a new game called Left Behind: Eternal Forces will be out just in time for Chrismas so your kids to will learn that they too can kill the unsaved

As the game’s Website says, “their choice is to either join the AntiChrist—which is an imposturous one world government seeking peace for all of mankind, or they may join the Tribulation Force—which seeks to expose the truth and defend themselves against the forces of the AntiChrist.” Gamers can themselves join the forces of darkness. When I played the evil side while visiting Left Behind Games’ bland, office-park headquarters outside of San Diego recently, I started with two soldiers in my Satanic army, one of them a Muslim named Amir Mohammed Salem.

I am not trying to offend anyone.I just read this and thought it was so cute,It is about a christain women and a atheist man and thier arguments,I thought of theYA and thought it would be cute to send.
There's a little old Christian lady living next door to an atheist. Every morning the lady comes out onto her front porch and shouts"Praise the Lord!".
The atheist yells back,"There is no God".
She does this every morning with the same result.As time goes on, the lady runs into financial difficulties and has trouble buying food.She goes out onto the porch and asks God for help with groceries, then says "Praise the Lord".
The next morning she goes out onto the porch and there's the groceries she asked for,and of course,she shouts"Praise the Lord!".
The atheist jumps out from behind a bush and says,"Ha I bought those groceries-there is no God".
The lady looks at him and smiles,she shouts"Praise the Lord,not only did you provide for me Lord, you made the devil pay for it..

I don't care if homosexuality is an abomination according to you. I don't want you coming here to yell at me for mentioning it, so please don't. I'd just like to know why God says it would be wrong for me to love another woman. Is God really not the all-forgiving lord we know him to be? What justifies the statement that homosexuality is an abomination? (And don't say the Bible, because, this just in, it's a friggin' BOOK!) If the Bible really is law, could I read another book and make a religion based off of it? Let's see...Don Quixote... KILL THE WINDMILL!!! I'm sick of people telling me that the friends I have made are worthless scum and going to Hell just because they are different. I hate people who use their faith as a reason to hate people. I hate you. I hate you.

seriously asking: there are many debates on the interpretation of verses in the Bible. that the text has been altered according to the translator is often brought up.

is this true? have words and meanings been changed through translation? and if it is true, how should the Bible be interpreted? does it change the way the Bible should be read?

again: not trying to challenge anyone. some say that the Bible is the absolute word of God and others that it is the words of God or prophets secondhand from humans (with the human allowance for error and bias). it can't be both (can it?). so now i wonder, which is it?

Adam has no father nor mother, eve has father and no mother and jesus has a mother and no father, all signs and miracles from god.. he's the almighty creator of the universe so it is very easy to creat jesus from his mother only

Sounds like he did the same thing Saddam Hussein did with Uday and Qusay. God should have been the one who came here and got nailed to that cross.

Would rather be part of christianity or try to think of a better excuse to live?

2006-10-21 15:52:20 · 5 answers · asked by Mr.RIGHT 2

would be a really fun place if it were full of "heathen" non-believers that did stuff without caring what the bible said about it. Probably full with lots of cool people that know how to have a good time instead of those who care about what the bible says. I don't really see how it could be as bad as christians make it out to be, people tend to exaggerate about these sort of things.

Anyone agree? How could it not be one helluva party?

I had to ask this one to the Christians who support the belief that angels followed Lucifer who was also an angel.

1. Do you think Lucifer has freedom of choice, when God created him to suggest evil to humans?

2. Dont you think the reason God favors humans above all His creations is their ability to chose both good and evil with their free will?

3. In the event that you answer no to 1 and yes to 2 dont you think its wrong to portray some angels as having chosen to go with Satan?

4. Last but not least, dont you think God finds it blasphemous for you to think his angels would make such a mistake?

People on here keep saying evolution is 'only' a theory. This makes me think they probably don't realize that theories are the most powerful tools that science has.

Facts and laws are useful - but they fall under theories as a whole. The theory of gravity (note: theory) contains Newton's laws, relativity, orbital mechanics, and you falling of your roof. Electromagnetic theory contains Kirchoff's laws, Maxwell's laws, and the fact that your car/computer/lights work. Evolutionary theory contains the facts that we CAN observe evolution happening (see bacteria and the flu virus), the fossil record, the human genome, we can see natural selection at work, etc.

Theories are the most important tool of science - theories are never elevated to facts because they are already more important then facts and laws. Evolution is one of the best supported theories in science - we have more evidence for it than we do for eletromagetics (but your computer still works!).

I am ashamed to say that I committed adultery as a Christian. Don't start judging me please. I have one question for you.
I fell in love with the man that I committed adultery with for 3 years. I moved in with him 2 of these years. My husband never demanded a divorce. He did file for one. Then I filed. We went to court once and that is all. He still has the final papers to sign. He won't tell me if he wants the divorce or not. He moved to another state with my daughter who is ll. I followed to be near her. To share custody. I gave up my love for the other man. But he still calls and writes emails to me. We still love each other. However, if my husband will not sign the divorce papers final draft, does that mean I shouldn't get a divorce? Will God hold it against me if I want the divorce and not my husband--even though I am the one who committed adultery.???? Should I stay to save face and please God?

I mean that is beyond anything this life could produce! burning in hell for ETERNITY!! that means neverending pain and suffering!!!...why are you not trying to save me christians..if you really believe shouldn't you be trying desperately to save me, even putting a gun to my head to make me confess my love for jesus if necessary. I mean that is beyond anything in this life: If you could save one person from suffering forever that would be worth the lines of millions. So which one is it?

1. you are too selfish to care.
2. you have your doubts about god.
3. you can't grasp the concept of eternity

I just want to know why I am not being 'helped' if they really believe that...Why are they not throwing all their evidence for him at me and forcing me to comprehend it at gun point?? About 90% of America is christian? Are there really that many evil, selfish people...or do they really believe that bolognie?

If god is suppose to be good why does he make everyone on earth suffer. If god was good he wouldn't let anyone here on earth get sick or suffer with any medical problems. He must get his rock or rocks off seeing humans and animals suffer. I (god) suffered so I will make everyone on earth suffer 1000 times more than I did. Thats sick and cruel.

I dreamed that I was talking to my mom, and all of a sudden, instead of mom, it was Jesus. So I kneeled before him and admired him so much. And then he turned back into my mom again! Mom was asking me why was I admiring her so much, and I said I was trying to worship Jesus. They kept switching back and forth, from mom to Jesus, and from Jesus to mom.

strange, huh?

Before the angels were created, before the earth or the heavens or galaxies were created, before humankind was created, WHEN NOTHING EXISTED EXCEPT GOD .... where did evil come from? Didn't evil originate with God? How did the evil enter into creation, unless he put it there? Then HE blamed the creation for the evil he put into creation????? THAT makes god a hypocrite .... and also it makes god the FIRST sinner !!!
