    If someone really is 100% forgiven, then why do they die?

    More than one biblical person didn't die. Their sins weren't so bad they didn't have to die. OK. Now we have a theology that says you must be 100% forgiven or you'll go to hell, be tortured forever in infinite pain and suffering, gnashing of teeth, boils, hot lava, calls from telemarketers...

    Did Jesus say he was God???

    Let's see, 1. They accuse Jesus 2. of Blasphemy 3. for claiming to be God. 1. Just because your opponants accuse you of saying something, does not mean that's what you said. 2. Everyone agrees that claiming to be God would be blasphemy (if you are not God.) 3. If Jesus was...

    Is everything relative? The "Prime Directive" is evil

    Suppose they oppress women? Suppose their children have diseases and go blind? Suppose they get a simple infection and fester and suffer for years? Imagine a doctor, going in and setting up shop. As soon as they learned what the doctor can do, the lines would stretch around the block...

    Did Jesus say he was God???

    So, what does it mean to be 'God's Son'? If I wrote, 'God's Messenger' is at the door. We would both conclude the person at the door is not God Himself, but someone speaking on behalf of God. If I wrote, 'God's Universe', again, the Universe is not God, it was made by and belongs to God...

    Is everything relative? The "Prime Directive" is evil

    If another country would invade Native American lands, should anyone help defend them? Why? Why spend a dime? 1. If Native Americans have a historical 'complaint', why listen? Is there a moral obligation to rectify past wrongs? 2. If some Native Americans adopt non-Native American...

    Is everything relative? The "Prime Directive" is evil

    Deep in the jungle of South America, there exists a tribe of uncivilized people. They have had no contact with the modern world. Should we leave them alone, unspoiled by modern influences? When I read about these people, I was horrified at the suggestion that we 'leave them alone' and...

    The Myths of Christianity

    What if God is the 'fuel'? Are electrons needed in a universe without order? And is this universe completely chaotic and random? If so, then our bank accounts would fluctuate in and out of existence... or just out. It's one thing to say that typing 'God' does not answer the question...

    Would you kill a baby to save your life? / Circumstances?

    I, like W. C. Fields, love children boiled.

    Did Jesus say he was God???

    He never called himself, "God". (if so, please provide the verse) He said we all could be 'sons of God.' (the verse is Mat 5:9) He normally called himself, 'Son of Man'. (that's not a claim to be God) I agree Jesus thought of himself as special, a major teacher, teaching something Jesus...

    Would you kill a baby to save your life? / Circumstances?

    What if it was a very small boat? What if it was an adult Nazi holding a gun on a hostage? "flock" = Students or birth children? What if it was an adult bank robber who threatened to shoot off the leg of a hostage? You think, that's your best guess, or you know for a fact? I don't...

    Would you kill a baby to save your life? / Circumstances?

    As for the next noisy child in the movie theatre, I would not kill the child. That's what I promised the parole board. Unsaved Christian Babies = rock band, lol! {I wrote 'unsaved Christian babies' because I didn't want to say 'unsaved babies' in the Holocaust, because that could be read...

    If I figured out the unified theory of everything and...

    Would that protect you? I, too, put my ideas on a forum in the past, nut gum (gum with nuts in it), mayo-fish (tuna which was fed mayonase so you don't have to put mayo in your tuna), disposal toilets (putting a garbage disposal in your toilet so they won't get clogged), but does doing...

    Would you kill a baby to save your life? / Circumstances?

    So Christians should not fight in wars at all? What if the war is against Hitler and he's throwing unsaved Christian babies into the flames? 1. Define 'allow'. I would vote for a law banning goods from countries where products are made at wages below ours and by children. ... except, what...

    Would you kill a baby to save your life? / Circumstances?

    NOT FOR THE FEINT OF HEART. DO NOT READ IF YOU ARE SENSITIVE, PREGNANT, ELDERLY, HAVE A HEART CONDITION, USE A PACEMAKER, OR ARE UNDER 42 INCHES TALL. PLEASE REMAIN SEATED AT ALL TIMES. PLACE ALL LOOSE ARTICLES IN THE BINS AT RIGHT. SEAT BELTS MUST BE FASTENED. Under what circumstances...

    Accuracy of biblical prophecy

    Do you think any of the Old Testament is younger than 2,000 years ago? Given the scattering of the Jews across the world at about that time, and the split from the Jews the Christians shortly after, and given that both groups hold basically the same Old Testament as holy, and the animosity...

    If God really told you to murder (really)... would you?

    The definition of 'murder' as illegal killing is fine, unless the legal standing is in question. For instance, when the Nazis 'legally' (under the Enabling Act) killed in the concentration camps, it's still considered 'murder' because it was "manifestly unlawful." "For the purposes of this...

    If God really told you to murder (really)... would you?

    Wait a second... Now did god say to murd....I mean kill them? Because if god said to murd...I mean kill them, then it cannot possibly be murder. Why not? 'Murder' is the killilng of someone innocent. The only debate is if the murder should be done, 'permitted murder'. (Just like...

    Remember back when Bush was president...

    I think Bush was the best President we've had in a long time. I think it's shameful how he was treated by radical liberals. For the record, I think Bill Clinton was almost as good, better in some ways, and Obama is not as bad as his detractors believe. George Bush was a sincere man, good for...
