Hebrews 5:12-14 says once you're weaned you should start discerning (avoiding) what's both good and evil: the law; as if being weaned from milk is when you should start eating meat.

Which (law/grace) things are an "allegory": Galatians 4

Groliers encyclopedia on "Incarnation" tell us that
Incarnation denotes the embodiment of a deity in human form. The idea occurs frequently in MYTHOLOGY. For Christians, the incarnation is a central dogma referring to the belief that the eternal son of God, the second person of the Trinity, became man in the person of Jesus Christ. The incarnation was defined as a doctrine only after LONG STRUGGLES by early church councils. The Council of Nicea (325) defined the deity of Christ against Arianism; the Council of Constantinople (381) defined the full humanity of the incarnate Christ against Apollinarianism; the Council of Ephesus (431) defined the unity of Christ's person against Nestorianism; and the Council of Chalcedon (451) defined the two natures of Christ, divine and human, against Eutyches."

Almost 500 years right! Note that the apostles, their children, and their generations were too ignorant to recognize this existence of Jesus' "incarnation." Can you beat that?

Adapting to there enviroments?
If that was the case then we would of evolved into procreating only like cells can in a pitri dish...

How would evolution explain why sex would evolve into a pleasurable experience, so that every species would contiune to partake in the activity, for as long as earth is here?

How would evolution explain that the attraction male and females would have for one another would transpire into feelings of Love, Sex and creating families or tribes?

GOD answers each one of these questions, if you are telling me Evolution does than here's your chance...:)

No matter what question is posted, the true Christians never stop trying to share the Word of the Lord.
The phonies get rude and/or 'threaten' violence.
Christians score 1 point.
Phonies score 0.
Game over!

Instead of protesting outside clinics shouldn't they be volunteering at homeless shelters or trying to do something for homeless children. Aren't they considered 'LIFE' too?

Explain why we have 2 sexes?
Why didn't evolution create one species?

How can you dis-count the fact that GOD creator of heaven and Earth knew that it was going to take a male and female and the way he designed them, to pro-create the planet with human beings and animals of every species.

What is evolutions answer?

Well, you're ignorant. Being gay is NOT a choice.

Here are some studies and articles to help educate yourself. Now please stop posting in the LGBT thread with your attacks. You have no idea how much you are hurting some of the younger gay people reading this section.

At this ponit the questions isn't whether or not it's a choice, the question is how much is caused by genetics, and how much is caused by environment. Most DATA shows that it is caused primarily by genetics with a secondary factor of environment. But in both cases the gayness of a person is determined long before they are conscious of the fact that they are gay/straight and that determination is PERMANENT.

People are always sayng Christians are dumb for never questioning their faith. Well, im a Christian and I question my faith all the time (and it ends up srtonger every time).

You might not like calling your beliefs "faith", still, do you question them from time to time? Do you search information regarding some other line of thought?

Suppose someone hates life. Bringing him again and again into this earth would produce an evil cycle of misery, which in the lack of the presence of a God could be eternal. Eternal misery, and nothing to do about it. Wouldn't that suck?

So what do you call continuing to believe something IN SPITE of evidence to the contrary? What if the evidence is overwhelming, and completely accepted by millions of experts in the subject?

I think that kind of obstinate tenacity deserves a different word. Anyone can do Faith; it takes someone special to be quite so doggedly wrong.

Oh, and: God approves of faith, we're told. But what does He think of this other thing?

If I asked you to follow me into a darkened tunnel, all by yourself, and I just said to you "Have faith and don't ask questions"...woudl you go? If not, why is the answer all too often "have faith" when you're asked difficult questions about your religion? Why do you have such blinding faith in your religion? Why is it NOT okay to ask hard questions? Are you afraid of the answers? Because that's exactly how it appears to me.
