    First Aussie female bishop consecrated

    Why does the bible have to be examined in context? And why do Christians feel like they have the right to pick and choose what is still culturally relevant and what is not? I think if God really inspired the bible, it would be 100% relevant across all societies. There'd be no question.

    Define "correct"? How about "infallible word of god." The truth is a lot of the old testament writings offend even the most conservative Christians. How do you justify that?

    Hundreds of same-sex couples wed across California

    Oh and, we're not asking you to STOP doing the societal normative. Nobody is saying "gays can marry now, and breeders can't! IN YOUR FACE, SOCIETAL NORM!"

    If I were Buddhist, killing something so I could live would be a moral issue, it's not just about food. You're the one who has it backwards, and who completely ignored the point of my post. Slavery and racism were always around until the mid 1800s when nations began abolishing slavery. What...

    Never Had a B/F! Help!

    Stop placing your worth on whether you have a boyfriend or not. You'll meet someone, and until then, date yourself! Fully explore who you are. Enjoy being alone: grab a book and hit up a coffee shop, learn photography, get involved in politics. When you are 100% comfortable with yourself and...

    Sexual Compatability

    Of course love is more important than sex for committed relationships. But sex has emotional connotations that can't be avoided. Sexual compatibility has a lot to do with a person's views on sex itself. (And, in my opinion, family/church influence in telling someone sex is dirty or wrong or a...

    Lessons from a Hypocrite

    Making mistakes and then warning others about the bad decisions you made isn't being hypocritical, it's being self-aware. Now, if you see someone who smokes and think "they're disgusting" or if you see someone who doesn't go to church and think "what a bad person," you're being judgmental and...

    Hundreds of same-sex couples wed across California

    Noone is being hypocrites. You just don't understand how the law works. Judges are not suppose to make decisions based on whether or not it was Democratic, they are suppose to make judgments on whether or not the law works. And California is currently having a vote to change the constitution...

    No. There is a debate about this over in the General Theology forum at the moment, if you want to join in. Denying the blatant sexism of the bible is picking and choosing. Either it's all correct or none of it is.

    Harry Potter: Blasphemy or not?

    The idea that Christians should seal themselves off from the world is preposterous. If you want your kids to make healthy decisions, let them experience the world and then have talks about what it all means.

    Christian Preachers face Arrest

    Before we jump to conclusions about whether it was PERSECUTION (TM) perhaps we should find out what the leaflets said and whether it was, in fact, a hate crime? What if the leaflets had REPENT NOW OR YOU WILL BURN IN HELL, YOU JIHAD-WAGING SCUM! or something equally offensive/racist on them?

    Homosexual Agenda in US Congress gains support

    TEH HOMOSEXUAL AGENDA (TM)! they say it that way because it's scarier. Because if they treated gays like everyone else and not like some secret society out to DESTROY MARRIAGE AND FAMILY VALUES! they might be forced to realize that gays are people too and deserve respect and not judgment...

    To be fair, it's not really judicial tyranny. This government is based on opposition to the tyranny of the majority. Let's go back in time. Set aside your emotions and consider this: when women got the vote, do you think the majority of the country supported it? when slavery was abolished...
