Are there Bible verses that say that others will judge you by the company that you keep. If so, does this mean to disassociate yourself from those that others look down on because of their carnal life style. "How can light have fellowship with darkeness."

I am not Christian and am trying to learn about the subject (please no conversion attempts). The stuff I've read claiming Jesus is both God and something seperate from him doesn't make sense, so please use great detail.

2 Chronicles 15:2
And he went out to meet Asa, and said unto him, Hear ye me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin;
"THE LORD IS WITH YOU, WHILE YE BE WITH HIM; AND IF YOU SEEK HIM, HE WILL BE FOUND OF YOU; BUT IF YE FORSAKE HIM, HE WILL FORSAKE YOU."

Just wondering if atheists tell their children the fables of Santa, Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy. And if you do, why? And if you don't, what do you tell your children when they hear other kids in school talk about what Santa gave them or how much money the Tooth Fairy put under their pillow?


If you don't participate in these fables of childhood tales, do you think your children miss out on something that other children get from these stories? These fables, like others, are basically lies and we shouldn't lie, especially to our children. They need to trust us. But isn't there a fun in anticipating what Santa and Easter bunny will give us? And if your child grows up and decides to believe that God exists, are they actually doing harm to themselves?

What are your thoughts? Would appreciate pure, deep honesty. Thanks!

What do you think about Christian politicians who claim to be Pro-choice? Should they be allowed to be active participants in a particular denomination? I know there is a lot of talk about Bishops with-holding communion from Catholics.....

Voices from the Holocaust, by Sylvia Rothchild, contains a series of memoirs by Jews who survived Nazi concentration camps. Survivor Sally Grubman, a schoolteacher in Lodz when the Nazis came to power, was taken to the camp at Auschwitz and later to Ravensbrück. Her experiences there prompted this observation: “I saw people who became very, very good and people who became absolutely mean. The nicest group were the Jehovah’s Witnesses. I take my hat off to those people. They were born martyrs. They did marvelous things for other people. They helped the sick, they shared their bread, and gave everyone near them spiritual comfort. The Germans hated them and respected them at the same time. They gave them the worst work but they took it with their heads high.”

Jehovah's Witnesses also were every day given the opportunity to be set free if they renounced their faith. Few did. Jews were never given this choice. When you think of them today remember this.

9Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

10Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

11And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

King James Version

Alrighty here's how it is. I go to this Christian school and so i know the whole "He died ont he cross" stuff. I've always stayed pretty loyal to God until around 6th grade i think. ( i am currently 14 and at the end of my 8th grade year) i don't think i lost faith in Him b/c of the issues thats happened but i just feel like...i don't completely want to give myself to Him. I mean, i've been through a lot of betrayal (xcept with this one amazing friend) so it's hard for me to trust my entire life in the hands of a man who i don't necceraly want to love. But i want to go to heaven, and i want to have eternal life it's just so hard to give myself to Him. But i know ineed to it's just i don't want to FORCE myself into this relationship with Him because honestly i don't think He really cares, no matter how many times i hear that He does.

i don't want this to be a "God debate" I'm 14, so please take your unneccesary "he doesn't exist" comments elsewhere. I just want help in my faith.

To say God exist is to say the entity of God exist within a realm of scope and possibility. People exist on Earth, The Earth exist in the Universe, Both exist within the conciousness of the human mind. Everything that exist is dependent upon realtive realms of possibility which creates dimension. I vemhemently oppose this train of thought. God does not exist because the entity of God is independent of all realms of scope and possibility. All dimensions are manifestations of He. God does not exist "God Is" Furthermore, everything that exist....exist within the realm of his manifestations, and is relative and dependent open other scopes of possibility for "The Happening" to take place.Everything is Of God but nothing is God. Seperation between entities of finite potential(Earth /Space/ Humans) & Infinity(God) is through a medium energy i.e (Mother Nature) or (Void) the outer limits of space...Nothing!

If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them: Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place; And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard. And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die: so shalt thou put evil away from among you; and all Israel shall hear, and fear. -- Deuteronomy 21:18-21

He that smiteth his father, or his mother, shall be surely put to death. -- Exodus 21:15

He that curseth his father, or his mother, shall surely be put to death. -- Exodus 21:17
