yeah i'll have to agree that unfortunately it's sometimes the case...but i should add that religion (or at least the religion i know) is all about a personal relationship with God rather than rigidly following proscribed regulations.

do you mean the statue of artemis in ephesus lol? lol it seems a bit inane that they would shout non-stop for two hours

think i may be setting a record but 22 and still a virgin, and proud of it!

yes, really :)

hi all what's cracking

I agree, but I think it's worthwhile discussing these things so we understand where the other side are coming from. I've certainly learnt alot ITT.

i never asked for a textbook response, i just want to know if this guy really knows what he's arguing about. and if you read my response, you'll understand that it wasn't my intent to criticize evolution. so i'd appreciate if you kept your personal attacks to yourself.

In 2 Peter 3:9 it says: And the word also says that Hell wasn't created for humans but for fallen angels, and God loved the world so much that he gave his one and only son to die in our place. That to me speaks of a God of amazing grace and mercy. If we reject God's rescue plan, then how can...

the single biggest flaw with evolution is the incontinuity in the fossil record. but that's not the point. the point is that if someone is going to ridicule my beliefs then they better come up with some proper justification, which most people have been doing. but ITT 3unitz has done nothing...

i believe your interpretation of the bible is mistaken. anyway, doesn't the quran teach the same things?

lol prove me wrong and show me you know what you're arguing, rather than resorting to base rhetoric. so again, i'm asking you to show me you personally understand the evidence behind evolution, if you please.

I'm curious what kind of things do you believe we have control over? edit: Or rather, what things do we not have control over?

you said if you're arguing your case on the supposed abundance of evidence for evolution, shouldn't you at least be able to back up your claims? yet you have the gall to question my ability to research these facts. I know what the scientific facts and theories are. I want to know if you do...

i agree we're influenced by our own surroundings, but it's false to take a deterministic view and conclude there's nothing we can do about it. if that's the case then why do you bother getting up every morning and going to school?

tell me where's the evidence for evolution?

oh don't get me wrong i know as well as anybody how wicked I am, the only difference is that this wicked person has accepted grace

God designed humans with free will, but it's up to us to decide how we'll choose to live our lives. Surely you can't blame God for deliberately rejecting the only chance of salvation you're given. And even that's by grace alone- God would be well within his rights to deny anybody salvation...

Not according to the Bible, I'm afraid-

there's so many starving people in the world today, but does that absolve us of our responsibility to do whatever we can? of course it might seem impossible but: 1) we have to think on God's terms, and not on our human limitations. 2) we have to do the best we can with the gifts God has given us.

I don't believe in the Quran, but I can see where that argument's coming from. As a Christian, I believe that people and times change, but truth never changes.
