Humans make mistakes and are hypocritical, Why should anything else be expected of Christians?

Especially when they admit they are sinners?

makes about as much sense as if I were to say the Lutheran Church wasn't started by Martin Luther but by some guy called Murray. Do you see my point? I mean there was no other Christian Church before the Catholic Church people.

"Questions" like these are so, so, offensive to Muslims. It is time for people to stand up and take action. The YA! Moderators have to stop these people. Telling false information, insulting, and other stuff. How would you feel if someone mocked your religion like this?

Before it could be proved false, Christians were absolutely positive that the sun, planets, etc. revolved around the earth. (Talk about cosmic egotism.) They knew no better and despite some more than a little resistance, have now accepted the fact that the earth is not the center of the universe.

Still, in spite of evidence to the contrary, creationists insist that god created man rather believing the evidence of the natural explanation offered by evolution/natural selection. Will they be looked by our descendents at with the same sort of disdain we look upon those who believed in geocentric model? If so, don't you sort of feel sorry for them?

I know I've asked this question before, but it's my favorite, and I like getting new views on it.

The more I think about it, the more I realize that my personal spirituality is more in line with songs such as "Strawberry Fields Forever" and "Breathe" than any dogma of an organized religion.

And when you get right down to it, is there any difference between reading the words written by man in the Bible and applying them to your life, or listening to the words sung by man on Dark Side of the Moon or the White Album and doing the same?

I'm not suggesting that I have alters to these musical artists or that I pray to them for guidance, more like I listen to what they have to say and think "Yeah... I can dig that."

What do you think of this? Wrong? Right? Crazy?

In closing, I'll leave you with my favorite scene from the movie Michael.

"Remember what John and Paul said."
"The Apostles?"
"No, the Beatles. All you need is love."

this will bring far more destruction than anything any religion has ever caused, and atheist scientists are 100% to blame.

wouldn't that mean you're dead? from what i've been told there is no greater joy or pleasure than that of heaven. so you're in heaven and you experience this pleasure. what is your reaction? are you overwhelmed by it? do you react the same as with anything that is pleasurable? do you say ahhh? for how long? does it eventually stop feeling good? if not, do you keep saying ahhhh? if it does stop feeling good, that would mean that you would eventually get bored with it. then you're left for an eternity experiencing something you don't really care for. so let's say you're just continually experiencing this pleasure? what then? you're just in a constant state of pleasure. so what happens to your frame of reference, your concept of time? it all goes away doesn't it? you're just forever sighing in joy like some goon. you might as well be dead.

What basic emotional need(s) does your religion or spiritual path fulfill in you?

For agnostics and atheists, if you were once part of a religious group was there any need that it met, if only temporarily?

I personally am not a religious follower and have nothing against homosexuallity, or for that matter catholics. However, I do find it interesting how many catholics, and indeed churches, have no objection to it even though the bible clearly makes reference to it being "wrong".

Hello

I am a Christian and a man of science.
The people I have to work the hardest against are... Christians
How to deal with other christians, especially the ones in the US ? (I never have any trouble with followers of Jesus in other countries).

-------------------
I dedicate my life at mitigating global warming since it is the field where I can do the most to help other people, especially the weak ones (poor countries). I know... its like the work of mother Theresa bringing milk to Bangladesh while the dutch engineer comes to build dykes... one is more visible, the other is crucial, both are useful.

I could have used my business and science knowledge for army or weapons business instead... so please respect my work, I truly try to help other humans on a rational basis.
