    Theories on the Difference between Western and Eastern Christianity

    When you look at the early secular history, the barbarian invasion of the Western would result in many smaller groups of people such as the Visigoths adapting western christianity. This in itself provided more varied influence on the religion than in the east. After this initial fragmentation of...

    Chariot Wheels Found On The Bottom Of The Red Sea - The Exodus REALLY HAPPENED

    Interesting article. However you need to be careful with your sources. Your article quotes the wheels were found by Ron Wyatt, while I am sure he was well meaning, his works are dubioius. Even answers in genesis thinks he is wrong (near bottom of page on link below)...

    Why a true omniscient cannot coexist with true free will.

    Very good answer. God can defy logic and common sense, you might not be able to comprehend what he does, or what he can do. Just because you cannot comprehend it doesn't mean he can't do it. Ultimately this premise can end many theological arguments. God by definition is what he says he is...

    Is it ever really possible to prove or disprove the existence of God?

    You need to define something before you can prove it. I think defining both God and defining love are impossible. Love cannot be defined because it is not absolute, because it is an emotion. As it is something to be experienced it is a different thing to different people. It can only...

    Someone show me scripture on Pre-Marital Relations

    There is not much reference to pre-marital sex in the bible because in those days everyone got married when they were like 12 years old. So it wasn't a problem that needed to be addressed. The only references that specifically relate to premarital sex are essentially about property law...

    deuteronomy 22.5 - is it really unchristian for me to wear trousers???

    I read somewhere (sorry I can't remember where) that back in the old testament days, it was common for temple prostitutes to cross dress - that is male temple prostitutes would dress as woman, and female temple prostitutes would dress as men. They would have orgies whilst dressed like this. The...

    Why do Catholics believe they are the only legitimate branch of Faith?

    I reckon that evolutionary theory applies to church congregations as well. Survival of the fittest. Churches which make a distinct identity for themselves and defend that identity are more likely to survive. Congregations that have their own quirks to distinguish themselves, these quirks...

    For my fellow Christians - the danger of misplaced dogmatism

    Great article. I think your main idea about dogmatism can be applied to a much larger scope than just creation/evolution, you could extend it to any theological issue. The bible says something about questioning it for yourself, do your own study etc. (sorry can't remember where abouts). I...

    Girlfriend's an atheist, how do I break it to her?

    7 years. That's such a shame to throw that away. :cry: To clarify - it is a shame to break up after being together for such a long time. When you have invested so much in a relationship it is always sad to end it. The relationship would not have to end if you were to become an atheist too...

    Non-believer + SDA

    Hi all, This is a bit long, please bear with me. :sleep: A few months ago I fell in love with a man. I have known him for a while, but now my feelings for him have grown deeply, and those feelings reciprocated. I believe that fate brought us together and we are meant to be. He revealed to me...

    Inappropriate prayers

    thank you all for your replies - they have helped muchly. :) i have another question - maybe i should make a new thread (if no one replies here I will) - regarding God's will. God knows what is going to happen - he knows what you are thinking, what you will choose and do, everything that will...

    Inappropriate prayers

    Hello! :wave: I have a question about praying to God. Is there anything you should not pray about - like anything inappropriate? Are there things you should not ask God for? I am not sure it is right to pray for selfish reasons - eg to pray for more money so you can go and buy things you...
