I guess if someones whole family truely believed there was no god then they might not celebrate the Feast of the Circumcision of Our Lord, but just say maybe it was a kid in the family. Would they celebrate the Feast of the Circumcision of Our Lord, because without Jesus and God there would be no the Feast of the Circumcision of Our Lord, so y would they even bother to celebrate it?

Personally I think they're great people, smart, funny, and tolerant of other religions. So why are they hated so much? Have they done anything wrong?

Okay...my mom is a kinda'/quasi Christian. I'm atheist. She knows that I'm atheist.

She goes to church regularly, it seems (she went tonight, in fact), and while I can't speak certainly about her own personal beliefs and interpretations of Bible doctrine, I believe she believes in the classic (or at least prevalent) idea of Hell being a place of eternal torment for those that don't believe in Jesus/YHVH/thewholepackage and repent. While you and I know Hell is actually the grave (or Sheol in Hebrew), and despite the many Christians that actually know this, many Christians still believe in eternal torment. After all, Rev 14:9-11 and Jesus' parable of Lazarus and the rich man seem to indicate such a possibility.

Ultimately, however, she believes it, and I think she may be worried about me. I love my mom and even though I don't agree with her beliefs, she's happy, so I wouldn't want to change that. But I don't want her to spend the next 10, 20, 30, etc. years of her life worrying.

Dinosaurs were estimated to live around 65 million years ago. God created the Earth in 6 days, according to the Bible. The Bible has no mention of dinosaurs, or of primitive human existence. How could God create the Earth in 6 days, create man on the 6th day, and there is no mention of dinosaurs? The Bible: fact, fiction, or primitive speculation? All answers welcome: Christians, please help to to understand. (No, this isn't a negative attack on Christianity).

I have wanted to be a Family and Marriage therapist for the past 5 years. 6 months ago I accepted Christ and now I want to do all the things God want me to do also I’ve been praying to serve Him and please Him. Now the more i went to my psychology classes, i realized that there is no thought of God when people try to solve world's problems. Then that’s when God told me that I will not be able to help families and couples with psychology. So then I decided that once i finish school, i will go to a Christian grad school so I can learn to solve problems God's way. After that i just prayed that He will work it out for me and I stopped worrying about it. I found peace and started to speak God's word to my room mates and class mate. Now it is the end of the school semester and last night, God reminded me that even though what i am doing is nice, it is not what he wants me to do. I truly believe that he wants me to leave school after that i don't know. This is a hard choice cuz of my mom.

Why are there many Christian denominations that practice 'miracles' like speaking in tongues, slaying in the spirit, prophesying and preach prosperity? Didn't Jesus warn about apostasy in the Last Days?
The Bible says miracles will cease once Scripture is complete. No where does it say that miracles continue until today.

Do you "cop out" and say, "well, that's impossible", or "that's not how it is, so this question is pointless." ?

In other words, if your good book doesn't have a good response, do you feel the question is unworthy of an answer?

China has forced abortion (Google it). Many religious countries have and want forced pregnancies. Nicaragua is one.

I would like to ask for prayer for a young woman who I emailed with some questions after seeing her answer to anothers question that I felt was odd.

She became very defensive, but in the end, the truth came out. I really think God wanted me to keep asking until she was honest with herself about her circumstances since she was painting a "Polly Ana" picture of perfectness.

Her anger towards me was not the intention, and I am sorry that she is upset.

Please pray for her. Thanks.
