Do you have any idea what evolution actually is? Most of you just think that it is that we used to be monkeys... Many atheists know about the basics of creationism. Even though we don't believe in it we still know about it. Don't you think you should actually learn what evolution is.

OK, I understand that churches have the right to do whatever they want, but this man was a combat veteran. He was a hero, no question. So how can this sort of thing not outrage people?

correct? If we evolved from an ape, ape like creature, or monkey, does that mean the older members in your family tree are closer to being an ape than you are? If mankind continues to evolve then changes, however slight, must be continuing all the time. That should stand to mean that your older siblings, parents, grandparents, great great grandparents, etc. etc. are/were closer to being a monkey, ape, whatever, than you are. Is this true?

James J. Strang purportedly from an angel, found and translated some plates, and got 7 witnesses to sign that they saw and handled them. Most of the witnesses to the book of Mormon and Lucy Smith believed him, do you?

I'd like to let my friends know that I'm not so sick now and that everything is reopened. How can I go about doing this? Most of them are from this section.

God is fickle and may change His mind half way up.

Hell is generally depicted as a place of eternal torment. That is, torture.

I recently asked if torture was a sin, and the general consensus so far is that it is wrong, evil, sinful and heinous to torture people. A few answers suggested it might be acceptable under very special circumstances, such as if it were necessary to obtain information that would save lives. But it was generally agreed that torture for its own sake, when no useful information could be obtained, is an evil act.
Here's the link to the question:

Now, this presents a conundrum. If God created Hell (as it is generally described), and chooses to send some people there, then God is torturing people for all eternity, and cannot possibly gain anything from it except perhaps his own perverse enjoyment. If this is the case, and I have seen devout believers on this very site claiming that it IS the case, then God is evil.

Why would such a being be worthy of our worship?

It seems many justified by the law, thereby fallen from grace above, say Peace and Safety in Law worketh Wrath, and don't see sudden destruction coming from law: ministration of death.
