    Given what we know of genetics, how was Jesus human?

    See...Did Jesus have Mary's DNA? by Craig L. Bluemel From the above link: God chose to implant in Mary’s virgin ovum a Y chromosome, which He created at conception all by Himself. In so doing God the Father bypassed whatever defective genetic weakness would have been passed on through...

    Is anyone really, truly "evil"?

    I've tried to conceptualize the rationale of a truly evil person and I can't do it. I cannot believe that any one individual by him or herself can be considered evil. Perhaps they are mentally deranged, or scarred by a horrific childhood, or privy to excessive trauma. But I do not believe that...

    Punishment

    Like most of my posts, this is coming from the Judeo-Christian standpoint. Can someone explain to me why or how a finite transgression (not accepting Jesus/not believing in God/doing bad things) could possibly justify an infinite or extended punishment (an eternal or really long lasting...

    Why aren't we friends with God anymore?

    That is, without a doubt, one of the most spectacular theories I've seen on this site. Tell me, did you come up with that yourself or are you pulling concepts from a theologian? Tell you the truth I'm convinced human beings are natural nomads, forced by society into a sedentary, civilized...

    God's Priorities (Miracles)

    I define "miracle" as divine intervention. People say it exists. Then why so sparingly?

    God's Priorities (Miracles)

    Why is it a miracle if a boy with cancer goes into remission spontaneously and survives, but if 10,000 people starve to death, or someone gets shot by a mugger, or someone dies horrifically in a car crash, it's attributed to bad luck or God's plan or something? How can miracles exist in a world...

    Why aren't we friends with God anymore?

    Yes, but here is where I have issues. Back then, the calamities could CLEARLY be attributed to YHWH. Who else can turn human beings into pillars of salt or overturn cities with angel wings? It's clearly supernatural. As far as Gentile prophets, why would he send them if Gentiles aren't bound by...

    Why aren't we friends with God anymore?

    I'm speaking from the Judeo-Christian standpoint right now. Why doesn't God talk to us anymore? According to Jewish and Christian history, He was very communicative back in the day, what with sending down prophets and messengers and raining down fire and turning people into pillars of salt...

    Why are the Abrahamic faiths so obsessed with sex?

    I only use the term because these faiths are the only ones I have relatively strong knowledge of. I don't know much about Hinduism or Buddhism, and thus I don't want to make any statements about them I can't substantiate.

    Why does there always have to be an "agenda"?

    It seems whenever a member of a self-proclaimed "oppressed" viewpoint, be it any cause (Christian, Muslim, Atheist, Gay, Straight, Black, White, Latino, Democrat, Republican, Male, Female, etc), is backed against the wall, there is the issue of an "agenda" being tossed around with any...

    Why are the Abrahamic faiths so obsessed with sex?

    Sex, or lack thereof without proper rules, seems to be a common factor in the prohibitions and rules placed on Jews, Muslims, and Christians. What with the whole birth control issue here in the states, or adultery and marriage laws here and abroad, what is the deal with sex, and why is it such a...

    Failure of science to find God; itself a proof that one true God does exist

    OK for real there is no way this guy is being serious right now. No way. Right, guy? Right?
