    Religion of Peace

    How can you say this with such certainty when you have no means of validating it? Anyone here could just as easily say the same about Christianity, Atheism, Hinduism, Paganism, Pantheism, or Deism, but it would prove nothing. Screaming an opinion that is not backed by any tangible or logical...

    What do you think of Pat Robertson?

    What a horrible person. It really speaks volumes that this lunatic is one of Christianity's top modern spokesmen. I really don't see what any Christians find valuble about this man.

    Should the U.S. disarm itself and no longer maintain a military?

    "'In God We Trust' in trust is on our money, right where Jesus would want it."

    Does the bible condone slavery?

    I really wouldn't be surprized. It seems like Christians around here have no problem stretching and distorting the Bible in order to believe in some sort of diluted and cushioned version of Yaweh, a version that is only sustainable through precariously selective reading.

    Don't like a cartoon? Burn down embassies.

    Also, it speaks volumes to see so many repugnant zealots running around torching government buildings in response to a newspaper that is privately run. The Danish government officials in Syria have absolutely no bearing on which cartoons are published in the newspaper, and yet the embassies have...

    Blair-Bush deal before Iraq war revealed in secret memo

    Everytime I check the news, my dream to move to New Zealand is cemented.

    should we have the draft again

    If the draft was reinstated, then the repercussions would tear any unity left in this nation apart. With current support for the war tepid at best, a draft would throw the nation's political arena into chaos. The war looks bad enough to Americans when it is only a story in the news taking place...

    St. Augustine's take on Creationism

    This thread is a blinding firestorm of irony.

    Leaving Christianity

    Cassi, I know I have already talked to you about this on the other forum, but I wish you happiness, whatever path you choose to walk. Remember that when the more zealous on this forum try to sway you to their opinions, always be faithful to yourself. Infidelity does not consist in believing, or...

    U.S. spying reportedly snagged some domestic ONLY calls

    Our government also needs to follow the rules layed down by the Constitution. The fact that 'we are at war' does not give the government the ability to subvert our rights in order to 'protect' us. It would indeed be ironic if, in the name of national defense, we would sanction the subversion of...

    Anti-Christmas votes

    I agree, with the state of the world today, you would think that they would have more important things to argue about. What a waste of time and money.

    Pat Robertson?!?!

    I regard Robertson as a sanctimonious and unctuous crackpot.

    Only at the Pat Robertson University of Lunacy

    I pity these people. Why would you ever want to go to a college like this?

    It sure looks like that is the case.

    Book of Numbers is..... Shockingly scary

    Either way, at one point, your God's will consisted of murder, slavery, genocide and rape. I am talking about the God who proclaimed the law. I am not picking them out individually or unfairly. If you took the time to actually read these quotes in context, you would see that their...

    Book of Numbers is..... Shockingly scary

    You are perfectly happy that your 'God' commands murder, slavery, genocide and rape? Imagine if this being was a human. He would rank among the most detestable war criminals of all time, and you elevate him to the statis of perfection? I will be among the first to admit that I am not perfect...
