The thing that I dont get about evolution, where are the half-evolved races??? Shouldn't there be monkeys with campfires and makeshift houses? Art or music? Maybe, Bigfoot is it right?

see the perfect hypocritical christian,implying hate and hoping for my demise? see the fire burning evil smiley? ahh...i dont agree so send me to hell,dont help me...
antithesis of christianity..
but,spot on for a christian..
i hope you choke on a turkey bone and your last thoughts as you fade into darkness are "why arent my prayers saving me....?help me jesus..."
but live through the science of medicine..
you want me to go to hell..your post implies it.
i want you to live a great life.ALL my posts imply that.a fun filled life.full of education,and love and understanding...unless youre christian..then u must suffer till you see the truth(see,sucks when youre in the nonbelievers shoes)
gobble gobble...

and thats why i love you...
i didnt need a book of hypocrisy and wars and shame and tithings to teach me that.

show those christian colors for the world to really see!

i dissagree..wheres the respect for us? if im forced to live among the crazies,im pointing it out every chance i get..shove that shit down my familys throats in politics and everyday life,making laws based on it with no consideration for non belivers..
liberty university is the ruler of my local govt.students are encoraged to vote republican/christian in the local election(and are reprimanded if found voting otherwise,i shit you not..students are encouraged to barc out other students so the school can kick em out and keep tuition!
so they vote,change the govt,economy for 2 years,but live here 5 months of the year..the 5 months my city is a conservative douche city..
i have no respect for religous fuck sticks.sorry...

Hey I'm sorry you get shit. I've gotten it myself but my family luckily accept me as the heathen I am. Living in a liberal spot also works out too.

I do see the laws and policies that promote religions.


That's why I donate to the Freedom From Religion Foundation.

I'd like to think that *if* there is a higher power, and we have to pass some test to enter the club, we'll be judged based upon what kind of person we are and the life that we lead instead of just going to church once a week and saying all the right things.

But that's it right there. this applies to us all--if you've ever lied, taken something that wasn't yours, lusted after a woman (or man in my case) that is not your spouse, etc., then to be judged by those standards that would make us liars, thieves, adulterers, etc. So based off of those standards, a holy God who is expecting sinless perfection on Judgment Day, would find us guilty. so the problem is that every person born is going to die because of sin. we not only need help from this "first" death but we need help from what Jesus mainly warned about, the "second" death--and that's hell. in fact, Jesus warned more of hell during His ministry than describing the joys of heaven. it's something that we can't obtain (the ten commandments--the law--were to show that men cannot keep them and needs help) by ourselves because of our nature, therefore a loving God made a simple Way out for us. it happens to be what Jesus did on the Cross. He defeated Death. that's why He is the only One who has said, "I am The Way, The Truth, and The Life."
even though it's hard to accept the "fairy tale" of Adam and Eve and the Garden of Eden and the curse of death being brought about by sin, it is the truth. That's why John 3:16 says "For God so loved the world, He sent His Son" because it was a great act of love in that while we were in enmity with God as sinners, He sent His Son to take the punishment rightly deserved by those who in faith would believe He is The Way and then choose to have a relationship with Him.

Christians aren't trying to shove it down your throat--they are trying to warn you.

i have to say this has been the most respectful thread discussing a difficult topic. kudos to everyone here for having an actual adult conversation! seriously-the respectful dialogue has just made this a good topic and has been nice to read. thanks for everyone making it so interestingly civil.

to the OP, you should seriously consider root riot cubes again.

Actually Jesus spoke of Hell extremely infrequently. Only place it's really discussed is Revelations, which some sects such as the one I was raised in, paid it no mind.

Jesus was a dude about love and respect. The only time that directly comes to mind that he did that wasn't loving was throwing the bankers out of the temple.

And a Happy Thanksgiving to you, including st0w, amos, and all ya'll up on in this thread.

Haha! Well played!

I recently visited some southern states that I had never been to. If they don't have a hockey team, chances are I've never been to that state.

So, I travelled through Kentucky, Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, Florida...... and I was surprised at how nice Alabama was. I even stopped at a Chik Fil A to really take in the culture and local cuisine (their honey mustard sauce is amazing). Even though there was a Hobby Lobby and Wal Mart in every Podunk town I still found it kind of charming.

Mississippi and parts of Tennessee (Memphis) were much worse IMO

or,realize its a story meant to scare you into molds of christian society..however you want to word it,its still an archaic form of control,based on nothing in this world thats real..virgins giving birth,talking bushes/snakes,water walking,40days of rain..
how come these are once in an eternity occurances?
think history,and the place humanity was in back then intellectually,as well as technologically..
and really think...
its all a ruse for contol and money..kings contolled chruches and vice versa..why?
scaring the masses into submission with stories beats paying a lot of people to do it for
you..
you can afford more gold crosses that way.

do you believe in zombies and magic men?
cause thats all i read above...its not possible(unless youre in "serpent and the rainbow") to die and live again 3 days later..and any logical human can see that..and when you base the beginning of a life ruling story with complete absurdity,expect logical people to scoff and poke fun...
you would at the "spirits of the west wind" if you were at a wiccan theatrical event..or at the thought of only 100,000 people exactly being able to enter a pretend castle of alabaster...
i got some land in florida for sale if i havent changed your views...great price,beautiful estate!
happy bird day!

the story of Lazarus and the rich man in luke is told by Jesus as a warning of hell. in Matthew 10:28, Jesus warns to fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell; Matthew 25:46 warns of who will go to everlasting punishment; in Mark 43:48 it is again Jesus warning about hell; in 2 Thessalonians it talks about the eternal punishment; in Hebrews 10 it warns about the fury of the fire in hell; in 2 Peter God warns that He did not spare the angels when He cast them into hell; Mark 9:48 talks about hell "where the worm never dies;" Ecclesiastes 8:10 it warns of the grave and many other references throughout the entire Bible referencing the awful reality of hell.

check this video out:
http://www.nowtheendbegins.com/pages/doctrine/the-awful-reality-of-hell.htm

the video doesn't do hell justice as to how terrible it will be...

lot of great science helped make that video..where the "how awesome heaven will be" video? hmmm...not much need for that..control is lost..
"the story of Lazarus and the rich man in luke is told by Jesus as a warning of hell. in Matthew 10:28, Jesus warns to fear Him who is able...."
exactly...you got it! STORY.

i think that the rich man is sitting in hell to this day still wishing he had that drink of water. the fact that a story is being told regarding a topic does not mean it is not a true story.

ETA: rory420420 did you have enough time to actually watch the video in its entirety? sure it is lacking on graphic effects, but there is truth there.

See,repeating the same unimportant information over and over again will not make it valid,real or otherwise substantial in your persuasion..science keeps coming up with new examples..religion using an old beat up story fulla holes...
the definition of insanity is....well,we all know that definition..lets not try to perpetuate insanity.please.
teach reality,not regret.

there isn't one piece of actual scientific evidence that has ever been found that contradicts the Bible.
