Quote# 46009

The fact remains that the Theory of Evolution remains the defacto explanation of how living things got to their present state in the absence of God. Anyone who pursues a degree in the biological sciences will have to endure the bilge and swill of this Theory. It is quite possible you won't get a passing grade or your thesis denied if you don't regurgitate the barking assumption of Evolutionary Theory. It isn't going to go away.

There is no proof that humans evolved from an ape-like ancestor, only speculation, assumption, and an imaginative arrangement of bones and fossils in a pathetic attempt to establish a line of descent. That's the best an unbeliever can do, and unbelievers cling to this explanation for dear life.

A wise parent will teach their children beforehand about the Theory of Evolution so as to be prepared for the battle ahead, a war over heart, mind, and soul.

Without belief in God there really isn't any other way to explain how molecules arranged themselves into plankton and on to parakeets. As a parent I know I'll teach my child "what they sadly believe" and justly ridicule such foolish thinking, for the fool hath said in his heart there is no God.

A person strong in their faith need not fear the fairy tales of abiogenesis and Darwin's drivel. The student need only know "this is what the unbeliever believes in" and continue to do good science ignoring the bogus Theory but prepared to give an answer for the hope the believer has, and especially why one believes in God instead of not believing.

The time is soon coming to an end when one can sit on the fence dallying on whether to choose Christ or not. Choose today whom you will serve.

[Concerning the ever-troubling question of what would happen to conjoined twins during the rapture if only one of them is saved]

The saved twin would be raptured, body and all, and the unsaved twin would be left behind. If they shared major organs then the unsaved twin is in trouble, but that's not God's problem. A lot of people are going to die as a result of the rapture, i.e. car accidents from unmanned vehicles, airplane crashes, etc. It'll be utter chaos for a little while, but again that's not God's problem because if he were concerned about it, then he would fix it so that nobody dies at the time of the rapture, but I don't think he's going to do that.

I was just thinking at work. If the rapture happens and we go to heaven while the tribulation happens will we get our mansions and stuff there at that time? And when we return with Jesus for the 1000 year reign I suppose we will be leaving that stuff up there while we help Jesus rule the Earth? I suppose this is a wierd question but I was just curious what your thoughts are on this?
(Sooo... They LITERALLY think they're going to get "mansions and stuff" in heaven? Heaven's apparently going to be like a suburb?? Do they think Heaven is going to have Olive Gardens and malls and BMW dealers for them???)

yeah MCH1984 "morons" like me still exist in this planet. religion reclassed as a mental illness?? how come? just because we think that two people of the same sex having intimacy, is an abomination, we are mentally retarded? homosexuality was never meant to be. that's why 2 guys can't reproduce. it can only be a guy and a girl that can reproduce. isn't that fate? or destiny? HOMOSEXUALITY WAS NEVER MEANT TO BE! you were born from a heterosexual couple! that's a FACT!

I'm having a bad couple of days and am longing for the Rapture more than usual. Not just because of my bad days, there's just something inside that is making me long for it more than usual. I would love nothing more than to be out of here by 2009.

As we all know, we don't know the exact date of the Rapture but I'm pretty sure we won't be here in 10 yrs.

My husband stopped contributing to his 401K this week. It's only temporary (he is only 32 yrs old). He is really upset about the fact that he stopped contributing. My thoughts .. who cares, won't be here to collect on it anyway.

(Are Skull Shirts Evil?)

This issue started in middle school with my son, and when he would bring me a shirt like that to buy, I said to him, "find one where your not paying due to the devil, and I buy it.", or I'd kiddingly call it a satin worship teeshirt. I joked about it, but he knew I was also serious.

Because we dealt with it early, he knows not to bother to buy one now (17) or I'll throw it away, and I have thrown some garbage type clothes away (things with sayings on it that aren't nice).

Now if I could just get him to STOP listening to some rap music, life would be near perfect, but.....when I find those cd's they disapear, and he doesn't listen to it in the house or around us. We make him miserable by complaining and whining about it, he turns it off.

I can really whine effectively after 4 teenagers, it makes them go insane.

I believe that these tshirts and music are softening to the devil and pay him homage. And skulls are on ALOT of clothes now.

Of course I don't think highly of tattos, peircing or any markings but thats just me.

If you let the kid know how you feel about it and why, (talk to him like an adult) and then let him make the decision on it, maybe he'll make the right one, maybe not. Don't YOU buy the shirts or the bad music, make HIM spend his own money on it.
Then conveniently never wash the shirt, so he has to wash it himself, or if you see the cd laying around, hide it under a book or a shelf, maybe he'll forget about it.

You can always demand and say no, but that usually gets ya rebellion.

Its a tough world out there, and our kids are smack dab into alot of bad stuff our generation and the generation before have created for them.

Oh my god. Another one? Seriously. Stop it. I know what I believe is right, and you all can just shut up about it. Evolutionists just can't accept that evolution does exist. Just not to the point of becoming another species. To the point where my mom does not have brown eyes, but I do. God allowed us flexibility, but not that much.

These nasty liars & SLANDER MONGERS known as atheists must be admitted in mad-dogs hospitals for electric shock-therapy to fix loose nuts & bolts of their evil brains. These barking mad dogs are void of Wisdom & stick their whole life just with material & physical tangibility & do not see on other real directions; whether in fact Material is temp and transitional & has at the end no value.

These slander monger barking dumb deaf & blind dogs are shame for humanity and burden on this planet


What I say u here is not tht u go to ur Priest, Mulla or a clergyman to realize tht there is GOD & another real life aft this life, but I say u to read the most advncd, the most scholarly, the best scientific research & evidence tht shows you irefutable scientific evidence abt the existence of "Creator of this universe" & a very real life aft this life. Search a book in ur local library "Life After Life" by Dr. Raymond Moody. This evidence burns the roots of devil's cult called Atheism

Question for Parents and those expecting children...

If scientists were to isolate a gay gene and be able to tell if it caused children to be gay, would you support aborting that child to have a normal baby?

I think it is a tough question, but If I was able to tell if my pregnant wife was giving birth to a homosexual, I'd lean towards abortion. One sin prevents another

there are many many reasons why atheists are bad parents and un-fit to raise kids but the only one that LAWS should be used to stop them is a law that says only god fearing bible reading parents can have kids. if the bible is gods word(manual for living) and a person does not read it than how can they know how to raise kids? answer me that? how can they teach them what is right and what is wrong? how can they pray vfor god to watch over them and halp when things get bad. athiests are sooooo stupid and incompentant. how/why can they be trusted with kids?

(I LOVE skulls on stuff!...well....cute skulls.

And It is NOT a death culture or anything like that... it is EMO....the response to the "eternal sparkle" and expectations of perfection set by preps, cheerleaders, Barbie, etc.

It is a way of saying: "You want me to be perfect like Barbie... but I can't be, so you make me miserable about it, so at least I'll be miserable with style.")

Skulls are not cute, and they should not be a popular trend amongst Christians. Period. That's like saying that you think demons are cute. Its the culture of death. Plain and simple. "EMO" is another trend that lumps in with this culture of death. To some its just cute, but there is a message, and that is, "Death. Kill Yourself! Hate yourself! Show the world that you aren't scared to die! Embrace death as beautiful!, etc. etc." Maybe I could be off base, but I am pretty sure the message is crystal clear.

Cute is ribbons, frilly dresses, a puppy, babies, etc. etc . Trend + skulls = cute (Hypothetical) Trend + demons = cute. Just doesn't make sense.

By the way, God does call us Christians to be set apart from this world. We can do that without dressing differently, though, I would encourage modest attire. The way you dress can reflect your self-respect.

(This is a high school teacher, by the way.)

For now, the kids can wear what they want. But teachers? On Halloween teachers can wear costumes, shirts with skulls, even coats with skulls all over them all year if they want to. But teachers are not allowed to wear a cross ona necklace, a Christian t-shirt, or openly read Christian material in front of students. I didn't say that I obey that law, but that is the law.

What harm is being done? Why should kids be punished (by not being able to pray) for going to school? Don't teachers want kids to like school? (Oh, wait. I'm assuming that teachers are smart.) What I really don't get is why atheists rule the world. It's like, what atheists say goes. Like the evolution thread right here on the forums, for example: Circe posted the stupidest thing I've ever heard by saying there will be no religion in the evolution thread. Yet no-one can stand up to that because she's a mod, and apparently being a mod (or any "higher up")makes it so that everything you say is right no matter what. I'm just glad that, if I need to, I can pray in my school. (My home.)

You do realize that the Declaration of Independance, and The Constitution/Bill of Rights are also ACTUAL official government documents that state that this country IS a Christian nation?
Besides, the only qualifications for a "government document" is that it came from any branch of the government. Even most people in the government say that there are too many documents floatting around that either make no sense, or they don't have anything to do with anything. Just because it is a government document does not make it true or even senseable.
Anyone who has ever read the DOI and the Constitution know that this country was founded on biblical principles. Obviously you have never even read either.

Atheism is definitely a religious position, with a negative agenda ("Christians must die!") and a positive agenda ("Whatever is convenient is right" is a common one; conformity to some subset of societal values, in other words).

The tendency of atheists to rely on unargued denial of what they don't want to hear is also a defining characteristic.

Let me make it very clear

Biblical law mandates that there must be a trial before a punishment is carried out thus if you suspect someone of being gay without the person specifically saying so and without sufficient evidence then a death sentence cannot be carried out but if the person is publicly flaunting homosexuality and if it can be proved, without a doubt, that they committed a homosexual act then the death penalty can and must be carried out.

[On a Knoxville, TN school shooting]

We should not be surprised! The Lord was removed from our schools years ago and when God's not allowed then Satan takes his place. Our children are being raised in a society where there are few consequences for wrong doing. I grew up in an age where if you did wrong, you got punished, at school and at home. We are reaping what we have sown. My heart goes out to the students' families. Lives there will never be the same.
