Blue, all you ever do is rant and rave. You can never directly address an issue, let alone provide evidence.
Please learn how to use the quote function. It isn't very hard. You need to add “[/quote]†at the end of your quotes.
O.K.,cubed if you believe that the news on t.v. is all lies then so be it.
I certainly didn’t make any such claim. You are the one claiming that all news sources are liberal, biased, and contain lies. I don’t believe everything I hear on TV is true, but neither do I believe everything I hear is a lie.
We can all see what is happening today.
My sources are good sources,and those websites are trusted websites.
Your sources aren’t quality. Some of them are home-made websites obviously maintained by a single individual. Others are more professionally done, but obviously biased. They almost never address the topic at hand when you post them. Link to a specific article on one of your pages if it is a relevant one. Linking to a homepage of a site that contains dozens of articles doesn’t help anyone, even if those articles are true. None of us have the time or desire to read through all the sites you link to in order to see if they might be relevant.
You are sitting on both sides of the fence and you cannot do that with God,so you need to make up your mind,and soon!
When typing English, a comma is always to have a space after it. You often don’t include the space, so your sentences run together and are hard to read. You also use commas where they are not needed, but that is harder to catch. Please, start putting spaces after your commas.
You haven't shown one spec of actual are presumed evidence,not even once since I have known you.
I haven’t presented one shred of evidence to you, because you haven’t engaged in a single valid argument yet. Look at my posts in political or current events. When I read a news story, I am skeptical of the facts presented and take steps to verify them on my own. I have many posts that lay out evidence, with sources, numbers , and analysis, as to why I think a particular article is false or misleading.
You know I don't believe liberals who want more rights to do evil against God,and those who are not satisfied that they have Freedom here in America.
This isn’t a sentence, and I have no idea what you are trying to say.
If the liberals have it their way,America won't be free for long!
Liberals want nothing but more freedom. True freedom includes the freedom to sin. God has given us the freedom to sin. True, we will be personally accountable at judgment for the sins we commit, but while we are on this Earth, God lets us act as we will.
show your concrete evidence before saying others have no evidence.
You don't show any proof at all for your statements. You accuse,but do not show proof!
Here is some evidence that your idea that the world is becoming more religious and soon there will be no atheists is false.
Let’s go back to Quath’s Source. He used data from the Barna Research Group. You compared it to the National Enquirer and the Globe. Let’s see what the Barna Research Group actually is. On the
Company Profile page we can see that “BRG has been providing information and analysis regarding cultural trends and the Christian Church since 1984.†And “Would you like to serve the body of Christ by working with the premiere marketing research company in America that is dedicated to assisting God’s people to do the work of the kingdom?†Then, we can see that
George Bama Is a pastor with a Doctorate from Dallas Baptist University who has written over 30 books and taught extensively at Christian seminars and churchs.
So, basically Quath provided you a Christian source, and without knowing anything about it, you claimed that it was all lies. And why did you do this? Simply because it didn’t agree with your beliefs.
Here’s another article from the same source.
http://www.barna.org/FlexPage.aspx?Page ... dateID=160
In it, you can see that atheists and agnostics have grown from 9% of the US population in 1995 to 12% of the US population in 2004. This is contrasted with evangelical Christians, who were at 6% in 1995 and at 7% in 2004. For the sake of the survey, evangelical Christians were defined as “Evangelical Christians are a subset of the born again Christian population, meaning that they say they have made a personal commitment to Christ that is important in their life today and believe they will experience eternal salvation because they have confessed their sins and accepted Christ as their savior. (The term “evangelical†is not used in Barna surveys; people do not self-identify as “evangelical.â€Â) In addition to meeting the born again criteria, evangelicals also meet seven other conditions. Those include saying their faith is very important in their life today; contending that they have a personal responsibility to share their religious beliefs about Christ with non-Christians; stating that Satan exists; maintaining that eternal salvation is possible only through grace, not works; asserting that Jesus Christ lived a sinless life on earth; saying that the Bible is totally accurate in all it teaches; and describing God as the all-knowing, all-powerful, perfect deity who created the universe and still rules it today. In the survey, being categorized as “evangelical†was not dependent upon any church or denominational affiliation or involvementâ€Â
Let’s start here for now. You have two different figures from Barna Research Group indicating that atheism and unbelief is growing quickly in this country. Please, either provide an alternative set of statistics that show a different story, or give us solid evidence why we should believe that this well-educated pastor is purposely issuing deceptive statistics.
