Is the Spear of Destiny aka The Spear of Longinus a real holy relic? Is it mentioned in the Bible? If it is mentioned in the Bible did it really kill Jesus in his crucifiction?

When people quote the bible because you did something wrong and they want to show you what the good lord would say, they read the lines verbatim and the meanings are exact.

However when you ask the blind believers about the genesis (beginning pages of the bible), many are quick to say that these words and sentences should not be taken at face value, etc...

Good old double standards if you ask me.

BTW according to the stories in the bible, god first created Adam and Eve, yet we now know beyond any doubt that dinausors existed on earth well before mankind... At least according to the bible!

We could discuss this forever and ever but if God truly exists (which I don't believe), don't you think He could solve this issue instantly for now and foreever and turn us all poor souls into believers and followers by just appearing. Oh I forgot, it is all about faith! The great answer that solves every argument... It is all rubish!

Exod. 24:9,10; Amos 9:1; Gen. 26:2; and John 14:9
God CAN be seen:
"And I will take away my hand, and thou shalt see my backparts." (Ex. 33:23)
"And the Lord spake to Moses face to face, as a man speaketh to his friend." (Ex. 33:11)
"For I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved." (Gen. 32:30)

God CANNOT be seen:
"No man hath seen God at any time." (John 1:18)
"And he said, Thou canst not see my face; for there shall no man see me and live." (Ex. 33:20)
"Whom no man hath seen nor can see." (1 Tim. 6:16)

A person who believes all that is, and all that exists, and all that has happened- The very essance of nature and the way the world happens, due to the will of nothing more than natural random occurances, is god. Technically these people are atheists, they aren't theistic and don't believe in a supreme Deity; BUT they believe god is a term used to describe everything in existance...Help?

A true atheist (at least from the thousands I've seen on this site) revels in the misery of their counterparts, and enjoys mocking their supposed narrow-minded delusions. Sure they want them to think like they do, but only after realizing how stupid they once were.

A true Christian prays for their counterpart, and would like nothing more than to welcome him or her into the fellowship. Even the truest of Christians will lose their temper and say something harsh, but how long can patience last when the mocker is continually sabotaging the party, even though he has an invitation?

Matt.27:46,50: "And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, "Eli, eli, lama sabachthani?" that is to say, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" ...Jesus, when he cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost."

Luke23:46: "And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, "Father, unto thy hands I commend my spirit:" and having said thus, he gave up the ghost."

John19:30: "When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, "It is finished:" and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost."

there was a set of identical twins boys born. since they began to play with toys one boy liked trucks and cars and robots etc, when the other boy just wanted to play with dolls... as they got older one boy had his room decorated like the typical boy but the other desperately wanted bright colours, more associated with girls, and pink fur and princesses. this is not the only story of such behaviors. a small kid doesnt understand the implications. this is how they were born. parents have a hard time excepting it, and so is society...
open minded opinions please
close ones welcomed too...
there has also been evidence of homosexuality in animals. and transgendered kids. what do you think causes all this confusion at such a young age?

How will you feel about god doing this to us? Its because we don't believe, but people of other religions are usually raised in their religion, and atheists simply have had no reason to believe. And for that we are sent to an eternity of torment?
