Sure you do. Atheists - particularly those who congregate online - increasingly persuade one another in increasingly loud and wordy voices that they're the only logical ones and what they believe is scientific and empirical and rational and that they have the monopoly on those things. Enough...

Yes, and claiming it's actually just a vacuum is pointless semantics. If there is a God - and I believe there is - your choosing to disbelieve in Him is a (dis)belief system. Actually, no. Some cross over into anti-theism, or even anti-God, and label it "atheism" which sounds more indifferent...

This was so nice :hug: Thank you! Happy Easter to you, too. I know it doesn't have the same meaning for someone who doesn't believe... but I hope you had a lovely day :)

This is totally true. For example, "love" in the English Bible covers 3 different words for love in the original text and it loses so much of its colour and meaning. If I can show you what I mean? After Peter betrayed Jesus by denying Him 3 times, in our English Bible, all we have is Jesus...

If only you knew the freedom of being in Christ. I, and all people, that have accepted His salvation are assured a place in heaven. We don't need to desperately scrabble around for a place, doing good deeds, wearing the right things, praying in the right direction enough times a day, only to...

Because, frankly, Islam is too dangerous a religion to have a bank in a country it is increasingly and insidiously starting to oppress. National banks I understand. Religious banks (ones which fail to adhere to the tenets of its faith, no less) are alarming, because it's the thin end of a very...

Thank you :) He would absolutely have accepted them. He accepted prostitutes, tax collectors, murderers, the lead persecutor of His people... and He will have commanded them to sin no more. Jesus was the nicest chap of all time. He is also the holiest of chaps. He wasn't some weed-smoking...

The reason for the teapot is irrelevant. I could just as easily have mentioned the Pink Unicorn thing, or the spaghetti monster or Han Solo. We could assign the Trilemma to Mickey Mouse until we're blue in the face. But while he's stuck on the pages of a book, or up on screen only, it's...

As per your invitation, have lugged the discussion over thisa way :) As you are host, will there be tea? And cake? There really should be tea and cake. Also Nutella, please. When you said hatred is hatred, your post rather gave the impression you were referring to the Bible. Did I...

This is essentially a re-hash of the teapot circling the earth argument. It's patently absurd. Find me one person that has genuine experiential proof of the teapot. I'll provide you with potentially millions that can genuinely attest to the existence of Christ. The same goes for Zeus. Fictional...

Steady on. Hatred is a terrible terrible thing to accuse someone of. I'm a/was a bi-sexual woman, and I KNOW that my attraction to women was a a sign of my brokenness and unwellness. (Funny thing is, many atheistic straight people will presume to tell me I know nothing of homosexuality simply...

Am born and bred in England, and we don't have the death penalty, either. Am deeply, deeply, deeply against it. I really think it's a political issue - much like abortion has become. If life is sacred, all life is scared. Did you ever notice how it's often the people that are the loudest...

Really? I'm in London, and last Wednesday I happened to see a bank called "The Islamic Bank of Britain" (which, frankly, frightens the living daylights out of me) and it advertises its "profit rates" in the window. In any event, the Bible prohibits the charging of interest, specifically...

It's perhaps very little to do with how you're dressed, but I wonder if you realise that you look desperately, desperately unhappy. Am sorry for that. Christianity isn't legalistic - presumably your dress sense is an outward display of your worldview: it's plumage, letting the world around you...
