    What happened to Christianity?

    There are many man made beliefs that are held by most Christian denominations. The two that are most harmful sound so pious: The Bible is the word of God ...and without error There's lots of great in the scriptures, but Christianity is a revealed religion. The scriptures even tell us that...

    After so much struggle, I finally decided.

    I can relate.

    When you #resist - keep these in mind

    I never said that. Possibly why I didn't say that. You mean Komrade Trumpsky? Why change the subject? Yet you defend Komrade Trumpsky. The irony is palpable.

    When you #resist - keep these in mind

    So you're OK suspending their 1st amendment rights because someone gets offended? I'm certain that the Brits felt the Boston Tea Party was a violent protest. Imagine that. If you don't like the resistance, then please don't join: we don't need you anyway! The more your rail against us and call...

    When you #resist - keep these in mind

    There's been violence on both sides of the fence. Your 'so called' president certainly hasn't united this country, has he. If I were you, I would follow the first rule of Scuba while you wait for that to happen: Don't hold your breath. I like most of the tenets of the OP... but I refuse to...

    Who Agrees with Trump's Tweets on his Immigration EO and the Court Orders Thereto?

    What do you expect from a "so called" president? I mean really!

    Jesus and Proselytizing

    Way too legalistic for me. Mark 2:27 The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. NIV and Colossians 2:16 Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. 17 These are a shadow of the...

    Jesus and Proselytizing

    We disagree on this.

    Jesus and Proselytizing

    I disagree with this as well. Jesus was not a legalist and took legalists to task all the time. His was the legacy of love.

    Jesus and Proselytizing

    I would disagree with this as it's a truly legalistic way to look at this. The only thing required of us is to love each other. So many, scriptures on this, but Ephesians 5 puts it best: "The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love". (By memory, so don't hold it against me...

    Jesus and Proselytizing

    Jesus loved people into the Kingdom. Today's proselytizing is mostly yelling, screaming and telling people that they are going to hell. Jesus certainly didn't like that aggressiveness among the Pharisees and Sadducees. Matthew 23:15 “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you...

    The RF Meme Thread...

    All memes are welcome, but this is a fact free zone: don't comment on the memes!!! Let us know if you created the meme with a "mine". You might not have created the pic or the sentiment, but if you put the two together, then it's YOUR meme. These first four will all be "mine". :D :D :D

    Do the Scientific Methods in General Comprise Our Most Reliable Methods of Inquiry?

    Depends on the inquiry. It sucks when it comes to history. We can certainly divine many of the mechanisms for evolution, but we still don't know which came first: the chicken or the egg. In addition, the scientific process is only applicable to the natural world and not the supernatural. It's...
