assuming that the Bible is the only word of God which I don't think it is... Archeologists are finding other Gospels on a regular basis...
It does say in the Bible that A woman is to be a mans "help mate" Isn't it kind of imposible for a person to help another person while being there mate if the two people are not at least equel to one another and the "help mate" being somwhat superior in some ways to the person that the help mate trying to help?
It does say "help mate" I don't think God meant that to be confused with a Stepford Wife... Also being some ones mate indicates that there are two people involved in the relationship there for is there ever really a need to assert authority over one another and if there is don't the two people invole in the relationship have to be equels or better?

With screen personality ministers and TV churches it's easy to feel the hype of obedient glory to an elevated spiritual leader like Pastor Melissa Scott, Gene Scott's widow in California.

Think about it, everyone judges to some degree. It is our nature. If you say you don't you're a liar, to some degree you do.

When you can't ask questions but obey a religious figure above the Lord's commandments, faith is whom comes into question.

If a scientist found a way that allowed you to live forever in this life, and they are working on it, would you take it or would you rather die to be with God in heaven?

So I know at first there was adam and eve, and then they had two sons. So how did the rest of the human population come about? Did Cain or Abel have children with their mother? After all she was the only woman around, right?

LA church pastor Melissa Scott defines faith for salvation as paying her. She tells tv viewers they must pay her for prayer requests, pay for her birthday, pay to sit in the front rows, pay, pay, pay. Did God intend churches and shepherds to be so expensive? What about the poor?

Having a conversation with a good Christian friend of mine - with a literal interpretation of the Bible - we came upon the topic of whether or not punishing a child for a parent's mistake was just or not.

I posed him with this situation:

If the United States government decided that if an adult were to make a mistake (doesn't have to be specific in this situation) then the children or future children of that adult would have to suffer the same punishment - or worse - as the parent has been sentenced to. I asked, if the United States carried out with this law would it be just? His answer was no it would not!

He went on to say that God did not create sin (although I had thought the notion was he created everything) and that there was nothing God could do but follow his own law and that it WAS just because God did not create sin...

Can someone explain further their religious standpoint or maybe a justification God would have for punishing every subsequent human after Adam.

Thanks.

In a world created by God, why would he create animals that become extinct?

Not all Muslims are complaining about the restrictions in the Quran, so why are the West creating animosity by being bias towards those who choose to follow the Quran. Just because you can't control your lust, doesn't make it right in the sight of the Creator. Look at how they treat women, just like exhibits in in a meat shop. Modesty is a sin in the West, no ?

According to leaders of the cult-like religion, Tom Cruise is the new “Christ” of Scientology.

The actor has been told he has been “chosen” to spread the word of his faith throughout the world.

And leader David Miscavige believes that in future, Tom Cruise, will be worshipped like Jesus for his work to raise awareness of the religion.

A source close to the actor, who has risen to one of the church’s top levels, said: “Tom has been told he is Scientology’s Christ-like figure.

“Like Christ, he’s been criticised for his views. But future generations will realise he was right.”

Cruise joined the Church of Scientology in the ’80s. Leader L Ron Hubbard claimed humans bear traces of an ancient alien civilisation.

What do you make of this?

My minister says demanding % tithes is faithless. It shows lack of faith in Jesus and redemption through him.

If God created the universe and has been around for all time, our worship should not mean very much. If it's true that we were put on Earth by God then there should be another reason for the existence of the human race other than to just worship him. He/she/it doesn't need it. What do you think?

An abortion clinic is the place where there is more of the spirit of death than any place else, really. Approx 30 - 60 (helpless) lives are taken in a short period of time. It is the front line of spiritual warfare.

Have you ever been there and experienced the presence of the Holy Spirit and/or the spirit of death?
