    hypothetically speaking

    According to the poll statistics, I'm the first to vote 'yes'. I would be terrified, of course, and it might take a long time for me to pluck up the courage for it, but finally that tiny little spark of doubt in the back of my mind would get the better of me and I would ask it. I have faith...

    What all religion are really saying is..

    This is called trolling, and the worst thing a person can do in such situations is fuel a troll. This person is posting inflammatory comments specifically to rile up the responders. I would personally advise people to just ignore it if it's bothersome - trolls are only encouraged to continue...

    Thank you. :) I don't think that I have any more questions regarding this.

    What is Charismatic, and why specify Spirit-Filled?

    Thanks. C: So is it a charismatic belief that the tongues being mentioned are a language impossible for us to understand, or that it's actually communicating in other worldly languages? Or, does it vary from charismatic Christian to charismatic Christian?

    One Year Ago.

    One year ago, my best friend and sister died. She'd been battling with osteoperosis, liver failure, kidney failure and an over-production of mucous in her lungs and nasal cavity for several years. She was the sweetest girl in the world: she was never aggressive, and all she ever wanted to do was...

    What is Charismatic, and why specify Spirit-Filled?

    Thank you both for responding. It's both clarified the title of the sub-forum for me, and led to further confusion. Given the answers I've been given, it seems as though one cannot believe oneself to be charismatic unless they attend a charismatic church and/or have been baptised in the Holy...

    What is Charismatic, and why specify Spirit-Filled?

    Please note that I'm in no way trying to start a debate! This is an honest curiosity - I'm new to the faith, so I'm not very educated regarding the various terms. I'm not trying to imply hostility, disbelief or disapproval in any way, shape or form. What does it mean to be a charismatic...

    Leggings as pants

    I love wearing leggings with long tunics and boots myself - it's cute, it's comfortable and I have a figure that complements the leggings/tunic style, but when women wear them with singlets or with other tight clothing, it looks degrading to the woman in question and the men who I'm usually in...

    New forumer, new Christian.

    I'm sorry about the way that has appeared ... I used paragraphs regularly, but they didn't come out in my post. It also won't let me edit it now. Um ... Well I changed web browsers from Mozilla Firefox to Internet Explorer and it's now letting me edit, so I fixed the spacing. Does this forum...

    New forumer, new Christian.

    Hi there. I'm Leferowe, and I guess you could call me a "newbie" Christian. I'm not too sure that I agree with the use of the word Christian - to my previously atheistic/agnostic mind, it implied religion and passive receiving of priest-delivered monologues rather than a deep, personal...
