When trying to understand if prayer has ever been shown to actually work, I recall a friend who gave me a "my mother had cancer, then it went away" story about why he knows prayer works. No mention of the oncologist that treated her, btw. I'm sure we have all heard something similar.

2 Corinthians 6:14
14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
As a Christian, I was convinced that anyone who did not believe what we believed was wrong and in "darkness" and I...
I'm an average U.S. born American, whose descendants came to the U.S. so many generations ago that I have no idea why they risked it all to come here in the first place. I have to admit, I am not well versed in the details of the Israel/Palestine conflict. All I know is that in the old...
Talk about a click-bait style title! I heard this comment once (can't remember where) and thought it was really interesting. I'm speaking specifically to American Christian men & women. No offense to those with other religious beliefs, I just do not know if this will apply to other theology...

If I were to make a list of the top 10 reasons why I lost all faith in the Christian narrative, I think the fundamental “fall of man & need for salvation” concept would be #1. Could this be the most immoral religious idea still in practice today? Having lived it, loved it, felt it, shared it for...
Has anyone else been keeping up with what is happening with independent media? Anyone watching Breaking Points on YouTube?
For a long time I have been under the impression that the real issue with American politics (and our government in general) is the ruling class of wealthy elites are...
I've seen "How Big is the Universe" type videos before, but nothing like this. It's really amazing! I'd encourage everyone to take 10 minutes and check it out.
When watching this video, I can help but to think about how small and insignificant we are. I wonder what that little blue dot...
When it comes to homosexuality, there seems to be two primary points of view: You are either born this way, or you choose it. I am convinced that it is not a choice and that almost anyone can be convinced its not a choice in very short order. Are there any Christians here who still think its a...
