...that you have been hornswaggled? That you didn't pay attention in school? That you were conditioned to ignore reason and logic at a very early age, not in all arenas, but anytime your ancestral imaginary friend is involved? Drop your arrogance and realize that you have 10 fingers, apes have 10 fingers; you reproduce sexually, all the other mammals do too; they live for a time and die, and so do you, so you should LIVE that way!

Amos 5:21-23 "I hate, I despise your religious feasts; I cannot stand your assemblies. Even though you bring me burnt offerings and grain offerings, I will not accept them. Though you bring choice fellowship offerings, I will have no regard for them. Away with the noise of your songs! I will not listen to the music of your harps.

This is a prophecy against Israel (vs 1) who were keeping differant days than God had commanded them (1 Kings 12:25-33)

Notice in Amos he calls them "your" feast days. Whos feast days are we to keep?

ILev. 23:2 Speak to the Israelites and say to them: 'These are my appointed feasts, the appointed feasts of the Lord, which you are to proclaim as sacred assemblies.'

The first one listed is Sabbath then the rest of the feast days. therefore does God not hate Sunday Christmas and Easter?

Yesterday I seen Paula White on the Daystar network sporing herself around in gym shorts and clothes with her personal trainer showing excerpts of her working out in a gym and running on the beach and riding her bike all the time she is peddling her workout book for $35.00. Is this evangelism? Is this organization of hers exempt from the IRS?

How can Christians defend their beliefs vs Mormons with any validity by saying that the Book of Mormon is an addition therefore not valid.

Most of your Bible is an Addition.... How can you possibly use this argument as a valid base of that you are correct and they are wrong.

Atheists tend to frown on kids being brought up in a strict religious household.

"Let the kid think for himself!"


Would you push your beliefs on your kid?

If a word is required to define a non-belief in something, then why isn't there a word for people who don't believe in pink unicorns?

This is harder than choosing the worst because the world can make us so angry and bitter.

Westminster Abbey has crowds and crowds of people and often stopps them for a moment of prayer during their tour.

But it mentioned no Bible verse, does not mention Jesys.
Mentions the father hood of God and the desireablity of light but makes no attempt to keep that other than ambigous

why is that? and is it Biblical or in line with a Christian confession

that if I just READ THE BIBLE, that I will just automatically know that the LDS church (Mormons) is false, wrong, whatever? Do they think we have nothing to do with the Bible? Or do they just think that we can't see what's right in front of us?

It's because I READ THE BIBLE that I AM Mormon. The more I read and study the Bible, the more convinced I am that I am right where God wants me.

Just because I don't interpret the Bible the same way, doesn't mean I'm wrong and they're right.

Why do those who attack Islam ignore the Quran but follow hadith? The number one rule when reading ANY hadith is if it goes with the Quran. The following hadith is weak (first disqualifier), but also goes against the Quran. The Quran in many places commands muslims to leave those who apostasize alone to enjoy this earth for they will get what they earned in the end. It also says to live in peace with those who have not fought you and all of that. Can those who attack please explain why you ignore what the Quran says in preference of hadith? I know the terrorists do the same, but the majority of us (muslims) are ticked off that they're ruining our image and using our name to commit acts of cowardice. Oh, yeah, and if you condemn terrorism, give a shout out :)

I just read a creationist's book published in '07 but seemed to only repeat arguments long refuted.

Are there any new objections to evolution? Aside from it's not in the Bible/Quran, violates the 2nd law of thermodynamics, mutations are harmful, and irreducible complexity?

My 2 daughters were killed in a car accident, along with my oldest daughter's fiance, almost 4 months ago. I have two pictures taken by the State Police on their digital camera, that show what appear to be colored auras. Others have told me that they have felt the girls' presence...have been visited. I haven't noticed anything but have been waiting for something.
Has anyone else experienced anything like this? Would love to hear some feedback.

Anti-Mormons lie:
"Dr." Walter Martin lied and said he was descended from Brigham Young. His wife lied and said he died while kneeling in prayer, when he died while sitting on the "throne".

Ed Decker lies like a dog! He says things like "Mormons believe that God had sex with Mary" and "Mormons are trying to take over the country, they have an exact replica of the Oval Office in the Salt Lake and/or the Washington D.C. temples".

If these guys lie about these things, why would anyone take ANYTHING they say seriously?

Ever notice that everybody tends to care about offending everyone BUT Christains?
It's a holiday tree, no, it IS a CHRISTmas tree. why say X-mas? Its CHRISTmas. and the list can go on and on. I personally find it offending that no body seems to care if my sensabilities are injured while trying to appese some one else's. So why has this become the norm?

We do NOT deny the diety of Christ! We WORSHIP Him as our Lord and Saviour! Why would they say such things about us?
