Quote# 16812

[In response to a science article describing the atmospheric "haze" on Saturn's moon Titan as resembling the atmosphere theorized for the early Earth, possibly providing nourishment for early life forms.]

In a way, they are saying God did it. The haxe they are speaking of closely resembles the 'filament' that surrounded the Earth before the Great Flood.

Quote# 16814

Sometimes I wonder if God helps us in small ways. Say I drop something to the floor, like happened to me the other day. When I bend over to pick it up, it stretches my back after sitting all day. It resulted in unexpected relief to my aching spine. Did God "help" me to drop that item, knowing it would result in relief to my aching back? Does He care about the small things? Absolutely. Does he do the same thing for the Atheist? There's no doubt in my mind. It is my feeling that Christ sets their beliefs aside and does what He can to accomodate them. While I was typing this in, I got an update notice from Firefox browser, that the jsLib Lite extension had a new release, and was ready to self-install on my command. One could look at that and say, "Hmm, js=jesus? The Prince of Light/Lite?". Did Jesus inspire me to write that first paragraph? It's entirely possible. He can, afterall, stop my hard drive on a dime or send anything through my computer at whatever time he wants. It's all under his command. Yes, even my computer.

Quote# 16826

What does science say? I was told that we are make up of elements. Where do the elements come from that make us up? Mars? Venus? Earth? It is amazing the extent deceived people go to in order to try to avoid the truth.

When I was growing up they use to say we were make up of about $10 worth of elements that could be bought from any science supply catalog. Now perhaps it would be three times that amount.

earth (ûrth) n. 1.a. The land surface of the world. b. The softer, friable part of land; soil, especially productive soil

I cannot think of a single time where Christians were militant. I can, however, think of many occasions where the Roman church, aka CATHOLIC, has persecuted people, I just cannot think of any CHRISTIAN groups who were militant.

Quote# 16764

(Topic: Sharia Law punishment and death sentence under it.)

Skillganon: ... but ultimately punishment is carried out because it is commanded so.

Janissary: Yes, and need there be any other reason? Is not being commanded by God sufficient reason?

[By-Stander] - (Interrupts telling them that perhaps their interpretation could be wrong and that common sense could tell them that such harsh punishments/death sentense under Sharia Law aren't necessary.)

Janissary: Well, of course I'll examine scripture. But once it is clear what God commands, what reason can there (from a religious perspective) be not to obey?

[After telling several people that he hoped they get raped, and that they deserve to be raped and "bitch-slapped.]

If you knowingly call someone a theif who is not, you deserve to be stolen from. If you knowingly call someone a murder who is not, you deserve to be murdered. If you knowingly call someone a rapist who is not, you deserve to be raped.

It's called karma and what goes around comes around.

Quote# 16772

[Apparently, Jesus is in the fruit-juice business)

The wine which was made by Jesus was not the strongly alcoholic wine or liquor we see today. If it was fermented at all, it contained an extremely small amount of alcohol - only enough to serve to purify the drink. It's actually more like grape juice than what we would consider to be wine. The wine that is out today is designed for the purpose of making one drunk. It contains a lot more alcohol than the grape juice Jesus made.

Quote# 16773

Just like you cannot deny a person their fundamental right to LIFE.

[Patients who need transplants die every single day - why aren't you screaming about their "fundamental right to life" and demanding we start forcing organ donations?]

Those people were allowed to be born, your fundamental right to LIFE is your right to be born, something you do not understand. So how does it feel to go against evolution?
[...]
Your fundamental right to life is you right to be born, after that you can live your life, killing is still wrong, but that goes against your fundamental right not to be KILLED.

Quote# 16774

Most of today's science is a joke....science is run by a bunch of chance-loving atheists who have constructed an intellectual moat around themselves -- this moat disallows the free-flow of any information that contradicts the basic dogma they have constructed for their made-up, Sesame-Street-like fairytale world.

Quote# 16778

The Bible clearly states that God created life on the earth. It says that He created the heavens (stars, moon, etc) but never says He put life there. The conclusion - the only planet life exists on is earth.

Quote# 16781

I remember watching lions devour a zebra on a nature show, and thinking to myself -- so this is what nature has become -- a cruel, uncaring, brutal struggle where everyone is looking out for themselves. [...]

But some day Jesus is going to fix it. The lion will lay down beside the lamb and have molars in his mouth. This is what the bible tells me.

Quote# 16785

Also, there is evidence in Scripture (and elsewhere) that humans didn't always mature at such an early age. Even 150 years ago, girls reached puberty at an average age of 17, instead of the average age of 11 now. Therefore, the fact children reach adolescence earlier is a product of the Fall and of sin in the world, not Gods' will.

Quote# 16718

The rise of the Democrats in the US opinion polls before this week's congressional elections has boosted the Rapture Index a few points. Triumphant liberalism is one sign that we are living in the last days.

Raptureready is adamant that no true believer could even think of voting Democrat. "There is one thing certain we can state, based upon the integrity of Bible truth. Jesus would never endorse or be a member of any party whose platform supports abortion, gay rights, and a general hostility to Bible-believing Christians."

Quote# 16726

Pensacola evangelist and tax protester Kent Hovind winked at his wife and gave her a reassuring smile as he was led away to jail.

Jo Hovind clutched the necktie he had been wearing. She kept her eyes on her husband until he was out of sight.

A 12-person jury deliberated for 2½ hours on Thursday before finding the couple guilty of all counts in their tax-fraud case.

Kent Hovind, founder of Creation Science Evangelism and Dinosaur Adventure Land in Pensacola, was found guilty of 58 counts, including failure to pay $845,000 in employee-related taxes. He faces a maximum of 288 years in prison.

Jo Hovind was charged and convicted in 44 of the counts involving evading bank-reporting requirements. She faces up to 225 years in prison but was allowed to remain free pending the couple's sentencing on Jan. 9.

Quote# 16732

Me and my parents have decided that I will not date. We believe in courting. Dating leads to foolish things. By courting, I mean the young man participating in outings with my family and such. Very safe places! I have decided to fully give my heart to my dad. He will be the authorty over me until my wedding day. I (with God's help) hope never to even hold hands with my future husband until my wedding day. I wear a purity ring to remind me of that daily. One day, my purity ring will be molded into my future husbands wedding band as a sign that I am fully giving my heart to him. And that is my whole heart, not a broken heart that I have waisted on other guys.

Quote# 16733

[Pastor Mark Driscoll's explanation of why Ted Haggard used crystal meth and had sex with a gay prostitute: his wife was too fat to satisfy him sexually!]

Most pastors I know do not have satisfying, free, sexual conversations and liberties with their wives. At the risk of being even more widely despised than I currently am, I will lean over the plate and take one for the team on this. It is not uncommon to meet pastors' wives who really let themselves go; they sometimes feel that because their husband is a pastor, he is therefore trapped into fidelity, which gives them cause for laziness. A wife who lets herself go and is not sexually available to her husband in the ways that the Song of Songs is so frank about is not responsible for her husband's sin, but she may not be helping him either.

Quote# 16736

You mix Evolution and evolution, which are two seperate, albiet connected, things. The Theory of Evolution is that man evolved from lower primates blah blah blah. To follow the Scientific method, and therefore become science, you need to be able to replicate it, which has not been accomplished and not for a lack of trying. Evolution (lower case e, capital for grammatical reasons only) does occur, but it is not proof of Evolution. The better word would be adaptation.

[Apparently not, you appear to think AIDS is a gay man's disease. ]

It is a gay man's disease. The only way a regular person can catch it is if he/she sleeps with a homo.

Homosexuals have blood on their hands from all the misery they've caused from starting Aids. Back in the 80s the only people who had AIDS were homosexuals. do you deny this?

pro-creationism songs!

post them if you know some. this one was by a band from my area that broke up before i got to see them live, i wanted to ask them about it.

"the argument for creationism"

Apes don't need a higher power
We should be so wise
If only we could use these thumbs
For more than holding books of lies

I'd raise a glass to the death of science
I raise this glass to the downfall of reason

Score one for the creationists!
Singing their song of yes and amen
Your blind faith is almost inspiring
I said almost

...i play this song in my head whenever a silly evolutionist gets lippy.

[Yes actually. How many Christians do you know that put their wives outside the city when they're menstruating, or even follow the dietary laws in Leviticus?]

Are you married? I think that is pretty good advice to put your wife outside when she is "menstruating".

As far as the dietary laws. The Bible does not say anything different than science does. Do you think we should ignore the research and ignore their advise?

If you do not follow the dietary laws, you will suffer the consequences for not following those laws.

Quote# 16756

There are a lot of things you can learn from the modern, hollywood, romance style of dating:
You can learn, first hand, what it is like to live in disobedience to God's will
You can learn, first hand, what it is like to live with a sexually transmitted disease
You can learn, first hand, what it is like to stand at the wedding alter having a heart and/or body that is sexually impure
You can learn, first hand, what it is like to be disqualified from whatever ministry God may have for you.
You can learn, first hand, what it is like to be a parent before you are ready or married.
You can learn, first hand, what it is like to practice for divorce.
You can learn, first hand, what it is like to have your heart torn asunder because you joined your heart to someone who was not God's will for you.
Need I continue? God has a plan for marriage and Hollywood's style of dating is not a part of it.
