I can't stop staring at my stunning good looks, so I might as well marry myself. No woman out there is beautiful enough for this perfection

The book of Ephesians, which contains the verses that say "wives submit to your husbands...husbands love your wives as Christ loved the church," was written by Paul, a man that was never married. Isn't that kind of ironic? I mean, I don't mean to undermine scripture, because a lot of it is valuable. But I realized this a while ago, and it jumped out at me. Your thoughts?

for people of faith to answer questions without attacking or condeming those who ask them? i know some questions are designed to make fun of or insult those people but i'm not talking about those.
i'm talking about those questions that are asked in order to get a better understanding of peoples different beliefs.
these people to are often attacked and it seems to mostly come from those of the christian faith. so i ask... whats it take to get a sincere and honest answer without being attacked?

I believe Set and Satan is just a representation of all predatorily living beings true will. Us humans are really not that much different from other meat eating animals. Why be dishonest with ourselves and claim we are any better?

How does someone get to a point where they obey without question? Why can't people think outside the box? What about cults whose members have obviously given up their freewill for ego and security? I'm looking for psychological answers only.

How were you baptized? In Jesus' Name, or in the titles father, son, and holy ghost? The only example given in scripture is in Jesus' Name. If you were baptized in the titles, could you please give a bible example of where anyone else was baptized this way in the New Testament church. This would be from Acts chapter 2 and on, not in the gospels.

i was raised protestant but converted to catholicism when i was older. to me or at least the branch of protestantism i was raised in was only created so divorce would be ok in the church? that just doesn’t make a lot of sense to me. Martin Luther’s version is ok i understand that. but the rest of it is just stupid and selfish. does that fact bother any one else?

13The letters were taken by messengers to every part of the kingdom, and this is what was said in the letters:

On the thirteenth day of Adar, the twelfth month, all Jewish men, women, and children are to be killed. And their property is to be taken.

Esther 3:13

These letters all said that on the 13th day you would be dead. That sounds unlucky to me.

The laws (rules, regulations or doctrine,) of your gods and your church are the ultimate last resort for your decisions concerning your spiritual well being.

if you agree with this statement, then why would it matter to what the laws of man or a country say. because in your personell life the laws that you believe in through your religion are the higher laws to follow right?

so with that said why do so many people feel the need to protest any law or action that does not agree with the laws of their church or religion. after all what i do really does not effect you so if i decide to marry a gay man or support a friend in an abortion what does it really matter to you? you have done nothing wrong. it is my soul that is on the line. so what do the laws of man and country really have to do with religion?

Both are condemned in the Old Testament, but they claim they can eat pork because they're "not under the law". Didn't the law include homosexuality? Doesn't that mean it's fair game?

they KNOW what they are saying is wrong. so... instead of answering them and feeding fuel to their fire why not just ignore them so it dies out and they actually look for some answers?

We women are told to "obey" our husbands and our husbands are commanded to "love us as Christ loved the Church and offered Himself up for it." Which in your opinion is the easier and better deal?
Personally I am glad to be born a woman.
Peace Be With You,

After Jesus was executed, his disciples went into hiding for a while for fear of also being executed. It is even documented that one of Jesus' closest disciples denied knowing Him while He was being tried, for fear of the authorities.

Then, all of a sudden, they all came out of hiding and began preaching: "Peter said to them [a huge gathering], 'Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit'." (Acts 2:38)

Moreover, the disciples seemed to have lost their fear of persecution. They boldly went on to be martyred for preaching about Jesus.

How do you think this was possible?

I'm already openly gay, but I don't like little boys. Gotta work on that I guess before the RCC will accept me.
