    Proof of Climate Change hoax

    Climate change is measurable, and real. It is at a rate orders of magnitude greater than humans have been able to measure thus far.

    So, what is racism?

    Racism is the erroneous belief that there are different human races, and that you are somehow privileged because you are a member of one of these imaginary races.

    The politics of shooters ... since it always gets politicized

    I live in Australia. We have gun control. We have gun control because a raving lunatic got hold of a gun. We now have gun control because an extreme right wing politician thought we should have gun control. That right wing politician (John Howard) did a first-class, world-class brilliant job of...

    How is Salvation, or anything you get from God, a "free gift" if our own will got it for us...?

    Or I could have used the /sarcasm tag. Also I could say the same back to you, or tell you where you can go. But I won't because, unlike some people, I'm not an aarrssee.

    How is Salvation, or anything you get from God, a "free gift" if our own will got it for us...?

    Wow, this is one of the most profound things I have ever read. This will keep me awake for ages. I have no idea how to answer this.

    How is Salvation, or anything you get from God, a "free gift" if our own will got it for us...?

    One more tip that almost no one knows about: When you use the "etc" you should always use a "." after it. For example: "There was all this stuff etc. there was a mess. But if the "etc" is at the end of a sentence, then do you double up or not? Is it "get or don't get, etc." or "get or don't get...

    How is Salvation, or anything you get from God, a "free gift" if our own will got it for us...?

    Ah, I think I get where you are coming from. God is omnipotent, therefore free will is an illusion. Am I right? If so then this is almost the opposite of your original position in this thread.

    How is Salvation, or anything you get from God, a "free gift" if our own will got it for us...?

    OK, let me try another way to make my point: Let's say my boat just sank. I can't swim very well, and I was stupid enough not to wear a life jacket. Then this large ship comes by. But because it's a large ship, it can't come close. Someone on the ship throws out a raft attached to the ship by a...

    How is Salvation, or anything you get from God, a "free gift" if our own will got it for us...?

    No, because regardless of what you did with the gift, it was a freely given gift. More importantly, it was a gift that you could not have acquired by yourself. So regardless of what "work" you reckon you did to get it, it is worth more than you could ever hope to give. Your choice didn't...

    Should the Fed have cut by 50bps?

    The higher the cut the better.

    How is Salvation, or anything you get from God, a "free gift" if our own will got it for us...?

    It's not "ect" it's "etc". Short for the Latin "et cetera", which means "and the rest". If you are going to use it, you should use it correctly. ect is short for "ElectroConvulsive Therapy", which I'm pretty sure isn't what you meant.

    How is Salvation, or anything you get from God, a "free gift" if our own will got it for us...?

    A free gift is simply a gift freely given. That doesn't mean that we don't have to do something to receive it. It's not about earning the gift - gifts are never earnt - it's about receiving the gift. I can choose not to receive that gift that my mother sent me. Because I don't like...

    How is Salvation, or anything you get from God, a "free gift" if our own will got it for us...?

    Salvation isn't free; it cost the life of the Son of God. If you don't feel the cost of that, then you need to re-evaluate the validity of your salvation.

    Is the progressive agenda bringing God's wrath onto the United States?

    That depends on what you mean by "the progressive agenda". To me a progressive agenda means progress! That means equal access to our common wealth, access to good and publicly funded healthcare, helping the poor, and welcoming the foreigner. All good Jesus stuff. If that is what you mean by "the...

    What Should Christians Do When There Are Sick...

    That sounds like a really interesting story. Please tell me more. I love this, totally agree. Great insight.

    What Should Christians Do When There Are Sick...

    If you are talking about a literal bathroom, then I very much doubt that God actually built it for you. I don't doubt that Got could have organised your affairs so that it got built, but that's not the same thing. Also health isn't the same as a bathroom. If it turns out that your faith isn't...

    Buzz Aldrin took communion on the Moon

    PS: The Moon isn't "outer space". One has to go much farther to reach outer space.

    Buzz Aldrin took communion on the Moon

    You don't reckon that taking communion matters? I think you have your priorities all wrong. You are a fool.
