I know people come here to discuss R&S but some people post messages saying the Bible is all that is needed. This confounds me because those people come here and preach the Bible. That act itself indicates they have other needs besides the Bible. In fact the Bible tells people not to judge and yet some people really feel compelled to 'save' others so it would seem they actually need more than the Bible. They need attention or affirmation?

xromance misses the point - I don't think the Bible is all you need which is why I come here. Talking about the Bible indicates a need which rises above the Bible itself and I am happy to admit I have that need. In fact I need far more than the Bible....just wondering why people say the Bible is all you need and then prove otherwise.

I totally agree with you on this point,even a book can be dangerous in the wrong hands,especially when it is launched at your every question,I'm sure half of these people hide behind their so called answers because they are quite incapable of deciphering the meaning and are also from my own experiences able to love as Jesus did either, unconditional love and compassion as if you disagree with their ideology you are condemned to hell , not by god but by a bunch of ruthless people wishing to condemn their fellow human beings into purgatory and say they are helping you. love and light

Christ is all we need. The Bible is one of the things we use to get to know him better along with prayer. I don't come here because I need something. I come here to be a witness and to help others understand the Bible better. I pray that maybe at least one of my answers will lead at least one person to Christ.
Your right we are not to judge. The Bible also says that we are to share the truth to others and that we are to point out error in a loving way. There is a fine line there, but it is not judging.

This is pretty lame. I don't think anyone needs YA to supplement their spiritual needs. It is merely a discussion board to get out your opinions and share facts with others. The bible does say "Judge not lest ye be judged", but if my friend comes over and he's really tall, am I wrong to say "dang dude! You're really tall." Of coarse not, I am saying what he really is. The reality is that we all have good and bad things about us, but nobody reacts well when you point out something bad. All anyone wants to hear is good stuff about themselves even if there is nothing good to report.

same as Romans 12: 1-2 above.
Plus you kinda answered yourself in a way. Also, not everyone Understands the Bible or w/e other Book they follow. Just life in General.

I come here because some ask questions about Christianity and the Bible, and if I can help I will.
Why do you come here?, just to criticize the bible and Christians

I think the big picture here is, Why are you in the R&S site?
Can't stand the heat then get out of the kitchen.
Leave them alone. Attest they are in the right domain.
Right where you want them, after all do you see them in the education category where you should be? ;-)
Get the whole picture, If not broke then don't fix it.
Now quit looking for attention or affirmation in their side.

Some people come here because some things they don't understand in the bible, so they ask questions, Some just come because we are bored.

the Bible teaches you to go and share the word of God. Christians spread the gospel, because we wish to share the good news with everyone. We want all of you on here to be our hevenly brothers and sisters. We don't want anyone to have to suffer in hell, so we spread the good news of howwe can be saved. As for just wanting attention? Unlikely, because most people on here despise those of us who have morals, so unless the type of attention they want is to be hated, than I highly doubt those ar their reasons. Phisically, on this earth we DO need mor than the Bible in order to survive. We need air, and water and food. Speritualy we need Gods word alone. Speritualy speaking, yes, that's all we need. But we needing the Bible, also includes folloing the Bible, and the Bible tells us to spread the good news. When a person says all they need is their bible, they are claiming their bible, or the Word of God, to be the most importiant thing to them. And obaying it, which inclueds spreading the good news, goes along with that.

Exactly. Supposedly the Bible is all they need..."Sola Scriptura!"
So why come here with the myriad of dumb religious questions that most atheists and pagans have answers to?
The damned whore, reason!

If you read Bible only , you will become 1.5 Christian.
1 christian + 1/2 Jew
However , if you read all religions , your view & perspective will increase to a great extent.
