I liken the promise of life without end to taking out an insurance policy without reading the small print. How could anybody possibly know what life without end would be like? I wonder if life without end would become so monotonous that maybe 200 years into it you'd have regret, knowing that the...

Yes I do in some ways. I think it's probably relevant to a lot of people.

Interestingly I had a very strange dream last night... I was standing on a cliff edge looking out to sea, the sea wasn't water though it was fabric?? I'd probably eaten too much cheese before bedtime.

How has it regressed?

Do you think that Christianity has progressed from say 300 years ago?

For accuracy the gospels were written between 30- 70 years after Jesus' death.

It's hurtful when people not just believers criticize my children, it's hurtful when I'm viewed as someone who just wants to sin, nobody likes the feeling of being looked down on by others but it's especially hurtful when it's over a simple lack of belief.

I would agree if those events were proven fact... The problem I have is that it's not, all we have is scripture to support the claims. We know that people are sometimes liars, we know that people sometimes exaggerate, we know that people are sometimes mistaken. Add onto this the length of time...

If divine intervention was a recognisable thing, surely we wouldn't be having this conversation.

I think that I've said it before, maybe in this thread I think the planet is in a bad place due entirely to mankind. I don't see any divine intervention, so in a way we are being left to our own devices.

I don't believe in the concept of sin, and certainly not original sin. I now believe in evolution by natural selection as it makes far more sense to me than the Genesis account. To be clear here I'm not talking about abiogenesis, I'm merely talking about the origins of our species. So in short...

Being the father of one homosexual child and one transgender child, I wonder if Jesus would treat my children with love and welcome them into the fold? I've met a lot of Christians and get somewhat mixed messages. If following Jesus means turning my back on my children it definitely isn't an...

Would you like me to list some of the obstacles? I don't think that you would be able to clear them all, not for me personally.

Not at all, I have many reasons.

The passing of time changes many things even your religion. It's called progress.

I'll certainly check it out at some point, thank you for clarifying your position and I respect your position. Treating people with kindness goes a long way.

Well in that case don't bother reading the Bible as it was written by men you are contradicting yourself in one post.

Gender: Defined by the American Psychological Association as the socially constructed roles, behaviors, and attributes that societies consider appropriate for men and women.

Just to add. I know that the vast majority of Christians don't agree that homosexuality's natural and IS an abomination/ sinful and I've come across a lot of derogatory comments about the likes of my son both online and sometimes face to face. As for my other son who is transgender, can I just...

I think that you are getting gender confused with biological sex.
