Even harder to believe, for me.

As do the teachings that a donkey became sentient and spoke like a human for a few minutes, a ninety-year-old woman who passed her last ovum decades ago had a baby, the human race first populated via mass incest at the beginning of time with little to no physical or mental problems until a few...

Yes, grown women go through that too. What I am saying is that those complications are even more likely to occur in young girls, because their bodies are greatly underdeveloped. Their pelvises and hips are too narrow and their bodies are smaller, which means more and more nutrients being drained...

Absolutely not. I've heard horror stories about child pregnancies. I recently read about an 11-year-old girl who had to have an emergency hysterectomy because childbirth destroyed her reproductive system. That girl will NEVER be able to have children when she is an adult if she wants to, all...

So is it a sin to ask questions now? Sounds like an Association Fallacy to me.

I don't think they are myself. Satan uses a serpent to tempt Adam and Eve, but that does not mean that ALL serpents are evil. And while Satan is occasionally referred to and compared to a dragon/serpent, it is metaphorical, not necessarily literal.

False equivalency. The Bible only tells us what we need to know about God's creation of the earth, God's people, Jesus, and the start of the Christian Church. Like I've said before, the Bible was not created to be a science book or the be-all, end-all of all knowledge. That's Sola Scriptura to...

I believe the Earth is a round sphere because scientists, including astronomers, and astronauts have made discoveries throughout the millennia. The Bible is not, and was never meant to be, a science book. It is the story about God and his children, and about how Christ became a man, died for our...

Yeah, the Earth is flat and stationary, and NASA and ALL of Earth's best and smartest scientists faked their astronomical telescope findings, satellites, and space travels. Just like how lizard people are in control of the United Nations and planning to take over the world, all of Hollywood is...

Exactly. For example, the 1611 KJV had the Apocrypha, which most Protestants, including Baptists, consider non-canonical.

The Duggars, along with other people in the IFB movement, only make up a small portion of the Baptist denomination though. None of the Baptist girls and women I know wear skirts and dresses only. The Baptists who are against women wearing pants or shorts are a small minority.

The thing is, though, sexual abuse is more than just "a failure in one area." What he did was not just a one-time slip-up. This was predatory and immoral behavior, and covering up of it, that persisted for decades until his death. He sued and silenced Lori Anne Thompson, one of the women he...

Pavel Mosko is right. Dreams are often simply our subconscious minds' absorption of our thoughts, worries, hopes, passions, fears, experiences, etc. I've had a dream where I stabbed my aunt in the back with a knife in my family's main bathroom, even though I would never do something remotely...

And to make it even worse, churches like the IFB largely handle these cases by not handling them. Many of them just have the offender make one, usually fake and empty apology and demand that the offended party or parties forgive them (and apologize for their part in the offense, because...
