    If you had your choice

    The problem, of course, is they are not true…..witness the 6,000 year timeframe that is unsupportable. Christians all have the same Bible and have no consensus on the Trinity question. By this insane insistence on a totally literal understanding of the Bible the Spirit is largely ignored….

    have you ever changed your religion?

    Unfortunately this almost by definition is a byproduct of religion. So many religions emphasize separation from others….especially fellow Christians……because they are closer and make good targets. Now you are in a position to look at others and wonder how you can relate to them…..instead of...

    Pastor Claims Married Women Should Lose Right to Vote

    Actually it is counterproductive for MAGA…….without any doubt fundamentalist women would have voted in big numbers for Trump….best to save your ammo on this……:)

    THE EVIDENCES FOR GOD

    Sorry in advance to cherry pick this but it made me laugh. Many years ago at Basic Training the deer would come out of the woods to graze in front of the firing line. When the announcer was made “the firing line is open” the deer would scamper back into the woods. On the call of duty”the...

    If you had your choice

    I assume you are talking about eisegesis ? I would waffle on that…..thinking of poetry for example rather than scripture…..

    How Many Churchgoers Do You Think Actually Believe?

    Free will is great and it is a gift…..but it can be a two edged sword…..either freeing us or entrapping us…..

    If you had your choice

    Thanks…..this is very apropos…we know it is crucial to repent….but it is the secret faults that make a liar out of us if we claim that we have repented……for this grace exists….

    If you had your choice

    Going back to this…….entering the kingdom of heaven is essentially being reinvented…..to be childlike is to be like a dry sponge….totally open to revelation…..carrying no baggage….no experience of judging others….no preconcepts I think it is irrelevant how much scripture and doctrine one...

    The terrifying fact of death.

    If you do not believe in the afterlife it is illogical to worry about your future. There would be no future…..no consciousness….no perception….none of the 5 senses….nothing to experience….no fond memories of your past…..nada….

    If you had your choice

    Well one could say that ‘to become like little children’ is to revert to something you were…..prior to any acquired belief in doctrine….

    If you had your choice

    If you had your choice who would you trust the most ? Jesus or Paul ? In 2 Timothy 3:16 Paul says that all scripture is useful for teaching etc. In John 5:39 Jesus says “You diligently study the Scriptures because you think that by them you possess eternal life….yet you refuse to come to me...

    THE EVIDENCES FOR GOD

    In relation to killing the Buddha…..the Bible says ‘no man has ever seen God’….and as a gift to Trinitarians….John 1:18….”No one has ever seen God, but God the One and Only, who is at the Father’s side, has made him known.”….’one and only’ tells me something…..

    THE EVIDENCES FOR GOD

    It is revelatory how easily fundamentalists are goaded into unChristlike behavior ……time to consider the Eastern wisdom of “if you see the Buddha kill him”…..
