Not at all. I think atheists can ask some really good questions. (which many Christians do NOT appreciate) https://www.christianityboard.com/threads/deconstruction-how-far-is-too-far.56703/ [

Here's an example of one. https://www.christianityboard.com/threads/blasphemy-against-the-holy-spirit-the-unforgivable-sin.66668/ [

Topic on the subject. https://www.christianityboard.com/threads/faith-vs-the-faith-which-one-was-once-delivered.64372/ [

I have brushed up against this topic on occasion. Time to hit it head-on. Christianity claims to have all the answers. In order to maintain that claim Apologetics were born. And to be clear, a reasonable amount of Apologetics aren't a problem. A biblical basis for our faith. But after I had...

Well said. It's a real test of faith to be honest about these tough issues. To me, faith means believing even when you don't have all the answers. https://www.christianityboard.com/threads/leaving-room-for-faith-why-we-dont-know-everything.55597/ [

Well said. [

No, not really. Maybe celebrate is the right word. (compared to recover) Sorry to be waffling on this. I didn't realize that you were asking about the purpose of the thread. ??? Though I have issues with my religious upbringing, I admit to great benefit in some aspects of it. Especially the...

You've made some good points. Thanks. The purpose of the thread was to illustrate how intolerant of others we tend to be. [

Very informative, thanks. What do you suppose Adam understood about the two trees? [

Yes. Not sure if "celebrating" is the right word. (I'm in recovery) It has definitely stuck with me. Things I still agree with and things that I don't. [

St. SteVen said: so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous Not what it says. Through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous. Not true. All will believe. Everyone who has knees to bow and a tongue to speak, in...

Who wrote these words? Romans 5:18-19 NIV Consequently, just as one trespass resulted in condemnation for all people, so also one righteous act resulted in justification and life for all people. 19 For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also...

Catholics are not harmless in this respect when considering their attitudes and actions against the Orthodox Churches and Protestants. [

Wouldn't that have led him to protect her from eating? --- PARODY --- Serpent: Did God really say... ? Eve: He said don't eat and don't touch. Adam: Oops, my bad, I said don't touch. Eve: What?! God didn't say that? !!! Adam: No, I added that because I know you like to touch things without...

Why the change in motivation? I wonder what would have happened if he refused to eat after his wife ate. [

That would be... 5. YOUR "Bible" says it is false. (other biblical opinions don't matter) [

Well... "switchblades" might be a bit unfair. - LOL But I get the point. (pun intended) [

Again, do you see any indication that Adam was aware of any of this? Your position seems to be that Adam was fully appraised and willfully (with full knowledge) chose "Works" over "Grace". What need is there of grace prior to a transgression? I don't think Adam even understood what physical...

Agree. But they do have a history. Especially when the scriptures were not available to the populace. [

Is that what Adam said when God confronted him? (nope) ... “The woman you put here with me—she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.” - Genesis 3:12 NIV Perhaps, but did Adam understand this? [
