I have noticed that being gay is synonymous with going to hell. What happened to "he who is without sin throw the first stone"?

I've seen all the Bible verses. But I never read one that said "He who is gay will burn in the lake of fire for all eternity."

Jack o'lanterns are carved with frightening faces to scare away evil spirits. Mine are simply carved pumkins, and are hardly frightening... (sorry, no draculas or gouls)... Just because Halloween is approaching is no reason to assume the pumpkins are anything other than what I have made them, is there?

...and you personally found their requests to be morally wrong, would you go through with what they wanted anyway, after they've passed on. Or would you find an alternative with which you were more comfortable?

I have a problem where I am plagued by blasphemous or pornographic images while in prayer. I stay away from pornography in real life and live a life of purpetual virginity with no masturbation. I pray to cast out any devils who could be supplying these images but sometimes that doesn't help. When nothing else works, I dig my finger nails into the flesh of my arms (without breaking the skin) and that pain allows me to block the images.



What should I do to stop these images?

And say it was written for those people at that time, and that it has good guidelines, but we don't have to follow them? That even if it WAS inspired by God, that it is outdated? Just seems like a LOT that I read writes off a ton of stuff as cultural. I agree with a lot of it, and am no longer that conservative (haven't been for a couple of years), but it does seem like an awful lot.

Serious question (I know a lot of my ?s sound like debates, but I really truly don't mean for them to. I am finally out from under my parent's thumb and am trying to figure things out for myself, especially on the controversial topics.)

If Christ is God, (and I do have faith in Him), didn't he make us this way? And if he did then doesn't he love us? There are many other "forbidden" things in the Bible that we pay no notice to in this day and time because they just don't apply anymore. If there was anything God was (and is) against, wasn't it the rape, which happened to men and women, in Soddom and Gomorra ? Read it more carefully, and I hope you read the 2 books by Bishop Spong, to all gay bashing Christians I hope it re-affirms the "love" side of your faith. It's not a choice

Till the 15th centuary the Earth was supposed to be flat and upholded by the Church and many scientist who argued against the notion then were enlightened by thr Roman Catholic Church by the stake and other such measures.
In modern times evolution as a concept has been discovered and it is supported by tonnes of facts.But christians are arguing that the proofs are inconclusive and Evolution is lies.
So my question is that are the evidences and facts which support evolution inconclusive and not as clear and apparent as our earth being round?

Why was Jesus in the tomb for only two and a half days at the most, when he said he would be there three days and three nights (Matthew 12:40)?Many verses of the Bible make reference to the "three day and three night" prophesy (Matthew 20:19...etc.).
Event Days Nights
'Good Friday' - one
Saturday (the Sabbath) one one
Sunday Morning - - nil nil
Total one day two nights

Kind of like built-in instinct?
Even people in the middle of nowhere, with no education system, and no access to churches or religious people to provide influence, ponder their origins, look to the stars and question if a God exists.

Of course, you could argue that our imaginations can think of many things that are not real; but with death...

Why do we question life after death, heaven etc?

We just die, that's it... right?
100% sure?
There is always that nagging bit in your head that says: "But what if... what if there's something after?"
Even the die-hard atheist couldn't tell you with absolute certainty that death is 100% the end.

How can it be that so many people question life and question the possibility of a creator, if it is not built within us to begin with?

Does having the capacity to question our very selves mean anything, or is it simply that we stick a label on the unknown for our own comfort?

Forexample, the creation narrative, Noah's deluge, a solid dome over the sky,Earth supported by a foundation. Why has the evangelical church produced "Creation Science" explanations that are complete nonsense? Why is it that none of the more rational reconciliations of science and the Bible survives scrutiny?
(The water poured through the "windows of heaven" to cause Noah's flood, and then presumably poured off the edge of the
disk-shaped earth into the abyss.)
