I see these every once in a while (someone keeps putting them in the bathrooms where I work) and I must say, all the seem to do is paint Christianity in a rediculous light. I mean, how silly is the one about D&D (http://www.chick.com/reading/tracts/0046/0046_01.asp ? And how dumb are the ones about Evolution (http://www.chick.com/reading/tracts/1051/1051_01.asp , Muslims (http://www.chick.com/reading/tracts/1054/1054_01.asp , and Homosexuality? (http://www.chick.com/reading/tracts/1052/1052_01.asp

Heh, I love how this one clearly shows the hypocracy of Christianity. http://www.chick.com/reading/tracts/0037/0037_01.asp

I can't believe someone actually thinking "This preachy, badly drawn, borderline offensive comic will make someone think Christianity is great! I'll leave it next to a urinal!"

Is there anyone here who actually thinks Chick Tracts help recruit converts? Can you defend them?

Here's a whole bunch, have a laugh.

Why does God say in FATIHA verse 5:
Thee do we worship, and Thine aid we seek, yet he himself is GOD? Which other GOD is he seeking help from?

I'm just looking for what, if anything, you believe about evolution. For example: believe in all evolution, micro-evolution, no evolution what-so-ever, etc.

Falwell wants followers to be “the most intolerant people in the world”
3/5/06
In his weekly sermon from his church in Lynchburg VA, Rev. Jerry Falwell addressed many topics, including the role of the church, intolerance, and discrimination. In the sermon aired on Sunday, March 5, 2006, Falwell included evolution and same-sex marriage among the “many challenges” facing American culture today. In the same sermon, Falwell said he wants his “people to be the most intolerant people in the world” because he wants all people to acknowledge the superiority of Christianity even if “to teach that one system of truth is superior to another is politically incorrect and it’s intolerant.”

What'ya think of that?

I have one and it isn't destroying me because I chose to enjoy the moments that I see him as I lead a very busy life. I trust that he will remain in our town because I would miss him terribly. I am in need of thoughts on this hum ringer....

1. you believe all the documents and what all the documents say and agree about Jesus, that He existed and He was the Son of God and He performed miracles. He died arose from the dead and is alive today.

2. you believe the 5600 documents are accurate, but ONLY in that Jesus existed, not that he performed or did anything that all the documents say He did (miracles and such, you think he was an ordinary man)....

3. you dont accept the 5600 documents and they're all a lie. Jesus never existed. The numerous people who didnt know each other who wrote the EXACT same things in the manuscripts, And the Fact that the manuscripts were found in different parts of the world, this was just a Coincidence (more like miraculous LoL).

1, 2, or 3?

I would be considered one of those fanatics because I am a Independent, Fundamental, KJV only, Baptist BUT a lot of you guys really tick me off with your un- Christian "talk"
We do NOT need to be bashing everybody on the head who doesn't agree with us... literally or figulartively!!!


ps did I spell "figulartively" correct... I'm not quite sure all of asudden how to spell it.

Sunrise from the West
The science of astronomy states that the speed of planet Mars has been decreasing in its course toward the eastern direction in the few past weeks to the level we notice the "waver" between the east and the west ..and on Wednesday the 30th of July the planet movement stopped going toward the eastern direction.. Then in the months of August and September...Mars changed its course in the opposite direction to the West- and that until the end of September. which means the sun will rise now from the west on Mars!! And this weird phenomena of the opposite movement called "Retrograde Motion" Most scientist state that all the planets will go through the same once at least and our planet Earth is one of them. Planet Earth will move in the opposite direction some day and the sun will rise from the west!! This might occur soon and we are unaware!

When's the last time an Atheist president said Christians shouldn't be considered patriots or even citizens?
When's the last time an Atheist told you who you can and can't marry?
When's the last time an Atheist made it illegal for Christians to run for office or testify in court in several states?
When's the last time an Atheist banned Christians from a public funded group like the Boy Scouts?
When's the last time an Atheist made you unable to shop at certain stores or go to the bank on certain days because of their beliefs?
When's the last time an Atheist killed for his/her beliefs?
When's the last time an Atheist added lines to the origional pledge of allegiance to reflect their own beliefs?
When's the last time an Atheist tried to pull a fast one you by making laws based on something that the constitution clearly says laws shouldn't be based on?

Think about this the next time you wonder why Atheists are here.

no stupid answers this is the rule
what was the story of those verses from the Qur'an from Surah 4 "Al Nisaa"
105. We have sent down to thee the Book in truth, that thou mightest judge between men, as guided by Allah. so be not (used) as an advocate by those who betray their trust;

106. But seek the forgiveness of Allah. for Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful.

107. Contend not on behalf of such as betray their own souls; for Allah loveth not one given to perfidy and crime:

108. They may hide (Their crimes) from men, but they cannot hide (Them) from Allah, seeing that He is in their midst when they plot by night, in words that He cannot approve: And Allah Doth compass round all that they do.

109. Ah! These are the sort of men on whose behalf ye may contend in this world; but who will contend with Allah on their behalf on the Day of Judgment, or who will carry their affairs through?

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone here has ever experienced a true Christian who was able to speak in his or her last hours or days.
I`m experiencing something so awesome and beautiful. there or no words to describe.
My husbands Grandmother is 88 and the Dr`s give her a few hrs or days to live. For the past few days she has been in the hospital, all of her kids there ever minute, they are getting to enjoy her and her them. She is praising god and ready to go whenever he is ready to take her, I know she is so sick that she really don’t have an appetite, but she keeps eating, because she has such a strong will to do gods will. She knows it wont be long now and she is laughing and talking with her children. It`s beautiful. The Dr and nurses say they have never seen anything like this. She has taught alot of us so much about love and fogivness.
To my Christian brothers and sisters, will you please pray that when it’s her time, god will take her with no pain what-so ever. In Jesus name?

Are they not capable of thinking for themselves?

Btw, this is not a pro/anti Christian question. It's about the habits of some answerers.

how do you feel about christian and catholic missionaries trying to get others of other faith to join theirs? do you think that is right just because you believe that your religion holds the truth and salvation while others don't? what about respecting their beliefs?don't you feel you are trying to takesomething which isn't yours? if i may be so bold, what you are doing is like poaching to me. how would you feel if others of other faith pull the same tact on your followers for the same reasons that you have? I'm ok if they come to you at their own free will, but going out in the streets, making nice to them,( you do it in third world countries and in well developed countries too, thus your excuse to just help the poor and needy doesnt hold up in the latter), questioning their religion, faith and studying it so you can find ways to turn it around. have you ever question your conscience or what your people are really doing?

During my last post Christians complained I was judging them by the actions of a few. Or they claimed that ‘those people’ are not true Christians--funny that's not how ‘those people’ tell it. Yet, Christians pass judgment on gays, Muslims and Jews, etc ad nausem all the time.

The only difference is when someone gay does something stupid...they are ridiculed by they gay community. Religious people greet stupidity with silent approval and allow it to continue in their name.

So if I’m not supposed to judge you on the actions of a few and we really do have freedom of religion, what makes it okay for you to do it to me or an entire community? Why do you feel so righteous when you vote away potential privileges for others?
