I promise you that we have no choice and the truth is one that we do not want to hear or know. See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil. I exist in it's opposite logic. I see evil, I hear evil, I speak evil. Evil is all that I see, hear, speak, know. For those who will take me, I hope you don't blame me, I bring disease. A poisoned mind to rot all minds. "Is God Satan's creation"? Be careful what you type. For things don't always mean the same. Never telling a lie, is not the same as always saying the truth, and vise versa. The time has come, make your choice...if it even exists.

According to the Book of Genesis, God once sent a flood that killed all the land animals on the earth except for a tiny percentage that survived on Noah's boat. These were the same animals that he himself had created, and they had behaved according to the natures he had given them. Despite this, he decided to kill them.

I hope that nobody is dumb enough to think that God had to kill these animals in order to kill human beings. Someone with God's powers could have easily found a way to kill the humans without killing these animals too.

So why did he kill them?

At church the other night the pastor was out and someone stood in, he spoke on faith, some of what he said didn't sit well with me, at least the way I took it, he's a great man so no offence to him. I was inspired though to show what I think and see what other people(even non christians) think about faith in christianity. Should be eye opening.

Faith - wikipedia style -
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faith
To commit oneself to act based on sufficient evidence to warrant belief, but without absolute proof[1]. Mere belief on the basis of evidence is not faith. To have faith involves an act of will. For example, many people saw Blondin walk across the gorge below Niagara Falls on a tightrope, and believed (on the basis of the evidence of their own eyes) that he was capable of carrying a man on his back safely across. But only his manager Harry Colcord had enough faith to allow himself to be carried.

What is Christian faith based on?
I know what mine is based on...

He created his evil when he became jealous / the sin of pride? Who made that possible? Forgive me for my stupid logic, but I don't believe Satan asked to exist. In fact I don't think evil even wishes to exist. I think evil wishes to not exist. Why would God allow evil to exist among the good? Inane logic? Did goodness finally stare it's reflection?

Please note the thumbs up and the reactions to the question (it did get the best answer). I would prefer straight answers. Ad hominem attacks on me for asking the question won't work, since I do not care. I thought murder because of somebody's religious beliefs (no matter who perpetrates that act) was strictly the province of religious fanatics (as we have witnessed so many times before). You learn something new every day.

There are a lot of people here who are not interested in objectively scrutinizing their own beliefs/religion.

Are you one of them?

Take for example this guy who is afraid of skeptic's websites: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Aqo_YIxzemgs5OzwxO03_pzsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20071203091549AAAueWS&show=7#profile-info-OrFglAtjaa

And just the other day I asked if ANYTHING could rock your faith - so many people said "no"... I thought WOW, so you're admitting that your beliefs are not based on evidence, and interpretation of evidence. Isn't it scary how some people think (or don't)

We see both aspect of the christian. Where Christ is His objective righteous, where we stand before God the Father in and by Christ as our righteousness. This is our sure stand.
1 Cor 1:30
" But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became wisdom to us from God, both righteousness and sanctification and redemption"

But then we see another aspect.
Here's a verse.
Revelation 19:8
"And it was given to her that she should be clothed in fine linen, bright and clean, for the fine linen is the righteousnesses of the saints"

Is this not an amazing verse? I believe that this righteousnesses (plural) is subjective.
Please look at the references in Psa 45:13-14 if you have time. Its looks at the church as the Queen and her two garments. One outward one inward. This second garment of fine linen corrisponds with Matthew 22:11-12.
So what I'd like to know is a little bit more about the righteousnesses of the saints as the inner stitching and working of the Holy Spirit in our being.

so far you have asked atheists why they celebrate christmas, or told us that its wrong etc..something to that effect, 601 times. If 20 people answered each time that means youve been told 12,020 times that its a pagan holiday. When will you stop asking such a stupid question?

it really does show us that nothing ever sinks in with you guys.
