I don't understand how Christians can be so stupid. An earlier question asked about contradictions in the Bible, and one guy responded with several - almost 100 - and apparently there are many more, yet Christians respond that there are no contradictions in the Bible. It's right there, in print, you fools! I also read that God doesn't make contradictions, man does. But the Bible is THE WORD OF GOD, no? Therefore, using simple logic, God is full of contradictions. Your religion is full of contradictions. How can you people be so retarded (and by retarded I mean slow or limited in intellectual development)?

I proved in a previous post, (click my avatar to go to my questions) that each time a pro lifer stops an abortion, it kills 12 living, loved and wanted children in a third world nation. What happens if the pro life murderers force by law an end to abortion and force adoption of the fetus? Does that save more lives or does it cause more death? This question is not to the pro lifers, they will skirt the issue. If they want to answer they must prove their statements with quotes from the Bible, Laws in force in the US or by some other explanation that makes sense. Senseless statements proven foolish in my other postings will bring a big laugh.
Hint--- If you save one fetus for adoption, what happens to the millions of other children that need a home? How many do you cause to die and how many do you cause to suffer?

For some reason, I seem to be obsessed with curiosity about Hell. What is it? Is it eternal? What do you think (no need to base it on what a specific religion says)?

This is the article where i read it

Title: Who Would HAve Ever Thought It?
Author: withheld
It says..
A couple of church bulletins came across my desk that caught my eye. As I read these bulletins, a question came to my mind as to who would have ever thought churches of Christ would be engaging in such things? Please note how far some Churches of Christ are getting out of field.
*Community Care Center. The Central Church of Christ Bulletin of Bedford, Indiana said, " I consider 2001 a success financially because we supported many benevolent and outreach works. When we include preaching, preschool, food preparation and flowers, local outreach and outreach for mission works, as well as benevolence for people of the local community, including donations to the Community center... A thing might look financially successful but not touch top, side or bottom scipturally! Is there a passage of Scripture telling the church to support such?

An old man lived in Idaho. He wanted to spade his potato garden, but it was very hard work. His only son, who used to help him was in prison. The old man wrote a letter to his son and described his predicament.
Dear son,
"I'm feeling pretty bad because it looks like I won't be able to plant my potato garden this year. I am just getting too old to be digging up the garden plot. If you were here, all my troubles would be over. I know you would dig the plot for me."
Love Dad
A few days later, he received a letter from his son.
Dear Dad,
"For heaven's sake, Dad, don't dig up that garden, that's where I buried the BODIES."
Love Son

At 4 a.m. the next morning, F.B.I. agents and local police showed up and dug up the entire area without finding any bodies. They apologized to the old man and left. That same day the old man received another letter from his son.
Dear Dad,
"Go ahead and plant the potatoes now. That's the best I could do under the circumstances."
Love son

During a self breast exam, very dark blood was expressed from my left breast. Of course, I'm trying not to freak out, but it's hard, considering the main (and I believe ONLY) reason for it would be a tumor or cyst of some sort. I have a doctor's appointment tomorrow morning.

I need all the spiritual help I can get right now. Will you please pray for me? I've dealt with cancer in my family, and I know it's going to be a long haul, no matter what it turns out to be. Even if it's benign, I'll always wonder in the back of my mind if it's coming back to steal my life away.
I'm 33 years old, visually impaired, have two young children, and married to a man who's life is going to be cut short due to COPD. I'm not asking for it to be something it's not. I know God doesn't give any challenge that cannot be overcome. I'm asking for the strength and endurance to see it through to the end, whatever end that may be. I need wisdom along the way to provide for and protect my children.

Peace

Tons of people believe there isn't a God, but why? Where is the evidence? People always ask for what evidence there is of a God but I ask you, how are you sure there is not a God.

Yep its another book bann. I initially had a strong opinion on banning a book but if you keep reading you'll see that the school is providing an alternate book about a pig for the children of the protesting parents. And the other kids can read Harry Potter.

What do you guys think?
Both on the book being banned, the parents protesting, and the school system's stance.

...hung out with whores and social outcasts, was remarkably casual about sex, disapproved of the family, urged us to be laid-back about property and possessions, warned his followers that they too would die violently, and insisted that the truth kills and divides as well as liberates. He also cursed self-righteous prigs and deeply alarmed the ruling class.
