    A quick pole to see where everyone stands on Katrina.

    If that's the case. so is everything else on the news http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2005-09-04-katrina-reportersnotebook_x.htm http://www.womensenews.org/article.cfm?aid=2439 ( whew , that took a whole five minutes to confirm) Where in the world did that come from?! If I or anybody in...

    A quick pole to see where everyone stands on Katrina.

    That's all fine and dandy as long as those who raped volunteers trying to help the victoms out and violent looters are standing trial right along with them. Sincerely, SoliDeoGloria

    Political vs. Philosophical

    Why is it that those who disagree with religious morals claim that morality is subjective in philosophical arenas and then protest objective moral offenses in political arenas? BTW, due to being pretty busy I will not be able to contribute as I have in the past, but I will try to contribute as...

    Whining

    LOL good point. I see this a lot as a foreman where I work. I don't know how to fix the problem in society as a whole but I do know that my whining dramatically decreased during my four year stay in prison when I realized that I had lost everything I held dear and there wasn't a thing I could do...

    Once Saved Always Saved vs. Lose Your Salvation

    First off, I would like to point out that every church I have been to that taught that one could lose their salvation also taught that they could gain it back. Being as how, gaining one's salvation back after it has been lost is not taught anywhere in the Bible, one has to consider whether those...

    Consent?

    Those are indeed valid points. To that I would like to add that it does not happen in all marriages. I would be suprised to find out if it happened in half. Even the article I read did not state that marriage was the only way of avoiding getting hurt while engaging in sexual relations, it just...

    Consent?

    Great Responses!!! I must confess that I got the original idea from an article I read a couple of years ago and decided to try it out here. The intended message of the article was that if there is more to sexual relations than mere consent proven by the fact that rape (a sexual crime) violates...

    Music

    http://www.piney-2.com/MuEndorp.html here's just a clip: Michael Davis, Ph.D., Yale University, reviews studies of the startle reflex suggesting that fear engages different circuitry than anxiety. Circuits involving the central nucleus of the amygdala appear to process conditioned fear...

    Hands up who believes in the Trinity!

    Well, Thisshouldmakesense You should know that I believe in the Trinity from your last attempt at this which you failed to finish.( http://www.religiousforums.com/forum/showthread.php?p=164877&highlight=trinity#post164877 ) Is this thread going to end up the same way? Sincerely, SoliDeoGloria

    Extremism and Sepratism

    Am I THAT bad at communicating?! Can you please explain to me where you get the idea of repenting after one dies out of ? BTW, I do not adhere to the Catholic doctrine of purgatory. As far as the "bet for Jesus" thing goes; For one, I didn't know this was a Philosophical debate over Blaise...

    Extremism and Sepratism

    The trick to avoiding this is admitting that we are not God and have no idea who exactly is going to hell because what it truly comes down to is what someone takes to their grave. In other words, everybody has a chance of repenting and even Jesus stated that the only two sins that would cause...

    Extremism and Sepratism

    I guess it is hard for Christianity to not be the norm after being the norm for so long although it is not the first time. Christianity, in it's very beginnings was considered a wacked out cult. The Roman, Byzantine, and British empires at least made claims of being strongly infulenced by...

    Extremism and Sepratism

    What a revealing statement. Especially the part about how convenient it is. Read the cannonized Biblical Gospels. There are plenty of examples of Jesus Christ being repulsed at things His disciples did to the point of even calling one of them "Satan" and yet loved them enough along with the...

    Extremism and Sepratism

    Great points you two!!! Please forgive me for going a bit off subject here, but this statement causes me to wonder how many other people have gotten into politics with the same intentions and sort of got sucked into all the things we see as negative about politics due to the overwhelming...

    Extremism and Sepratism

    When one looks at the history of most major religions, it is interesting to note that what was praticed by many of these groups would be considered extremism or sepratism today. With that being noted, one might wonder if who or what we define as extremists or sepratists is dependant on the...

    Is Man Born Corrupted?

    Beleive it or not, there are people who truly know the whole Bible rather than just a few verses. When defining a doctrine, it is always good to use something called hermeneutics: *** The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.48 *** Hermeneutics \Her`me*neu"tics\, n. [Gr. ...

    Is Man Born Corrupted?

    And that is exactly what happens when one tries to buld a doctrine on a couple of verses without taking the rest of the Bible into context. Good job of going way off subject though. Sincerely, SoliDeoGloria

    Morality

    I was speaking of different philosophical explainations of moral origins. I.E. who or what was the originator, not that one morality is "truer" than another. Sincerely, SolideoGloria

    Is Man Born Corrupted?

    Rom. 1:18-20 " For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because that which is known about God is evident within them; for God made it evident to them. For since the creation of the world His...

    Is Man Born Corrupted?

    The Apostle Paul makes an interesting statement in Roman's 7:9 "and I was once alive aprt from the Law, but when the commandment came, sin became alive and I died". In this statement, he acknowledges a mentality of accountability rather than an age. The issue of infant baptism has been highly...
