    This has been bothering me lately, some theological questions.

    Because they/we are blind. If we love God as we claim to (and your question says "us," which I assume means Christians and not just humans), there would be no reason to defy Him short of obliviousness. Perhaps we even choose (consciously or not) not to see. I don't know if human effort or human...

    Why does God give insurance rather than actual protection?

    I agree with you as far as that Eden was vastly preferable to the world we live in now (not that i was there, but it must have been). But doesn't it strike you as kinda selfish, then, being able to hypothetically live with yourself being the only person alive (or one of the only people, if God...

    Why does God give insurance rather than actual protection?

    All humans suffer as a result of the fall. Do you mean that you need God to insulate you from suffering as a special case (while all the other humans around you would still suffer)? Or would you only be capable of loving God had we never lost the right to live in Eden?

    The "Guilty" or "Not Guilty" Game!

    Guilty (but who wouldn't be?) Ever gotten a traffic ticket?

    This or That??? (2)

    (no strong opinion either way, but since someone has to choose...) Not? Sea or Ocean?

    Is this God's plan for my life, or Satan's plan? How do I tell?

    I'm pretty clearly biased here, but here are my thoughts: A side issue: How does Leviticus 20:16 speak against the types of games you play? As far as I know, there is no inappropriate behavior with animals in any of the games you've mentioned... (Admittedly, sometimes, the Bible can't speak directly towards a modern...

    I know this is a stupid question. But how do you properly pray?

    Thanks, Love, for posting this for both of us. Just for the record, though, the smiting part is inaccurate - it's more of me being exasperated that my thoughts keep going towards guilt and therefore most of my prayer life ends up being reassurance that He forgives me and is glad I'm talking to...

    If abortion is murder...

    This is correct: there are 2 or 3 people culpable in an abortion. One is the doctor; one is the mother; and one could be the dad, but not necessarily, because the mother might not have involved him. As far as abortion-murders being punishable by death, the way our justice system works in the...

    Does anyone else have this addiction?

    I also wouldn't say I agree with the dude 100%. You're moving in the right direction. His words only apply to you as a warning. If you stopped caring about paying it off, that would be bad.

    The fear of God?

    Why would anyone be so adamant about His non-existence? Unless, if - by some tiny fluke - He really did exist, the atheist knows he/she is in for eternal torture.

    I'm in love with a mentally unwell man and don't know what to do

    I've read the whole thread so far, and something no one has mentioned yet... you mean Borderline Personality Disorder, not Bipolar Disorder, right? As the thread went on, his problem sounds more like Borderline, and although "BPD" has been used as a short form of both disorders, Borderline is...

    Creativity and Theft

    Assuming you're not stealing the objects you've been hired to sell, whether using work time for other activities might not be that big of a deal. My sister, during high school and college, worked in a convenience store. She mopped the floors, sold food and lottery tickets, stocked the shelves...

    Are there people who seemingly got away with their sin?

    And had to watch the destruction of the people he allowed and enabled to turn away from God, in Exodus 32:25-28 . "And he said unto them, Thus saith Jehovah, the God of Israel, Put ye every man his sword upon his thigh, and go to and fro from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man...

    How Inclusive Should Church Be?

    You're not wrong. He's not condemning her, no. But he is bringing her sin (which sounds like cohabitation or previous unlawful divorces) to her attention to give her the chance to repent. And, from what I remember of that story, it's implied that she does repent, since she helps bring many...
