(waynemlj;35794) The argument doesn't "empirically" prove the existence of God. It logically proves the eternal existence of a Being who is transcendent -- of a much higher order than we are, infinitely higher -- because this Being is SELF-EXISTENT. He does not begin or end, is above and outside...

Good grief, we're going to just take the word of some random guy on YouTube now?I could go and make up the same story about, say, John McCain right now and post it on YouTube if I so desired, in about five minutes. But you wouldn't believe me, of course, just like you shouldn't believe this guy...

(Denver;35743) If a white male uses the phrase "white empowerment" he is labeled a Nazi. Similarly, if a black male - or church in this case - uses this phrase - they're "fighting against the system that is so harsh." This is completely irrelevant, because I don't see the phrase "black...

(For Life;35672) I saw racism I didn't see this at all. I saw an acknowledgment of the truth of racial and social inequity. And social inequity was a very important issue for early Christians.(For Life) perceived persecution This is strange, because early Christians definitely saw themselves as...

The most common usage of the Law (that I see in the New Testament anyways) refers to the Mosaic law of the Old Testament.

(bytheway;35543) Lunar: why is that? To think in those terms shows depravity.To use an example that most probably will never happen is not the way to gain clarity. The world's problems are not solved by human means. If someone solved this enigma wraped up in a riddle and did what you may think...

(JonJT;35487) Love and faith in God are based upon feelings derived from trust and ideas not proven through empirical evidence or theory that is acceptable in common scientific practice. You hear the word or God, you feel the love of God inside you. Such things cannot be proven my machines or...

(bytheway;35461) The question itself is immoral! Why is that? There are many situations in life in which you have to choose between two evils. I think it's helpful to think about them through examples like this, to give clarity to complicated decisions that come up in life.(DrBubbaLove) I think...

That's terrible. I'm very sorry. I will be praying for him.

(DrBubbaLove;35413) why couldn't i kill the baby as quickly and painlessly as possible? You could, I suppose, kill it by snapping its neck or something and then rip it open to get the bomb, but the real question is whether his or her death will be on your hands.

(Wakka;35410) My answer (as well as question) is what would YOU do? I'm inclined to say that unfortunately I need to kill the baby. It is going to die either way so I would want to save as many lives as I could.But I've heard this question posed before and some people had some interesting...

Suppose you've just found out that a revolutionary, miniature nuclear bomb about the size of a penny is about to go off in the middle of a crowded city. Your mission is to disarm the bomb. However, when you get to the bomb, you find that it has been planted inside a baby. It would be possible...

(JonJT;35364) I usually refrain from philosophical discussions concerning the proof or disproof of God. Belief in God is a faith akin to love, both of which are alogical constructs. Trying to use logic and/or empirical evidence to refute or prove the existence of God is missing the point of...

(For Life;35227) That was just a warning sign. After going to his website now I know for sure. Care to elaborate?

(For Life;34724) "Atheism : The Moral Minority" is what he flashes on the screen for a millisecond. I had to rewind 8x to read it. I don't exactly know what he is trying to do here but when he resorts to subliminal messages I don't quite trust it. I don't understand Atheism. I understand...

(For Life;34914) I said I thought it was funny that people assume he is a Christian when his name is Arabic. You'd think he would spend more time telling people he is Christian and not Muslim, and maybe even stand for some Christian values I don't. I think that's a completely silly reason to...

(thesuperjag;34877) It is just that...Isaiah 5:20 - Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!II Corinthians 6:14 - Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what...

(Faithful;34856) Does the atheist actually report and make a record of every act of adultery? Does the Christian?(Faithful) the world does not always make everything known publicly and records and surverys are not really a reliable source as they are limited to the number of people whose do not...

(thesuperjag;34834) I'll trust the Byzantine Texts over the Alexandrian Texts anyday because the Byzantine Texts is received by EVERYONE. The Alexandrian Texts loves to be kept a "secret." I have no idea what you mean.

(thesuperjag;34829) Tell me then, if modern versions is most accurate, why did they remove bible verses of what Christ said, that which is important... The question you should be asking is not whether they were removed from the KJV, but whether they were removed from the Greek/Hebrew. Like I...
