    Gay Leaders--the Army v Boy Scouts

    I have been in Boy Scouts for the past 15 of my 19 years and I have been left alone with a leader other than my mom or dad countless times. I have yet to go through training as an adult leader, and i have no doubt that they train you not to be alone, but it happens all the time. How bout a...

    The Da Vincci Code

    For some good information on the facts proposed in this book you might want to check out "Holy Blood, Holy Grail" by Baigent, Lincoln, and Leigh or "The Messianic Legacy" by the same authors. I havent read them, but I checked them out after reading this book--looked a little boring though for my...

    What does the US "Pledge of Allegiance" mean to you?

    We should all have an issue with athiests. Not to be underminding but arent we here to spread the word of God and bring the masses to the church?

    Catholic Communion--Catholics Only???

    Everyone must interpret the Bible the way they feel it is meant by. However, I cannot see how we as Christians can come to the point where we must split ways and form new congregations all the time. If we all believe in Ephesians 4:5 we should be able to overcome our differences and join...

    Baptism--Which way is the right way?

    But if i have already been baptized and then made the choice to accept Jesus Christ as my personal savior do i have to reaffirm that faith--or is it already in stone and therefore no need to be rebatized? I guess it couldnt hurt either way, but i never have been faced with such a big dilema in...

    Catholic Communion--Catholics Only???

    The Trinity is infalliable and all knowing, but we as fallen beings are falable and can never reaching the knowledge of God.

    Baptism--Which way is the right way?

    I agree with Rechtgläubig. I believe so far in my search that it is an internal commitment to Christ and the method is regardless as long as the intentions are those set forth by God.

    Catholic Communion--Catholics Only???

    Thank you ps189 for your insights. I am on this "tour" to find where I belong in the body of Christ and I am looking at catholicism among other denominations. You seem to be well read and very knowledgable in this area. Should I in the future then simily remain seated and when the pew fills back...

    Baptism--Which way is the right way?

    There are several types of baptisms performed and at different times of ones life. I as a Methodist was baptized as an infant using sprinkling. I am contemplating being rebaptized through full emersion. What are your thoughts on the different ways of baptism and is rebaptism necessary as an adult?

    Catholic Communion--Catholics Only???

    The reason for my line of questioning is that last sunday i attended a catholic mass and partook of communion. i had always participated in the other protestant churches and out of stupidity felt it would be no different at a catholic mass. Is my taking part of this communion meaning that i have...

    Gay Leaders--the Army v Boy Scouts

    When I say "News media does a pretty good job of reporting these kinds of things" I dont mean that they are not stereotypical, but they do report more men then women. I will try to find some actual numbers for you. You cant always believe what you hear in the news, I know.

    Gay Leaders--the Army v Boy Scouts

    Yes. I dont support homosexuality and do not want my son to be around them. I again have no problem with homosexuality but agree with John Locke that we are products of our experiences and I will not allow the influence of homosexuality to be around my son. As for numbers, i watch the news, and...

    subjective morality

    What right does God have to tell us what to do? He has all rights--He created us, we are His sons and daughters, he has the key to our eternity. I will lend to the fact that there is some objective morality. If someone kills someone--that is morally wrong. Perhps the 10 Commandments can account...

    Gay Leaders--the Army v Boy Scouts

    Yes-i would. I have no experience with this, but I would believe that the sacres left on a kid being sexually assaulted by a man at that age wouold be severly worse then that of a woman. I also believe that women are a kinder gender and are less likely to attempt sexual abuse on a small child. I...

    subjective morality

    Subjective. As a stetch--a very long stratch--God created us all in His image. When Adam and Eve ate of the fruit we have the fall of man and the Devils rise. When this occured our "oneness" with God left us and we became individual thinkers, therefore, we all have different views on the worlds...

    Gay Leaders--the Army v Boy Scouts

    Even so--the risk of sexual abuse is still high enough to keep me from allowing my own son to be in that kind of situation at a young age. I have no problem with homosexuality, but do not support their lifestyle.

    Gay Leaders--the Army v Boy Scouts

    What are your opinions on gay military leaders and boy scout leaders? As a former boy scout and now leader, i dont believe it is safe for homosexuals to be involved in that kind of organization. There are too many times were boys are alone with leaders and the opportunities are too great to be...
