    Is God Aware of Being God?

    I'm not trying to suggest that a scriptural citation equates to "reasonable grounds." However, it provides demonstrable evidence that the monotheistic Judeo-Christian faiths are worshiping a being that they believe is aware of its own existence. Additionally, the Bible demonstrates God's...

    The person baptizing is secretly a satanist. Does your baptism count?

    You must mean a professed Christian, correct? What if the person performing the baptism wasn't a professed Christian that was secretly a satanist, but merely a professed Christian harboring severe doubts regarding their faith? Would that baptism still count? What about a baptism performed by...

    The person baptizing is secretly a satanist. Does your baptism count?

    How exactly does one manage to perform a "satanic baptism?" How does it differ from a regular baptism? Does the satanist merely think bad thoughts? Keep a live chicken in his underwear? Cross his fingers during the dunking? I dunno. Does the Bible say that any baptism performed by a...

    What does your religion say about rape/sexual assault?

    Where are the forum monitors when you need 'em? In this case, wouldn't "it's" be the proper form? Why employ the possessive? Situation She Finds Herself In: Raped in town. God's Verdict: Stone her. Isn't that exactly what the Bible is saying? Yet the verse that proscribes death to...

    What does your religion say about rape/sexual assault?

    Q. - Does the Bible trump the Catechism of the Catholic Church, or is it the other way 'round? Because the Bible really only treats rape as an evil if a man's property rights are violated. If the woman in question isn't betrothed or married ... God apparently thinks a small fine and a shotgun...

    What does your religion say about rape/sexual assault?

    Translation: You're quoting directly from the Bible and daring me to condemn its divinely-sanctioned barbarity. Clearly, the scripture assumes that a woman cannot possibly get raped in town. She can only claim to have been raped, correct? Yet (as you've already conceded) the Bible insists...

    why is being gay forbidden ?

    Hah! I'll own up to the fact that I was simply trying (in a totally flippant fashion) to see things from the theist's point of view. That outrageously contradictory statement you quoted was simply the inevitable result of starting with my conclusion and working backwards through the evidence...

    why is being gay forbidden ?

    I wasn't being the least bit serious. I was simply spouting the sort of garden-variety verbiage that's seemingly de rigueur with religious types. Yet doesn't that appear to be God's Will? Imagine Christianity without the silly discrimination. You could bury the entire institution in a shoe...

    What do you get for believing in an historical Jesus?

    Actually, I believe the correct answer is : All the potluck casseroles you can stomach. ... If that's yer idea of heaven, have at it.

    Can this be anything other than what it appears to be?

    Your conclusion is erroneous. I read it. And the linked story.

    What does your religion say about rape/sexual assault?

    I'll presume that this is your innate humanity struggling against your piety. To say nothing of being told by your rapist that you'll be killed if you make a sound. Obviously, a threat like that only works in a godless country where they won't automatically stone you to death if you get raped.

    What does your religion say about rape/sexual assault?

    One of the very best ways to illustrate the barbarity of Old Testament Law is to simply advocate for it in a modern context. Please cite the book, chapter, and verse from the Bible that states that a woman who has been raped has any say whatsoever as to whether or not she must marry the man...

    Do France Allow Freedom of Speech/Religion?

    Can you substantiate that assertion? Do you really believe that? For instance, would you describe my right to blaspheme freely against The Prophet of Islam as "precious?" Would you support my right to merely hold a less-than-favorable opinion of him? And there's the catch, apparently...

    What does your religion say about rape/sexual assault?

    According to the Bible, if the woman he wants to rape isn't already another man's property, a rapist simply has to pay her dad off after he rapes her: "If a man meets a virgin who is not betrothed, and seizes her and lies with her, and they are found, then the man who lay with her shall give to...

    Are Monotheistic Religions Truely Monotheistic?

    Please define "deity." ... Caveat: I hope you'll avoid defining deity as a supernatural being that lives outside of space and time and that can influence earthly events and human actions ... because to do so would almost certainly define Satan into deity-hood. There are limits to Satan's...

    Apparently, Garner Ted Armstrong made a guest appearance on "Hee Haw." Hope that helps.

    why is being gay forbidden ?

    Agreed. Wait. Hold up there a second. There is a reason: It is written. Perhaps, but being born that way is still a choice! Yes. It would appear so. In fact, sin entered the world because of a heterosexual couple. See: "Reasons, God Has Morally Sufficient"

    Can this be anything other than what it appears to be?

    The point is: If you can point to a tomb, the rest of the myth must be real! In related news, Spider Man was real.

    Gay Passion of Christ Envisioned and Attacked

    Sorry. It's often difficult to view the more tolerant members of Christendom as part of "The Establishment."
