When a child dies in an accident or from some incurable disease, the mourners are left wondering why and how a benevolent God could let this happen. Many console themselves by saying the child is in a better place, and that it was God's will. When abortion happens, isn't that God's will?

Ok.

Now, let's suppose the Big Bang Theory is correct. Let's also suppose that evolution is correct.

the big bang theory says that some kind of mass started spinning and exploded to form today's planets.

Where did that mass come from? How did it get here? ... Can you imagine NOTHING... Nothing at all? NOTHING?... not even the color black, not even space itself?

That's my arguement. There has to be a creator for things that are created. If the big-bang theory is correct and you believe in it, then your Creator is a spinning sum of mass.

Try that... just try to comprehend... nothing. Absolutely nothing. How is that possible? ...I can't stop thinking about it. It's downright scary. If there's not a Creator, what made the things that make us? What made that microscopic cell that supposedly became humanity?... It just blows me away. I guess that's how uncomrehendible God is.

I know that contents were decided by a committee hundreds of years after Christ's death, appointed by a non-Christian emperor who decided to impose Christianity on his people, and that dozens of books were discarded and many of those that remained were edited.

What I'd like to know is exactly who these people were, how they were selected, and what their political and religious affiliations were. I'd also like to know how Christians can be so absolutely certain that none of these individuals were subject to either outside influences or their own inbred prejudices. Did God himself tell them what to include, and if so, why didn't he edit out the stuff that Christians now say that Jesus disavowed- like all of Leviticus except the prohibition on homosexuality?

Question is the answers Christians gave was your going to hell etc etc .. Is that Christian like no ...Chriatian means to be like Jesus well why can't Christians practice what the preach. Taking pleasure in the thought that someone is going to hell is in itself sick and if what they beleive is true will have to answer to that themselves... Does the bible state it's a sin to insult a christian?

Correct me if I am wrong here.. But this is the gist of it:
God created earth, God created a man (adam) Adam was lonly, So god created a woman (Eve). They had two sons (Caine and Able) Caine was jealous of Able, So he killed him. (or the other way around, I'm not sure) He was cast out of the garden of eden..
My questions:
1) If this is true.. How did Adam and Eve populate the earth?
2) Caine returned later to the garden of Eden with a wife.. Where did she come from?

Is it not just a good to contribute to specific causes that promote Christianity?

Last year I gave some to the Churches regular budget, but gave as much or more specifically to pay back a loan on a building project (because I don't like a church to carry a debt) and to GAP ministries which builds churches and clinics in Mexico (because I feel my money does more in mexico, and have personally seen that this program wastes little money)

Most religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to hell. Since, there is more than one of these religions and people do not belong to more than one religion, does that not mean we are all doomed to hell?

Moses jump started the bible. The rest of it is based on his work. Faith all boils down to whether or not you trust Moses, doesn't it?

Mormons and the devil ........................

The Devil was born as a spirit after Jesus "in the morning of pre-existence," (Mormon Doctrine, page 192.)
Jesus and Satan are spirit brothers and we were all born as siblings in heaven to them both, (Mormon Doctrine, p. 163.)
A plan of salvation was needed for the people of earth so Jesus offered a plan to the Father and Satan offered a plan to the father but Jesus' plan was accepted. In effect the Devil wanted to be the Savior of all Mankind and to "deny men their agency and to dethrone god." (Mormon Doctrine, page 193; Journal of Discourses, vol. 6, page 8.)


Mormons must examine there religious structure for themselves and avoid regurgitating things they are told by self appointed experts (Bishop)(The Prophet).


Lucifer is a created angelic being (a cherub)(see Ezekiel 28:13-19 and Isaiah 14:12-15), and Jesus is not in the created realm, He is the Creator.

By Colossians 1:16 we know that Jesus created all things, including angels. In the Jewish vernacular of the first century "thrones," "powers," "rulers," and "authorities" were used to describe different orders of angels (see Romans 8:38; Ephesians 1:21; 3:10; 6:12). The phrase "all things" means that Christ created everything in the universe. Everything, whether it be simple or complex, visible or invisible, earthly or heavenly, was created by Christ, and that includes Lucifer. Jesus is not the spirit brother of Lucifer, He created Lucifer.

The book of Mormon is in direct contradiction to the Bible, therefore the mormon book is a separate book from the Bible and a non-inspired book.

Last question was about a hypothetical accident that changed a christian to an atheist. Likewise, what if an atheist had the same personality altering type of trauma? But this time the atheist lost alot of cognative abilities and was functioning at the level of a retarded person. If this person was in this mental-state and cared for by his/her christian parents who basically guided them through everything, includeing a regular attendance in church, where they try to participate. Since this person is now clearly mentally handicapped, would they get a "free pass" to heaven or would they most likey be rejected due to their past atheistic ways? Discuss, if you will. Again, you will not be heckled in any way.

me being a lost human being, need something to look up to. people say i need religion, so this is what ive been looking into. me not being accepted by people for my lifestyle im wondering if there is a religion which accepts marijuana. if i was to follow, it would be 100% true, and i need to be able to follow the rules at the very least. i know in CHRISTIANITY, they used a "christ bearing oil" which contained oils extracted from the plant. So for anyone against it, and is christian, look what your god did! I am thinking the Islamic religion is best for me. I am preparing for criticism, so bring it, along with a couple good answers i hope.

"your taking that verse out of context"

how come you NEVER put the verse INTO context to prove us wrong?

and how come you put verses into your own "context"

take for instance the stance on prayer, i say "bible says he with faith the size of a mustard seed can move mountains" and "ask and you shall recieve" you tell me "you will only recieve if its in gods will" but nowhere does it say that. so apparently its ok for you to make the bible say what u want?
