Let's say that you are with a team digging for dinosaur bones in Alaska. You come across some fossilized remains of a duck-billed dinosaur laying in a certain rock strata. An evolutionist on the team says, "Ah! This dinosaur is from the beginning of the Triassic period! That means this dinosaur is about 858 million years old!"

"How do you know?" you ask.

"Oh that's easy, you can tell from the rock layers. You date the fossil by the surrounding strata."

You turn to a creationist who is also part of the team and ask him for a second opinion.

"I'd say this dinosaur is less than 4,500 old and was probably buried during or shortly after the flood of Noah's day."

You scratch your head. "How can your assessment be so contrary to your evolutionary colleague?"

"Well, he is using General Revelation, and interpreting it through his worldview, which excludes Special Revelation, but I am using a mix of both observable facts and the recorded history of Someone who was around in the beginning. Namely...God."

I agree that it should be death penalty offense to commune with the devil and practice witchcraft, provided that the "beyond a reasonable doubt" standard is met. And the Bible mandates additional evidentially standards for the death penalty. I have a problem with the Salem Witch Trials and similar rare events n history because they violated due process with their investigations and trials, and executed innocent people.

It especially saddens me how many Christians think that Harry Potter, Halloween, etc are just "fun and games." They say things like "well, we don't look at it that way, we just do it for fun...we aren't thinking about Satan when we do it, so it's OK. We think that you can participate in these things in ways that still honor God. You are just being legalistic by trying to tell us differently. There's no way that God is upset by this..." etc, etc, etc.

Piercing your ears or other body parts could bring on sickness, diseases, and other problems (by the demons). Bell's Palsy and sexual problems are two known problems, as reported from other Deliverance ministries and this email -

"Regarding your article on pierced earrings, I am living proof that this opens you up to bells palsy. I just recovered from bells palsy. I got BP because of wearing pierced earrings. Needless to say, I destroyed all of my pierced earrings. Please continue to warn others."

This also pertains to tattoos, needles, knives, razor blades, and anything that pierces the skin.

According to Bible History, the only people who had pierced ears/nose were sorcerers, prostitutes, and slaves. Because of this origin, you should not pierce your skin.

Of course they're liberal. They hate America. They say "God Hates America". Who cares if they also say that God hates fags? Who cares if they're also doing God's work by picketing fag churches? Hatred of America is liberal, period. The admins were right to lock the page.

About the 33rd comment down by the blogs author: (Actually, her entire blog is a garden of picking for fundie talk).


As homosexuality and lesibianism becomes more and more accepted by our sick post modernist society, more children will be fooled into thinking that they are gay. No one is born that way - God does not make mistakes. However, many wonderful and beautiful people have been duped into thinking they are gay. They're not gay - no one is gay. They are simply misled and confused. God can free homosexual captives free from their sin, just as He can free alchoholics from their sin.

Our primary focus is current prophecy, not attacking the true Christian fundamentals in apologetics.

This is horrible... My wife and I have been discussing moving out of state more and more these days. I think we need to A) either move out of state or B) do something about this! How about we all mail letters to congress/flood them with phone calls/ and picket etc.? We can publicly fight for Gods law, even though we know we'll be ridiculed for it!

Noah (according to the Bible) was around 900 years old. I bet he was pretty smart. Heck i bet he was smart enough to design a "moon hole" Whats a "moon pool" you ask? A moon pool is a large hole in the middle of the ship it relives stress on large wooden vessels, especially when they crest large waves. Also it would circulate air, think about it, what did Noah have in the basement eh?

Noah also had drogue stones to act as stabilizers to keep the boat from capsizing.

Throughout history, "God's people" have turned their backs on God. They paid with their freedom and lives every time. Rameses, Darius, Cyrus, Nebuchadnezzar and so on. Those rulers brutalized the Jews worse than the Nazis ever did. I am of the opinion that the Holocaust was a result of, once again, "God's chosen people" ignoring His will and wishes and doing their own thing.

[Referring to the California Supreme Court ruling on same-sex marriage]

I'm not the loser in this, the kids raised by homos are going to be the real losers. Just like children raised in a abusive household at times tend to grow and repeat the same behavior we don't know what children raised in gay environments will be like. No matter how you paint it, homosexuality is deviant, unlawful and despicable. It is not normal and the majority of Americans are only tolerant of this lifestyle because someone in their family is this way. I have two cousins that are gay and my wife's uncle is gay. They're everywhere. The real danger is when we amend the constitution to amend certain behaviors. That is the real danger.The thing that makes me the most angry is that a couple of judges can overturn the vote of the people (and it happens a lot in California). That should scare all of you, no matter which side of the debate you are on.

Faith is the sure belief in something that is proven.

Like the wind. You cant see it but you have constant proof that it is there and you know what it can do.

Whereas Atheists are like those who try to come up with a theory as to why things get blown over instead of accepting that there is a wind.

BRYAN, Texas - A minister from a Dallas-area Baptist megachurch was caught in an Internet sex sting and charged with online solicitation of a minor, police said Friday.

Undercover officers posing as a 13-year-old girl communicated with Joe Barron, 52, of Plano for about two weeks. The online conversations were sexual in nature, police said.

On May 6, Barron suggested meeting the girl in person. He eventually made the nearly 200-mile drive to Bryan on Thursday, when he was arrested. Police said they found a web-cam and condoms in his car.

"We are disturbed and saddened by the reports we have heard and we are praying for the Barron family," he said.

Muslim leaders in Kenya's North Eastern Province have resolved to campaign against the promotion of condoms as a means of preventing HIV.

The decision was made after a recent meeting on the theme of "Islam and Health", attended by more than 60 Muslim scholars and teachers in the provincial capital of Garissa.

A lot of money is being wasted to poison our community ... a huge amount of money is spent on buying condoms, buying immorality, Sheikh Mohamud Ali, of Garissa district, told IRIN/PlusNews.

The leaders agreed to actively preach against the use and public promotion of condoms as a strategy to contain the pandemic and prevent pregnancy. They also agreed to oppose the distribution of condoms in villages and educational institutions across the northeast.

The clerics further demanded the closure of bars in the northeast and asked the government to suspend the licensing of any new bars. According to the clerics, local bars and "video dens" screened pornographic movies that were contributing to sexually transmitted infections. The widespread abuse of drugs was another factor: a locally grown mild stimulant, "khat", is popular in the region.

The leaders expressed their view that the best way for the youth to avoid HIV was through the observance of Islamic teachings such as fasting, regular prayer and shunning extramarital affairs. They advised men to avoid looking at women, who should dress modestly.

it is very easy to win a debate when you state your assumption as factual evidnece. ie. I suppose that the earth is 4.5 billion years old based on my assumptions it is 4.5 billion years old. Therefore the fact that the earth is 4.5 billion years old is based on evidence. the only problem is that the evidence is based on assumptions that are not factual or on observed facts that cannot be verified to be constant. So there you go a fairy tale supported by suppositions. I gues scientology is fact!

[The thread comes complete with a faked picture of a hole in the North Pole that he insists is real]

There is a lot of speculation about whether the hollow earth is a real issue or not, some scientists thought there is a sun inside the earth globe (interior sun), they think the interior sun is causing the Aurora Borealis, or Northern Lights, in fact they are quiet wrong. The real cause of the phenomenal Aurora Borealis is the sun light (the sun we all see above our heads) when it penetrates the southern gate or penetrates the northern gate and shines through right to the other end of the tunnel It is the sun light when reaching the other extremity of the tunnel of the plain earth (hollow earth) which causes the Aurora Borealis (no truth to the theory of interior sun) as the sun light penetrates in one of the gates and comes out of the other opposite side, as we have explained it in detail above from the sacred text of the holy Qur'an, as stated by Allah Most High : ((And He shows you (always) His Signs: then which of the Signs of Allah will ye deny? )) Allah's word is truth!

Prop 22 here in CA was passed overwhelmingly by voters! The people and the legislature make the laws, judges and courts enforce the laws not legislate from the bench. There was nothing unconstitutional about the proposition and certainly not by the fact that the people, voters approved it and made it LAW! These activist pukes in robes have been twisted by libs to do their bidding! This is how we, law abiding citizens lose our civil liberties and rights because the democrats need to create special privileges for such a small segment of society that it infringes on the rest of society! It seems to me this will only stop when the people take matters into their hands and literally clean house for good and get these dems and activists out! This is how communists gained power in countries..and isn't it a coincidence that dems and commies don't think law abiding citizens should be able to protect themselves from deviants?

I know many Non-Christians who are constantly on the move in an attempt to escape reality . They usually have the T.V. or radio on when they are home because they say it is too quiet otherwise.

Many of the Non-Christians I know aren’t very good at handling even a small crisis that threatens a small part of the way of life they take for granted. Can you imagine Non-Christians if the way the of life they take for granted in the U.S. suddenly stalls or ends? How would Non-Christians behave if we won’t be able to buy gas or groceries for a period of time? THESE ARE SOME SCARY THOUGHTS!

"For Pete's sake, if we left all civil-rights decisions up to 'the people' interracial marriage would probably still be illegal. This is one of the reasons the Supreme Court and the Judicial Branch in general exists in the first place..."

This is simply and completely false. I don't know of a single instance where a high court ruling was required in order to allow interracial marriage.

Once you decide there is a Right for Gays to marry based on a "is" (as in the meaning of)in the constitution, there is no moral ground at all for blocking polygamy, child marriage or even bestiality. All moral codes were declared null and void in making this decision, what argument could be made that wouldn't just be swept away as a personal bias. What has happened in CA is that a few reprobate minds have determined that the citizens of the state are not to be permitted to define their own laws.The people of CA, and other states, have been forced to define the obvious to a handful tyrants.
Regardless of where you stand on the issues of homosexuality, the decision of this court (and others) completely flies in the face of our constitution and the basic tenets of self government.So thats my answer and stop with your faggy mindless numbing posts.

I don't know the statistics, but I can assure you that I have heard more upsetting headlines in the past two years, than in the last 4. I'd prefer to stay home, thanks.
