I am considering taking on the task of coordinating the program. Is anyone involved in such a group that could give me some pointers on where to begin?

what if one of these priests decided to become a serial killer too, as long as he said sorry to God before he dies he will be allowed in heaven, but a hard working family man who is an atheist will burn in hell. Does any rational person on planet Earth think there is something not quite right about this???

Some say 2012 is D-Day, others are skeptical about the whole tribulation thing...while some church goers think the world will most definately end by us destroying it, but others think god will have nother nature do her dirty work by tidal wave, fire, floods, whatever else...?

This is an excellent verse: And explains A LOT in today's world.
Isaiah 5:20
Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.

Most will say that they don't want other "religious" people to force their beliefs on them. Isn't that exactly what they are doing?

After all, science is supposed to be about explaining how things work - if Creationism is scientific, then it OUGHT to include detailed explanations of God's method(s) of creating the World, the Sun, the Moon, Animals and Plants, etc. WHERE are these explanations? No explanations = no science!

My fried just turned Christain, thanks to me, but now she trys PREACHING to me. I already know the stuff. Then she Tells people how I saved her, and according to the Bible, good deeds are supposed to be done and not bragged about. I love her, I really do but its getting annoying, at least when she was Atheist she didn't act like I was her savior. Hey that makes a good point Jesus is her savior not me!!!!!! What can I do to tone her down a notch?

Would the child:
1. Believe all theories, philosophies, and religions.
2. Ignore all theories, philosophies, and religions.
3. Or Choose specific ones.

Which would you say would be more so, and for what reason do you believe he or she would choose the specific ones?

Gen 1:26 states “And God went on to say: “Let us make man in our image..”

According to Trinitarians, because the verse says “Let US” that God is composed of three persons. Is that correct?

When Jehovah says “Let us” this doesn’t mean that there are multiple persons in one God but plainly God is talking to his Son.

Here’s an example :

Gen 33:12 states Later on HE said: “LET US pull out and go, and let me go in advance of you.”
Is HE composed of TWO persons or just talking to another person?

On the last episode of Smallville.. when Lana married Lex -she said "I Do" even though in her heart she did not mean it. Now my question is... in a Biblical context ...if you say & agree to the marriage vows, but you lied, and married for another reason besides love, then are you really married?

Why do catholics insist that Mary was born without sin? Do they not know the Levitical Law that sin is passed on through the father not the mother. Visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children. Sins of the fathers being passed down to the third and fourth generations. It has nothing to do with the mother, and everything to do with the father.

I do wish the christians could get their stories straight. Is the bible the word of god, or ain't it? If it's the word of god, then I should think it would be an all-or-nothing thing -- accept it or burn. And if it's not the word of god, then why bother with it at all?

I see posts that claim various LIES. For example,
"LDS Church shuns peole that leave the Church" (LIE)
"LDS members are not Christians" (look at the name of the church)
"LDS church is a cult" (another lie)

Are people ignorant or do they just listen to the lies of other people?

Did you noticed how he mix scripture with UFOs, had the people shave their hair, had the men castrate themselves, and then all committed suicide at the time Hale Bop comet was visible becaue he believed a space ship was waiting for them behind the comet?

This is why Christians tell the good news because people are lost and seeking and will believe a lie.

In a response to another question, someone stated, “I also don’t understand why [Catholics] think [Mary] was divine." Do some really believe that Catholicism teaches Mary was divine, and if so, why? (Catholicism does NOT teach this, by the way.)

I have been playing with the idea that there is no such thing as an action that is inherently or universally wrong. Sex, drugs, drinking, killing, speaking, fighting... The list goes on. Any actions that we can all take is NOT wrong or right because of the action, but because reasons behind making them.

Speaking can be kind or abusive, as well as kind for the purpose of being self-serving and abusive for the sake of helping someone to see they acting stupidly.

Killing, because you are stopping the suffering of another or yourself, versus killing to because the suffering of others is entertaining.

Sex, to feel emotionally connected to someone we love, versus sex because one is seeking dominance or their own pleasure without real care about their partner.

Can you see how what is right and what is wrong it almost arbitrarty beyond the idea that the motivation itself?

The Bible tries to teach us what we should want. We are suppose to not WANT the bad. It's the mindset that matters.

The proof is this forum. Yes we are using computers. But we are still acting like cavemen. Why are people doing nonsense like attacking other beliefs instead of trying to understand them? Why are people using that stupid report flag instead of rational discussion? The points are not the point. Yahoo will delete entire accounts , not just your silly answers profile. People lose all of the information they have stored in there. What if you run a business? What if you go to college? What if you and your family are in different countries? Doing this crap to people just because they think differently is quite apelike, therefore I conclude evolution has not occurred.
