This may not be the norm everywhere. Heck, it may only be common here in my tiny town but the young people (say 12 to 17 years old) that are involved in Church, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts (Note, BOTH are based on God). interesting that they are based on religion where you are, and maybe most places fo...

one other thing that's always troubled me. where did most people get their current belief in god or religion. from your parents when you were a child most likely. arent these the same people that convinced you that there was an easter bunny, tooth fairy and santa clause?? :o i'd be a bit skeptical ...

i could not agree more. i actually had a very close friend tell me that i couldnt be an atheist because she knows me and i'm a good person and that i'm just confused. she was so upset by me explaining my lack of faith that she started crying. Wow. :o I'm not an atheist, but I absolutely agree with ...

If there was an "invisible man behind me" would he not have mass and still take space? Would he not leave behind footprints? i dont know, i've never seen an invisible man. just as nobody has ever seen a god but they will swear on their lives that one exists. and yes sam, we can always hav...

Gosh, all I did was state MY opinion. That IS what Brad wanted. No one has to agree with me. Frankly, I feel happy with who I am, what I believe and how I live and raise my kids. We pray before meals, we pray before we sleep and we pray for others. I am not asking you to agree. No one ever said I w...

If I may interject here... I'm all for natural transgressions in topics. However, this thread is about the Bible, and people's thoughts pertaining to it. Defining faith, and proving and disproving the existance of a god or gods is taking things a bit astray, I'd say. :D defining what the bible is t...

Soraya, Okies well enough, with all you posted earlier about not being able to prove a negative. Why is up to every Christian to prove their belief, that is a God and see his works everywher....from the miracle of conception becoming a human being, from a caterpillar becoming a butterfly to a gorge...

I guess the animosity you are seeing comes from the very common theist behavior of telling the atheist that they don’t really know…they really have ‘faith’ they just don’t realize it yet….or that it’s just ‘misplaced’. It’s very distasteful for one adult to tell another that they don’t know what th...

the Great Pumpkin doesn't exist???

This is where is problem with fundamentalism occurs, the proof-texting of one or two verses out of context to order to bolster one's veiw on a particular social issue. that seems to be what every person i ever see quoting the bible is doing though. interpretting it to fit his/her own needs. sometim...

I also believe the Christian foundation only strengthened the moral ground in the first place. I'D HAVE TO DISAGREE WITH THAT ALSO. ARE WE TALKING ABOUT THE SAME PEOPLE THAT HAVE TORTURED AND KILLED THOUSANDS OVER THE YEARS IN THE NAME OF CHRISTIANITY? I'M NOT SAYING I ALWAYS EQUATE IT WITH BAD THI...

My Momma raised me "right"...(Right for me anyhow). I'm Presbyterian. We go to church. We host the Easter egg hunt. We help our youth. We love and teach our Sunday School classes. I raise my children with the same "rules" as I was raised. Do unto others, that's it. The Ten Comma...

There's a semi religious discussion going on right now and it only took 3 posts before the athiest told the christian to take their beliefs and not discuss them in public. that's odd, it is almost always the christian that will tell an atheist they are wrong and shouldnt be allowed to discuss relig...

I agree with many here who say that bringing up the subject of how one believes or doesn't believe is a very personal matter and really shouldn't be discussed. What good really comes out of this? This is my opinion, after all I'm entitled to my opinion. topics that shouldn't be discussed? :wink: th...

religious people scare me in general please excuse any misspells...... The Religious Extreamist is what scares me. Most Religons are of a peaceful nature. People who bomb abortion clinics in the name of Jesus or fly planes into buildings in the name of Mohammad are not true to their religious roots...

i'm curious how anyone knows what color skin jesus had Whether or not you believe he was the Messiah or a Prophet, the man Jesus was a historical person. He was Aramaic, and Aramaics have brown skin, as opposed to the pale skin of an Anglo-Saxon/Caucasian. There are historical descriptions of Jesus...
