Also, Able was afraid of the people in the desert when he killed Kain and had to run. Where did these people suddenly come from... Was Adam and Eve not the mother and father of all humans? Maybe that is why god considers all humans to be imperfect because of the obvious incest which had to have followed creating an aberration of his creation? Did his master plan contain a strategic error?

My twin brother and I have been having sexual relations for about two weeks. I am starting to fear for my mortal soul. Should we find a way to get married so we are not living in sin?

If a programmer writes a computer programme and it has errors, then the programmer is responsible... Human beings are amasing lifeforms, a new born baby has no concept of good or evil. The awareness of good and evil is indoctrinated by religious teachings...

A 9 year scientific study [discussed in a 2007 book] poses the epic battle between the 2 sides in an entirely new light and grounds - throwing it entirely open to full-scale debate ... a REAL debate!!!

Author, scientist-discoverer, Denis Towers, himself an anatomist and kinesiologist has discovered that snakes and humans are the precise antithesis of one another - both, applied anatomically and behaviorally.

The conclusion drawn over this study is that this fact, of itself, expresses 'deliberation of design' and is just not possible over all the potential genetic random mutations via the theory of evolution ... that is, if we were to believe evolution!!

The other conclusion drawn by those involved is that this Breakthrough discovery in the debate tends to strongly support the Biblical Adam & Eve account, which involved the snake [its body assumed by Satan] setting Man in opposition to God.
God cursed the snake in a manner to make it opposite man in all things!!

do you learn what witchcraft is, and all its biblical definitions? do you learn to fight sorcery with sorcery.? is anti sorcery, the only way to fight against sorcery and the evil fruit thereof? is it still sorcery? see rev 18:23 the world is deceived by the sorceries of babylon.
in my opinion, many people practice sorcery and believe they have the spirit of God.

This god is supposed to be perfect. This god is supposed to have created the tiniest insects to such perfection. Why did he inspire men (with the emphasis on men) who lie, kill, deceive, enslave and abuse each other to write his word for him. If this word is not written by god it is not perfect...

Insulting Hindu God or Swamiji in movies
is like insulting Muslim God Allah
or Christian Son of God Jesus and Pope
since God is one and all religions accept the same. Insults on Religious Gurus in Indian movies should be deleted for PEACE in INDIA and for World Peace.

It isn't really in the R&S that I get these vibes, but in real life.
Being atheist doesn't automatically make people more smart or stupid.
Being religious doesn't do that either.
Why do people think like that?
Yeah, I believe in God and Jesus Christ.
No, I'm not stupid. I've studied evolution probably just as much as the average atheist.

So what I'd like answered is:
If you are atheist, do you consider Christians (or other religious people ) inferior to you? More stupid? If yes, why? If not... why?

If you're religious... have you ever felt this way? Has your intelligence been insulted by a non-believer?

A thought to tell our God's love and why to fear Him...
Our God the Creator who made the universe, made the sun also. If we stand in the scrotching sun for quite sometime, we face tiredness and fatique. God was gracious to provide us with homes and even trees for the early man and even now many take their refuge under the trees because of heat.
If God's creation, the sun can provide us so much heat, how much more will be His anger when we do or say things against Him which can destroy us right where we are.

"Fear of the Lord is the beginning of Knowledge"

But the good news is "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."

In Christ we are within the veil. You have access into the very heart and love of the Father.

As humans continue to develop greater tools and our knowledge and understanding of the world on which we live and the universe around us grows, more evidence is discovered that disproves the beliefs that so many hold sacred.

Every picture of Adam and Eve portrays them as white, yet evidence shows that mankind first evolved in Africa where everyone was black.

God told Noah to build an ark to transport two of every animal, yet there are many thousands of species. The ark would have to have been the size of a small country. Oh, and where did they store the food for the animals to eat? Would there not have been additional animals to feed the carnivores? How many humans had to be on board to clean up all the mess?

Now, as that story is obviously false, how many other stories from the Bible are false? What can truly be believed?

If people believed more in fact than in fiction, perhaps religion would be unecessary and we could set aside such calamitous differences.

For the soul there is neither birth nor death at any time. He has not come into being, does not come into being, and will not come into being. He is unborn, eternal, ever-existing and primeval. He is not slain when the body is slain.
: how can a person who knows that the soul is indestructible, eternal, unborn and immutable kill anyone or cause anyone to kill?
: As a person puts on new garments, giving up old ones, the soul similarly accepts new material bodies, giving up the old and useless ones.
: The soul can never be cut to pieces by any weapon, nor burned by fire, nor moistened by water, nor withered by the wind.
: This individual soul is unbreakable and insoluble, and can be neither burned nor dried. He is everlasting, present everywhere, unchangeable, immovable and eternally the same.
: It is said that the soul is invisible, inconceivable and immutable. Knowing this, you should not grieve for the body.
