Religion & Spirituality - 21 September 2007

I've done the counting and stats on this...out of 100 posts, 92 (that I've counted) have been arguments for/against Christianity? Why do you think Christianity is the most talked about subject on this forum and not some other religion? We could just as easily argue the beliefs for or against some other religion...why choose to argue about Christianity?

Serious question, I'm very interested in your thoughts on this.

Can anyone please tell me where in the bible it says about "Women not being preachers and standing in the authority of men"?

Is a possibility of CLimate Changes coming from the SUN.
Honeybees and Sunspots may be interacting
in November of bees mysteriously disappearing. Not just one or two, but entire colonies of tens of thousands of bees at a time. As temperatures have warmed and it has become safe to open hives, the extent of losses is grave:
Sunspots follow an approximate 11-year cycle, corresponding to increases in solar activity. This solar activity causes geomagnetic effects during the peaks, but effects on earth’s magnetic field also occur during the minimums. Using these observations, scientists have predicted that the next solar maximum, expected to peak in 2010 to 2012, could be the most intense ever
if this were not enough, the results imply that bees can perceive quarks, thereby interacting with the quantum world without disturbing it in the ways both observed and predicted by quantum theory
QUANTUM Conscious Observer that manifested reality? GOD....
Thoughts?

Can you say this will full assurance knowing that He IS indeed Lord?
1 Corinthians 12:3
Therefore I tell you that no one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says, "Jesus be cursed," and no one can say, "Jesus is Lord," except by the Holy Spirit.

Or perhaps he's as subtle as the serpent?

Why hasn't he shown his powers to crowds in despair? Why won't divine manna rain on famine-ridden Africa?

Why are those godly tricks only recorded in the Bible (and some humans even manage to see and talk to God)?

Why does the rest of the expansive known universe exist if Earth is the only planet with life and is a gift from a god?

If you are Christian and believe there may be life on another world somewhere, please tell how you came to that thought and if it has any biblical reference.

If you DO have a reason WHY there is this expansive universe please tell how you came to that thought and if it has any biblical reference.

Thanks in advance and please just answer the question/questions asked. If you would like to ask me a question, post it as a question in the forum.

did you know when you sell food to atheists, you allow them to receive the nourishment they need in order to sustain their lives and thus go out into the world and spread logical thought which denies the existence jesus or any god that matter? way to support atheism!!! and seeing as how atheism is growing faster around the world every day, you're doing a bigger part to support the growth of atheism than we atheist are doing to help spread the gospel.

why do you fear to beleive in Jesus Christ? If you would just give it a try, with a sincere heart, with faith that he could exsist, maybe this could be a wonderful, calming thing in your life. Give it a try!

I was raised to go to church every Sunday, and be a good Christian. But something happened a few years ago to change all of that.

My parents have always been very abusive, mentaly and physically. Which doesnt make sense, because they were supposedly very religious, right? I know, I agree. Anyway, one night (I was 19) my dad really beat me badly, and I ran away from home. But that wasnt even the worst part.

My father was arrested becase I was so badly battered. Between then and the day he went to trial, my entire extended family dissowned me. NO ONE would talk to me or see me. Why, you ask? They said it was becasue I had sinned by having him arrested. But the thing is, I had NOTHING to do with that. Its mandatory that the cops arrested him, becasue there was physical evidence on me. And even if I HAD turned him in, he deserved it!!

I am a Christian farmer. I am a member of a fundamential Baptist church that supports missionaries around the world. I give a portion of my income to support missions. Therefore when you buy food that has farm products in it, a portion of your money comes back to me so I continue to support missionaries who spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ . Thank you! Will you stop eating now?

I am going through a really rough time in my marriage right now. My husband has fallen to satan and worldly ways. He is entangled in sin and temptation. He does not know how to get out or just isnt ready cause satan has a tight hold on him. I love him though and decided that I will stand by my husband and pray diligently for God to work on my husband and bring him back to me a strong, faithful and commited husband and christian. Any advice or scriptures to be given for strength and power and endurance as I go through the hardest thing in the world? Also, please pray for my family and my husband. He is acting in a worldly, satan bound manner and that is not him. I know the real, good and true christian and husband that he is. Thanks for all your help in advace.

Israeli Population – 6 Million
US Tax Dollars Per day to Israel – 10 to 5 Million.

CIA World Factbook: https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/is.html

Population: 6,426,679
note: includes about 187,000 Israeli settlers in the West Bank, about 20,000 in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights, and fewer than 177,000 in East Jerusalem (July 2007 est.)

American Financial Aid to Israel:

2006 : Military $2.28 Billion, Economic $290 Million

Total of $2.57 Billion

Is the Equivalent of $428.33 per Israeli citizen for that year.

300,000,000 Americans give $8.56 to the 6,000,000 Israeli’s

That just doesn’t seem fair.

I am 40, I have been giving Israel anout $8 per year tax and interest free for about 25 of those years.

I figure with interest I am owed $225.00 - Can I have it back?

HOw could you think that God created the big bang and just left it to do whatever it wants?? How can you believe God is and yet think that he wouldn't have any power in the creation of the world? That he caused the big bang to happen yet left it to do it's own thing? Where is His power in that?????
