People primarily become Christians through conversion. People primarily become Muslims through birth. If you have Muslim parents, you're pretty much locked into being Muslim. If you try to leave Islam, at best you'll be ostracized from your family, and at worst you'll be killed. If it weren't...

Who said that makes it correct? Why do we assume the early church knew it all? I don't believe they were any more enlightened than the rest of us and were still trying to figure out some things for themselves.

I hear that's why the U.S. is building pier off Gaza. The Obiden admin wants to flood the country with as many illegals and refugees as possible for the election. It's all a part of their plan to detablize America and stay in perpetual power. And wait until the offensive begins, we are really...

I think he will get the nominee, but they will do a switcheroo at the last moment possible.

There's a guy I follow on YouTube named "Trevorsinstinct". All his workouts consists of kettlebells and the mace, and he has a phenomenal physique. If I had the space in my home, I would go this route instead of going to the gym.

It's not a coincidence this is happening during a major election year. Antifa, BLM, Pro-Palestinian protesters, they're all the same players, funded by the same people.

I'm dubious of the motives of most rich people who use their money for philanthropy. It's still mostly about them and leaving behind a legacy for themselves.

What if the facts never arrive? Some things are unknowable. There's nothing that can be done about that. We just have to go with the best information available and be able to support our beliefs with sound reason. It's imperfect, but it's the only way we can make sense of the world. Without...

I would argue that it can't. Theism appears to be the default belief system of humanity. Every ancient civilization believed in God or gods. It wasn't until around 300 BC that we saw the beginnings of atheism from the Greek philosophers. Their debates about God's existence sounded remarkably...

Everyone believes in something. It's what that something is that matters.

We see through a glass darkly. We may read the same scripture, but how we interpret those scriptures is up for debate. I don't see that changing any time soon. I agree with Augstin 56: until we get to the other side and know absolute truth, there will be disagreements.

An AI "god" would be just another false god but devoid of compassion, sympathy, or a moral conscience. But the degree of control it could have over humanity would be unprecedented. I have no doubt it has a part to play in end-time events. Never underestimate people's stupidity. We have the...

If that were the case, prisons would be the safest places on the planet, but obviously, that isn't true. That's true. It wouldn't be hard to get a conviction in places like New York or D.C. that are deep blue.

Yes, I have heard something similiar and it's basically an attempt to discredit Chrisitanity. If I recall, there's no ancient text that supports their argument, it's all based on modern intereptations. Here's a video of a guy debunking a documentary called Zeitgeist which makes the same assertion:

I would say yes, as they still have a future role to play. The relationship between God and Israel was that of husband and unfaithful wife. In spite of that, God never completely abandoned her. The story of Hosea and Gomer parallels the relationship between God and Israel, and it promises a...

There was no conversion going on back then. God made it a point to make a distinction between His people and the surrounding pagan nations. An Isrelite living back then would never try to convert a gentile because Yahweh was for Israel alone. It was always the surrounding nations that were...

Well that sucks. I enjoyed reading his posts, and he was obviously very intelligent. Why was he banned?

They don't want to be held responsible for their own actions and accountable to a higher power. They want to be their own gods, deciding right from wrong.

Why am I here? Well, let's see: I'm a rufugee from another Christian forum that was closed down, and this has become my new home. I enjoy discussing events and topics with others from a Christian perspective. I like to share things I've learned over the years. I sometimes have a lot of free...

What makes the Proud Boys white supremacists besides how the media portrays them? Their leader was Enrique Tarrio who is of Afro-Cuban descent. It was actually founded by Gavin Mcinnes as a joke and nothing to do with race.
