    Atheist in a Christian Den.

    You know, I'm trying to be nice to you despite our differences of opinion.

    Jesus's appearance?

    Most humans have genes inherited from neanderthals. Probably all humans. The last estimate I heard was 10-20%, but that could be high. On a more general note, I do hope that there's no implication of Christ's race being of anything more than trivial interest.

    Jesus's appearance?

    1 Samuel 16:12 says that His ancestor, David, was a redhead. Esau was too, indicating that Issac had the genes. As redheads are genetically predisposed to fair skin, I'd go with that.

    Persnickety Characters

    Some people aren't happy unless they're complaining/worrying/criticizing. How to deal with it? In one ear, out the other.

    I'd say post pictures once you get it, but that's stalkerish. So a written description of how cool it is will suffice :P

    Atheist in a Christian Den.

    You are what you are, friend. I agree that insincere prayer will not help. You are the only one who knows in your heart if you're sincerely praying to God and open to Him; I'm not in a position to make any assumptions either way. I am an atheist myself, but I have a personal relationship with...

    Bestiality?

    So, I know bestiality is wrong according to the Bible (and rightfully so), but I'm curious about marriage between humans and half-humans... specifically centaurs, although mermaids and harpys would also qualify (although I've never met any of those). So because a centaur is half human and...

    Tired Of Being Alone. Need Guidance Desperately..

    You asked for honest advice, so I'll provide it. For one thing, it almost sounds like you were relying too heavily on the friendship of these two individuals. It's very possible to smother a friendship and calling someone every day or planning every weekend together can do that. Although some...

    why....?

    Jesus was not Elijah. Deal with it.

    How many people have you sent to Hell?

    I realize that. Sorry for wanting to nevertheless do whatever I can to at least get people to examine God in a positive light. But don't worry, I'll be one less soul in heaven someday, burning with all those people who happily are not taking up too much space on your personal cloud.

    How many people have you sent to Hell?

    No, seriously, I love this. I love the raw honesty here, that you're cutting to the chase of what Christianity is all about for people. What's in it for them, and forget about anyone else. I joined this board because of the second half of its missions statement: ChristianForums.net desires to...

    The Elder Was Way Off Base

    The internet is a tool. Nothing more and nothing less. How it is used depends entirely on the heart and intention of its users.

    Do You Want to Be a Prophet?

    My bishops are both idiots. They only walk diagonally and refuse to ever set foot on the same color ground.

    why....?

    As did others, except in the case of Jesus, this was done through the power of God. Everyone is immortal; we're promised an eternity in Heaven (or the other place). Elijah wasn't immortal in any other way than you or I. <o:p</o Mountains were often Holy places; it's not surprising that...

    How many people have you sent to Hell?

    So your argument is that you can treat potential believers like garbage simply to advance your own desires, and there's no harm done because God will just send other people to undo your damage? I think that's both spiritually immature as well as cruel. Also, your quotes about the gates of Hell...

    How many people have you sent to Hell?

    I tend to agree, but would prefer to play it safe when dealing with other people's eternity. The problem with your argument here is that God doesn't desire ANYone to not believe; yet there are so many who do. This leads us to two possibilities: 1. These people's hearts are hardened; no effort...

    What Are The Implications

    Well, we could hide in our houses with a shotgun aimed at the door, cowering in terror at the prospect of some psychopath with four arms and a chainsaw breaking down the door... so yeah, maybe we CAN be too careful.

    What Are The Implications

    I'd tend to agree with the caution you have advised. The internet is an absolutely amazing tool for meeting people, and for keeping in touch with people you already know. However, there needs to be a generous helping of human contact at some point early in the relationship. Until that time, the...

    How many people have you sent to Hell?

    Moderators, please don't delete or ban me until you read the whole post. It's not as overly dramatic as the title might suggest, actually. I just wonder if Believers understand the effect that extra-Biblical judgements and attitudes can have on non-Believers who might be interested in hearing...

    piercings

    No, I got piercings because it was something I wanted to do. In case you haven't yet noticed, I really don't care what other people think of me. You seem to be very good at judging others for trivial things that you find "evil", Joe. I would suggest that you have things in your own life that...
