    If atheists get accused of taking verses out of context, how do we know fundamentalists making those accusations aren’t doing the same as well?

    Well then, consider atoms interchangeable with energy. I'm sure your advanced scientific mind can grasp there interchangeability.

    The topic is about the book in question and the proper way to understand the words contained.

    If atheists get accused of taking verses out of context, how do we know fundamentalists making those accusations aren’t doing the same as well?

    That's not much of a compromise. Either YHWH is the Creator or he is not. Fortunately, to answer this question, we need not rely on on GE 1 to understand the proper context. Rather explicit is: Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. John 1:3 In...

    Chelsea Clinton advocating book for kids that has porn in it.

    I'd be shocked if she opposed books to kids with porn in it.

    Does John 5:24-29 contradict the belief that one must believe in Jesus to avoid eternal death?

    Regarding the apparent contradiction, I rely more on Roman2 than John 5:29. The way I reconcile these verses is SHALL v SHOULD. In my career, we are required to have a QMS (Quality Management System) that is certified to comply with an industry ordained governing body. The requirements are...

    Is Reincarnation baloney?

    Did Moses make a copy? In the Bible Study I just completed, we learned the Book of Moses was passed on orallt for about 5 centuries before being put in written form. And you think making a copy of the vision is why Moses was never permitted entry into the promised land? I've been out of this...

    Christianity requires fear, guilt, and conformity

    Since babies are being killed by the millions and our society is mostly OK with it, it is not a game to play.

    The Morality of Lying

    I'm not sure it even has to be self-interest. Is revenge self-interest? Is protecting yourself from embarassment and humiliation malicious?

    Christianity requires fear, guilt, and conformity

    I've had it with your anti-science, dehumanizing characterization of human beings.

    Do some come here to pontificate their Christian theology...

    It is a great verse! Trouble is, people are too sure of themselves and lack the humility to put anything into the category of "doubtful things." There are those who seem to think every point of doctrine is an existential threat. Love God. Love Others. Get over yourself and your idol, your...

    Do some come here to pontificate their Christian theology...

    Not all Christians are Doctor's of the Church. In fact most aren't. Someone on here said if you don't read the Bible, you are not even a Christian. False. Most Christians do not read the Bible. My grandmothers were devout Catholics and I've referenced them here on these boards many times. But...

    Homosexuals are twice as likely to get cancer

    The kid cannot even admit his world view of Cultural Marxism even exists. Even as he demonstrates it! This thread is about the evil of homosexuality. Yet, he persists like the CM dog that he is, biting at the race baiting in post after post. As you said, we seek to elevate him beyond his...

    Christianity requires fear, guilt, and conformity

    No. You are struggling not to twist what we are talking about by taking the converse. "All men die." is true but its converse is NOT true. "All humans who die are men." You are fundamentally denying we are dealing with a 100% living human being. The fact that it has a unique human DNA proves...

    Christianity requires fear, guilt, and conformity

    We are not talking about a seed but a fertilized egg, a baby.

    Christianity requires fear, guilt, and conformity

    That is where you are 100% wrong. Science and the medical industry are with me. Used to be that "viability" was the line baby killers wanted to hold. Science and the medical industry are constantly pushing that line earlier and earlier to the point of making the abortion argument based on...

    Christianity requires fear, guilt, and conformity

    This is false analogy because wheat makes up bread in part. A baby is fully human - just in an early stage of development.

    Christianity requires fear, guilt, and conformity

    For those born again, yes. In the context of our conversation, you seem to be truly struggling with the notion that a young baby in its earliest stages of development is: fully human - and not some other species a fully alive human - life does not begin with the acquisition of a brain but upon...

    "My doctrinal opinion is true; you're doctrinal opinion is false." - Got it?

    Trouble is, "sound doctrine" - beyond the basics - is likely to scratch our itchy ears. "Sound doctrine" to Atheists is there is no God and no one in their right mind could possibly believe in an invisible man in the sky. On these very boards, I've read many times those that proclaim one...

    "My doctrinal opinion is true; you're doctrinal opinion is false." - Got it?

    I have found this to be profoundly true. :)

    Christianity requires fear, guilt, and conformity

    In China, Your birthday is when you were conceived. Your birthday does not mark transitioning from one species to another. It does not mark the day you become human. That day was conception.
