nobody even knows what a "species" or a "kind" is so your whole post is pointless.

Quote# 37401

Using the logic that a person is accepted by God because they are in a "loving homosexual relationship" is rediculous. The Bible does not speak against a "loviing homosexual relationship" because that kind of relationship does not exist. Love is of God and those who love are of God. A homosexual may be a nice person, a great guy and be religious, but if he continues to defy God's mandate of living a life of purity and does not attempt to line his life up with the demands of God's word, then one is led to the conclusion that the homosexual man is lost and does not know God. (This can be said of a bank robber, a child molester, a drunk and any other person who is not presenting their bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God.)

Please.. they go to school where prayers aren't allowed and are taught they come from apes. This could explain their bad behavior, not to mention teen pregnancies, drugs,gangs and all other stuff which could lead them to atheism. The whole school system is based on atheism so why shouldn' they know it exist since they already live it. He makes sounds like they have a choice to believe in God or not but are they given a choice though when your school system and culture is so anti god to became with.

I find it hard to believe that people won't realize it was a rapture that happens. Come on, your telling me people are so stupid that they see all Christians and children disappear without a sound, pregnant women are left with no baby in their womb, babies in cribs disappear, people who know that I'm a Christian and all the sudden I am just gone, leaving behind my necklace and underwear, they won't know what happened?

Quote# 37377

There is NO SUCH THING as an atheist. If you make an absolute statement that there is NO God, then you make the affirmation that you know all things and that you can actually prove this. This is like somebody making a statement that there is no gold in China. You would have to be everywhere at one time and know what is under every rock and in every area of the land, in every man’s home, inside of each person mouth etc. It would not be proveable! [sic] Don’t try to argue that you say there is no God because you cannot prove there is! You cannot make an absolute statement and try to rationalize it by using the negative argument. It does not hold up. At least admit that YOU DON’T KNOW and take your first step toward agnosticism. Only then will you become more rational and realize that having faith is something we all exhibit whether it be in God or anything else.

Our AtheistAgnostic friends; can neither create an atom of the Universe nor words of any modern language

If you enjoy natural beauty; if you enjoy reading Science; both manifestations of GodAllah's Work;then you should enjoy Quran also which is His Word. If you don't enjoy; then the fault lies with you naturally. All three are perfectly attuned; only you are not.

Science is not created or invented by the AtheistsAgnostics; if there were not a single individual of AtheistsAgnostics in the world, even then the scientific knowledge would remain intact, in my opinion.

Kindly tell me; have you created a single atom in this world? Also kindly tell me; have you created say a score of words of any language which are in vogue in the public? Leave the Universe or a RevealedWord; you can create neither an atom nor words of any modern language? These are already existing naturally created by our GodAllah as did he wish.

I don't deny that I have to learn many things from you; that is one reason of my joining these forums. I appreciate that you people are intelligent. I love you all as a segment of reasonable humans.

Thanks

I like that metaphor coadie.
When they're trying to get teens into drugs or other dodgy things they make out it's harmless and that everyone does it.
Same with evo theory "it's just a theory", they say, whilst spending an immense amount of time using this "theory" to create apostates.

demons are an electric phenomenon trapped in the magnetic structure around the Earth...this is the common grave, where all have been retained in readiness for the ressurection...all that is, except those who followed the accurate teaching of Jesus Christ. They experienced rebirth via the mechanics exposed by Jesus and have been passed along the generations to the present day.

This is a universal law and will not be countermanded. Those who dabble with the common grave are frowned upon by the teaching of Jesus Christ.

Quote# 37379

I have found out that women, and esp. teenage girls, are very insecure about their bodies—even when flaunting their bodies. Many of them flaunt themselves because they are seeking that approval, even if it is only a sexual approval. Every time they can get a man’s attention with their body then they feel that much better of their own body. I think it is horrible that women do this to themselves and make us men their unwilling victim. But you can use this to your advantage. Pay little attention to her, or better yet, make any sort of attention you give this granddaughter negative, scowl at her, or look at her like she is a piece of filth—if you can undermine her feelings of security in her body—there would be a good chance she will cover up next time she sees you or better yet, just avoid you at all cost.

Quote# 37373

my wife's wisdom teeth
...or lack of them.


My wife stands at 5'1 and, like most small/short people, has small features. Luckily for her she has no wisdom teeth...(probably because her head is small and has no room for them.) When she was 12, her dentist took xrays and informed her that she'd never have problems with wisdom teeth because she didn't have any to break through.

This is interesting to me, because both of her parents had their wisdom teeth taken out years ago.

Now if you're to listen and believe in ToE, you would believe that certain organisms just happen to be born with certain traits, and, if the said traits were beneficial (aka helped them breed more successfully) this is how the population evolves. And the thing is, "fit" parents are supposed to be passing on their "fit" traits to their offspring. If inheritance was not true and parents did not necessarily pass down specific traits according to whatever lucky genes they happened to possess, then ToE is thrown for a huge loop, as the offsprings' traits would be more of a biological crapshoot as opposed to a representation of their parents.

But my wife's parents both have wisdom teeth. So how and why did she end up with no wisdom teeth?

Also, everyone's heard the imaginary scenario that evos dreamed up about cheetahs, whereby faster cheetahs are more likely to breed, thereby supposedly having faster offspring...(which is how cheetahs came to be fast)..... But how does ToE -- or the laws of genetics -- stand if both parents have a physical trait, (such as speed or wisdom teeth), yet their offspring ends up not having it???

[part of a much longer rant]

Now this is curious.....why would all species of frogs lay eggs, except one? Taken from "The Great Evolution Mystery" by Gordon Rattray Taylor

Then there is the puzzling frog discovered in the mountain meadows of New Guinea, which Professor Etienne Wolff described in 1971 under the rubric "The Big Problems posed by a little Frong." Unlike all other frogs, which lay eggs, Nectophrymoides occidentalis brings forth its youth alive. That implies a womb, a placenta, a yolk sac and other modifications, for which it must possess the genes. (SS: or not) Are they present in other frogs unactivated? If so, why have they been activated in this one species? On the evolutionary scale it has jumped a few million years. Similarly, there is just one viviparous earwig. Or again, only one shark in the genus Mustelus has a placenta, although they all live in an identical environment, namely coastal waters.

Speaking of frogs, if you go here: http://www.answersingenesis.org/crea...15/i2/frog.asp you'll learn of actually another frog who gives birth to live young -- but these frogs give birth through their mouths. Go figure.

And evidently there are other organisms who just simply don't fit in with their peers. This, it would seem to me, to be difficult for ToE to explain...

While at work I was coming around the corner and overheard two supervisors talking about the number of people who called in sick today. Then one remarked that so many people called in it made her think what the place would look like after the rapture. THEN she laughed and jokingly said, "us poor sinners would be left behind..oh well!!"

I could not believe it. I just looked at them and shook my head and as I was walking away I began to pray. "Lord, I can't believe these people who make fun of your return and know the consequences. Please help them to see the light and to turn from mocking you to worshipping you.


Have you noticed that people KNOW that we are in the end times and make light of it anyway???

I absolutely don't think the memories of those left behind will be wiped. A great delusion wouldn't be needed if that was the case.

An earthquake at the time of the rapture might serve as a delusion as the loss of millions could (falsely of course) be attributed to a natural event.

However, whatever the delusion, those left behind will experience, terror, horror, shock, despair, sorrow, anger, hatred and more, and that will just be the beginning. I mean, imagine if the rapture occurs during rush hour in North America?
• Cars, transports and buses, without drivers
• Airplanes, helicopters without pilots
• Trains, including subway, without engineers
• People literally vanishing from: work, from malls, from hospitals, out of nursing homes
• Entire daycares suddenly empty, school children disappearing in class or on their way to school
• Military personnel, policemen, firemen, medics, doctors, nurses – all gone – poof

No, there will be no memory loss. It will be pandemonium, and it will in all likelihood be the day the world stood still.

On 24 August 2005, Mr Eriksen wrote: “I’ve never understood why so many men have allowed themselves to be brainwashed by the feminazi myth machine into believing that rape is such a serious crime … Rape is simply sex. Women enjoy sex, so rape cannot be such a terrible physical ordeal.

“To suggest that rape, when conducted without violence, is a serious crime is like suggesting that forcefeeding a woman chocolate cake is a heinous offence. A woman would be more inconvenienced by having her handbag snatched.

“The demonisation of rape is all part of the feminazi desire to obtain power and mastery over men. Men who go along with the rape myth are either morons or traitors.”

Monique Davis' African ancestors were not Christians; they had a different religion. They did not know that Jesus was the Lord. Now those ancestors spend each day in Hell, suffering unimaginable torture.
Fortunately for Monique, white people kidnapped some of her ancestors and brought them as slaves to America, where they were forcibly converted to Christianity; and this faith was passed on to her. If slave traders had not stolen her ancestors, Ms. Davis would be living in Africa now, worshipping false Gods, her eventual death resulting in her reunion with her ancestors -- in Hell.
Doesn't she owe the slave traders who kidnapped her ancestors a debt of gratitude for bringing salvation to her family? Shouldn't she express this gratitude publicly?
