All complete whack-jobs. Why aren't there any normal ultra-religious celebrities? Why do the ones in the limelight always have to be so crazy? I know crazy sells, but come on. Surely there are some at least marginally normal ultra-religious people out there to stand up for the normal Christians...Or am I being too optimistic? Is there a correlation between "crazy" and "ultra-religious"?

I do. I have faith. If God is all powerful and can do what He wants, who says that He couldn't make it happen?

Do you believe in the other miracles in the Bible?

I have been sincerely trying to resist this conclusion time and time again – wrestling in my spirit.
Sometimes, I begin to think that it is not important whether it is…and feel I should just dismiss it and simply focus of sharing the Gospel.

But then I question: is it important for the multitude of common people (laity) that are lead astray by Catholic teaching?

And the words of Jesus echo in my mind:
“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you travel land and sea to win one proselyte, and when he is won, you make him twice as much a son of hell as yourselves!”

The Mormons come to mind…as well as the Jehovah Witnesses.
And I see Catholic’s condemning both of these as cults:

As well as Protestants:

BUT, then I see stuff like this regarding Catholicism:

…and it HAS to make you wonder…

It really doesnt matter which one you go to.
As long as you are SERIOUS,Love God and
your neighbor, and read the bible for yourself
, and do what is says, you
can be a good christain,baptist, pentecostal,
catholic, or whatever. In the end... god will judge
YOU, not the church you belong to.
Im sure that same principle could apply to
faiths around the world. it would be a much more
peaceful place to live.

If god is the all able, all knowing supernatural you claim he is. Why would he need Jesus, Mohamed, Moses and all the other 8000 prophets to deliver his messages??, Isn't he able to just implement it in our minds one night as we sleep and would all wake up one morning either all christians, Muslims, Jewish or one of the other 800000000000000 religions in this world. Or does god really just want to have fun and see how many traps he can lay and how many people he can burn in his hell, because he didn't provide enough evidence for them. I got a hand it out to your god, Christians, Muslims, Jews, your god is wicked and really good at keeping himself entertained. What do you real thinkers think of this matter??

According to Acts 1:8 of whom are we to be witnesses?

With you exclusive emphasis on Jehovah, can you honestly say that you are being obedient to Acts 1:8?

To help support this scripture truth also look up....
Acts 2:32 "This Jesus God raised up again, to which we are all witnesses"

Acts 3:15 Jesus is the one "whom God raised from the dead, a fact to which we are witnesses"

Acts 4:33 "And with great power the apostles were giving witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and abundant grace was upon them all"

Acts 13:30 and 31 "But God raised Him from the dead; and for many days He appeared to those who came up with Him from Galilee to Jerusalem, the very ones who are now His witnesses to the people"


According to these passages, were the early Christians witnesses of Jehovah or of Jesus Christ?

I've noticed that even though BAs and fundies are very quick to speak out about sinful things like committed relationships between adults and protecting the environment, they have little to say about gluttony. I find it odd, because they so often back up their "Jesus is against gays" arguments with statistics about how unhealthy gay sex is for society. But not even the most lurid fundie imagination could dream to suggest that gay sex is causing worse health problems for society than obesity.

So how about it? Why is gluttony given a free pass? I know most of you BAs and fundies would be upset if you found out your pastor was visiting strip clubs, but I bet you don't mind if he is 150 pounds over weight and is a regular at the McDonald's Drivethru. Why is that? Why are BAs given a free pass to be crisco gobbling porkies? Why not free passes for internet porn or cruising truck stops for bi-curious action instead?

Sri.Aandal (a Supreme devotee of sri.Krishna),in one of 30 verses, sings "Kanjan vayitru neruppenna"--Kanca the worst enemy of sri.Krishna,all the 60 seconds,60 minutes,24 hours of a day ,365.25 days in a year,all through his life was thinking about sri.Krishna only,because he was worried and terrified when sri.Krishna would come to "finish him off",whereas even staunch devotees of sri.Krishna like sri Naaradha thought about sri.Krishna,maximum a couple of hours a day.So Kanca was finally admitted in Heaven even before sri.Krishna's devotees, who were waiting in the line!!!!

I have seen on many ocassions some christians claiming that catholics are not christian.
This is of course ridiculous as catholics are by far and away the largest single denomination within the christian church.
My question is why do they say this?
Could it be purely because they are jealous of the power and wealth that the catholic church has or maybe it's the number of members?
Your thoughts please.
