    "Uniting All Christians As One Body"

    Interesting that ALL religions out there in SOME way have tried to establish some sort of equation, replacement or addition to... Christianity. Nothing else on earth holds the position of honor in the race to replace than Chrisitanity. [/color] And here we have a glimpse into the Mormon...

    "Uniting All Christians As One Body"

    I would have to agree with Isaiah about the 'unity' thing. What needs to be understood from other views (LDS, Hindu, Muslim or whatever) that TRADITIONAL JUDEO-CHRISTIAN beliefs are very exclusive. To expect us to join others on their spiritual path or experience is an unrealistic thing to...

    "Uniting All Christians As One Body"

    How can you be so sure that the LDS church is built by God and not by man? How can you account for the church that is healthy and intact in countries such as China, Sudan? All these centuries the church was rebuilt by man? To me the mark of consistant proliferation and continual growth of...

    "Uniting All Christians As One Body"

    Sorry MormonFriend but that is not how Hebrews is interpreted in a typical view from the "Christian" (for lack of better word) Hebrews was written because the Jews were thinking of returning to Judism. The reference for milk in 5:12-16 is used in context that the believers spoken to were not...

    "Uniting All Christians As One Body"

    Ummm....no, not really, but that might be because it is getting late and my brain is basically short circuted. :yawn: I will try to understand this. Unfortunately, as I emailed twhit, I won't have time until tomorrow or Sunday to really respond. Sorry!!

    "Uniting All Christians As One Body"

    Not to sound rude but you must look at the three fingers pointing back when you point at all. Sincerity is not the mark of hipocrisy. It is just sincerity...that's all. As far as christians whose actions speak louder than words....yes and it is all part of God's big plan to show us that we...

    "Uniting All Christians As One Body"

    Second additon to the one above. This was my point. Emotions aside. It is an "intellectual appropriate" choice and can 100% be backed by scripture (the Bible) which is supposed to be compatible with the Book of Mormon, etc..but hard core facts is they aren't. I have seen a 4th generation...

    "Uniting All Christians As One Body"

    Arkanin. I think I understand what you are trying to get at. If you go by the websters dictonary Christianity: the religion derived from Jesus Christ, based on the Bible as sacred scripture, and professed by Eastern, Roman Catholic and Protestant bodies. But...(as if that was predictable :) )...

    "Uniting All Christians As One Body"

    As a Christian I find this remark to be a bit ?..can't find the right word. It is what makes the world go around. And you are complaining? "Set aside our differences in opinion" in favor of what? I don't completely get what you are trying to say here. Yes, I am a Christian. No, I would not...

    Can one have two religions?

    BTW..no, I do not share my Christian beliefs with any other 'religion'. If anyone sat down and disected each religion. Many, if not all, are incompatable...and Christianity is exclusive. To be true to the standard of TRUTH I could not live my life divided but instead commited to one way..with...

    Can one have two religions?

    Wow, and you seem quite rude, quite. It wouldn't be that you could be mistaking conviction as 'arrogant' ?? If anything you should appreciate others for their convictions because it is something they have likely spent some considerable time on and desire others to know. Now, perhaps I am...

    IF you found out that the bibble is wrong

    I confess that I haven't read EVERY single post before commenting so if it a repeat ..sorry! I've been a Christian my whole life. And it is the truth. But for arguement sake if I died and it wasn't THE way I wouldn't worry about it. Here is the reason why...ALL other faiths in the world...

    Two questions about abortion

    Basically, the general idea is that there are no 'absolutes' and therefore abortions could be justified in some situations? Or 'absolutes' would cause people to seek out an abortion simply because they couldn't have one legally..therefore we should make SOME sort of provision?

    Two questions about abortion

    I have worked in the medical field myself and would have to disagree to SOME extent. On a personal note having children was a difficult, dangerous and verifiably life long impact on our family. My first has Down Syndrome. My second was an incredibly dangerous pregnancy and which he was early...

    Peace be upon you....

    :cool: Thank you, thank you...hopefully not much will come out of all this (C250) but I guess we get to wait and see.....btw..what was this thread on? And what happened to Ibraim who started it?? I think we must have taken the ship on this one. Sorry folks! :blush: It was a little bunny trail.

    Peace be upon you....

    I don't think you can use 'stoning' and 'hate speech' in the same comparison. They are two unrelated issues. As far as the issues that apply to today I would say that I am hardly overreacting or not being 'rational, objective and reasonable' Am I saying to you that your position seems...

    Santa Clause

    I agree what a can of worms you have opened ! But here is my two cents worth. We do not celebrate Santa Clause at all. :cry: It took a long time for me to get to that point but a few years ago I eliminated all Santa's from the house. Why? Because I want my very young children to learn that...

    Peace be upon you....

    Sorry, didn't meant to imply that the Bible, Koran, or Torah would be singled out.. you are right that it is not in the law....however, as they are written against certain types of 'sexual orientation' it could well be used as 'hate' material. No, I don't think my examples of other countries...

    Peace be upon you....

    Well, two things I was thinking....:idea: 1) People are going to do what they will do. Anyone could use McBeth to advocate killing someone?? My point is that people could use any kind of book to twist into what they want. Why should the Bible or Koran or Torah get any particluar restriction...

    Peace be upon you....

    Well, I will do my best. http://www.family.org/cforum/fnif/news/a0028001.cfm It is from Focus on the Family. I don't know if by citing this resource if I'm going to get blasted but I know that this organization puts out credible resources. The law is C-250 and passed the House of Commons...
