    Xmas-7 Points to acknowledge for the thinking man.

    These are good points, RevOxley_501. It is great to read the post of an intelligent, thinking Christian after seeing so many of the other variety. Although I am familiar with the Greek alphabet from its use in mathematics and engineering, I never knew the history of the use of Xmas to...

    Why do Christians worship Mary?

    Why would anyone with good sense want to do this. According to the Bible Christ is the person who said in Matthew 19:24, " And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. " This statement suggests that...

    Why do Christians worship Mary?

    It doesn't made any difference what a website says, it is what the Bible says. In the first version of animal creation in Genesis, it says that man was the last of the animals to be created. In the second version of animal creation in Genesis, it says that man was the first of the animals to...

    Why do Christians worship Mary?

    It is true that there are cases in which faith is believing what has been proved not true. For example it has been pointed out at Dennis McKinsey's Biblical Errancy, http://members.aol.com/ckbloomfld/ , that the Bible is self contradictory. It therefore follows that the Bible is false without...

    Why do Christians worship Mary?

    When you say , this indicates you apparently don't even understand that Jews and Muslims also worship the God of the Bible. When I ask, What do you mean by the religion of Atheism, you respond with the silly comment, This certainly does not provide an explanation of what you mean by the...

    Why do Christians worship Mary?

    Perhaps a more clear description of faith would be to say, "Faith is believing what you know ain't so", as Samuel Langhorne Clemens put it.

    Why do Christians worship Mary?

    I accept your response as being correct. But this is truly unfortunate. If Roman Catholics are not allowed and encouraged to vigorously challenge religious dogma, they will not develop into clear thinking, rational seekers of truth.

    Why do Christians worship Mary?

    What do you mean by the religion of Atheism, FerventGodSeeker? The only thing atheists have in common is that they are not persuaded by the evidence for the existence of a God. The God they are referring to in their non belief is usually the God as described in the Bible.

    Why do Christians worship Mary?

    There has been theological research on the question of whether Christ was born of a virgin by the late Roman Catholic Theologian, Raymond Brown, and others. Taking into consideration this research, it would be interesting to know what percentage of Roman Catholics actually believe in the...

    America, Not Keith Ellison, decides what book a congressman takes his oath on

    Dennis Prager is the character who wrote the text quoted below. He seems to confuse his so-called values with the values of the United States of America. He forgets that the American people have never as a nation validated the Bible as a holy book. Our founding fathers were deists and therefore...

    Constitution: Dennis Prager is Unpatriotic and Unamerican

    No, I in fact have great admiration for secular Jews such as Milton Friedman, Ayn Rand, and Albert Einstein. I dislike Prager, but I also dislike this Family Focus guy (Dobson or something like that) who is a Christian. There are many other Christians whom I do not like. I dislike these...

    Constitution: Dennis Prager is Unpatriotic and Unamerican

    I have great admiration and respect for the late Milton Friedman. I think Milton Friedman is not only the greatest Jew who ever lived, I also think he is the greatest man who ever lived. He made great contributions to human freedom. I read his wonderful book, "Capitalism and Freedom", a long...

    Constitution: Dennis Prager is Unpatriotic and Unamerican

    Dennis Prager said at http : // www .townhall .com / columnists/ DennisPrager/2006/12/05/a_response_to_my_many_critics_-_and_a_solution "You don't have to be Christian to acknowledge that the Bible is the source of America's values. Virtually every founder of this country knew that and...

    Why Is High Intelligence So Rare?

    Accepting the premise, I think one of the primary reasons high intelligence is rare is because there are very few animals who have evolved into upright walking land animals. This upright posture allows the animal to use his hands for other tasks. I believe humans are the only animals to have...
