If so, would that make Yahoo Answers a tool of the Devil? And then would that make it a sin for Christians to participate?

A big question I have is about people who have never been introduced to any sort of religion (ex. maybe a small village who is very isolated from everything or a newborn/very young child). Do they go to hell? And if so, how can they possibly deserve to go to hell when they haven't had a chance to make a decision either way?

To me, having 'faith' means believing in what the Book stands for--The Book that God wrote through people for the purposes of communication with people.

There are translation flaws with some, or perhaps, all versions. And having questions about the biblical text is natural.

However, our faith in the Bible ought to stand firm, in my opinion, and we ought to pursue our understanding of it, knowing that God uses it to speak with us and teach us about Him and this world that He has created.

How about you? What are your thoughts?

(This question is for Christians only, please.)

What would you write?

Mine would be:
Our suffering can be ended through the ceassation of our worldly desires, which can be achieved by meditating and feeling genuine compassion for our fellow human beings.

Please be kind and considerate to others...

Let's take Noah's ark for example. Someone just asked a question as to where all the flood waters would have gone after the world was flooded as there is not enough water on the planet to cover the entire surface.

Alright, you got us, there's absolutely no scientific explination. But before dismiss all Christians as looney consider something. We believe in an all powerful creator of the universe. A designer of all things seen and unseen. He literally wrote the book when it came to physics. What are the laws of the universe when it comes to acts of God? Why would a miracle need a scientific explanation? What you are basically saying is that you don't believe in miracles. That's one thing but please don't try to tear down someone's belief with a scientific arguement. I trust you all are smarter than that.

A side note however: In the ancient world would He have to cover the whole world or just the known world? Would both be acceptable interpretations?

Why don't you believe in God? I'm Lutheran, a Christian, and I can accept your beliefs, but I don't agree with them at all. What causes you not to believe? I don't think there's one good reason not to believe, I know its risky for me to write that on Yahoo Answers, but sometimes controversy just simply needs to be stated. Feel free to email me with any questions pertaining to my faith or Christianity ,etc..and I will answer them. Ask, send me your reasons by email if you want a response...I assure you, that whatever your reasons for not believing are, I can prove that they aren't vaild. Please note that NO offense is meant by this. Please, just realize that I am not setting out to insult you, I'm here to question respectfully, not offend.

believe in God? I don't really understand. There's no proof of him/her existing.

I can forgive people who wrong or offend me, but what business do I have telling anyone that his or her sins are forgiven?

The Jewish people believed (and still do) that only God was able to do that.

Yet, Jesus, a Jew, forgave people's sins all through His 3-year ministry on earth.

Why? Was He a delusional schizophrenic who really thought He was God the Son with the authority to forgive sins?

And how does He decide which one to use? According to the Bible, He seems to try out different methods - floods, pestulence, pillar of salt, you have it - just for the novelty.

He kind of reminds me of a kid trying out different ways to wipe out an ant hill.

Then when someone post a question that you feel is attacking you, you get all mad. Is this just the immature, simple minded that cannot defend your positions without being defensive. I know ask this in a provocative way, and I apopgize, however I tend to get just as aggrevated and offended being called stupid because we disagree.

When non-christians ask question and they recieve a biblical quote, they hate it. Not only do they not read it, they look at you like some christian programmed robot. Its like somone who doesnt know about sports asking about the score and you tell them about the zone defense unable to pick up the tight end on the strong side. I wish I didnt have to tell you this and people just understood but when you talk to someone you need to try and see where they are coming from you so you can really communicate. C'mon christians, are you TRYING to push people away?
