    Trinitarians' interpretation of "us"

    I agree with the points Halcyon has made and I will go further, in saying... that when God says 'Let us make man in our image." he is taking into account all of the heavenly hosts. Angels, ArchAngels, and the original creator. God is the DNA of everything. There is also mention that God...

    Cursing: Is it okay to use other people's faiths?

    "I've never understood the point of replacing swear words with other words. The meaning...the emotion behind it is still the same. Everybody knows what you would've said anyway. If you find cursing to be inappropriate, shouldn't you find the intent inappropriate rather than the actual...

    Cursing: Is it okay to use other people's faiths?

    We need to clarify why it is wrong to curse or swear by any God and how those two actions are done and how holy people have historically dealt with using the name of God. I know there are many religions here, but I am going to discuss it from the point of view of my religion: Judeo-Christian...

    Hell

    Probably an in depth study of 'hell' in the bible will clear up your questions. Study particularly the actual word that is translated as Hell and notice that the same word is also translated as death. The Hebrew word is 'sheol' ( Old Testament), the New Testament words are 'gehenna' and...

    Biblical Plagues compared with STD's

    Okay, let me be careful here, because I don't want to unwittingly offend someone who is suffering from the disease. In answering your question, Robtex, I am sort of saying that God is promoting a monogamous relationship. There are two ways to think about disease. One, that diseases exist just...

    Capital Punishment

    I wish I could figure out how to give some frubals ( I'm new). I would give them to Jensa! That was a tasty point: "we don't rape the rapist, then why kill the murderer?". The thing that we all have to bear in mind about people is that they grow and have the opportunity to change their...

    Advice needed...or support, or something.

    Well, thanks a lot for the kindness. I haven't yet made an introductory post, no. I did start a thread on STD's compared to Biblical plagues on the debates forum. I'll try to get around to the other. Take care.

    Biblical Plagues compared with STD's

    Actually, now, with the advent of new drugs, it has the possiblity of killing. There are a lot of people who have the infection who are living fine ( excluding the side effects of the drugs). Whether or not having the virus is a certainty of death is yet undetermineable. There may very well be a...

    Christmas & Santa are agents of evil sent by Satan the Devil

    Okay, maybe I'll express my view on this subject. I accept that the Christmas invention is a mixture of Christianity and Paganism. My question is this: why can't we separate the secular observance portrayed in myths like Santa Claus, gift-giving, reindeer, etc. from the true religious aspects of...

    Thank you, Sunstone! I am a new member here. What exactly are frubals? It is essential that at some point in your life you self-actualize: you actually become yourself ! Exposing yourself to ridicule is difficult, but the liberation is wonderful. And as I said already, people will admire you...

    Biblical Plagues compared with STD's

    This is going to be posed as a topic for discussion and so in my introduction of the subject I am not going to include an exhaustive essay. The focus of the subject centers around a question that was asked of me by a person who is HIV positive. Just for your own data, he is heterosexual...

    Advice needed...or support, or something.

    I want to express a different side to this issue. Everyone seems to offer a supportive comment. I want to as well. But, I will tell you that it doesn't always go well when you tell your parents these things, so you should prepare yourself for rejection also. First I will tell you that I am gay...
