    Are The Trials Of Job Ahead Of Us?

    Here we go again. :sleep:

    Child dies while parents forgo doctor, rely on prayer.

    Maybe people should understand that a prayer is a request, not a command given to God so that He'll do what we tell Him to do when we want it.

    Ever Seriosuly Considered...?

    I have doubts. If I wasn't Christian, I'd be atheist or make-up-my-own religion. Well, perhaps not atheist, but I wouldn't think about it anymore.

    God Is An Imaginary Friend For Grown-Ups

    No problem. I like debates where there's no name calling or condescending inferences. I put a lot of belief in the archaelogical remains of the NT, and other off-shoot 'evidences' from that, eg. the disciples' amazing transformation of attitude towards Christ after His resurrection. Not to...

    God Is An Imaginary Friend For Grown-Ups

    I completely agree. I have reasons for my belief; they are not 'just because' or because I was raised with them (I grew up in an atheist home, btw.) They just aren't empirically unrefutable scientific evidences.

    Zion

    Can I ask why LDS believe the New Jerusalem will be built on the American continent?

    God Is An Imaginary Friend For Grown-Ups

    I find it hard for people to call themselves 'open minded' who have no desire to actually be open minded in the case of faith. You may be open minded to the scientific arguments brought to you by people of faith, but not open minded to the faith itself. It's fine if you don't agree, I just...

    What to do in Heaven?

    I think it's a bit concerning that you based your idea of Heaven off a movie.

    Oldest NT Papyri

    Show us more old-people-writing pictures! I like looking at them.

    Do differences in practices of faith mean we follow the same Jesus Christ?

    I don't know why you can't understand this. The Gospel was originally spread by word of mouth and actions. A standardised NT was not instantly available at the resurrection of Christ. Can you understand, then, if you take these things to be true, that it is important (perhaps even...

    Everybody: What stance should non-believers take towards religion?

    Not every atheist does this, but I'd like to see a stance that doesn't ridicule or patronise those who have beliefs. I'd also like to see the reverse as well.

    What do you feel is wrong with atheism?

    Dude ... that was so dumb. :slap:

    Christians:Is The Trinity Truly Biblical(A Separate Thread)

    I don't mind if you think sojourner's wrong, but can you stop acting as if you're speaking down to him?

    Christians: Where do you draw the line?

    That's my idea of baptism too. I think that should be practised, but only as long as it's practical (ie. there's a stream nearby, or there isn't a shortage of water). If you can immerse, I think you should do it that way.

    That is a horrendously inaccurate statement.
