    For non-closed minded

    There is no one on the entire earth who has not sinned ie: told a lie, been cruel to someone else, etc. God created the world to be perfect. He created humans to be perfect. He also gave humans free will because he loves us so very much. He didn't want mindless robots. Then Adam and Eve sinned...

    Good and Evil: How do you know the difference?

    It is hard for me to answer because I can't avoid using my relationship with Christ as the reason for everything I believe. I believe that good and evil exist as objective realities because they were instituted and implanted in the hearts of humans by our Creator, God. Of course if you are not a...

    Good and Evil: How do you know the difference?

    I think what you are describing is evil. I don't understand your aversion to using that word when it is so clearly the wrong you speak of. You might have a nation where it is right to give up your child to the elements if it is a girl, almost everyone in that nation might view it as right...

    What is an angel to you?

    Angels are spiritual beings that were created before humans. I do not believe (nor do I believe the Bible says this) that they are humans who have died. They have many occupations including worshiping God and acting as messengers on his behalf.

    Good and Evil: How do you know the difference?

    What is wrong if there is no evil? Is it just something that we feel with our instincts? That means that the murderer who felt by his instincts, in that moment, he was right to kill another human is beyond reproof.

    Forgiveness of sins

    I think the "heavy weight of sins for which you cannot forgive yourself" is also one way that satan works to make us stumble. He wants us to feel guilty about what God has forgiven us for. He wants to drag us down with guilt. If you've repented genuinely, you are forgiven.

    Good and Evil: How do you know the difference?

    I believe that there is good and evil. I believe this because I am a Christian...(no further explanation needed I presume) Those who say there are no rights or wrong are taking the easy way out. What about murder, rape etc. ? Some will tell you it might be right for the person taking that...

    God Debate

    Here's one for you. We are all imperfect beings living in an imperfect universe. We therefore have imperfect views of life in general Hence we cannot understand anything that is perfect and all our arguments against his existence would be skewed by our imperfection.

    About Prayer

    Prayer is an opportunity to praise the God who created the world. Prayer is an opportunity to draw closer to the God who knows us personally.

    God Debate

    Sorry, one more thing. God is not a person. If you don't believe in spiritual beings than there is no way for you to comprehend this. Arguments based on God being a person are rubbish.

    God Debate

    ...extreme confusion...*gathers thoughts*...sorry about that I am very tired. The whole God is perfect therefore there is no God is absolute balderdash. God is perfect. Since we are not perfect we cannot comprehend true perfection. God created a perfect universe with people. These people...

    How can the New Testament be even remotely correct?

    I didn't look at the recent posts, but as for the original post... It will be hard for you to be swayed to believe in the validity of the New testement by this...however Christians (like me) believe that the Holy Spirit talked directly to the men and told them what to write... On a more...

    Evolution Vs. Creation, why are threads so popular?

    I think, as someone has already stated, they are so popular because the question of God's existence is so contraversial. I am a creationist. There is such a vast difference between evolution and creation that it is extremely difficult not to butt heads over the issue. I want to encourage you...

    ID, the scientific community, and bias

    I completely agree and applaud you. I thought this quote might be appropriate for such a post, though it was included in a message I wrote for another topic on the boards. "Evolution [is] a theory universally accepted not because it can be proven by logically coherent evidence to be true, but...

    Intelligent Design failures

    Also, I find it interesting that my post on the absurdity of vestigial legs in whales was not responded to in any way. Halcyon- One of the quotes was in the post, here is another from a leading biologist and science writer of his day "Evolution [is] a theory universally accepted not because it...

    Birds from Reptiles?

    Quote from leading evolutionist and world authority on birds Alan Feduccia on the so-called transitional fossil of Archaeopteryx: "Paleontologists have tried to turn Archaeopteryx into an earth-bound, feathered dinosaur. But it's not. It is a bird, a perching bird. And no amount of "paleobabble"...

    Intelligent Design failures

    Without said evidence there is no evidence for evolutionary theory... in fact you cannot call either id or evolution theories because they cannot be tested having supposedly happened in the past they actually are properly classified as models. Evolution has turned into a religion for many people...

    Intelligent Design failures

    I just went back and read page 4 which I had not before and hope I have not ignored any rules by bringing up evolution. I was simply disproving the whale bone evolutionary myth.

    Intelligent Design failures

    Agghhh... I did post a previous reply, but for some reason it made me log in again... can't you tell I'm new to this forum. God is perfect, genetic faults etc. came with Adam's sin. But we also don't have to take everything on faith as you say. You list a few paltry examples but fail to...
