no, this doesn't make sense. So you're saying 1+1=2 is only for some people who believe it to be true because we can't know for sure. It's not for everyone. We can only hope so. Truth is relative is what you're saying. I'm saying truth is absolute. Truth is truth. Regardless if you believe it to be or not. You may believe the sky is neon pink....doesn't make it s

ok, but don't your beliefs change over time if you're basing it on what makes sense to you now? What you believe when you're 20 is not the same belief you'll have at 40. Isn't that sort of like shifting sand? It's not something you can in all reality hang onto for the rest of your life is it? What I'm saying is isn't it better to investigate what the truth really

For example, i believe it was in the book of genesis, there was a point where Adam and Eve's children were told to go find wives/mates....where'd they come from since there isn't any mention of any other beings having existed at the time. (Sorry, this is coming from memory, bible study, years ago...) Read the bold, I never said i was

Give up, in him finding God your way? Well, it's not MY way. It's HIS way. Just don't shoot me ok? What if, there was more than just one way? am I supposed to answer this? Christ did say HE was the only way. So again...don't shoot me ok? Oh no, I won't. No worries there, i understand that you're just a messanger. I

Ah, I see. Personally, I believe that both evolution and creationism work well hand in hand. My belief, albeit unorthadox, on it is that they're both tools of God. We were created, and we evolved. Simple. Anywho, whatever floats your boat KFC. Peace, ~Lucas

and what year are we talking? What area of the world? It's not going to change my answer tho. We are saved the same way. By faith. It never changes. There's no diff way. There's no magic solution. It's all a matter of faith. Believe in God by faith. So, you're saying that neanderthals, ignorant of God, would've still been saved? <br/

And I'm giving you the answer. Starting with Abraham.....a Hebrew that started it all. He was told by God and looked forward to the promises of God starting in Gen 12. The whole Isaac as the sacrifice thing was all pointing to the day that God would offer his own son. So yes, they were saved back then just as we are now. It all points to the cross. <b

well Baker, there's one thing I'm not ever gonna change........and that is YOUR mind. You kind of remind me of Thomas lately. You know the doubter? He doubted his beliefs and believed his doubts. But later he made the the best declaration of God than any other including the brash and bold outspoken Peter........ there's still hope for you yet........I for on

A family lives on a small island in the middle of the Pacific that has been ignored by the rest of the world for centuries. They have never been exposed to Western society in any form. They are all good people who live in peace, treat each other with the utmost of love, and have never held an evil thought. God condemns each and every one of them to Hell beca

the same way as we do now. Before Christ came they looked forward to the cross like we look back. I'm sorry, but I don't buy it. I'm talking about before "the way," before christianity, judaism. Another example, during the time of neanderthals, or the like. Did they have "the way"? Nope, so....they got to....fry in hell? <br/

I believe there is only one way to heaven and you know that no matter where you are in the world. I disagree. Before christianity; explain to me how we, human beings, know the way to heaven?

So according to you there are no healthy nations in the world? IMO, I agree, there are no healthy nations. Lets think about this for a sec, healthy implies things are running smoothly in a decent, if not optimum fashion. Economy, Social equality, Politics, etc... Can you tell me, honestly, that there is a nation in the world

Presumably you don't believe everything you read in the bible then, which, you'll be glad to know, makes you no fundie. Rejoice, ye merry spoonshifter.

Hmm, wasn't it God, not Satan, who ordered Abraham to sacrifice Issac to 'prove' his loyalty? Looking at this from another pov...At least Issac would be in heaven then, hopefully. (If not, guess it would suck to be him.) <TD class="mb-Body-Quot

Banning words? *sighs* What next? Friggin' waste o' time i think.
