Needkarma,
So then call it a discussion group. I said anybody can ask any question. If they want a christian answer since they are in the christianity section, only a christian should answer. If you...

All life comes from God alone. Nothing living and no matter at all would exist except for God starting it all.
The fact that a one week old baby dies at all is proof of original sin inherited from...

If a person is asleep in his apartment and the building catches fire, It is our duty in love to warn them and try to help them escape. This is why Peter preached to the Jews. Sometimes the sleeping...

Fred,
So a whole family was baptized. What were their ages? My parents and all their children are saved. The whole family has been baptized. I'm the "youngster" of the family (my Dad always...

Some believe the jews have a free ride so to speak. Paul was pretty clear on the matter. He was what we would call a Jew's Jew.He did everything exactly the way jewish law prescribed and followed all...

If there were others before Adam and Eve, there would have been death before sin. If there were death before sin then the Bible is wrong when it states that death entered the world through the sin of...

Isn't it weird that "the system" lets me give greenies to anyone I choose, yet continually blocks me giving TJ3 the thumbs up? It's almost like "the system" lets their personal beliefs help keep Tom...

Fred,
I'm only answering because I asked you the question of showing me a single verse of very young children being baptized.
In Acts 2:38 you ignore that Peter says Repent before he tells them to...

Zig Ziglar often said, "If you let a hypocrite stand between you and God...which one of you is closer to God?"
And, "If you keep throwing dirt at people, you're just losing ground."
And, "the...

Fred, please give me one verse that even hints that children were Baptized.
Dedicated, yes, like Samuels mother dedicated Samuel. John's Baptism(John the Baptist) was for the Hebrews and was a...

sarah_20pgn,
1. You're ahead of many that seek God in that you admit you've made a ton of mistakes like we all have.
2. God wants a relationship with you(and all of us)
3. Because no amountof...

Wg,
That's not oxygen but CO2. Her point was that we believe in many things we can't see, like atoms. Some things we cannot see but we can see the effects of their presence. Light, Wind, etc.

Athos,
About the rocks. Basically you're saying I'm using bad science because I used a faulty scientific study? Don't you see that is the whole point! As soon as they were found out they blamed...

Classyt,
I can't stay away but from now on I'll just answer the questions instead of getting into personal discussions which usually devolve into ad hominem attacks and knocking down straw men.
The...

I'm not the one that tested the rocks. Am I to be blamed that their testing methods were faulty? If they used faulty testing methods how am I using bad science?
So they no longer do testing like...

In addition to what Fr_chuck said, there is absolutely NO evidence that hinduism has been around some 20,000 years. (There is no evidence of ANY religious activity beyond 6500 years ago.) Even if you...

The 6 day creation is one of the foundations to our religion in that we believe that sin entered the world with Adam and Eve, the wages of sin is death, and there was no death prior to Adam and Eve...

Yup. No need to discuss this at all. No question is asked and most people really don't care if what christians consider Holy days were once considered pagan ritual days. Every day has only the...

Again, these rocks and artifacts didn't come with a tag saying "X" number of years old. The dating methods are dubious at best and every dating method relies on underlying assumptions about the...

As you quoted, I said neither one was a valid argument. There is no proof of our origins, either evolution or by God. One must have faith in one or the other.

Thanks Fred.
Every time a number is used with the word "day" in the bible, it means an ordinary day. Every time evening or morning is mentioned, it means an ordinary day, so when the Bible says...

Science is observation of testable results by repeated actions.
For example, a bowling ball is dropped. It goes down. We call it gravity.
A bowling ball is dropped at the same time a feather is...

Almost anything is possible. Are you talking about being re-married to the same person, or do you mean you got drunk and are not even sure you knew the person before your big wedding day and now want...

If I'm wrong then the Bible is wrong because it clearly states there were only 2 people on earth, Adam and Eve and Eve, being the "mother of all living" gave birth to many children. Yes Cain went...

I don't post to get replies. That's why I never ask questions. My satisfaction comes from believing that someone reads my answer and says,"hey I never thought about it that way before. Maybe thinking...

You, thanks speechlesstx,
Needkarma, my comments were addressed to fred and Rachie, I simply answered her question not checking to see when it was asked. Just because she asked the question long...

Hello Jim,
I appreciate your position. As the last line of my statements said, I certainly do believe that one can be in a saving knowledge of God and still believe in some form of evolution.
I...

Quote from Arcura -
"rachie,
I once was one of those who spoke out strongly against the Catholic Church and tried to turn people away from it.
Then I began wondering about my own Protestant...

The Bible is clear that we are all descended from Adam and Eve - why we all have sinful blood in us - why Jesus was born of a virgin woman where his sinless blood came from God the Father.

Your friend is going down the wrong path in a deep dark forest and thinks that groping in the...

God doesn't tease you.
Would you rather never to have reconnected with the guy and heard about his death, or are you thankful for the short time you were re-united?

Without trials and tribulation, we would never grow. Some of the most worthless human beings on earth are the ones that have been given everything their heart desires from the time they were born -...

Jesus always rallyed against oral tradition.
"You have heard it said, but I say... "
Is said many times and written as scripture. Should we take the oral tradition over what Jesus says?
Many times...

Never heard that one before and I've been to all kinds of denominational churches and even some cults. Next thing will maybe be we can't come to Christ for forgiveness till we clean up our act and...

Even today I sometimes meet people that "brag" about who baptized them or what church they attend, who their preacher or priest is, or what family member is a priest or preacher as if any of that,...

JimGunther,
My point about 50 scientists that believe is that these aren't just people off the street like your 50 that believe in sex with minors(a curious analogy) but actual Phd's in the subject...

Really Fred?
It's recorded that Jesus never baptized anybody Though John the Baptizer and others obviously did before Jesus ministry. And I've read all through 16 versions of the bible and don't...

Many churches nowadays have a daycare area for toddlers and Sunday school or its equivalent for older children. Go where the word of God is preached. You won't know if it's the word of God unless you...

First, Love never forces someone to do something.
Second, you deserve a man that loves you and is willing to commit to you.
Third, because we pray for something doesn't mean it's what is best for...

Jesus was never angry with the thieves or prostitutes. His righteous anger was directed solely at the "good church folk" who "acted" pious but cared little for their fellow man. The leaders saw the...

In those days, if you were living in a country that was not your own, you were usually a slave of some type. Returning to the homeland speaks of being set free just as we were formerly slaves of sin,...

White supremists have maintained the so-called "black" race is due to the so-called "curse of Ham" Read Genesis 9:24-28 and you will see that Ham was not cursed then, or ever,(his son Canaan was) and...

Short answer. God always answers prayer. Sometimes it is yes and sometimes it's no and sometimes God says, "Thanks for the input but I'm gonna do things my way"
God told the "friends" of Job that he...

When dealing with any non-believers, the main issue is authority. What is their authority? To whom do they look for the ultimate answers? If it is other men, ask why they think someone else (Just...

Since there is only one race, the human race, inter-racial dating would mean dating someone not human. The Bible forbids that. All of us are descended from Adam and all have different amounts of...

It says the breath of life... not as Jesus blew on the disciples and said, "recieve the Holy Spirit" we did inherit life from Adam. "Let everything that has breath, praise the Lord."

On what basis, if not the Bible are you basing your opinions of right and wrong? When you say "God wants "everyone" to be happy, does "everyone" mean "everyone" or do you just mean everyone except...
