I know this is going to sound crazy, but I just need someone to answer this. I know that it's good to pray to God for answers, since He knows everything and I would pray repeatedly for guidance. But then one day I thought, "If He hears my thoughts and prayers, why do I have to keep repeating...

But if what's in the Bible are forgeries, or if the original use of the Bible has been lost, or if there are other parts of the Bible that were actually important but got left our or were lost, aren't we missing important aspects of being a Christian? I don't see how the phrase, "it is written"...

I was asking if it was vague because I know I don't always explain things fully, and I didn't want people to be confused by what I said. I don't see how the phrase, "it is written" means anything. I can write a random story and say, "It is written", so if you could explain how that phrase has...

I don't really see it that way. If the Bible wasn't meant to be taken literally in the first place, then aren't I just following what the original writers wanted in the first place? I wish I could remember who said this, it might have been on this site or another, but that the people who read...

I remember reading how people who focus more on the OT see God as more of a vengeful or angry God, and those who focus more on the NT see God as more forgiving and loving. I'm not saying that this is true, but I've heard about it. Although I've been pretty active in my Sunday School when I was...

He was responding to the fact that you don't quite understand what a theory is. He was giving you the definition, and a quote for fun.

In some ways I do, in others I don't agree. Evolution isn't a faith, people have observed and tested evolution and have found the results consistent enough to be taught in a classroom. Creationism cannot be tested in any way, so it should not be in classrooms (unless it's a religion class) at...

But we can observe what it has done. I should have included that as well. Sorry, a little distracted today, it has been pretty great :) But, people have been able to observe evolution. It's really cool! Here's an article about how fast bacteria can evolve. This is one thing that I love about...

So we can all agree that the Big Bang Theory is an awesome show?

I do. I find chemical and biological evolution really interesting. I remember in my intro to biology class being dissapointed that we didn't get to learn more about it. It's on my list to research further. Oh, and I think that part of what you're forgetting to mention with your statement is the...

But wouldn't they still be together "from that time"? Regardless of the actual time frame, if they coexisted they would be found together wouldn't they?

[ quote name="Harry3142" post="218859" timestamp="1391201354"] Idolatry does not need to have a statue which certain people claim to be the representation of a deity. Any belief which replaces trusting in God with trusting in it can be seen as an idol. So science can be seen as an idol in the...
