Unfortunately, there is more truth to it than we care to admit as an American. Most of the graduates out of high school the last 8-10 years are unable to read at a 8th grade level.
This down hill spiral started back in the mid 60's when the US Supreme Court changed the definition of "church". , which was an unconstitutional act, but no one called them on it.,and it stood. Since the effects of that took place, the S>A>T> scores in US high schools has DROPPED over 80 points, but the home schooled, and Christian schools have not dropped at all, because they maintained God in their life, and education.
There are alot of "rich folks kids" that are very uneducated, doesn't pertain just to the poor folk.

To those that believe in evolution?
If the baby came before the woman...who took care of the baby?? That doesnt make any sense...feel free to explain how this was possible...we all know that babies cannot care themselves that proves that woman have to come first...if you think otherwise, please give a legitimate explanation

[When asked about Harry Potter]

does Harry Potter teach our kids about what is written in the Bible, about what Jesus wants people to learn about? of course not!

so you can guess my answer! it is a demonic, evil tale - not suitable for teaching kids anything that is pleasing to our Heavenly Father.

Why are the atheist and evolutionist worried about global warming?
If speaking in your terms that there is no Christ or God, everything is meaning less etc... Than why are you worried about your air supply, war all around you, energy shortage, etc... Shouldn't you be turning into some kind fish ( to accommodate your surroundings) or waiting for another big bang to happen? Can you explain to me why you care, all your going to do is die, right?

Hayden R #fundie answers.yahoo.com

[Please help me by reporting people who give answers to question with something like "Jesus is the way the truth and the light".

That is not a answer and furthermore I just don't care.]

Jesus IS the way, the truth, and the light.

It is appropriate to answer questions with this answer when it is necessary. He is the only way to Heaven and there is NO other way.

Bill R #fundie answers.yahoo.com

Non-believers, why is it............................—


.....that you claim one of the things that helps prove there is no God is that the different religions in the world are mostly contained in seperate geographical regions?

So what?

This dates back about 4,000 years ago when God decided to reveal the truth to one group of people in the world because everyone else on the planet was sinful and wasn't ready for the truth.

The truth was exposed in the first five books in the Bible.

Now, imagine if you spill something on a map of the world. It's going to spread slowly and not cover EVERYTHING instantly. It's going to take time.

Christianity is still spreading. That's why it's not everywhere yet. It takes TIME.

And don't bring up how my parents happened to be Christian as a reason why I am Christian. That is a coincidence.

Guess what, do you believe in evolution?

Do your parents believe in evolution too?

Does that automatically mean evolution is false?

I just don't believe in science. I feel that I would rather belong with loving people such as the people in
my church than people who tell me I won't go to heaven. I don't believe in science at all.

Lainey #fundie answers.yahoo.com

Q: How many fields of science have to be flawed for creationism to be valid?


"Actually none. All that would have to be done away with are methods that have proven flawed, such as you mentioned, radiometric dating. However, that doesn't throw out all work done in Nuclear Physics or concepts that work. Carbon dating also has to be thrown out because testing on material from Mt. St Helens erruption proved that new material can date old even when we know it's real age. However, to accept evolution you have to ignor many chemistry and biology scientists who keep asking for more time in order to make evolution probable. You also have to throw out everything we know about the linguistic evolution. Languages have historically become simpler since the beginning of recorded history. The more complex languages have died, and the languages still surviving are morphing to simpler and simpler versions. Language is in essence de-evolving over time. Are we to think the neanderthals spoke a highly complex tonal language which all of our many languages have evolved from? Evolution only happens in the real world as complex to simple. It doesn't happen the other way around. Therefore we could not have evolved from apes. Our ancestors had the most complex language."

The United States was created for the express purpose of worshiping God and we are a capitalist society because we follow Christ's teaching. Capitalism, conservative and Christian, all the same thing.

Nathaniel Winthrop #fundie answers.yahoo.com

Atheists: Have you really considered the full implication of your views?

The Atheists on R&S just shrug their shoulders and say " I know of no God, therefore no such God exists."

IGNORO ERGO DEUS NON EXISTAT

This blithe indifference and insouciance cannot go unpunished in the arena of intellectual and philosophical discourse.

The Atheists need to understand that there are consequences to their denial of the divine. They have chosen to refute the harmony of the cosmos and the natural order together with its laws, they have chosen to reject the purposeful creative power manifested in their very selves.

When you reject the fact that life has its origin in the divine, you present a dark and void alternative...a material and anarchic universe, blind and meaningless.

Is this what you really want?

[If a God had written the bible, wouldn't it be the most perfect book ever? Instead of a badly written book, full of mistakes, contradictions and absurdities?]

The bible is God-breathed. The Word of God has no mistakes, is inerrant, has no contradictions.

Man, however, is flawed.

Some insights for people who think Hell is unreasonable?
Ask yourself this question. Why don't we get mad at someone who steps on an ant, but we give 5-10 years in jail for someone who kills some dirty criminal, and life-in-jail (or death sentence) to someone who kills the president?

In all three instances someone murdered. So why the different punishment.

The only thing that changed in this scenario was the worth of the person/thing the crime was committed against. Wouldn't it then follow that crimes committed against an infinitely worthy person/thing would require an infinite punishment?

Christians, why is the Name of your God: LORD on toilets?
In all the English, and sometimes not English countries, the Name LORD and LADIES is on toilet doors.
2 King 10:18 - 27 King Jehu destroyed the worshipers of baal and made toilets from the house of baal.

Let's prove atheism!!?

Atheists claim that the universe come out from nothing, and then started evolving( change from nothing?)
So I thought we should do a little experiment to prove this falsehood:
Take a sealed glass tube. Using a vacuum pump, expel all the air. Spin it round in controlled environment of standard pressure and temperature. Stop spinning. What happened? Nothing!
Inference? Nothing can never come out of nothing.
Generalisation? atheism is unscientific.
Recommendation? There is God, read the Bible and pray. He will reveal Himself to you.

Alaska Joe #racist answers.yahoo.com

Dont you feel angry now with the Obama thing?

I am angry, i do not think a black person can do the job. When he discuss international matters he will always bring up the slavery-days. Its like putting a jew as a president and all he likes to talk about is the nonsense holocaust.
I think there is a reason why all previous presidents has been white, we do a good job.
Can you picture Obama going to Norway discussing something, he will only talk about the black slavery-days and the Norwegian will not be happy.
Im ashamed of this election, somehow i thought america would stick together in a good way. Now we show people in the world that the highest priority is multicultural instead of productivity. Sad, im crying when i write this.

(Why Don't some Christians believe in Tolerance for all?)

Tolerance is taught by those who are led by their feelings instead of their thoughts. God has only one way. He is intolerant. We must be about our Father's business, we can not be tolerant when the fate of the nation and ultimately the world is in question as it is today. Abortions, homosexuality, liberalism, sexual activity outside of marriage, cheating, lies and a host of other things are considered the norm today. All of it is against God. We cannot condone what God condemns.

Robert M #fundie answers.yahoo.com

Should I kick my gay son out of the house?

I have a 13 year old son that used to be a great kid. Unfortunately, I think some liberal teachers must've got to him in school and I recently caught him kissing another boy.

The Bible is pretty clear about this sort of thing. My son threatens the salvation of everybody in the house. I don't wan't to kick him out, but I also don't want to lose my chance at eternal paradise just to keep him around.

Is there a compassionate way of telling my son that I never want to see him again because I want to go to heaven? Or would compassion be a sin, afterall, he is a sinner. In the Bible, Lot's wife was turned into a pillar of salt for looking back at God's utter destruction of Sodom. I don't want to turn into a pillar of salt or go to hell.

Ok, I found out my brother is gay, So, I'm going to kick him out. I don't want him turning our little cousin gay when he comes over and what not. How much week notice should I give 1-3? He has no car, and what not. and no where else to go so by 20 days he should be able to find a new place right?

normobrian #fundie answers.yahoo.com

(Emphasis added by me)

Subject: Gay rights

Message: A straight person cannot marry the person of his choice; he can only marry the woman of his choice. Gays have the same right. Legally, they are both treated equally. ****Sexual attraction has never been a proponent for marriage.****

If two straight men wanted to marry for business advantages, just like many men and women do, that wouldn't be allowed. ****Marriage has nothing to do with love, attraction, or compatability.**** Straights marry for many reasons.

Straights and gays have the same choice, therefore, the same rights.

(This time he chose as the best answer an answer he disagreed with but still ranked it as 5 stars)

Why are Christian WOMEN so afraid of their God-ordained ROLES?

GOD created man and woman for seperate purposes. Man is the primary breadwinner, woman is his helpmeet. What is so scary about that? Why do women reject the idea of submission to men if it is in God's plan??

"God made me a strong-willed, independent woman with a mind of her own. If he had a designated "role" for me that was nothing more than a slave to a man, he wouldn't have made me this way.

You have some serious issues."

No Rachel God did not make you that way stop using God as an excuse for your depravity.

Why does it seem like such a bad thing that God made women to be submissive. Is it just our culture?

Why do women strive to go against God's will? When did it become a bad thing to have the man be in charge?

(Answerer)

Feminism was started by the Rockefellers who wanted more women in the workplace for three reasons:

1) More taxes collected
2) Children taken away and put into propaganda filled "public schools"
3) Some women would put work above child bearing at all, thus sterilizing them (in line with evil eugenics plans)

Feminism is a deception and it's amazing how many have fallen for it, only to realize on the other side that it was a lie all along. I thank God daily that my wife didn't fall for it.

SadieAnn_1917 #fundie answers.yahoo.com

The church elders are not in anyone's business. This is a belief of the church period. I can do whatever I want, because in the end, it is between me and God. I don't want to do oral sex because it just seems degrading and disrespectful to both man and woman. I won't judge you, so don't judge me and my church's beliefs. Oral sex is apart of sodomy. Those mystery juices don't belong in your mouth.

Morgoth's Bane #fundie answers.yahoo.com

Abortion is murder. The morning after pill leads to the death of the child in the mother's womb, which is also murder.

Birth control pills are a device created by men so men could have more sex with women and is one of Satan's deceptions, masking the true nature of love that God desired. Birth control is not Biblical and is anti-Christian.

If women were born pregnant, abortion wouldn't be a contentious issue.

Abstinence is God's only policy when it comes to sex before marriage and society would be much better if we publicly executed abortion doctors and those who rape and perpetrate sexual crimes against women instead of murdering innocent children.

mexangl716 #fundie answers.yahoo.com

Where Does the "Big Bang Theory" say the animals got their names?

The Bible says that God brought the animals to Adam for him to name in Genesis 2:19. By naming all of the animals, Adam demonstrated that he was master over them, as God gave man dominion over all of his creatures.

Biblical Examples

The Bible indicates that when someone names another person or thing, it shows that he has power over them. For example, you'll find the Pharaoh renaming one of the kings of Judah.

Then Pharaoh Necho made Eliakim the son of Josiah king in place of his father Josiah, and changed his name to Jehoiakim (2 Kings 23:14).

There is also the episode of the Babylonians renaming Daniel and his three friends when they were brought captive to Babylon (Daniel 1).

Anyway, my point is, that our God is a God of order. Scripture even says by the mouth of God himself that "Let all things be done decently and in order. 1 Cor 14:40. The account of Creation was done exactly as written. Creation is a fact, It has already occured and God, Elohim the creator and sustainer of all life is maker of all things! He is INDESCRIBABLE! God says Adam, the first man named all creatures. What do the other theories say about where we got names for the creatures? Does anyone have that type of information? Christians have the Word of God which I can confidently say is the truth concerning all things. If you want the truth, The Holy Bible is where to find it. God bless!

For Atheists - why are we not gorillas!?
It's pretty late, and this isn't my most well thought out question ever, but this might shake the tree of some light-weights.

If evolution is supposed to constantly move organisms towards greater complexity and ability to survive. And if we decended from a common-ancestor like the gorillas. Then why aren't we like gorillas? I mean having the intelligence of a human in a gorilla body would be great. You'd be much stronger and more agile etc.

[How come atheists on here never attack Hinduism, Wicca, Islam etc. they always go after Christianity?]

"Because Christianity is the most intelligent of all belief systems and it is the only true belief system and atheists are terrified of the fact that it is true and consider Christianity a threat. Christianity is a threat to every other belief system that humans have invented to destroy worship of the one true God, His Spirit and his Son, our Savior Christ.

Jesus Himself warns in John 15, that society would not kiss up and that people would indeed hate Christians and even the church would be so Pharisaical it would seek to burn alive the genuinely devout.

So until Christ returns to clean house, there will never be a love affair between non-believers and Jesus."

What hope does atheism truly offer humanity?

I mean no disrespect to my fellow atheist's on the R&S. It's just that, I understand that different faiths offer hope is many different ways. As a born-again Christian I have the hope of eternal life through Jesus Christ. But to be honest atheism, as it pertains to giving hope, is an enigma to me.

You WON'T BELIEVE THIS!!! I found an entire document that dissproves evolutionary evidence and supports the 'intelligent design' / creation viewpoint. Go to www.answersbook.org and TyPE in CHapter 92. (real, scientific evidence). It shocked me!!! HOW does evolution explain this?! Also has quotes from TOP scientists (incl. Einstein and Newton) that show that even THEY doubt the realism of evolution... It's probability of happening is like 1 in [a number followed by like a million billion something zeroes].

CAN WE RISK IT??? If evolution/ big bang really is incorrect, can we ignore the possibility that God may actually exist? Meaning we're risking our eternities and the possibility of ending up in hell?

Scientists are humans with flaws and shortcomings just like us. No one can say they are 100% correct.

In the sense of "freedom", shouldn't they make Polyandry and incest marriages legal also? what about inter-species marriage or what if I wanted to marry a tree?

John W #fundie #homophobia answers.yahoo.com

I don't hate anyone. Homosexuality just turns my stomach. It’s the natural reaction to something clearly not of God. The Bible will answer all of your questions.

It doesn't matter whether homosexuality is innate or by choice.

I believe that some homosexuals are born that way.

I was born a sinner... just like some are born gay.

Gays are like any other Christian in that they are sinners.

We are only saved through Faith in Jesus King of Kings.

Our Sins become white as snow.

The problem with most Gays is that they celebrate rather than repent of their sin. Ever hear of someone reveling in murder and thievery? It’s an abomination that occurs seldom. "Gay Pride" is an outright stance against God.

Like I said...I was born a sinner... just like some are born gay. However I do not participate in "Sin Pride" parades.

May you and all of your gay buddies become gay Christians.

God Bless You.

Why are most of the Atheist I've met are lacking love in them and most had a bad experience in their childhood?

Is that the reason they are angry with God and religious people. And have become thick and dont want to listen to anyone? And then they stopped relying on God and thought of making things work on their own. Thats fine if they did that but they should not make people like them who are already happy being religious and are proud to be following their religion.

After all, there are no permanent consequences for your actions. No Heaven or Hell.....so why not?

Joseph Gordon Ph.D #fundie answers.yahoo.com

Why do so many people question God? Is it not obvious God is all around us? I mean he created this universe and us in his image. Is that not enough evidence for you? What about sending his beloved son to die on the cross so sinners like us would have a shot at getting into heaven? Is that not evidence either? For me I have my faith in God and can't wait to see what heaven is like. I can't wait to live in my mansion and walk the lovely streets of gold.
