    Why So Much Trinity Bashing?

    Which temple was Jesus referring to when He said "Destroy this temple and in 3 days........." They were in the stone temple and that was not rebuilt in 3 days, so that was not a sign that Jesus gave. The temple that the disciples would become and in which God would dwell by His Spirit, was not...

    Why So Much Trinity Bashing?

    So the Jews asked Jesus what sign would he show them for doing these things. You bring up an interesting question, so I looked at the previous verses to see more of the context. It says: "The Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 14In the temple he found those who...

    For trinity believers: Does your world come unravelled if Jesus is not God,but ONLY Gods Son?

    I hope so. The Bible says that the body that is raised will be 'different' than the body we have now. 1 Corinthians 15:44 They are buried as natural human bodies, but they will be raised as spiritual bodies. For just as there are natural bodies, there are also spiritual bodies. But the Bible...

    Why do some Atheists say Christianity is harmful?

    In other words, Christians aren't any more moral than anyone else. They can be decent, morally upright people if they choose to be, or they can lie, steal, cheat, cuss, get drunk, take drugs, commit adultery, divorce, remarry, lust, and be promiscuous before marriage, just like non-Christians...

    Why do some Atheists say Christianity is harmful?

    I won’t argue with your own experience or perspective. But I personally know real Christians who love Jesus and put Him first, while caring for and loving others, believers and non-believers. On the other hand, I have also personally known those who claim to be Christians, they can quote the...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    It is better worded that ancient tribal religions like Judaism, Christianity and Islam are some times peaceful and sometimes are put a premium on violence and the threat of violence.. Heathen Atheism? This is self defined negative aggressive biased accusation without meaning if people do not...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    Sure.... the state of israel is using violence as a tool. What's to reject? The human conscious is only one aspect of the living spirit. OK..... man created all religions, just like all words. Now that is a complete misleading belief, all by itself. To a monk, religion could be the 'most...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    It depends on what Religion you practice. Some Religions are Non-Violent and others put a Premium on Violence. The World is Ruled by Violence or the Threat of Violence. Appearances are often deceiving. Heathen Atheism is Really the Rejection of Spirituality. Heathen Atheism is Natural Religion...

    Why is pleasure bad according to any religion you belong to?

    That is not science, it is some psychological mumbo jumbo. It certainly could never be tested and verified so it is not science. Since God created humans, God knows more than science about what humans need According to religion earthly pleasures are not to be sought after. John 3:6 That which...

    Who Or What Is Israel?

    1 John 2:16 16 For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. Racism is an Integral part of the World. In the World its all about Evil Power. This is Ordained by Elohim/God.

    the soul is not dependent on brain activity

    I don't only have hope. I definitely believe that consciousness survives death, since I believe that the soul is responsible for consciousness, and the soul survives death. All those things you noted are evidence, but psychic mediums who have communicated with spirits on the other side is also...

    How can you be a True Christian™ if you don't take the Eden story literally?

    And what happened immediately afterwards, according to the account in Matthew 21? In verse 14… “Also, blind and lame people came to him in the temple, and he cured them.” If he had been in a “fit of rage,” as you said, do you think people would have approached him? In fact, one account says...

    How can you be a True Christian™ if you don't take the Eden story literally?

    According to John 2:16, it is written that Jesus said, "Get these out of here! Stop turning my Father’s house into a market!" Whenever someone tells others to "Get out of here!" it is not in a calm and polite tone of voice. It is an expression of anger and frustration. You will note that it...

    Love, sex, and spirituality

    What I wonder is why on earth can't some people just "get it on," enjoy themselves, pleasure their partners -- and forget about "spirituality" for a second. I'll bet you don't worry constantly about spirituality when you're taking a dump (just another natural function of life).

    Love, sex, and spirituality

    So what? Love without physical expressions may as well not exist. Such love is useless, meaning and utterly banal. And no, I don't just mean sex. Remove all words and deeds and love is sterile. Btw, You think that sex without procreation is only a "physical act that is engaged in to gratify...

    Love, sex, and spirituality

    Denying self doesn’t mean sex, it has to do with conflicted loyalty. Sex is God given and therefore good but not to be abused. We are sexual creatures for pleasure and procreation.

    Love, sex, and spirituality

    Are you implying that the men who did not check the box 'Extremely Important' were lying? There were other choices: It's important, Somewhat important, and Not important. About half the men I viewed said It's important, although very few said Somewhat important and I did not see any who said...

    Love, sex, and spirituality

    If you value honesty then give high marks to the men who say that sex is “extremely important”. Humans are designed to procreate, it guarantees the perpetuation of the human race. Religion made sex and all sorts of other fun things “taboos”. From my Bible: 155:6.11 (1732.4) Never forget...

    Heaven

    Jesus was referring to spiritual life, not physical life. The one who has faith in Jesus, even though he dies physically, will have eternal life (spiritual life). John 3:5-7 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into...
