    "Who Wrote the Bible?"

    "Who Wrote the Bible?" Try reading Misquoting Jesus by Bart D. Ehrman. He gives you a great, thorough look on how the New Testament was written and put together. It might be quite an eye opener for many people here. ;)

    another question about souls :)

    I asked a question about souls earlier and I have another one. If we all have souls and when we die our souls either go to heaven and hell, where do our souls come from and what are they? Do souls come from God? If so, are they a part of God, Himself? If not, what are souls exactly…if they’re...

    simple question

    Every Christian I’ve met has said so. And think about it, if animals have souls, why aren’t you preaching to them, trying to save their souls? Oh, because “the fall” didn’t effect animals. Right. Only humans. :doh:

    simple question

    No, you can always cut open the body and find the liver. They may not know what it is, but they know that something is there. You can’t cut open a person’s body and find a soul. The notion of the soul seems to arrive when the culture teaches us about souls. Take a child who has never heard...

    simple question

    Your brain is the holder of your personality, intellect, emotions, etc. Your brain absorbs wisdom. If we had no brain we could not live, we could not feel emotions, become intellectuals, have a personality or store wisdom. So what you just described was simply the brain. So what really is the...

    simple question

    You didn't answer the question. If you didn't have a bible and didn't have any knowledge of the Christian god, how could you tell you had a soul? Not everyone yearns for a god, nor does everyone yearn for a connection for a higher being. If you do not yearn, how can you know you have a soul?

    simple question

    Well, if that’s the case, then why don’t animals have souls? Animals have “electrical impulses and chemical reactions in (it’s) brain, guided by what input it receives by it's sensory receptors”. Why can an animal have “an accumulation of all that is (it)”? What’s the main difference besides...

    simple question

    So we’re all walking around with dead souls and if we accept Christ our souls are awakened? If my soul is dead does that mean I have no soul? Ok, so everyone has a soul. What does the soul do? If we didn't have any resources such as the bible, how would we know we have a soul? That's what...

    Another question about homosexuality

    I was wondering why homosexuality is a sin, besides because the Bible said so?

    religious experiences?

    I was wondering, of those who have had religious experiences, what was it like and was it vital to your faith? What did you feel, go through, see or hear? If you don’t understand what religious experience is, Wikipedia has a good definition. Thanks!

    Why does God make people with body parts that he wants removed?

    Very interesting question. I always wondered that myself. This may sound silly but I’m serious, if that’s the case, then why didn’t God tell them to cut off their pinkie toes? It would be a lot less dangerous and would surely make them different from other tribes around them. It...

    A few questions I keep stumbling over…

    Thanks for the reply. :) But where is the proof of what you call historical fact? If you've got a website or refrence to a book (besides the bible) I would love to read it.
