    Hitler and Ancient Israel

    This question is not exclusive to calvinists, but I want to post it here. This video by an atheists brings up a good point about how you can compare the situations between events of the old testament and nazi germany. Christians defend one but condemn the other. He goes into other things toward...

    What does prayer mean to a Calvinist?

    I see, so prayer is a means that God uses to change the hearts of the people who are praying. Is that correct?

    What does prayer mean to a Calvinist?

    What is the purpose prayer if God has already preordained everything? What does prayer actually do?

    Need help with the youth at my church.

    Another young adult in my church and I are trying to start a youth ministry at our church directed toward the 18-29 year old age group. I would say regular attendance at our church to be around 50-70 people every week. The two of us are in our early 20's and there are probably about 10 people in...

    I love attack on titan! Yes, EPIC is the one word to describe it. Though, in the show they worship the wall surrounding the human civilization as God...WHAT!???

    Anime Conventions

    I will be going to Otakon in about a week. I used to cosplay at every con, but these days I don't have enough time to make costumes (I'm not that good at sewing and the ones I've made so far aren't very good and I wouldn't want to wear them again). I go to three cons a year, Anime USA, Katsucon...

    Angel Beats and Christianity

    I love much of Key's anime. Clannad is my favorite romance of all time and Kanon was great too. But after I saw the first episode of Angel Beats, it turned me off personally because of their motto "No God, No Buddha, No Angels." Now, that doesn't mean you can't enjoy it, but just be aware that...

    May seem like an ignorant question but...

    Is there something specific that non-denominational Christians believe that separate them from other denominations (yes, I know it's strange that I'm speaking about non-denominational christians as if it was another denomination). How exactly does being a non-denominational Christian make you...

    The U.S. is 14.7 trillion in debt and Obama says..SPEND MORE!!

    You can't just blame this on Obama however, neither side wants to cut spending. During the debt ceiling fiasco, if the republicans had their way, they would only be cutting proposed spending increases and in the end, we would still be spending more than we would be the year before. They talk...

    Nobody Listens To Paul Krugman

    I think that since Krugman believes that destruction stimulates the economy, he decided to blow up some cars for the good of America. However, I actually believe Krugman is a really nice person. I just think he's wrong on everything about the economy. And it's not that it is he specifically...

    Repeal the 2nd Amendment of USA constitution

    I don't know if we are still talking about gun laws or if someone has already said this. But as well intentioned as banning guns is, it will not make people safer. Criminals don't obey the law, so why would they obey a ban on guns? If you look at a large amount of the mass murders that happen...
