Religion & Spirituality - 18 June 2007

you people cant handle it and accept the fact that we're right.. you come here not to "discuss" or "challenge" but just to ridicule and insult... thats all you do, all you can do when answering any questions by us. The only questions we ask that can be answered using "facts" are about creationism annd... that's about it. everything else is based on our faith and all you can answer to that is BS that is irrelevant to our questions.

face it, you are all ignorant to our beliefs so therefore makes it impossible to answer any questions regarding it so all you do here is persecute and discriminate.

And if that's that case doesn't that make you horrible people?

have great political power for a short time. These kingdoms were not in existence in John's day. They will come into existence at the end of the Church Age and will have power when the Antichrist appears in the end times.

The 10 horns are not in unity (Dan. 7:7,8), and 3 will be forced into giving power and authority to the Beast. Do you think the 3 horns could possibly include some of these countries: USA, Britain, Canada, Spain or Ireland? What world Empire is the Beast?

I mean, we live good lives and contribute to society not because we’re afraid of hell or because we want to go to heaven, we do it because that’s simply the way we are. Doesn’t that mean that atheists can hold their heads a little higher than believers who need to be threatened with punishment and promised a reward to be good?

Without Constantine using the christian cult to consolidate power, christianity probably wouldn't even exist today.
The christian cult was gaining in popularity (Mostly due to being 'persecuted' by early Roman Emperors. Refuse something to someone and they'll want it more.) Constantine used this cult to eliminate the power base of his competition in the pagan cults. By supporting the christians and lowering the status of the pagan religions, he was able to use his new cult to further control the population.

Constantine wasn't baptized until he was on his death bed. He only associated the christian god with his pagan god Sol Invictus and if it wasn't for the fact that his mother was a christian he most certainly would never have supported the christian cult.
But I wouldn't expect any of the 'true believers' to actually learn where their religion came from.

What is reality and how do we know if it exists if we've never experienced fantisy. if you can't answer that, how do you know what is fiction if you can't tell the difference between that and reality?
It says in the bible that our minds can't comprehend what we cannot imagine... that's why some say God doesn't exist. But for those who do believe in a creator, than you must believe in fairies and gnomes and pixies and all that other stuff too because you've never seen God, but you know he exists. If you mind can comprehend a god, than why not so called "mythical creatures"? they may not be so mythical. can u answer that, huh?

I would say put aside your faith , your religion, and read the Bible like a novel, a tale, a story.

Please do not jump into conclution, my question is Have you or Have you Not.

Thank you.

Just because we're different doesn't mean you have to hate us. Also, if you hate someone for being different then you're not a very good christian.

here's the situation-you're at a banquet honoring exceptional teachers and education support professionals (aides, bus drivers, admin folk, custodians, cooks) for your school system-the banquet is held on school property. the superintendent of schools, is the host, the school board is at the head table...just before dinner is served, a teacher (who is also a pastor of a local baptist church) stans up and asks everyone to bow their heads for the benediction, in which he thanks God for all those in attendance, asks for blessing over the food, and concludes with 'in the name of Christ we pray, Amen.' later on, the musical portion of the evening consists of gospel singing by one of the assistant principals, during which the audience is asked to join in 'if you want'...what i'm wondering is, how would you react?

a) enjoy the good food, applaud the honorees, and have a good time?
b) silently go along, hoping it's over soon?
c) threaten to sue?

organize themselves? I believe that God designed, planned and spoke all this into existence and we are just at the tip of the iceberg in learning the mysteries of life through science.

Do you guys use it as more of a gentle warning? Maybe you see it as a “truth” and you seek to inform your children of a danger and gently guide them away from it? Isn’t that just a nicer way of putting what is still in essence, a threat? Especially considering, for example; a car reversing down a driveway is a perceivable danger and ones children should most definitely be warned of it, but hell is not perceivable and is not a danger to life at all, so the only purpose of its existence is as a threat, do you follow my logic? And if you think God or Jesus or whatever other omnipotent being you believe in protects you from hell, then why mention it at all? The fact that the choices one makes throughout life affect whether or not one goes to hell can only mean that hell is used as a threat to make one more likely to make what are believed to be the rights choices, can’t it?

"There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men...." Genesis 6:4

"And there we saw the giants ... And we were in our own sight as grasshopper, and so we were in their sight." Numbers 13:33

"The Emims dwelt therein in times past, a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakims; Which also were accounted giants...." Deuteronomy 2:10-11

That also was accounted a land of giants: giants dwelt therein in old time; and the Ammonites call them Zamzummims; A people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakims; but the LORD destroyed them. Dt.2:20-21

This is like the Masons taking over a church with their doctrines so the real church dies and then you have the Masons left.
