There are many man made beliefs that are held by most Christian denominations. The two that are most harmful sound so pious:
The Bible is the word of God
...and without error
There's lots of great in the scriptures, but Christianity is a revealed religion. The scriptures even tell us that...
I never said that.
Possibly why I didn't say that.
You mean Komrade Trumpsky? Why change the subject?
Yet you defend Komrade Trumpsky. The irony is palpable.
So you're OK suspending their 1st amendment rights because someone gets offended? I'm certain that the Brits felt the Boston Tea Party was a violent protest. Imagine that.
If you don't like the resistance, then please don't join: we don't need you anyway! The more your rail against us and call...
There's been violence on both sides of the fence. Your 'so called' president certainly hasn't united this country, has he. If I were you, I would follow the first rule of Scuba while you wait for that to happen: Don't hold your breath.
I like most of the tenets of the OP... but I refuse to...
Way too legalistic for me.
Mark 2:27 The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath. NIV
and
Colossians 2:16 Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. 17 These are a shadow of the...

Matthew 23:15 “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you...
All memes are welcome, but this is a fact free zone: don't comment on the memes!!! Let us know if you created the meme with a "mine". You might not have created the pic or the sentiment, but if you put the two together, then it's YOUR meme. These first four will all be "mine". :D :D :D
Depends on the inquiry. It sucks when it comes to history. We can certainly divine many of the mechanisms for evolution, but we still don't know which came first: the chicken or the egg.
In addition, the scientific process is only applicable to the natural world and not the supernatural. It's...
It's the end of the world as we know it... I'm feeling kinda crappy. Who knew we would be electing the anti-christ to the Whitehouse. For those who believe in cycles, he does appear to be a resurrection of Hitler and Stalin combined.
The last time the Republicans controlled The House, The Senate and the Presidency was the year prior to the Great Depression. Imagine that. Bush will no longer be regarded as the worst president in history.
