So do you immediately lose being "one" when one partner in a hitherto non-Christian marriage becomes a Christian?? Do you immediately lose your "common ground"?? All very well pontificating about what is right and wrong and laying down laws about who can meet and socialise with who before...

I'm so pleased you called this thread "The Bible and Science. Too many Christians argue about The Bible OR science. And its a great shame so many never learned about metaphors, similes, allegories, figures of speech, and ordinary poetic constructions.

We are not to judge people, and label them, as has been said so clearly on this thread. But we can, and should judge people in general, in order to avoid "bad company", illegal, wrong or silly actions etc. Usually its called "common sense", but we have, as Christians, to make sure that we...

The article in question has been rubbished by another paper in its science section, as having misinterpreted and deliberately misinforming as to what the scientists are trying to do. Humans nowhere enter the equation, and they weren't actually trying to make rams heterosexual. And anyway...

How can you have a "cure" for something that isn't an illness? This sounds the most wicked, unethical thing I have ever heard. And if Evangelical Christians (and there are other sorts, you know) start supporting this sort of nonsense they deserve all the ridicule they will receive. Next...

Alternatively, just stick to Protestantism. Just because someone says you are wrong doesn't mean you are wrong!

So if a mine blows a soldier's leg off in Iraq, its for God's greater glory? Or if an African child steps on one of the many mines left behind after the various wars, it could be for God's greater glory? Funny way of wanting to show his glory! And personally, and I don't want to start a...

Chris777- are you talking about spiritual knowledge or secular knowledge? (If, of course, you can separate them!) Do you mean that you don't believe in acquiring knowledge at all? No going to school, university, college? Do your children acquire knowledge to help them through their daily...

Don't know where you are from, but at least you are quoting a reputable newspaper! Bangladesh will probably be the next casualty. Parts will flood, but also the salt sea will seep into low-lying farmland, rendering it useless. I read today that Bush has agreed that Polar Bears need help...

Can't remember his name - that Imam who preached all sorts of violence in Mosques and was, I think, imprisoned. Similarly, the BNP (British National Party - a very far-right-wing organisation,) have on various occasions been accused of inciting race hate and violence against Asians. Probably...

tiredwalker, you'd do better to go to the site I told you about. If you can't find the discussiion there, PM me.

All the electricity and gas companies are trying this on!! They get our money long before they need it, so get interest on it. There's been a lot in the papers about it. Don't go along with it. If necessary, go back to paying quarterly by cheque. Don't let the **** get you down or get...

No, Al Gore hasn't been "hired by the Government"! I've just checked. He is over here speaking at various places on global warming. That's OK by us - speech is free in the UK.

Well, if you don't think that some people have got an obscene amount of money, and millions of people can barely live, then I think you need to read your Bible!! I didn't say being a Marxist was a good idea. There was an "or" between the marxist and wealth redistribution. Are you sure Al...

Thanks very much, but Al Gore and his merry men are hardly influencing us British!!! Most people wouldn't know who he was if he came up and bit them! No, we have plenty of perfectly good, reputable scientists of our own (yes, we are civilised over here, and our education system is just...

Yes. Next question.

Ah well, only time will tell!

Yes, I remember you from before on this topic!! However, we are talking about climate, not weather. And unfortunately, man has got clever enough to have an effect on it. And has been since he learned to burn coal, thus making the cities of the industrial revolution black, flithy and...

That's all right then. Everyone else can go around driving their great big gas guzzlers, while people in Bangladesh are driven from their fields by salty sea seeping in, as sea levels rose Frankly, anything that AiG publishes I would ignore, or believe the exact opposite.

Oral tradition, plus the letters of Paul, Peter, the writer of Hebrews, and probably other letters that haven't survived. And oral tradition is not to be despised. When people of illiterate, then the only way of passing information on is by speaking and istening. There were undoubtedly...
