    Pope endorses evolution

    To be honest, I didn't read all the info; "The organism that Arnold and Parker study is a single-celled, microscopic animal belonging to the Foraminiferida". Do you have any evidence beyond the changes in the minute compartments of a microscopic single cell? Sorry, but for me to accept this...

    Pope endorses evolution

    Thanks for the info, but I saw no evidence of one species evolving into another. Dawin's "finch beaks" and such are merely observations of genetic variations within the same species. While I accept changes via mutations and environmental adaptation, I have yet to see evidence of a complete DNA...

    Unhappy Christian / Oxymoron??

    I am personally happy, but seldom content. I am content in what I believe, but not usually satisfied in where I'm at in life. I'm not sure its a good thing to be content, because it might mean that you want for nothing better and an attitude like that might bring all progress & growth in life to...

    Pope endorses evolution

    What's really amazing is that despite having evolved from pond scum, we can all formulate a paragraph :) I'm not convinced that we descended from Lucy. Below is a pic of the Australopithecus afarensis skull, and to me it doesn't look human or even something that's in transition to being human...

    Pope endorses evolution

    Show me one transitional fossel where an animal transitions from one species to another. As far as I'm concerned, most of the hominid skulls look like extinct apes. I know that many claim that the 3.5-million-year-old Australopithecus afarensis, better known as Lucy is one of man's earliest...

    Pope endorses evolution

    Being a Fundamentalist, I've never bought into the "molecules to man" theory. Many species have adapted or mutated, but none have evolved. Bottom line is that the link from ape to man is missing in the fossil record. I still don't believe that the building blocks of life spontaneously arose in a...

    Abraham and his descendants

    Islam is based on a false sense of heritage and a false prophet. Its an angry and misguided religion. I disagree with the Islamic interpretation, not only the Isaac-Ishmael factor which sets Islam against Judaism, but the Jacob/ Esau factor which put the promise land in dispute. God gave the...

    Love your own enemies

    God corrects those He loves, so perhaps the command to love our enemies means that we should correct them? And just a thought; If a child of God prays for their enemies, the result of that prayer may not be such a pleasing thing for their enemies? "Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if...

    Is it wrong to want to die?

    People do and will suck the life out of you if you allow it. There comes a point, and it sounds like your past it, when you need to tell them to handle things themselves. We live in a world where there are a half dozen takers for every giver. I'd just suggest trying to leave other peoples...

    Do you believe the Lord/God would murder children..,. Yes/No-?

    I don't know if I'd call it murder, but yes, God killed children. Lest we forget what Joshua was commanded to do at Jericho and other Canaanite Cites. Not to mention Sodom and Gomorrah, Noah's flood, and even King David & Bathsheba's first son.

    Super silly questions

    "LORD" (all capital letters) is usually the English translation of the Hebrew YHVH. I believe "Lord" is referencing Yeshua. Imo, no restrooms in heaven. Spiritual beings do not perish, thus they can't excrete perishable waste. There is food in heaven, but no perishable flesh and blood to...

    Help to make unbelievers believe in the supernatural

    I'd agree, if a person can't or won't believe the miracles described in the bible, its highly unlikely that they would believe in supernatural events described in other books. They already don't believe, so reading about various accounts from different sources wouldn't be considered proof to...

    Are You Happy?

    I am personally happy, but seldom content. I am content in what I believe, but not usually satisfied in where I'm at in life. I'm not sure its a good thing to be content, because it might mean that you want for nothing better and an attitude like that might bring all progress & growth in life to...

    I am stumped. Cannot answer friend's questions

    This person is telling you what God thinks, but his logic is not biblical. We are each individual souls and we each make our own spiritual choices. I personally don't believe God knows every choice we'll make. If that were so, then this whole experiment would be an exercise in futility. He also...

    Scariverse

    I'll agree with Matthew 7:23; "I never knew you: depart from me". I can't imagine more devastating words that anyone could hear.

    Blood does not save, love does.

    "All things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission" (Hebrews 9:22) Since without the shedding of blood, there is no remission for sin, I'd disagree with the OP,.. Blood in fact, does save... If Christ failed to atone for our sins, we would all die in sin...

    We need to do something!

    The same thing we did to Hitler when Jews were being massacred. "When good men do nothing, evil will flourish." - Winston Churchill

    Suicide is a choice! Do you agree?

    I agree Choir Loft... "While if the man had turned to Christ he may have found the relief he needed." If all a person has to live for is this world, I'd get pretty depressed too.

    Split from: "What Did Jesus Actually Accomplish On The Cross?

    "As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one" (Romans 3:10), Paul quoted; "There is none that doeth good, no, not one" (Psalms 14:3). Righteousness proceeds from God, because He alone is righteous. When we receive His righteousness, we are righteous. "Blessed are those who hunger and...

    Let's Start A Movement

    Screw that..........just kidding.. Doesn't sound like much fun, but I suppose Christians should hold to a proper protocol. I tend to get along until a Christian denies the bible, even Jesus didn't afford the Pharisees much dignity when they did that. But there will always be different...
