If that is the case then we are "literally" made to live with our sins forever. I have had this theory about repetitive lives. I am not talking about reincarnation. I am talking about being born into the exact same life when we die. Think of it as "groundhog life" instead of "groundhod day" I want you to read this article because it explains things better.

G-D made Adam and Eve, not to Adam and Steve! Men are men, and shouldn't like other men! Women are women, and shouldn't like other women. It is disguesting! I hate seeing two girls, or two guys making out!

The atheist Bertrand Russell wrote in his book "Why I am Not a Christian" that if it is true that all things need a cause then God must also need a cause. He concluded from this that if God needed a cause then God was not God (and if God is not God then of course there is no God). This was basically a slightly more sophisticated form of the childlike question, "Who made God?" Even a child knows that things do not come from nothing, so if God is a "something" then He must have a cause as well, right?



The question is tricky because it sneaks in the false assumption that God came from somewhere and then asks where that might be. The answer is that the question does not even make sense. It is like asking, "What does blue smell like?" Blue is not in the category of things that have odor, so the question itself is flawed. In the same way, God is not in the category of things that are created, or come into existence, or are caused. God is uncaused and uncreated - He simply exists.



How do we know this? Well, we know that from nothing, nothing comes. So if there was ever a time when there was absolutely nothing in existence then nothing would have ever come to exist. But things do exist. Therefore, since there could never have been absolutely nothing, something had to have always been existing. That ever-existing thing is what we call God.

Do You Know? That due to the radical scope of Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton, a right to abortion was effectively established for the entire term of pregnancy for virtually any reason, whether for sake of personal finances, social convenience, or individual lifestyle...Therefore, no significant legal barriers of any kind whatsoever exist in the United States for a woman to obtain an abortion for any reason during any stage of her pregnancy.
Do You Know? At 22 days after conception, a baby's heart is already beating.
Do You Know? At 6 weeks, brain waves can be measured. At 8 weeks, the stomach, liver, and kidneys are functioning, and fingerprints have formed. At 9 weeks, the unborn child can feel pain.
Do You Know? That 700,000 abortions are performed each year in America after 9 weeks into the pregnancy.

OK in your life dont you want to be accepted?Dont you want to be loved?dont you want someone to trust you?If you dont than there is something wrong and with the otmost respect I say this.Jesus wants these three things from you more than any other good things you can do in your life and please dont start quoting scripture because I studied the Bible many version for 7 years day and night .One time I read the Bible for ten days straight.I followed the religious crowd and publishers were already to publish my book and I told them to cancel it I am wrong and the book is wrong.So i found out that all that religious gobbledygook meant nothing to Jesus.Even though I was a Holy Spirit filled born again Christian and I led 100s of people to Jesus and sent out 7000 pamphlets about Jesus and walked 1000 miles doing it.Jesus showed me it did not mean much.Until I started having a personal relationship with Jesus and let the Holy Spirit led me into what He wanted me to do .Then it worked/Do the 3

If we clone Bill Clinton (for instance) can his clones run for president one after another and each do 2 terms indefinitely?? If we got a good president we could keep him with this method, but would it be legal?

Mr. Science would never lie! Besides there ARE strong similarities between the common snail and those fine freeminders who never bother anyone or anything,lil darlins that they be. I mean,they're cold ,wet, slimy ,ugly ,slither along ,hard exterior, mush on the inside does sounds like pagans...but IS THERE SCIENTIFIC PROOF! Or did Mr. Science cleverly devise a false doctrine. Whichever,wouldn't it have taken millions oh even billions of years? But if so how come they're still the same,except the police get mad when you squash the big ones we got all over the place waving swords and babbling all kinds of crap. Oh,where is there truth!

I can not honestly say that I am a big fan or follower of this group of people but come on folks. Asking other people why other people are wrong and have a different understanding about something is just plain silly.
Why not ask God Himself to explain these great "mysteries" to you? He is more than capable of answering these inquiries and giving much more insightful thought and revelation than any of us ever could.
If we are to be examples of what it means to follow and live and think as Jesus, why the ridicule and judgement?
Is this what Jesus meant when He told us to "love your neighbor as yourself"?

I would just like to post this post for prayers for all who were affected by the VA Tech incident yesterday. I beleive the family of the young man responsibile also deserves to be prayed for, I am sure they are struggling as well. May the souls of those killed, as well as that of the shooter rest in God's Glory and may the shooter be forgiven as well by our Lord and Savior.

As God is taken out of the country and the schools, the violence just increases. The people of this country have allowed prayer and God in the pledge of allegiance to be removed. Christian groups are not allowed in schools and prayer is not allowed at graduations. As the violence increases proportionally why is this correlation ignored?
