Nonbelievers will not come to the traditional church building and Christians will not go to where the unbelievers hang out. Its a stalemate. How can we reach them if we do not go to them? Any ideas? Do we just do church for the believers and let the lost go to hell? I blame myself also.

the bible says there will be a time when christians will need to fight, countless bull**** prophecies say the same thing. we're gonna end up in a civil/religious war here soon, its gonna happen. people on both sides are too pigheaded.i wonder....how long will it be before the first crackpot fires the first shot that starts the man-made apocolypse?

not all zealots are christian and arab,m there are athiesti c zealots too....................its gonna be a wild ride. with so many believing in the end of days........whose gonna start it? will it be zealots of christs, zealots of muhammid or zealots of science? it doesnt matter, but i really think focusing on the end of the world will bring just that.. and i dont want to go out because someone couldnt stop themselves from being stupid!!!!!!!!

the death of his son, Yeshoua is enough! All you have to do is accept him as God and you will be saved! You can do whatever you want. The bible says this is true! It is his perfect word!

The questions seem slow this morning so how's about a song to wake us up? About ourselves in R&S. I'll start...throw in a verse of your own!

I once was a Christian fundy
Then one week, I think 'twas a Monday
I began to see another side.
Love of Christ trumps legalism
In my mind a cataclysm
Much I knew before I have denied!

Let's say that you told the ancient Greeks that, in a few thousand years, practically nobody would take the idea of the Olympus gods seriously.

Say you told them that people would not prey, worship or make sacrifices to Zeus anymore; that they are no temples to Apollo. That people can make as much fun of Neptune as they want in cartoons and films and that everyone would have a good laugh.

Say you tell them that, in the future, you can openly say in public that the very idea of a bunch of gods controlling our collective destiny from the top of a mountain in Greece is simply absurd and nobody will argue with you.

Do you think they would have taken it reasonably or do you think they would have "gone off on one"?

(You see where this is going don't you?)

Do you hear an actual voice in your head?
Is it a feeling that you get?
Is it that you feel "drawn" to a particular answer?

The Cambrian explosion is the geologically sudden appearance in the fossil record of the ancestors of familiar animals, starting about 542 million years ago.

Now, they are correct insofar that we have not yet fully explained what caused the 'explosion'. Three questions in particular are of importance currently: I) is the “explosion” real?; II) what does it tell us about the origin and possible evolution of animals? and III) what were its causes?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambrian_explosion#Significance_of_the_data

BUT: the explosion completely destroys the literal Bible interpretation! If the Genesis account was correct and everything was created around the same time, we would expect to see fossils of every living thing on this planet. Puppy fossils. Man fossils. Bird fossils. We don't. It's all trilobites and such.

So, you can accept the cambrian explosion or have a literal interpretation of the bible, but you can't have have it both. Choose.

I recently read an article in the paper about an atheist preaching to Christians, trying to save them. He said that when he was younger he was a Christian but the more he read the bible the more it lead him to not believing. one passage that he pointed out was one where God sent two bears to slaughter 42 children who were taunting a prophet!!! he said that this passage lead him to atheism because of God's cruelty. Is this true!!!! If you know would you please give me the passage and where I can find it in the Bible!!!! thanks a lot!!!!!

I am a 16 year old raised in a non religious household, but I've always felt a connection to God and the beliefs of Christianity, most specifically the Catholic Church. In the past few years I've read into the practices and rites of the Church, such as the Sacraments, and I was given a Bible as a gift from a family friend. She taught me the basics of prayer, so I have begun to pray regularly, and now I am beginning to feel a strong devotion to God. I live overseas, and the nearest church is one hour away from where I live so it's difficult for me to attend Mass every Sunday, but I always attend Mass whenever I'm back home, and I regularly attend Bible study. However, I have never been baptized, and I don't stay in my home country long enough to go through the entire process of baptism. But I deeply love God, and I feel that I am fully ready to embrace the religion. Could I call myself a Catholic then, based on my religious devotions and beliefs? Or is it too superficial?

Many times people write that a book says this & that. I am thinking, books do talk sometimes.

Especially a particular verse from a Holy Bible.

Is it the Spirit behind the book?

Rather than trying to throw weak arguments at evolution trying to disprove it, I would like to hear a logical argument from creationists as to why the theory of Creation is correct.

This is not a question which you throw antiquated or specious arguments at evolution. This an opportunity to explain to an agnostic WHY creationism is the only logical choice.

Note: Stating "Because the bible said so", or "because god made it so", or quoting bible passages and taking them as proof is NOT a logical argument.

that someone of the same belief system as you would say something like:


Just because you do not like the sound of it, does not mean it will not occur. Yeshoua has spoken! In my paradise I shall be granted every pleasure, every desire, for only admitting his existence! What have you got to lose? Repent! Accept Christ! Love Him! Follow Him! Then you too shall live forever and dine on the flesh of thine enemies!

Hail Jesus!


Most christians don't really think they'll dine on flesh in heaven do they?? and would that really be your wish or desire??

I have an idea of what I want to do, but I need help constructing a sociological question.

The basic idea:

I want to talk about how religion subtly shows its presence on society, and how we are made aware that it exists. For example, when people sneeze, you’d hear ‘God bless you’. Or when people discuss their views on abortion, someone will surely bring religion into it. Can you please help me construct a quesition.

I have one idea of a question so far:
How does religion subtly show its presence in a society where “knowledge is power” (Bacon)
