    Is God really who the Bible and The Church say he is?

    Sorry to hear of your mother. 1) We live in a fallen world. Disease, death, sadism? It's part of that world. However, it rains on the just and unjust alike. 2) "Going to Heaven" isn't Biblical doctrine. 3) Hell is "Sheol", the underworld.

    The Standard of Truth + False Signs

    Astrology? Not as it's practiced today. Reading the signs in the stars? Yes, I accept that. A world-wide flood? I accept that. Fortune-tellers? Define what you mean by fortune-tellers, please.

    A lot of Christians will disagree with you on this.

    The Standard of Truth + False Signs

    Ancient, primitive, savages? Please explain. My church? My church isn't a place, it's a people and we don't presume to speak on God's behalf. I will leave that to the Pope. God created us with the ability to reason and people reason differently. As for brains, everyone alive (excluding the...

    There were (to my knowledge) certain conditions which made one a slave.

    The Standard of Truth + False Signs

    I think an understanding of "slavery" and "slaves" in the context of Biblical history should gained before one considers what is and isn't moral about it. Furthermore, women aren't men and shouldn't be treated as men. Does this mean women are less and should be treated as less? No. Women simply...

    The Standard of Truth + False Signs

    I've been wondering lately if the Bible is truly without error. It's been translated many times and these translations different. If it's not without error, how can it be a standard or measure for truth? How can the liars and those deceived be found out? If there is no measure for what is true...

    Is marriage the cure for peoples problems?

    As Christians, we are to rely on God, not on man. If you have great crisis, is it wise to bring another into that? Perhaps first it is best to resolve the crisis? Perhaps before this, we are to get right with God and our crisis may be overcome through him?

    Atheists outperform theists at nearly all reasoning skills
