Fundamentalist Christianity must be used to combat Fundamentalist Islam. Evil doesn't destroy itself. The murder would be justified in Gods eyes because it is for a greater more peaceful cause.

[On homosexual men]

Geez, who likes sodomy anyway?

[On why a kind God would use the threat of Hell as an... incentive at all]

Like I said before if there was something other than torment then who'd worship Him.

Bisexual's are the saddest of all. At least Choose one. Lets not forget what happened to SWEDEN for being neutral.

GOD DOES NOT NEED TO PROVE HIMSELF TO ANYONE. ESPECIALLY YOU. ALSO, ITS CALLED BLIND FAITH! HAVING FAITH IN SOMETHING THAT YOU CANNOT SEE.

God clearly instructs us to worship Himself... the Holy Trinity. If you do not then you worship another God and this is called Idolatory which condemns you to Hell. Thus explains the reason why Jews and Muslims go to Hell.

[On why the dinosaurs went extinct]

The other theory is that before Adam and Eve were the dinosaurs. God created them and didn't like them so He flooded the earth and started again.

[on Christian militants and going to war for God]

I'd much rather chill and scripture about it. But if GOD said " Take him/her camping " That's it. Sorry! Nothing personal!

And just think of all the people killed and deceived at Satan’s hands. The top 5 killers of all time were either Satanist or Atheists. Does Hitler or Stalin ring a bell? Why don't you consider that? You are a fool Trickster you have believed the great deceiver!

[Replying to questions of how it can possibly be fair to condemn people based on religion]

Jews, still waiting for the Messiah. They saw Jesus, knew He was the Messiah but chose not to believe Him. The reason the Jews didn't believe in Him was because He didn't typify what God's son would look like. Jesus was plain looking and rejected even among His desciples. The Jews hated Christ.

Islam is really Satans religion. The Muslims accept Christ as a prophet from God but believe Muhammed to be the son of God. The Muslims also believe the OT and NT to be valid forms of doctrine. Now why would God want 'terrorism' to be the main focus of religion. Simply read the Quran, and you'll see what I'm talking about.

Christianity is the one TRUE religion. Jesus Christ is the Son of God. We are taught everything Good in this world. God is from the light, there is no darkness in him and as soon as your realise this then you'll see why other religions are wrong. Muslims, Jews, Atheists etc may never change their word because Satan is deceiving them into believing they are right... I can only pray for them.

[Replying again to allegations of hypocrisy relating to Islam and Christian extremists]

How sad. I can tell you right now that as much hatred you have for us then you can double the hatred Muslims feel for you. Feel free to defend the Muslims... the ones that teach death to all people who aren't in the Muslim faith. No the Muslims don't give a flying f**k about YOU or America. How can you be so naive... or are you just a sheep... following the crowd? No, the only people who care about you greatly are the Christians. Do you not understand that? Open your friggin eyes and take a good hard look around.

[On the rather unwholesome idea that Jewish people killed in the Holocaust are now in hell for eternity because they didn't accept Jesus]

If the gassed jews are in hell then they're in hell. It doesn't change the way I feel about God. I think that most probably are (except the children). God plainly states He sends no one to hell, but can only save people from hell. He gave people free will to choose heaven or hell... it's actually a choice. I infact believe that since God desires us to be like Him then eventually everyone will end up in Heaven since I don't believe in eternal punishment as justfication. This may go against my Christian beliefs but it's how I truly feel and if I'm wrong... oh well.

['Is there a point where we should reject a powerful tyrant's authority even at great risk of personal injury?']

Yeah if you want to go to hell. I don't.

All that aside, do you live in a freakin' cave? Do you have any gay friends? Good grief, if you want to talk about homosexuality and consequences, as my dead grandfather. Yep, gay, and dead at 56. AIDS. Most of my gay friends are on the same route. Every time one of my friends comes out of the closet I cry. Not because of sin, but because I know how they are going to die. Its a dangerous road they are on. Homosexuality is rarely about two commited life partners. It is usually about getting laid a lot from a lot of different people.

You do realise that the concept of Heaven originated in the Old Testament... do you? You do realise that there is no evidence out there to suggest there is a heaven outside of the Bible?

[Replying to allegations that Christian extremists can be just as bad as Islamic ones]

Christianity is NO WAY supports the KKK. The KKK may be made up of Christians (I don't know) but they are rascist and not Godly. They are not doing the will of God and what has been taught to them. Abortion clinics are usually the result of hippie do-gooders. Any Christian associated with abortion clinic bombings is doing much evil in the eyes of God. Of course there are going to be so called Christian whackos out there who are going to shame the Christian faith by doing evil deeds, but they are simply rebelling against God... or taking matter into there own hands. I ask you to not base your perception of the Christian religion based on the immoralities of idiots. I ask you to read the Bible, a law based on love, kindness and most importantly, truth. There you'll seek the true nature of God.

[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?

And dictionary's are not as reliable as the Bible. uh Duh.

[After being asked if Hell makes any sense at all]

Absolutely not. The only reason I believe in hell is cause it's in the Bible and since I believe the Bible to be Gods word then I believe there's a hell. If it wasn't in the Bible then I would thinks it's a fantasy and untrue.

You have to believe with your mind before you can think with your heart, and your not going to believe in your mind if you don't wish to.

God isn't forcing His love upon us. If He did then we would have no choice but to love Him. He'd be taking away our free will. So He's giving us a choice. Love Him and your reward is Heaven. Reject Him and condemn yourself to Hell. They are the two options God has presented us with and the ONLY two options. Remember God doesn't send us to hell, we condemn ourselves to hell. You give your wife a choice, "stay with me and we'll spend the rest of our lives together or go your away and never see me again". Are we as Christians afraid of Hell? Very much so, but it's necessary for us to keep our love in the Lord or risk losing faith.

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.

Here are my theory's on Homosexuality.

Its just a Fetish. It's a kinky sexual perversion that people convince themselves to be born with.

[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!

Yet i maintain that God is the origin of that evolution process, not Darwin.

Id rather believe in the bible.....then anything else..why? I don't need any reason but faith.

Which Quran were you reading? Of course people will tell you Islam is of love and peace but don't be fooled. Believe me when I say many Muslima in America wants glory to be Allah and death to the congress. For Islam is held higher than any national patriotism. Of course there are good Muslims out there... they just understand the difference between 'right' and 'wrong'. I ask you to actually read the doctrines before making generalisations about a particular faith.

[Commenting on another theist's slightly different belief in God, one which doesn't require accepting and loving Jesus to be saved]

May I ask you how you can love something that you've never even met, felt or heard? I bet you've never even seen god. How can you love something you don't even know?

The book of mormon contradicts the bible at every turn, and even contradicts itself, it's total bull.

[Presumptously commenting on bisexual lifestyle]

i'm sure you'll think this ignorant, but if you could swing either way, why not dump the homosexual relationship and persue the heterosexual relationship that you wish you could have? as far as attractions, we all got them and if you want to fulfill your obligation to monogamy, you just don't act on them.

There is no such thing as Christian Homophobia. Yes homosexual lifestyles can tear a family apart, especially if some members disagree with it and don't voice there opinions in Godly love. It is more likely in Christian house holds as we as Christians are not to support sin. Yes some people on this forum have shown hate for homosexuals; it doesn't mean it's a uniform Christian belief. I've seen more non-Christian "Homophobics" than Christian.

[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.

[Told to another theist who was rationally questioning the doctrine of Hell as illogical and unfair]

I seriously recommend you don't apply science to death. It will lead you to convince yourself of arguements that simply deceive you. Eternal life comes through faith, nothing more... nothing less.
