The bedrock of marriage has for the better part always been between a man and a woman, period! Now, if you'd care to prove otherwise then please feel free to do so. And try keeping it in the Eurocentric and American perspectives and not some tiny village in South America or something.
if you take the story of the flood as true, and re-evaluate the history of man, and change the scientific views accordingly (eg carbon dating systems being well out...), then the flood account is easily true... you dont want to take into consideration that evolution maybe wrong... and im not using pseudo science, you are!!
Another thing I just found out. I got that information (how scientists measure radiometric dating [and its limitations]) out of a book... the source of that statment, an article from the Annals of New York Academy of Science, volume 288... The[ir] website...has almost every single volume of that magazine- except volume 288! They know. They know that if a creationist got ahold of that sort of information... there will be hell to pay. Sure, it sounds like an Evil Atheist Conspiricy like WinAce has on his homepage- but I think that's what it is.
No, genocide is the 'punishing' of groups of people because of who they are and the hateful feelings toward them by fabricating their crimes. While the Israelites were God's capital punishers of actual criminals.
Ya that book [The Da Vinci Code] is evil. Just because some of the facts in there are true people are gonna read it and think all the things about it are true.
IF the e.u. [European Union] makes an announcement they have found irrefutable evidence of a past civilization on Mars could that pave the way for some kind of a 'first contact' event...maybe even the introduction of the a.c. [Antichrist]?
If there is anyone I could think of in which I would spit on, it is a member of the aclu! I can't even capitalize their initials just as I can't and won't capitalize the s in satan!!!
Thousands upon thousands of scientists are creationists, so that sorta counterballances your few, doesn't it?
I commend you for it Hayden, honestly... it had to be said.
God didnt create him........he was an angel who sined and got kicked out of heaven.
[After cries of 'strawman!']I can see... that you no longer believe everything I say but that just proves the lack of security the theory creates, that was the accepted fact a while ago...
Perhaps you are right. Maybe God had no other choice except blood sacrifice... You need to look at the character and nature of God. What is it about God's character that requires Him to ordain a blood sacrifice?
The persecution you speak of like Churches being shut down,Bibles being burned, etc. may not be happening yet,but could happen soon. Do you deny that the secularists in this country headed by groups like the ACLU want to completely remove Christianty from our society?
I don't believe that most people are intelligent enough to realize without the Holy Spirit that harming another is wrong, as I believe that most non-religious people don't give a hoot about anyone but themselves. It's been made clear throughout these threads over and over. I think that the fear of spending life in prison keeps non-religious people from killing/harming one another.
then if no creator then how can their be a creation? Even in your theory the Molecules Collided....wouldnt that in theory make the molecules the creator?
[Replying to 'the Bible has *real* magic trees and talking snakes']And real volumes about degenerate reprobates and their eternal destiny.
Oh, dear friend, religion and government WILL mix. Here...AND EVERYWHERE for that matter. It's just a matter of time. Just hope 'we' aren't on the wrong sie of the fence when that time comes.
it must be millions of years old, but then the carbon dating techiniques are only accurate back 30 million years... the bible account of a flood some 4,000 or more years ago would easily compensate for the huge shift in carbon levels, and so putting our carbon dating systems well out.
there hasnt been a international survey of the area where the ark is. if there was, then national geographic would feature it. incidentally, national geographic is run by top scientists, who all make a lot of $$ by publishing there evolution theories and discoveries in such publications. there could easily be bias against such an expidtion...
... the calendar has remained basically the same with some minor changes happening when we went from a Julian to a Gregorian calendar or vice versa... Its really a miracle if you think about it and I almost believe that God has had a hand in maintaining the weekly cycle through the years. Theres certainly no logical reason to hold onto a 7 day week cycle. A ten day cycle would probably work better but the fact we have stayed on the present system speaks for a possible supernatural support of it.
This topic comes up over and over and over... Would it be possible to start a new forum; and name it accordingly? Something like 'God Haters R Us' or 'We Are All Going To Hell'? Maybe one of you elite could get IH [the administrator] to hook that up for ya!
The scientific theory believes that 'chance' gave every living organism to evolve into a greater species. Much like monkeys into humans.
Someone posted awhile back, that we should all pray for the eyes of Americans to be opened to the agenda of the ACLU [American Civil Liberties Union]. Well, it has been in my daily prayers. My husband (not saved) Loves the ACLU and we are constantly getting stuff in the mail from them. YUCK. I have been praying that the eyes of my husband will be opend to this garbabge ...
How many of these mental disorders are actually demonically infliuenced? If it were as simple a thing as speking the name of Jesus in faith and curing them? Does it not seem worth investigation? Yet most will reject the idea out of hand.
Hey Zulu, dump a gallon of gas over your head; and light yourself on fire... I think you will find that after your death; this was good practice for your soul.
Just asking. Im a fundamentalist, It makes me sick that there is a movie that says Return of the King and Jesus isnt the main topic.
I tend to think the mars structures were used to bring glory to GOD when satan and his followers used to worship GOD. They have done measurements on the lattitudes and longitudes of the structures and they are exactly the same as the pyramids on earth or somehting like that. I don't think their are any other civilizations in this universe and I think anything we find 'up there' will be satans doing.
Life isn't fair and it wasn't meant to be. Just suck it up (deal with the fact that your gay marriage isn't accepted, legally and/or socially - at this time) and move on...
The Earth used to have another layer around the biosphere which was mostly moisture(most anthropoligists agree the earth used to stay at a constant temperature-this may help explain why...) , and a passing planet with an elliptical orbit to our own destroyed it, causing a great rain in some form or another... As far as I know this as the same as the planet x theory, 12th planet, or nibiru
as i stated before it wasent actualy scientific proof. It is proof acording to mine and 40 other peoples experiance that night. 40 people cant all have been wrong.
We did not start the war in Iraqu; the Muslim nations started the war with their attack on 9/11 in New York City.
From a Christian perspective, demonic activity is more than sufficient to explain the numerous religions.
Wow. I will be wearing my 'filter' if they release reports that seem to fall into the category of deception that Jesus warned of. My concern is that fallen angels are about to pass themselves off as our alien space brothers.
I'm askin if you have heard of this specific theory, because its really not too far fetched
Beware of any reports of 'human type' life being discovered in space. At its worse, it will be a lie. At its best, it will be demon related in some way.
... I have definately read enough material from both views over the years, cause like you said if someone is challenging me I want to know enough to be able to understand where that person is from.
Any day now, I'm expecting someone to open a thread titled: 'BREAKING: Churches must remove all references to Jesus' The ACLU is paving a wide smooth road to hell for many people.
You shouldn't make the mistake of thinking that Biblical PRINCIPLES change over time. The Bible should not be tailored to conform to society. It doesn't matter what your spouse thinks your role is. It matters what GOD says your role is.
Ah don't worry Arthur... I realize it's hard for you Marxist buffoons to comprehend logic. ;-) Homosexuals are sick and twisted, disease-ridden, child molesting, vial, filthy, violent, disgusting, Christianphobic, abominable perverts and their actions prove this out EVERY TIME!
Cute, but it[Relativity i]s not confusing to me at all. I just happen to disagree with it.
Evolution can't be denied, we can see it happening around us today. What we don't see happening is evolution on a scale that would in any way account for the existence of the universe.
Don't you think it's absolutely insulting to man to say claim that he had been around for millions of years, and yet just invented the automobile 100 years ago? That may be a bad example, but do you see what I'm getting at? I mean...do you really think it took man millions of years for someone to get on a boat, sail to America, and find out the world is round?
Um.. okay, yea, the age thing is a big thing, because the earth is not that old and scientist's can proove it. Um as for you being an atheist, you could have never been a Christian in the first place.. it just doesn't work that way like other religions.. you were just interested in it, or thought you were a Christian.. No offense..
Too Curious, If a person does not worship Jesus as the one true God they are followers of Satan. Jesus is the only way. There is not one other way outside of him alone.
Its kinds cool all the things scientist have found that point to God and his existance. God created everything and everyone and I think DarkPrimus [a sarcastic atheist] said it best when he said 1.) I exist... 2.) You exsist... 3.) therefore God exist
Fleetwood, this country and you have been freed by our Christian roots both through salvation and quality of life. You are deceived by Satan when you believe that we shouldn't be displaying the grace that has been bestowed on us at all times [on government buildings and so on].
the usual propaganda. If catholics thought that non catholics were really christians too, this would not even be an issue.
[Replying to 'Still not seeing the connection']Propaganda. I even saw a TV commercial in the past year showing someone with a bar code on their head. <u>This stuff is done to desensitize us to technology that could potentially track us.</u>
following is my analysis of Islamic invasion of America, the agenda of Islamists and visible methods to take over America by the year 2020! Will Americans continue to sleep through this as they did when we were attacked on 9/11?
Are you a Christian? Because your statement about 65 million years ago, kind made me ask..
