Is there anything specific we might be able to help with? Not saying we can 'reveal' anything or have the 'answer' but perhaps we have gone through something simular and relate to how we came to our knowledge? What is it exactly that you are doubting?

Well if you truly loved her and "wanted to make her happy", you simply wouldn't lie to her. Just discuss your reasons for atheism and maybe she can help.

Right. That's a good law, and really, what practical purpose does an automatic gun have? I mean unless your up against a pack of wild bears or something lol

Well that happened hundreds of years ago and it's the same story for how many of today's countries started (they arrived to find a tribe, they went to war with the tribe and took the land. This is both Australia and the USA's exact history lol). People who are born in Australia/America/wherever...

It's pretty sad, isnt it? I mean tithing is great, but I really don't think God would want a Church leader (or any of us for that matter) living a "100 million dollar" lifestyle. If I was THAT rich I'd buy a nice house, large and comfortable so my family can enjoy it, and maybe indulge in a...

To show how horrible society would be if we had no limits and we let anyone use any weapon they wanted. I do. However it may not actually work in EVERY situation, depending on God's will and other variables I guess. We do have to physically defend ourselves too though.

You CAN condition yourself not to have those lustful thoughts. It is possible. In the same way I used to drink alot, but since becoming a Christian I put it out of my mind for sooo very long that the desire for it just snapped and now I don't see it or feel temptation for it in the same way at...

Yes, duck around it cos you have no response. The simple fact is that society needs to have a limit on what can be classed as normal "protection" becuase we can't have crazy people building bombs and having it allowed becuase they "have the right to protect themselves" While guns may be okay...

According to this logic, atomic bombs don't kill anyone either, so you'd say it's fine to have a bomb in your backyard for protection. With a nuke, you can be elderly or disabled and defend yourself against China. I feel Jesus would strongly disagree with that. He said forgive 77 times and...

Yes true. In all honesty, I would protect my love ones at pretty much all costs. However I do believe that killing is wrong for us to do in all circumstances. In an ideal situation, you can take someone out and remove loved ones from a bad situation without shooting the enemy. I think...

yes I cant wait to see that, it looks great. I wrote a feature on it for my site: The Lion of Judah movie 2011 | Bible Island

Did Jesus say it's okay to kill people in self defense? Is that what he meant by "If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also." Matthew 5:39 That must have been a translation error. Perhaps what he REALLY meant was "If someone strikes you on the right cheek, pull out...

I didn't quite read all of that but yes, having a relationship with God goes hand in hand with following the rules of the Bible. Without following them, when we sin, I think that puts us outside of our relationship with Him.. Jesus can't be within us when there is unrepentant sin in our lives I...

Some of the arguments here, such as the "how can you do good if you are not good" and "how can we EARN our salvation" are just missing the point here. Noone ever said that works buy salvation, or that we earn it. It's simple: We have to be a certain way to be eligable for the gift that...

No-one here thinks works can get you into heaven. Only Christ's sacrifice on the cross can get us there. But I believe to be eligible for that gift of eternal life, we DO have to live up to a few requirements. They are not works (like miracles or good deeds) they are things required for...
