"Science must be based on religion and religion must include scientific rationality. I think that the words of Albert Einstein. 'Science without religion is lame and religion without science is blind', are of even greater importance now than when he uttered them.


I believe greatly in this. What do you think of it?

My boyfriend and I have been together for three years now. We have a very trusting, commited relationship and we can talk to each other about anything and everything except for: religion. Our conflicting beliefs almost caused us to break up about two years ago and since then we have tried to avoid any mention of it (since if we do, it usually results in an argument with the same result over and over again).

I will never convert, I was born an Atheist and will always be one. And I know that he so strongly believes in God/Christianity. We have learned to accept our differences in this for now, but will this cause any problems for us down the line? What about when we decide to have kids? Would it be wrong if I got upset for him wanting to baptize our children and drag them to church with him every Sunday? How do people deal with these kinds of differences and work past them (rather than just ignoring them)?

"Lord, I did not doubt that which I did not understand, I did not open my mind to the logical thought process that you gave us all, I did not ask questions or think for myself. I did as I was told."
OR
"Lord, I followed my heart and my head and made my own decisions. I questioned that which I did not understand and pursued total understanding. I was honest with myself to the end and I only made conclusions when I had sufficient knowledge."

I wonder which one he would prefer...

Was that (virgin) mary was married to God before she came to earth and when the Holy Ghost came over her, God (her husband) and she consemated the marriage and Jesus was conceived. Now that makes Mary, God's daughter, he was married to his daughter, but the Mormons will say that they call each other brother and sister and that you marry hyour brother or your sister, at the time it made sence to me, now it sounds ridiculous to me.

When Person A commits a wrong doing, it was their own choice and God had nothing to do with it. But when Person B achieves something great, they must give god all their "glory" to God and praise Him, because without God, they never would've achieved it. So my question is this, if a faithful person believes that God created everything and knows all, that must mean that he MADE Person A commit the wrong doing that he did, right?

Is it considered a sin to have sexual thoughts?

It's not like I do lol, But I was just wondering. Would that be bad even though you are NOT committing adultery?

They completely reject the concept of God's covenant with Christians and argue that His covenant is still with the Jews. They don't consider Christians His Chosen People,but rather the Jews. Plus,they think Christ was the Jewish Messiah,then they are fervid supporters of Israel,less critical of that government than most Israelis. Theologically they would seem to be more like Messianic Jews than Christians. I realize they don't practice Jewish ritual or observances,but in terms of their basic beliefs? For all their "Have you heard about Jesus",when you get past that (yeah,I have) they go off chapter & verse on you a mile a minute and it quickly devolves that for the most part they quote from the Hebrew scripture,or old testament as we still call it,which mainstream Christians hardly read at all any more. Since they are saturated with Judaism,since their nuts about Israel,since they have the same core concepts as Messianic Jews,what's the diff or is there one?Sure doesn't seem like it.

Believing that you can evolve into a God or Goddess is a pagan belief and allows a person to believe that there are other Gods (besides the one and only true God) out there, including oneself, evloving into one. I know of no other christians faith that claims to be christian and beleives that they will evolve into a God, so how can the LDS people callthemself Christian, I know its is their nice attitudes, their no drinking, no smoking, no drug policy, and family oriented ways and no sex before marriage, but none of them except jesus into their hearts or get saved.

Just to hedge your bets?

Ok, theres only ONE WAY that i can find that totally, 100% bars you from EVER having a chance at getting into heaven.

(child molestation, murder, rape, torture, stealing, all these things can be forgiven of course, but uttering one sentence gets you eternal damnation, WITHOUT PAROLE)

Once you have done that, wouldnt it make sense to become a satanist? I mean there are no take backs and begging and pleading prolly wont work, so you might as well get ready to sleep in the bed ya made right?

On the off chance the bible IS correct, and your gonna burn in hell, doesnt it make sense to try to get in good with satan at least? seeing how IF the bible is right your gonna burn anyhow?

What are the odds i can get tax right offs for opening a church of satan?

They have one form ofTheology the Temple goers and one form of theology for the Mormons that have not gone to the Temple. They will say that the stuff in the Temple is sacred so the stuff is top secret, but really it is a higher form of knowledge, you go to www.saintsalive and findout what goes on in the temple. hehehehe

Right now there are two catholic churches. One is the "patriotic church", that appoints its own bishops without consent from the Vatican, and which persecutes the real Catholic Church, in which attendance is illegal.

Recently the head of the patriotic church died and was given state funeral:

Have you ever made the correlation between the tree of life and the Bible.

God's Word is printed on paper which comes from tree pulp.

Gen 3:22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:

We all must eat (assimilate or consume knowledge) of the tree of life (Jesus Christ), to live for ever.

Christ the living Word.

3000 yrs from today, life science will be able to produce man-made organs easily, just like chocolate bars flowing out of the assembly lines. Will they produce sinless brains, if impossible, how about 10,000 yrs, or, ok, 10 millions yrs from today!!!Sooner or later they will be able to do it, right? It's simply a matter of time. When that happens, who will go to heaven, who will go to hell? Will someday the mankind be able to save themselves, and throw the Bible away?

that unless you are baptized in the Catholic Church, you go to hell?

Every so often I hear this idea from a Catholic. Is it what THEY believe, or is it a church teaching?

Why do you believe this? And if you don't , why not?

Please note, this is not a question about whether God's love can save humanity or not. I am asking whether the human capacity for love is sufficiently powerful to save humanity from all the pain and suffering we currently inflict upon each other.

I was wondering, what made you become a christian?? I've been a christian my whole life and i was wondering why some people converted from another religion or were a christian their entire lives.
Testimonies are great, too (which is kind of what this question is!)
thanks!
