His name is Roger. His gall bladder is 3 times the normal size so he has to have that removed also. Somehow the Dr.'s give him a 70% chance to live. He and his wife are going through tough times and extra prayers are needed.
Thank you.

When you arrange "the BIBLE" differently like this
"ELBI(the)B", a creepy realization is surfaced!

E=Evil, L=Lurks, B=Boldly, I=Inside (the) B=Book

Could it be that the BIBLE or in other words ELBIB is really the book of the devil!!!!??

kill hitlar would you? Would it be morally wrong to kill one person in order to save thousands?

I would do it in a heartbeat, thinking of all the people were killed because of racism. All the soldiers that died because his want for power.

... traveling through the amazon on a missionary travel to convert indigenous people to the simple faith of Jesus Christ. While traveling there, we walked into the wrong territory, cannibal territory. Since we were peace loving Christians we had no weapons to fend them off. So of course they eventually ate us and used our bones for tools and weapons, craving them to fit the specific need.

My question is, on the day of judgment, since my body has been eaten, my bones broken up and craved into various tools, artifacts, and anything left over that is not used would be burned as a part of sacrifice, how would I be resurrected?

Please do not get mad at this question, its not offensive. I want to understand your concept of the resurrection. For example what if after death a Christian sought to be cremated and had their ashes released in space, how would they be resurrected? Hopefully people will not get mad, and have this removed, because its a real question that people need to know!

When you look a painting in a cave that features a man chasing a mammoth, do you think that this painting was created by corrosion, naturally or that it was painted by someone?
I guess you use your logic and say that it must have been painted by someone rather than to imply that it was create by corrosion or that it has formed naturally…
But when it comes to the theory of the big bang most atheists fail to use their logic.
First, they fail to understand the big bang theory.
Second, they fail to use their logic.
It is a fact that the universe is here because we know duh! Therefore it must have had a beginning and a CREATOR.
If we observe around us, we will notice that the laws governing the universe, the laws governing the atoms are so complex and beautiful that they could not have happened by chance, so if we use the same logic as when we deduced that the painting was created by someone, we can conclude that the universe was created by someone as well.

There's literally hundreds of news articles talking about evolution. Why don't these people understand that God done it? and stop wasting their time? The evidence for creation is staggering.

So many times I see an atheist ask, “Why are some or many Christians like this...”
Or I will see a Christian ask, “Why are some or many atheists like this...”

Either way, there will be host of responses like this:
The atheist: “I am an atheist and I am not like this!” with nothing more
The Christian: “I am a Christian and I am not like this!” with nothing more

It is absurd because:
The original asker (whether an atheist or Christian) did NOT ask:
“Why are YOU like this?” Or, “Is there anybody out there that is NOT like this?”
...making the above responses legitimate.

Why not, instead of getting defensive or taking it personally, answer like this:
“Well...I am an atheist (or a Christian), and I am not like this. However, I think some or many atheist (or Christians) are like that because so and so, etc.”
Or:
“Well...I am a Christian (or an atheist), and I am not like this. In fact, I don’t think many are like that, but you are misunderstanding this and that, etc...”

disgusted at how people who go to Church sometimes appear to be having an ***asm when they pray to Jesus?

The negative approach is productive and often used by inspired writers (1 John 3:11,12). We hear about Christ's death and consequent results, but what is Christ had not died> What would we be losing out on, besides love (the greatest word a Christian uses)?

Everything you think you know about your religion comes from a mere book?! A book! Just a plain poorly translated book?!

Seriously there is only a book... Nothing else!
No research, no data, no testing...
All you can say to back up an argument is "read the bible"!


You read it, or it was read to you when you were a kid, and you simply think its true?!
I will NEVER understand this... unbelievable.

I am not an atheist, and I am not trying to start a religion argument, just seeing what the reasons are for why people believe in angels, and if you dont, explain why.

The "we" and "us" in Genesis are what are called the "Royal We", which is when a monarch refers to themselves in the plural. It is actually quite common, and has nothing to do with the Trinity.

Jews are very very strict in belief that GOD has no partners and is ONE (Singular).

1. God gives us suffering as punishment?
problems: Conflicts with the idea of an all loving God.
If you try to apply this to moral evil then you will loose free will.
2. God gives us suffering to test our faith?
problems: conflicts with our idea of an all loving God.
Apply to moral evil, loose free will.
3. God gives us suffering to help us learn, to teach us lessons?
problems: Challenges all loving God.
Moral evil-loose free will.
4. We are creatures with free will thus we will make choices that cause suffering for ourselves and others?
problems: applies only to suffering cause by moral choices.
Challenges the idea of an all loving God.
5. Nature operates according to the laws of nature?
problems: Applies to physical/mental/natural suffering and finitude. But it doesn't apply to moral choices. Does not have a God that applies to nature. God does not intervein.
Challenges the idea of an all powerful God because he does not intervien with nature.
