Please don't mistake me for one of those who can dish it out but can't take it. I actually enjoy a good jab at myself as long as it is not too personal of an attack and done in a decent spirit.

:jiggy: frubals for that one.
I'm not really interested in social standards. To try to get society to adhere to religious standards has failed so many times, it would be silly to even attempt anymore. The only interest I have here is defending a Christian doctrine. It's one thing to state...
Well, if that's the case...
Translation= "I'm not going to do any real research to validate the profound statements I made." or:
"I did some research and it didn't substantiate any of the profound claims I made and I am not willing to do anything about it"
It's actually too bad because I was...
For the third time, will you please quit ignoring Deut. 22:13-29.
Did you take somebody elses opinion on this or have you looked this up for yourself? BTW, The only version I have quoted is the NASV which does indeed use the word "fornication" in both the Acts 15 and 1Cor.6:9 and is...
The fact that this statemnt implies that "sex equals love" and due to the various slang terms indicating the exact opposite "friends with benefits", etc, this statement is still left with an absence for a definition of the word "love", is based on nothing more than personal experience, and...
Due to a recent comversation in another thread, I felt that it would be pragmatic to start another one on one debate with s2a over the Christian Theistic stance that a God, especially the Christian Monotheistic God, does indeed exist. The purpose, on my part, of this thread will be to show that...
Sorry That I couldn't do this earlier, something to do with work. You know, bills can't pay themselves.
Anyways, I had actually presented some of the basic tenets of this article in a debate titled "Consent?" ( http://www.religiousforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=15864&highlight=consent ) and...
[/LIST][/INDENT]It never ceases to amaze me where I find this copout response. All this response indicates is that all that was read or paid attention to by the respondent was the paragraph titled "The Fallout". You know, there is footnotes at the bottom of the page containing 19 sources for...
This is the best article I have ever read on the subject. I have yet to hear or read a decent rebuttle for it and the best part is that it gives logical unbiblical reasons: http://www.equip.org/free/DR508.htm

Very interesting questions!!!
This definetely reminds me of 1 Cor. 1:27 "but God has chosen the foolish things of the world to shame the wise..." and I don't get the impression from the cannonized gospel accounts that Jesus was considered by the general public to be the most wisest of people...
And yet when an argument is presented with direct quotes from Anton Levey or even his daughter drawing philosophical parrallels with other philosophies, people get all in an uproar about that too. One of my favorite things he has stated is that there are many people who are actually satanists...
Ofcourse they should. Not only here, but if what the Bible states is true then they will surely pay dearly later on.
I am curious as to why you are so intent on finding the shortcomings of those who attend or are even holding or held an authoritative possition in the church. Is this an...
continued from previous post...
Has this turned into a debate over causality? I am trully impressed in your vast knowledge of $20 dollar words and scripture and would love to have a one on one debate with you over the existence of God. I will even start one for you if you would like. I was...
Greetings s2a!!!
You replied to my post with:
Just the premise of asking believers to present arguments that would disprove their beliefs assumes as much despite the clarifications presented in the OP. It would be like me asking you to disprove atheism without using reason while...
Well, I'll be the first to state, at the risk of sounding weak minded, etc., that I absolutely need religion in my life. I am using the term religion to satisfy the OP's predisposition though. Ofcourse, I don't see it as needing religion as much as needing a relationship with God.
Without...
The first thing this thread does from a Christian prospective is downplay the role that faith plays in this issue (Eph.2:8-9 Heb.11:1), but being as how I am all for Christian Apologetics (1Pet.3:15) and firmly believe that faith is not dependant on ignorance (2Tim.2:15), I am happy to play...
Sorry, but gotta go for now. wish I could stick around. Have a blessed day tommorrow and I look foward to carrying this conversation on further.

I actually live in Menlo, which is right next to Stuart which has the pool. Do you happen to know any Cottrels in Ottumwa? Tell Turk that I truly wish him as good of a day as possible tommorow.;)
I'm probably going to get chewed out for this one, but the first time I saw one I was taught to squeeze their abdomen off on to my skin and watch my skin glow. My kids do the same. Haven't seen one yet.
