Christians, have any of you begun to question even a small part of what you believe as a result of this site?

Answer 1

Yes I did at one point. It was a question that some one asked about 607 date that we Jehovah Witness go by. Well I didn't know the answer and the point that they were trying to make. Well if they would have been wright ,I would of had allot of searching to do. But I did some searching and got the answer and every thing was OK. I was happy that I ran across the question. Not only did I learn some thing new. But now I also can give a reply if any one should ever bring it up when I'm out in service.

Answer 2

Yes, don't these people take math?

Probability and Spontaneous Proteins

17 What chance is there that the correct amino acids would come together to form a protein molecule? It could be likened to having a big, thoroughly mixed pile containing equal numbers of red beans and white beans. There are also over 100 different varieties of beans. Now, if you plunged a scoop into this pile, what do you think you would get? To get the beans that represent the basic components of a protein, you would have to scoop up only red ones—no white ones at all! Also, your scoop must contain only 20 varieties of the red beans, and each one must be in a specific, preassigned place in the scoop. In the world of protein, a single mistake in any one of these requirements would cause the protein that is produced to fail to function properly. Would any amount of stirring and scooping in our hypothetical bean pile have given the right combination? No. Then how would it have been possible in the hypothetical organic soup?

18 The proteins needed for life have very complex molecules. What is the chance of even a simple protein molecule forming at random in an organic soup? Evolutionists acknowledge it to be only one in 10 to the power of 113 (1 followed by 113 zeros). But any event that has one chance in just 10 to the power of 50 is dismissed by mathematicians as never happening. An idea of the odds, or probability, involved is seen in the fact that the number 10 to the power of 113 is larger than the estimated total number of all the atoms in the universe!

19 Some proteins serve as structural materials and others as enzymes. The latter speed up needed chemical reactions in the cell. Without such help, the cell would die. Not just a few, but 2,000 proteins serving as enzymes are needed for the cell’s activity. What are the chances of obtaining all of these at random? One chance in 10 to the power of 40,000! “An outrageously small probability,” Hoyle asserts, “that could not be faced even if the whole universe consisted of organic soup.” He adds: “If one is not prejudiced either by social beliefs or by a scientific training into the conviction that life originated [spontaneously] on the Earth, this simple calculation wipes the idea entirely out of court.”13

20 However, the chances actually are far fewer than this “outrageously small” figure indicates. There must be a membrane enclosing the cell. But this membrane is extremely complex, made up of protein, sugar and fat molecules. As evolutionist Leslie Orgel writes: “Modern cell membranes include channels and pumps which specifically control the influx and efflux of nutrients, waste products, metal ions and so on. These specialised channels involve highly specific proteins, molecules that could not have been present at the very beginning of the evolution of life.”14

Answer 3

Absolutely Not. I can't believe how many people do not
understand the Bible or know Christ personally. I'm glad
to answer questions to some of their misunderstood
questions to inform them so they can make better decisions
in life. There is nothing as good as the Christian lifestyle....
the more you give, the more you are blessed in one way
or another. They will know we are Christians by our love.
We should all want to be loved, respected, and blessed.

Answer 4

Nope. This site has had the beneficial effect of making me realize that I need to bone up on my scripture to be better able to answer some questions.

Answer 5

Christians are living in a state of denial. Even a Christian who had a master in Theology put up this question; The bible is full of errors. So why do you trust it?

Answer 6

No but this web site is crazy! people are like in war over questions! someone will ask something about God and someone will say they are a Christian in an answer and people who don't like Christians give them a thumbs down just for that

Answer 7

Thinking Christians should question their faith all the time. Unfortunately, I suspect a lot of the Christians here never do.

Answer 8

No what I believe I believe firmly and no body on this site is going to change my mind especially by being rude the way most of those that bring up issues are.

Answer 9

Not as a result of this site, and not only now. I've been through several other religions, this one just sits better than anything else I've ever found.

Answer 10

You know christians have no intellectual integrity.. and secondly.. admitting to changing their minds would be tantamount to losing a arguement on the internet.

I am pretty sure that in the old testament.. it says something about THOU SHALT NOT LOSE ARGUEMENTS ON THE INTERNETZ FOR IT IS A ABOMINATION.

or something like that ;P
