Your interpretation? The Bible is written in plain English these days. Unless you've taken a bottle of whiteout and a sharpie to your Bible I don't see how interpretation is an issue.

If you compare the Mein Kampf to the Qur'an, you'll discover they're nearly identical
As I discuss the topic of masculinity more and more with women, it becomes apparent that a large number of women quite frankly want feminine men (Or women with male parts - however you want to look at it). They just want men to be "good boys;" the next Mr. Rogers. Half of them hoping for a man uninterested in sex, or at least as little interested as she is. If men were lions, these women would clip their claws, inject them with estrogen, and put them on a leash.
Why are so many women interested in feminine men? Could it be that such a man harbors everything she wants: a woman companion but with male parts? I'm sorry, but a man who likes to knit sweaters, wear pink, watch sappy movies all day long, paints his toenails, carries a purse, likes fluffy animals and hates action movies... the guy is a mere shadow of a man. I'm sorry, ladies, but there is more to being a man than having a rod. If that's all you crave from a man, you really don't desire a man at all.
Tell me, ladies, what do you desire in a man? Is there anything masculine at all or is the only reason you're choosing to date a man over a woman because of the y chromosome they carry and the biblical commands that follow? It's sad indeed to see so many women craving feminine men. I suspect at this rate, most men will be feminine some time in the future, and people will ask themselves, "Where have all the real men gone?" I'll then spit in my grave in response: you asked them to be women.
[There is no male or female in Christ (Gal 3.27-28)]
For now:
That's referring to
-SALVATION-
(please look up the context, even)
-ONLY-.
Otherwise
-SAME SEX 'MARRIAGES'-,
would be o.k with God
(after all, there is 'neither male, nor female')
Same sex 'marriages', are
-NOT- o.k. with God,
by the way.
Also, much of what you spek of is in the Old Covenant:
You know, the place where
God used a
-DONKEY- ,
to instruct Ballam (Numbers 22)
Do you feel we should place
'donkeys behind pulpits'
to teach?
If so, I disagree with your hermanutic.
['Would Al Gore Have Won The Election?']
In 2000 God intervened. Just the little bit that I have read about AG's activities since he left the VPcy has been chilling to me. He is involved in power at a higher level than the national level; to be the US President would be a step down for him. I believe that's why he didn't run. Not interested.
We Calvinists rightly believe that all of mankind fell in Adam into sin and rebellion against God, a rebellion that is actively pursued by even infants. Thus, it was entirely just to kill the little ones and infants, even if they were not actively rebellion in the matter of their parents.
[Should I wear a chastity belt to stop masturbation?]
Maybe not a chastity belt (not very practical/hygienic) but there are other devices you can get. My fiance has one, it goes round the base of his xxxxx and just sits there until he gets aroused, then it has teeth that stick in and hurt him so he turns his mind to something else. Plus, for obvious reasons it can't be removed by a guy who's in that condition.
Personally I think it's terrible that he has to wear that thing, it hurts him a lot at times and he bleeds, but we're sharing a home together now and not married and we've promised each other nothing immoral will happen and he feels it's the only way he can keep on the right path
Thank God I'm not a liberal. It must be hell going through life that constantly miserable.
can science prove itself?
Dinosaur bones are the remains of animals that were created by God for use by earthbound demons, Satan included. In successive destructions over billions of years, usually by great flooding, God destroyed them.
Science misinterprets these incarnations of punishment, calling them evolution.
God still allows demons to influence animal behavior, as is evident by the horrible, bloody carnage taking place in all levels of the animal world.
Thus God hisself buried dem bones.
[discussing "modesty in clothing"]
...or muslim women....
seriously, muslim women/girls in general seem much more appealing to me than "chirstian" women/girls in the aspect that they leave it all to be dsired and save EVERYTHING.. except for like maybe their hands or sometimes arms...
but they cover their legs, faces, etc. and only guys get to see it on their wedding day, now thats what I'd like to find..*sigh*
Not sure why it makes no sense that sin passes from the male , since sin was accounted first to adam even though eve first took the forbidden fruit ...then Christ was born of a virgin , why does it make no sense that some genetics are only passed from the male and not the female ? It makes perfect sense to me .
The problem with "pro-choice" is that it's not reserved for those noble exceptions like rape, incest, the life of the mother... rather, it has become a business (precisely why this pastor probably got so upset)... huge business that hands out condoms that are rated most ineffective to prevent pregnancies when compared to the effectiveness of store-bought condoms, in the hopes that one more teenager might become pregnant and have to abort.

umm you sent them your DNA? are you begging for someone to steal your identity?
Evolution does not say organisms evolve based on whether or not the change will cause more reproduction. I don't know where you got that.
[Let's say that everyone jumps on the ID band-wagon. Let's say we all agree that beyond this physical and natural universe...Now that we all accept ID, where do we go from here?]
to heaven, thats the only thing that matters
even monkeys arent foolish enough to accept evolution instead of a god. if they were designed like us even they would believe in a god. those animals are given so much credit that if one suddenly spoke and said "i believe in Jesus" the evolutionary theory would go right down the tubes
the sad fact is hovind and ham probably know more about evolution, geology and biology than most "athiests" know aboutl...
Thinking about it, another change in a merged universe is gravity. There, -why would the distance between, or size of PO [Physical Only] objects matter? There are no PO objects! Matter is spiritual and physical. As evidence of this, we simply need to look to New Jerusalem. 1500 miles high and wide and long, and it comes down to earth! It doesn't smash into it!!!!! Floats like a butterfly, and lands in a world where bees sting no more!
Earth, as the center of the universe, with no gravity as we know it! Yet, people still walk those streets of gold! We can go flying off in space if we want, but it is ordered better than gravity. Now, let's apply that to the earth in the past, before the split! We, in our physical fallen state walked like normal, no problem. But not with gravity as we now have in a physical only world!!!!!!! Wow. This gets better all the time'
Now, let's knock off the old problem of how did they build the pyramids right away! If they were built in the still merged world in the century after the flood, (or some before as well) hey, no gravity as we now have!!! How about the canopy or rings?? Piece of cake!
And, for the piece de resistance, the continental sliding--No wonder it was easy!!!!!
What we are seeing with the Harry Potter movies and books is a seduction of young people into the world of magic and evil by dark seducing spirits. What do seducing spirits do? They seduce--and they are very good at it. It's the same with the Harry Potter magic as it is with pornography and drugs and Halloween, the so-called "Innocent" demon celebration. What seducing spirits do is start with pretend innocence--"oh, it's just a little harmless magic;" or "it's just soft-porn;" or "it's just a little weed;" or "Halloween is just an innocent holiday." Once they get people on the hook, then they draw them deeper and deeper into the seduction of spiritual darkness. From what I've heard, the latest Harry Potter movie was the darkest one yet. For Christians, participating in these things is like throwing "just a little incense" on the altars of these idols...It may seem innocent, but innocent-looking demons are still deadly demons
Heaven is a planet, approximately 4 1/2 light years from the Earth. Hell is 30 miles below the surface of the Earth, under England, the channel and France.
God started out as a spirit floating in the black emptiness of space. It must have been very lonely. I asked him once that if his spiritual being could be seen, how big it would be. He told me that if I could see his spiritual being, it would be about the size of the sun.
darwin was delusional and the ideas he proposed then would be laughable in todays world. if someone came up with an idea like "llife came from aliens" they would be considered insane. but not darwin. satans role in this world is much more powerful than any of you could believe. the denial of satan is much worse than accepting the fact that youre resisting god himself
["...yet you have the gall to say that scientists, who are experts in their fields, who spend their entire lives working/researching/learning about these things, have managed to not notice the supposed errors that you, an ignorant layman have discovered. unbelievable. you represent creationists well."]
you do the same thing to men like kent hovind and ken ham, who are experts in their fields, who spend their entire lives working/researching/learning about the bible and the inspired word of god. yet you resist them and accept the scientists guistimates on how the world works????
gravity in of itself is a joke. the way it reads you would think that objects of more mass have more gravitational pull than those of less mass, but if that is the case then why do we see the moon obiting the earth and not the sun???? or why does jupiters 'gravity' have more effect on meteors than the suns 'gravity'? scientists must be blind to these occurances...howsad...
[On the Founding Fathers who were largely deists and agnostics]
Now, I could care less what the founders of this country were tripping on at the time. It's meaningless from my perspective. As Christians we should live our call and shape society and governemental authority to the Christian ideal regardless of intentions of the founders of a state.
The first step is to convince legislators that "hate crimes" legislation is needed to deter "gay bashing" as if were a special type of assault. Thereby bestowing special status to homosexuals.
The next step is to then claim that for Christians to speak against homosexual behavior is "hate speech" and that that is a crime under "hate crimes" legislation. So, that then pastors, priests and other Chrisitans can be prosecuted under the "hate crimes" laws in order to silence them.
We know what the ultimate goal of the homosexual agenda is
["How is the minority being treated hostily a good thing?" 'I often ask that when I hear of atheists being treated with hostility by Christians.']
It should stay this way...
A one world religion and one world secular political system dosn't sound fun to me....
But secularism is of the devil
Also, I believe that there will soon be a visit to Heaven by over twenty people, and cameras will be allowed. The people will be taken to heaven for a visit and returned to the Earth the next day. I know that photos can be doctored and edited, but these will be validated by experts.
God refers to himself as a potter. Job reveals that God rather painstakingly formed the earth. If you've watched a potter at work you have a good idea how God formed the earth (the only object we can study up close). The angels watched and rejoiced when the foundations were laid. This too, indicates a careful, methodical, process.
The finished product would have revealed this as well. You have to visualize the perfection that was the earth before the rebellion. It's orbit would have been perfectly circular, with no tilt in axis. No harsh winter, a tropical climate with abundant plant life. No destructive weather patterns. This is also the restored condition God has promised.
[To a Jewish poster]
sigh... This messiah that you will be following is not actually the messiah , he will be the antichrist.....
The messiah already came and died for your sins 2000 years ago... He did fullfill jewish prophecy , and he will set peace on the world in his second comming...
Unless my life is in vain , Jesus is Lord.....
atheism itself is a joke, i mean who honestly has the LACK of a belief of god? thats like saying "i lack the belief of airplanes". the signs of airplanes and god are all around us, and for anyone to deny it is kind of disturbing to my eyes

[Were any or all of those stories of babies being born for the reason of being sacrificed to satan true? The McMartin case? I have read there is no evidence of any kidn that any satanic deaths ever occured.]
Very much so today! I worked with a SRA[Satanic Ritual Abuse] girl that was a breeder and they would induce the birth of the baby to sacrifice. They even force her to kill other babies as well.
One of her pregnancies went full term and they sold her baby through the black market down in New Orleans.
I've worked with several SRA people that have stories like this. Pretty sad!
[On using sex education proactively to reduce the number of unwanted pregnancies, thereby reducing the need for abortions]
I am all for anything that does not contradict the teachings of God and Church. As long as sex ed is approved by parents and does not include the teaching or acceptance of sex outside of marriage or the use of artificial contraception or abortion then I am okay with it.
['Hmmm if I remember correctly Hitler was a "right winger" also!!']
You don't remember right. Hitler was a SOCIALIST. Nazi is short for NATIONAL SOCIALIST - a Statist. You know - one of those who think that we should look to the state to answer every problem in society. Right-wingers don't thing government is the answer to ANY problem. In actuality - we think that the government is the CAUSE of most problems.
I speak in tongues -- which is proof in the *senses* realm, of the internal reality of the Spirit.
Oh! The fact that I excrete through my ass is good evidence for the concept of a design in my body.
[Responding to the accusation of flat out denying evidence]
HA! I've been waiting for a chance to post this one;
"So shall it be at the end of the world, the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just, and shall cast them into the fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth"-Matthew 13:49-50.
Come and get it aliens! All the evil you can eat or feed your chupacabras! Angels kill the evilest third of the population, who aren't arrested instead in Rev 9. ufoevidence.org
Speciation is merely hybriding. We have done it for thousands of years in breeding livestock and pets. Cross pollination...so what's the big deal?
50 years ago most scientists supported evolution but with new discoveries but the tide appears to be turning. In the last 10 years there have been many scientists criticizing evolution. I recently read a good book by a professor of Biochemistry called “Darwin’s Black Box” which attempts to disprove evolution.
Even one of the leading atheists in the UK now believes in a creator. If Christians did not accept evolution 50 years ago when science was against them, why would they ever accept it now, with new discoveries in physics, biochemistry, and genetics, giving more support to a creator every day.
it seems to me that, deep down inside his heart, the evolutionist is fully aware of his foolishness and is afraid of God, the Bible and the Christian. The abject fear they must be contending with never fails to reveal their unbidden [...]
They crudely mock others, they put words in people's mouths and then ctriticize what they say, and seldom fail to be accusatory (as is their master).[...]
Their intellect is voided by the foolishness of their beliefs and so they remain blind to the truth. They act like their spoiling for a fight but when challenged they immediately resort to others for "their" defense of the HoE.
Our bodies have been in constant need of water sinse the apes and before. Why haven't we learned how to drink from the rain?
Why did we evolve to have to wear shoes? I would think we would have tough feet.
[Note: he's defending the faith, not criticizing it]
If you would wish to teach the doctrine that God's wrath is transfiguring for the non-believing sinner who has the good fortune to find himself the object of it, you should recognize that Biblical Christians will follow the lead of St. Paul and curse you, Martin Luther and ignore you, or John Calvin and kill you.
The Bible has forbidden God from changing his designs, it has forbidden God from telling something different, and it has forbidded you from thinking differently. Even if God would wish to tell humans something new, something different, Christians have inocculated themselves against hearing any new voice.
Is it any wonder the Bible calls for the man to be the head of the woman within the Christian Family Concept? Women can easily be deceived. Only through the Christian Religion and the Christian Family Concept does any woman and her children have any protection.
I said born again Bible savvy Christians, not Catholics. (although they preserved a tremendous amount of knowledge) I guess you don't get why Jefferson said that Christianity, "divested of the rags of the clergy, is the friendliest to liberty, science and the freest expansion of the human mind." Unlike you he could tell the difference between the baby and the dirty bathwater. You choose not to apparently. That's why you keep talking about what the Catholics, totally ignorant of the NT, did or didn't do.
Well, first of all, its the Falconist Party and second, yes, it is part of our platform.
So we turn the Arab nations against us. Guess what, most of them are run by dictatorships and our hit list includes all tyrannical regimes on the planet.
We will remove the despots of Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia, the Gulf States, Egypt, Libya, Sudan, Pakistan, North Korea, Cuba, Venezuela, some of the former republics of the USSR, Burma, and China.
We will move into countries that are descending into anarchy such as Haiti and Somalia.
And as we liberate these nations one by one, we will incorporate them into our union and rebuild them into first world societies. Building a more perfect union. Ultimately, the entire world can be united under the stars and stripes and the blessings of freddom, prosperity, democracy, and justice for all people that come with it.
God is Love
Without God , there is only hate. I can't really explain it now.. But I know it to be true..
If there was no God , the human race would have died out long before, because there is no love without God. God and Love are one. Without God , there would be no law , only anarchy.
Without God , only the fittests survive, and the fittests control the newbies....
[Commenting on "The Silent Scream" anti-abortion documentary]
Towards the end of the documentary the narrator tells how these abortion clinics started multiplying "like fast food chains" around the country after the 1973 Supreme Court decision. That organized crime was heavily involved in these clinics. Strange how they can smell where the big $$$ is.
