How can science explain why things were created? And I don't accept other relgion's reasons for why because of problems I have with the other religions. If I don't believe what the rest of the religion says, why would I believe what it says about creation?
Science has shown that were made out of dust just like the bible and they have also done experiments in trying to prove evolution but they failed. Also many tests year after year the age of earth would change. 4 billion, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 12, etc. years. Rescently they have discovered that the universe is made of subtomic particals.
This is an uneducated statement because I've heard nothing but contradictions of evolution from evolutionists and creationists. The fact that there is still apes is one of millions.
Since when are diests not a subset of Christians? I consider myself both a Christian and a Diest, though I have a fairly unique set of beliefs. I don't see why the belief that God designed the world for us to try to understand excludes the belief in Jesus as savior.
Proponents of "choice" don't want to force women to have abortions? Since when? China does it now. And if you think for a minute that justifying abortion morally and legally does not translate into forced abortion as a realistic means of population control in the future, then you are not being honest with yourself.
Ok heres the truth. Evolution is false, and Creation is true. You ask how's that. Well First off Im a Chistian and I know that God Created the Universe, and second how can something so Beautiful just appear like that? Its impossible. I mean Baseball or Basketball or cars just didnt appear just like that they have to be thought about and then they have to be created. So thats my explanation.
i used to think pot was cool, that was until i basically learned it was a harmless substance, then im thinking what is so cool about something as soft as pot. it is a pussies drug for people who are too scared to anything harder, and if they do that, then they're just an idiot.
Why do you think a homosexual lifestyle doesn't hurt others? I believe a homosexual lifestyle does affect others, just like pornography, masturbation, and smoking pot hurts others. [Emphasis added]
Christians do not think science is useless, we just interpret the facts in a different yet completely rational way. God created things with the appearence of age. Please show me how the existance of a God is irrational.
let me break it down
If u call urself a democrat u believe...
Abortion is always ok
we should never use missles or go to war
no one but cops should carry guns
we should make pot legal(yes its true)
gays and lesbians can marry
If u call urself a republican u believe...
Abortion is wrong in every sense of the word
there are times for war and times to use missles
u should have a gun if u are responsable ITS OUR RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS
all drugs are wrong period
gays and lesbians shouldnt marry nor adopt children
I PERSONNALY hate our goverment system because it is run by democrats almost and when democrats ran the country they pass all the stupid laws so yea im a republican
If i could stand there personally and show you, 666 is in the barcode... its not something you can just glance at and be like 'oh hey there is 666 this bag of chips is doomed to hell!!! hahaha' If it was that obvious it probly would be harder to market. Its there though i promise and go ahead and mock me... Its ok i got no hate for ignorance just no understanding.
[Replying to thread started by another Christian; the topic title was provocative, but what was said was that the Bible should be respected but taken with a grain of salt because it was written for the ancients]
too long, didnt read, but i completely disagree with your thread title and it doesnt matter what you wrote, because you can never prove that your right. so shut up and stop trying to destroy the faith of the people that truly believe in the bible. your really stupid if you tink you can convince people that the bible is wrong, because its not wrong, its right because i believe its right.
Thinking without the bible is like a carpenter trying to work without his tools.
one thing that always intrigues me is time is based on Jesus and his walk to the cross... [He] must of been doing some cool [CENSORED] to be that important that time is based on his very existance...
the thing about Jesus is that he declared himself to be the only way... he is either self centered or God in the flesh. you can guess what i think about Him. krishna and allah lead to Hell. follow them if you want to.
If I were to serve you dinner, and you asked for table salt, or sodium chloride, and I gave you sodium and chlorine, I could go to jail (if you inhaled too much chlorine). There is a substantive difference between the parts and the whole - most people recognize that. Once a sperm has fertilized an egg - everything is there, it is whole, just immature.
He can not be disproven either!!
Faith is all we need to belive and have proof of GOD.
although i can not prove God YOU can not disprove GOD. Thank you.
geez why are u all so thick headed u dont have faith? or too lazy to belive? plz read the proof! The bible.
I know that I was asked to remove my signature which said 'DARWINS MOTHER WAS AN ASS' by the moderators which kinda pissed me off, but it's not mysite so I did what I was asked.
I am constantly being attacked with depression,
anger and lust and even family problems along with money issues.
I am very happy for that cause it tells me that I am a threat to
satan
The kind of macro evolution we are taught in schools says that we came from: *drum roll please* NOTHING!!! That nothing EXPLODED!!! (how does nothing explode?) and turning into PLANETS and the STARS!!! which got RAINED ON!!! for a few billion years!!! which turned it into PRIMORDEAL SUOP!!! which evolved in TWO CELLS!!! of DIFFERENT GENDERS!!! which FOUND EACH OTHER!!! in all that primeordal soup. Quite a trick, if you ask me... which takes more faith, Believing THAT, or believing that God created in 6 literal days, as it states in Genisis.
[On infants dying of horrendous, torturous birth defects]
Chew on this.
Innocent child is brought into this world! This child is terminally ill and will not survive. This child has not yet had the oppurtunity to sin or lead a sinfull life whatsoever.
Thusfare, the child dies (in wordly fashion) and goes to GOD's kingdom.
Meaning no life of sin, but an eternity of eternal and everlasting life!
[To another poster who was arguing sex before marriage isn't wrong]You want a wife who has it open like a 7-11. Not only that you want everyone else to whore it up so you can feel better about yourself. And we wonder why divorce is up? You give std's a bad name!
[Replying to 'if someone had a gun to your kid's head and asked if you believed in God']
Trust in God. All things work for his Glory and it will be best in the end. Thus, never deny God. If your child is killed he won't have to go through the hardships of life and is with the lord so double bonus to him.
My point from the beginning was that STD's are God's way of preventing pre-marital sexual relations. My point also was STD's are God's way of preventing homosexuals from having sex.
It is equally plausible that the evolutionists won't acknowledge the age of the earth because they feel that doing so would contradict the Darwinian, Huxleyan and Leakian truths that they hold so dear.
except for the fact that God does not hear the prayers of the unsaved...
i cant stand evolution(ists). its just so stinkin crazy...i dont need to argue, its common sense that it aint possible.
I think the world they [atheists and liberals] envision can probably be put into words, as in the book 1984. If you haven't read the book, I suggest you do so. It will open up your eyes to what the future holds for us if the true Christian religion is forever banished from this planet.
Ted Bundy didn't see anything wrong with it [porn] either. Neither do most serial killers.
i cant stand fags. ive been hit on by a fag before and i darn near knocked him unconscience. homosexuality is way wrong.
An athiest tried to take OUR GOD out of the Pledge. An athiest tried to take OUR GOD off our currency and that is what this country was FOUNDED ON! Oh, it's true.
I believe what I believe becus it has to be. There is no other way, there can't be. I've seen ppl break down in tears during prayer. I've seen ppl told they can't have children, and then be blessed with two daughters.
It may have an extreme generalization about all democrats being traitors. But to say that she dosen't get her facts straight is in need of some more proof. That was an outstanding book. She defends Joe McCarthy, who became one of my heroes after reading that book and doing some other research. Talk about a true patriot.
Homosexuals can change, its just hard because by the time they actually realize they like their own sex they have already lived that way for a long time. If its really not possible to change, then you better hope it never happens to you because the bible does say that homosexuals arent allowed to live.
[On the Shroud of Turin]
From what I watched on the tv show and what the Bible say, Jesus was raped in it for 3 days and then He rose from the dead.
you can cloak yourself in a fantasy world that there is no god, and live without god that's okay thats your choice
What is it with the whole Christian/Catholic thing. Never have i been so confused as when I asked someone if they were a Christian and they replyed I'm a Catholic, I asked the same Question again and i got a blank expression from the person I asked.
[Replying to 'can people be blinded by faith?']By religions, yes, by Christianity, no. Being a Christian is a personal relationship with God. Before people get saved they are blind to the truth. But, once they get saved, they are no longer blind to the truth.
[Replying to the book 'Rush Limbaugh is a Big Fat Idiot']For one thing, no matte if you like him or not, he is very intelligent. Maybe he dosen't use his intelligence to say things YOU like... and another thing, he is no longer fat...he's lost alot of weight...
[After a person complains 6 guys beat him up]
i felt sorry for you till you said you were gay. try reading the bible."
[Probably wondering about Bible verses describing Satan as the 'prince of the powers of the Earth']
This may sound stupid but it's food for thought none the less.
If Satan is behind all temptation and works the ground of the earth then wouldn't temptation be non existent in space, since Satan is not in space but on earth?
So basically what I'm saying is did the people who went into space (Armstrong, Space station etc) ever feel tempted by anything ungodly?
If they didn't well then that proves temptation is from satan but if they did then I think that can be explained by inner demons... of which we all have.
Any thoughts?
Eh, this has been argued to death and will probably be argued further to death. *gets out stick, beats the dead horse that evolved from a dog*
im very sorry if you find me to be hostile and offensive with my words, i just stand by my beliefs like gollum and the one ring
Most of you atheists are full of crap with your "scientific research". Admit it, at least 99% of you simply go to an atheist website and copy & paste whatever you think will peeve off a Christian that is immature or misinformed about the faith. Grow up and stop wasting your time here. Bashing baby Christians DOES NOT make you intelligent. Furthermore, go do some REAL studies." "Christians (or prospective Christians), quit looking for theological answers on the internet. You have churches in your local area for a reason. If your church doesn't have the answers, then go to another one, you're at the wrong church." "Concerning evolution, it should not be confused for adaptation. Adaptation to the environment and other such factors is a reality for all species. God knew what He was doing when He created us all. Adaptation is certainly acceptable to Christian theology. Evolution and Christianity, on the other hand, are not compatible. Don't like it? Too bad. Get over it.
I just took a college class called "Music In World Cultures". Some of what we discussed dealt with how tribal and religious cultures use music in their spiritual rituals. Some work themselves into a frenzy, and eventually go into trance...or more appropriately labeled, possession.
The truth is that Christians know all too well of the danger of hell. Its one of the main reasons I became a Christian; for the fear of going to hell (call me selfish).
And you're right, if there is no God, then there is no reason for the universe. We would be a cosmic accident and by all standards we would be insignifgant nothings. Which means we are still no better then worms, which means Hitler, Pol Pot and Sadaam Hussein have done nothing wrong.
Now many scientists believe that the earth was created BILLIONS of years ago. But how can it be, if they never actually see it shape? They only think their thory is right. In the Bible, the Earth was created fully, in seven days. Much less time than the evolution theory. And besides, if we evolved from monkeys or apes, no monkeys or apes would be around because all of them evolved! It's really simple to say, oh, we can believe in both [divine creation and mainstream science]. But do you think it's right? Certainly not!!!!
[On humanist morality]You say that if something hurts someone, then it is wrong. You dont believe in God and that hurts.
and for all the aetheists.... WHY IS THERE PROOF OF A GOD WHO IS KNOWN TO 'not exist'? Answer that with THOUGHT AND A GOOD AMOUNT OF CAUTION...
