What is their political agenda for trying to explain the origins of life? Why are the methods they use "fiction"? It's claimed that scientists use fictational methods as fake evidence that points to evolution or the Big Bang theory. Are scientists controlled by the Devil to destroy the Christian faith?

I would seriously like to know why Creationists think a scientific theory is the "enemy" that you have to destroy.

PS
I only want serious answers, please. Why would scientists make this stuff up? What is the secret agenda scientists have for spreading the "lies" of evolution and the Big Bang theory?

Ok so today our social studies teacher was all like 'Some people believe that jesus did not walk the earth because there is no SCIENTIFIC PROOF'. and then he would say something like "the bible may be holy, but it might not be scientififc, for example, who is there to say that Adam and Eve were the first 2 people on earth? we werent there were we? so how do people know?" so what i am asking you, is 'what is your point of view of this?' what do you believe in more,...Science or Faith/Bible? and if you have a website link or something [not wikepedia] that has ACTUALLY scientific proof that jesus walked the earth, PLEASE give it to me because I would want to show that to my teacher.

Please, Thank You, and May God Bless ^_^

This woman at church is about the same height as her husband but then she wears these high heels and she looks taller and I don't like it. It's like she wants to be over her husband and the Bible says woman is to be under the man. I don't like it at all.

I recently saw an answer from a Jahovas witness woman. I remember talking to a man that said only 144,000 will get into heaven. This woman said the same thing.

If I remember my Bible corectly, it says that the 144,000 will come back with Jesus to rule. It also says that they new not women. That can only mean 3 different things.

1. They will all be female sodimites. In which case, men should not be Jehovas witnesses.

2. They will all be male sodimites. In which case, women should not be Jehovas witnesses.

3. They will all be virgins. In which case, there should be no Jehovas witnesses at all. As soon as you have sex after marriage, you have litteraly kicked yourself out of heaven, so why get married. Even more. No Jehovas witness should be witnessing to anybody because they will want to get to heaven themselves after staying a virgin.

BUT there is a 4th. The men also say that the 144,000 will be men. Why would a woman marry a Jehovas witness man?

Lately, at school and other places, I have been around some agnostic and atheist people.
So, people will start debating about religion.
And some of the agnostics and atheists are telling me things that seem true. Like how christianity is made up and a bunch of different things.
I am really starting to get scared that I am gonna stop believing. I really don't want to stop, but it just seems like it is getting harder to believe.
What can I do?

I just read an answer to a question I answered a few days ago. The answer that spawned this question is so totally out there, but I've read other Q &A's here that seem to at least insinuate that the Jew's who pushed for Christ's death did something they shouldn't have, or that it even somehow condemned ALL Jews forever for the actions of a few.
Am I alone in thinking that there was a plan, and that part of that plan was that Christ had to die. And that even though He voluntarily GAVE His life - no one could TAKE it, that there were circumstances surrounding the WAY, the PLACE, the TIME in which He gave His life that HAD to be fullfilled? That perhaps there were even certain people that had to play a part (for lack of a more reverent phrase) in the course of events?
I've always thought that the people who were there, were there and did what they did for a reason, and that just like today we are here at this time and place for a reason, so where they. That there were people who, for

Homosexuality? In all of 'evolution' two men cannot create a baby...nor can two women. If procreation is physically IMPOSSIBLE...then doesnt that at its most core derivative, classify the 'behavior/preference" as NOT NATURAL and further, that the evidence of it, should be defined as the very least as a highly recurring yet unreproducable 'mutation' that cannot propogate itself unless through 'natural' processes ie..a man and woman?

So has it been decided people fighting to work and not be killed in the only country because of their color is some how related to people wanting to have sex with the same sex. That is insulting to any intelligent mind. This is leeching on a legitemate human right issue to one of personal preference. I don't believe in violence against gays but I am against them coming after our Christian doctrine.

What are your thought on my opinion?

Why does hatred only move in one direction, for me it is because I see those hating the Church as being on the same journey as I? I was once where they were, thinking I hated the Church when in fact I was fighting against the Spirit moving in my life. I failed to recognize that I was being blessed. In the process I have learned more than anything else that it is impossible to love God and His Church and at the same time to hate those who despise His Church. Perhaps it is the fullness of faith, of worship or practice but most probably the exercise of His greatest commandment to love for all humanity for as He loves us we are to love others. The greatest expression of this love and the fruit of our conversion is the antithesis of our flesh which is to love our enemies. For, it is written, the Christian is to love even those who hate His Church. May the Lord bless us all?

In Christ,
Fr. Joseph

I was watching Home Makeover last night where they built a camp for kids that were HIV positive or had parents or relatives that were. One 17 year old stated how hard it had been for her. She was born with it. At one time she was asked to leave a Sunday church service by her pastor.

I think I might have asked the pastor if I could speak and then let them know just what I thought of that and how hypocritical he was. It was a church for God's sake. Everyone is suppose to be welcome no matter what. If you do research, you cannot catch it by sitting in a church pew, hugging or just talking to someone. However, how many times have you been in chruch where someone is coughing, sneezing all over the place. You can catch a cold quicker than anything from someone else.

A few people have told me that jesus died for our sins, and that his death and pain compensated for our sins, and that if it weren't for him being sacrificed that we would all be sent to hell. However, I believe that this is not consistent with a loving and compassionate god. I think that god judges us based on who we are and who we intend to be, not based on who we were or who we have been. I think he forgives people who truely and honestly regret the bad things they have done, and he forgives things that we have done wrong as long as we didnt have the intention of doing wrong, and that even those who have intended to do wrong can still be forgiven just as so long as they are really sorry for what they've done and dont intend to do it again. I don't think god requires a sacrifice to make up for our sins, because if that is so, then that is not true forgiveness. Its compensation. Its not letting it go. Its putting a price for what we've done. Will I go to hell for thinking this way

I grew up in a Christian family. I was baptized and was reluctantly forced to attend Sunday school until I was 11. My parents still go to church every Sunday. Now I am currently agnostic but I am seeking other religious beliefs as potential options in my future. I am just curious, in the eyes of others, am I going to heaven or hell and why? I'm not sure if heaven or hell exist but I’m not positive they don't either. I just want to hear what other people think. (I'm preparing myself for some religious fundamentalists critiques however I’d like everyone and anyone’s opinion =])

"One day the angels [a] came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan [b] also came with them. The LORD said to Satan, "Where have you come from?"
Satan answered the LORD, "From roaming through the earth and going back and forth in it." (NIV Job 2:6-7)

My questionis if God s evil and cannot be in the presence of it, how could Satan be with God?

I'm sure you have all had tough situations in life, and found that being in charge has an appeal. Do you think being in charge of a bad situation is better than being a servant in a good place? What is more important to you, comfort or command?
