Does this sound evil or good?

"Jesus died for your dirt(murder, rape, cheat, ect.)"

Evil or Good. choose one.

What about the victim of the murder?

Let's just go through a few of the icons of evolution.

Similar bone structure - evidence for a similar creator

Human DNA similar to Monkey's - DNA is the building blocks that God used. He created monkeys with similar body structure and thus similar DNA.

Many mammalian fetuses look similar - same explination as the bone structure, but this one is currently under dispute as many scientist are seeing now they aren't that similar at all.

Appendix - has been shown to aid in the disgestive system, though you can obviously live with out it. (I currently short one appendix)

My authority in asking is:
Deuteronomy 18:22
When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.

Be prepared to defend your answers... Jim

At one time it called "souling" people would put embers in turnips and go from door to door offering to pray for their deceased family members in return for food.

Yes Holoween has pagan roots that go back further than that, I just wanted to point out there are some spiritual roots too.

I welcome any of your thoughts.

Thanks

Reading the bible, it sure is hard to tell:
1. Satan tells Adam and Eve the truth about the tree of knowledge and is condemned by God for telling them the TRUTH.
2. Satan NEVER KILLED a single person in the bible, while God killed innocent women, children, and babies.
3. Adam and Eve made the mistake but ALL mankind must suffer for it.
4. God tells you to kill your own disobedient children in the bible.
5. God says that Satan is the problem and causes sin but can't kill Satan? Maybe God is just using Satan as a scapegoat for his own crimes.
6. In the bible it actually says "God created evil and chaos and death" : Deuteronomy 30: 15 (KJV)
7. In the bible it says God sends "evil spirits" : Judges 9: 23 (KJV)
Maybe this Jehovah guy is evil and not satan...Hmmmm

Tomorrow would have been my brother's 18th Birthday. He was born on October 31st and died on Nov 2nd. I pray for him every day and I know he is in heaven. The reason why I asked the question above is because when my brother died he was not baptized, I was told that because of this he would go to Limbo. Islam taught me that Inshallah my brother(May God rest his soul! Ameen) is in heaven. And that simple fact... was what started me on the road of becoming a Muslim and questioning my faith.

Any thoughts on children passing without baptism would be greatly appreciated. As well as how death has impacted your beliefs. If at all?

Some background...I work at a posh hotel in Dallas, TX. Bishop TD Jakes and Benny Hinn are frequent guests (not at the same time of course). Why is it necessary for Benny Hinn to spend upwards of $1000/night for the presidential suite for days at a time? Why does TD Jakes drive around town in a $500,000 Bentley?

If these men were truly 'Men of God', wouldn't they use that money spent on such frivolous things to help the poor? Help drug addicts trying to recover? Anything but flashing how much money their churches are bringing in from people believing their money is going towards legitimate works?

It just seems like they adore suicide bombings and say that is their religion but tell that to the people being blown up.

Ok I want all of you to tell me your story regarding your faith. Include why you chose it how old you were and if you want to teach it to your children. Best story wins 10 points. And also what do you think about ghosts? If you don't want to answer the ghost question, then in a few brief sentences try to dispell one rumor or misconception about your faith. Thanx. (I'm wiccan)

I am reading on different religions. And on reading up on Chistianity, I have found so many similairities btween REAL events and the events that "supposedly" happened in the Bible. I'm not really sure if I believe in Go, Heaven, or Hell. I belive in being a good person, and a good neighbor, and being one with nature. I guess that makes me closer to being a Pagan than a Christian.

I was chatting with one of my Christian friends and he made a comment that got me going, “hmmmmm”.

He said, “The strongest argument against the Christian faith is the lives of Christians. At the same time one of the strongest arguments for the Christian faith is also the lives of Christians.”

What do you think?

By the by: If you can’t be respectful go answer someone else’s question. Thanks much.

What would be an appropriate Christian image to carve into a pumpkin for trunk-or-treat at church? I've found some patterns of Jesus but not sure it would be appropriate to carve into a pumpkin. What do you think?

Seriously! After hearing my preacher say that, it sickened me to think that the churches are sending people to hell because they want their money (greed).
