Quote# 3213

We're not gonna shelter our daughter from evolution when we homeschool her. We'll present it to her as the load of bull that it is, but she'll certainly get exposed to it.

Quote# 3214

Finally, Homeschooling isn't just about getting a BETTER education, though that is often the outcome. It is also about being in better control of what indoctrination your children get.

Quote# 3215

Since the Bible is supported by the 'Ancient Documents Rule', the burden of proof to prove it is NOT factual falls on the accuser and NOT the believer.

Quote# 3216

I would trash any literature I received from them [Jehovah's Witnesses], confess the sin of allowing it into your house, repent and command all demons to leave. It is a doctrine of demons.

Quote# 3217

What if you were a kid [i][in Noah's day][/i]? Do you know what the world was like back then? 100% pure evil and corruption. The only good in existence was found in Noah and his family. Which means, like kids do - they follow their parents example - become murderers, haters, rapists, theives etc., grow up to the point of understanding sin - reject God's warning - receive just punishment and end up in hell. As oppose to judging their original sin, along with the rest of the world - and taking them to heaven - before they are held accountable for their sins.

Quote# 3218

It was because of atheism that I reached a logical conclusion that allowed me to lose my compassion for other people. I realize that not everyone who holds an atheistic belief will follow that belief to its logical end, and/or act upon that conclusion if it is eventually reached. The only way I can logically see me losing my compassion for people again is if I lose my faith.

Quote# 3222

Yes, sadly some people really do believe this stuff. John Travolta, Tom Cruise, and his ex what's-her-name (you know, the cute little australian actress) just to name a few. Really though, if you think about it, it's no weirder than the [Jehovah's Witness] watchtower garbage or mormon garbage or any other false religion.

Quote# 3223

Did you see the spirit that was attacking you? Once, long ago I saw an evil spirit attacking me, and looked nothing like the evil vampire crap you see in movies and tv. He was blue colored and wore a crown.

Muslims always lie to get their way, and then they go ahead doing exactly what they were doing before. Oh well, a lot of people are going to suffer because of this sham.

[After someone says that's a bigoted comment]No, it's the truth. Muslims hate Christians and Jews. They lie and kill. Truth hurts but it's the truth.

Like I said, we have had many threads on this subject. We know the facts and we have read the Quran. Get your facts straight or no one is going to take you seriously.

Quote# 3230

The fact the bible was translated in several languages spanning different areas of the world. When you translate them back to the original form, they are the same. NO WAY THAT COULD BE DONE WITHOUT DIVINE INTERVENTION.

Quote# 3231

Also, you have to take into consideration that demons can effect the thinking of so called men of science to deceive them. We already see so many areas that people are deceived in, because they do not accept the truth of the Bible. So if they are deceived and in error in a area we can observe them in, then how can they be trusted in areas that we are not as knowledgeable in?

Quote# 3232

Stealing is wrong and causes much hardship for the victim. Is it better to lose a hand and repent from this sin or to allow oneself to be drawn by such deeds to the eternal punishment of the Hellfire?

Quote# 3233

As for dinosaurs--they were around only a few thousand years ago. Let me explain: it was 6115 years ago, give or take about three to five years (I know this because Abraham from the Bible was born 2166 years ago, and all you have to do is add up the ages of ALL the people from Adam to Abraham, which are all listed in the Bible's book of Genesis).

Anyway, the dinosaurs died out slowly in the years following the flood--because they were the biggest animals among the others, and since the flood killed off most of the vegetation on the earth, the largest animals began to die off by lack of food. [But what about the tiny dinos?]

The Ceolocanth was thought to be a fish that was part-dinosaur and was extinct for millions of years, but then they discovered that it's still alive in the Indian Ocean.

The thumb is of remarkable design that allows us to pick things up easily, (it would have been much harder to type this comment if I had not thumbs). If we evolved by chance, how would 'evolution' know that we would be in need of a thumb millions of years down the road?

Quote# 3237

It seems to me that everything around us--plants, brains, eyes, ears, taste buds, cats, dogs, books, electricity, sunlight, and even the belief in God--is all evidence that there must be a God. After all, a nationwide pole shows that 7% of people in the US are actual atheists, and 47% believe the earth to be created within the last 10 thousand years.

Quote# 3238

I must take a moment to point out that you do not commit the error of circular reasoning when you use the Bible to prove the Bible. The reason is very simple. You see, the Bible is not one book! It is a collection of 66 books written by more than 40 authors over a period of 1,600 years. Therefore, if you quote Jeremiah or Isaiah to substantiate Daniel, or if you quote Daniel to verify Revelation, you are not involved in circular reasoning. Instead, you are quoting altogether independent sources who happen to be bound together between the covers of the same book.
