No prayer in school anymore, some want the word "God" taken off of our currency, some even want the word "God" taken out of the Pledge of Allegiance. Where does it end? If these people who are old enough to remember, things have gotten so much worse in this country since these things have been taken out and I am fed up with it. I know I will get alot of flack over this and I dont give a damn.

If so, and how else could it be born, than it will have it's own soul and will not actually be a clone at all.

women to cut their hair or wear pants? I think this is the stupidest thing i've ever heard of. I usually am pretty open minded regarding everyone's beliefs, but what is this based on? Does god really care what you wear?

Are we saved the very first time we believe or is it a continuing process of believing?

do you believe or have faith in it?

Please don't answer that QP is provable. If you don't understand it, you can't understand the proof either.
Christianity is similiar as many people have proof of its validity.
Do you see a difference?

Quotes of when jesus was being crucified according to the bible:

Mark 15:34
And at the ninth hour, Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying: ELOI, ELOI, lamma sabacthani? Which is, being interpreted: My God, My God, Why hast thou forsaken me?

mathew 27:46.
And about the ninth hour, Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying: ELI, ELI, lamma sabacthani? That is, My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me?

http://www.newadvent.org/bible/mat027.ht...


Look at the word ELOI and the ELI they look very similar.

If they are said out loud they sound like the word ALLAH, very similar.

ELOI: The O in ELOI is a sign of respect for god in Aramaic, like arabs sometimes say ALLAHO. In english it's O ALLAH.

IF you don't believe in the allah part. Than you must think than why would jesus cryout for himself in pain if he is truly god as christians claim he is.

I mean, was he some kind of masochist, who liked torturing himself.

Thy Kingdom come: Matthew Henry's Commentary says-Quote:This petition has plainly a reference to the docrine which Christ preached at this time, the Kingdom of heaven is at hand. The kingdom of your Father, who is in heaven, this is at hand, pray that it may come. We should turn the word we hear into prayer, our heart should echo to it: does Christ promise, surely I come quickly? our heart should answer, Even so, come. What God promise we must pray for; for promises are given, not to supersede, but to quicken and encourage prayer.

The answer is, the same way that the creator was teaching us thousands of years ago and now.
start with simple stories, parables, psalms, poems, songs, encourage observation and exploration, expand the vocabulary and thereby expand comprehension, create some rules to maintain harmony among the children and give them only what they can understand at any given moment of their evolution into adulthood. By the time the infant is an adult, he would have full mastery of the concepts and be capable of teaching it to someone else, but by the time, the concepts would have grown, so doesn't it make sense that we teach the manner in which we learn truth, rather than teach truth as we see it?

We are still children and the creator is still teaching us. Seek the truth and teach your children to seek truth. The beauty of the Truth is in it's utter simplicity. Seek and you will find. Where? every where and in every thing. When? Always will it reveal itself.

Take a pair of elephants. After they got off the ark, let's say they had 2 babies, a boy and a girl. Who did those babies mate with?

Each other?

That's incest!

You mean to tell me that every single species on Earth is the product of incest?

Impossible.

The genes of all the animals would have been so corrupted 2 or 3 generations down the line that every species on Earth would have sucomb to genetic diseases and died off.

And that's a FACT.
