must be spinning the same way around, which is not the case.

Please note that I too believe in a big-bang,the bible describes it as still to come

2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

taking for granted that there will be someone who can be labelled as antichrist (against christ/christianity) could it be possible that this person is has been chosen by god to clean out a religion that has gone malignant?
sorry to offend people who believe, but the simple fact is that it is a religion that has drastically veered off the path of spiritual enlightenment, and while no religion is perfect, it does seem to be the most arrogant, with islam a close second.
