If our Joy as Christians was not real and If our outlook on life wasn't real either I don't think you would have people trying to get others to become follower of Jesus

I don't want to be rude!!! but I want to know if it's to convert people into thinking like them, to argue, or are they seeking spiritual answers themselves?

What is the meaning behind it? Do men wear something similar to cover up too?

that Catholics aren't Christians, or aren't "real" Christians? Do these people know nothing about their history? Don't they know what people were protesting when they became "Protestants?" Do they realize there are a few books missing from the KJV of the Bible?

So I am neither an atheist nor a theist, but I want to get your feedback on the following scenario. So evolutionists believe that through the progress of millions upon millions of years, we came into existence (and obviously without the help of a God). That means that intelligence can be created out of nothing, as long as long periods of time are given for it to be produced. So why couldn't evolution produce some all mighty- all knowing being as well?

Evolution produced us, beings who can create computers, drive vehicles, do mathematic calculations, and we keep advancing more and more.

Doesn't it make sense to say that through all the evolutions that make have occured in negative infinity (inifinity before out existence) some sort of God could have been produced via evolution?

As the evolution theory goes........ Homo Sapiens in due course of time which was millions of years, the Apes, our forefathers changed according to the environment and started walking on two limbs, then came Neanderthals and lastly Homo Sapiens developed from them.The main theme is that evolution was caused due to impact of environment, genetic drift, adaptations,natural selection and mutation in the genetic order.Forget about the missing link.

Now while other species of almost all vertiberates both male and female developed in harmony and look alike while in men the female became little smaller than male and her larynx size changed to produce high pitched sound. etc, etc


My question is that while both males and females of Homo Sapiens developed and had to face the same climate and environment over millions of years, why these changes took place differently ?Why didn't both responded similarly to the rules of evolution ?

Did God want us to be different ?

Okay, they don't need any proof to swallow what it is they believe. And yet they deny that emphatically. So therefore they are in denial about something they have no clue of; that's not scientific.

So while they are espousing Atheism, they admit to being unscientific ( ipso facto), and therefore illogical to the Methods of Science. It's obviously important to them, many are here every single day preaching it.

They attribute logic to other things perhaps, but by definition they are irrational and faithful to their beliefs of God's existence.

I would not ask for logic from a people who are by definition wandering away from the very precepts they attest to, and yet living in the conflict of their own denial.

You cannot get a rational answer from such a person whose demeanor is set so deep in denial. They will rationalize their answers; some by avoiding the question, and some by denying the charge.

only approximately six thousand years ago if we, as humans, have been around for hundreds of thousands of years? Does that mean that the existence of the people that lived before this small fraction of an era was pointless?

The pope is creepy and all the other ones are old farts who got nothing to do but put their noses in women's business.
Why can't they shut up and realize that their opinion is completely obsolete nowadays?

Most people say this is from the Bible. Is it? Or is it a 'trick question'? 10 points for the first correct answer.
Just thought I'd challenge you a little. :-)

Seems to me if you can defend your faith or feel confident about it, none of this is necessary.

The concept of Noah's ark as described in the Bible was literally impossible to have actually happened. Why do people still believe in it?

I thought he had some good points. That the early publishing of the Gospels gives them credit. That may have even been 30 years after his death. That even the oral tradition held back them was found to be extraordinarily accurate and of course kept by trained men who memorized the whole tor rah. That Jesus apostles who lived when Jesus was alive died for Jesus sake knowing they were not dying for a lie. More than one disciple died for this cause. The urgency of a Roman guard to keep his post and be alert to keep his post as the grave was guarded. Not to mention all the old testament scriptures Jesus fulfilled. Below follows a link to 365 prophecies fulfilled by Jesus. http://www.bibleprobe.com/300great.htm
or http://www.bibleprobe.com/365messianicprophecies.htm
the chances that Jesus would fulfill all these is mathematically silly. But it happened. The Fulfillment of the New Covenant Prophesied. Jeremiah 31:33-34, Hebrews 8:7-11
So did I leave anything out?

Did anyone see the video of the big muscular white cop manhandling and macing a skinny 15 yr old black girl for breaking curfew.
Didn't he see the total picture? He was totally incompetent. He could not restrain what looked like an 80 lb girl. What would he have done if he were restraining a large man with a gun or a knife?
I thought police long ago were trained to see the total picture. You don't chase someone 100 miles an hour through heavy traffic pursuing someone who parked too close to a fire hydrant.
This big bad white cop manhandled and maced a little black girl for an eternity. She was hysterical. After what seemed liked an eternity, she bit his arm and he emptied a complete can of mace in her face. It was clear his actions were not to defend himself, only to exact vengeance. He could easily have broken her arm. And for what? Because she broke curfew. And now this girl may be traumatized for life. This jerk of a cop is nothing but a big coward

I was always scared of portraits of white jesus as a kid. I have no idea why they creeped out so much...then one day I saw a portrait of black jesus and honestly it wasn't as scary. Then I saw on of black jesus with dreds and it actually felt comforting. I even bought that portrait and hung it in my room for a few years.

Do you like your jesus black or with cream?

Sorry folks, this question is not meant for the Atheists.


I noticed that Atheists mostly come from Christianity and other religions and LEAST from Islam.

Despite this the Atheists denouncing Islam are more famous, more respected and more rewarded & defended by the non-Muslims theists, the world over. e.g. Salman Rushdie,
Taslima Nasrin etc.

My question is " WHY " ?
