    Something's Bothering Me...

    I asked this question in the feedback section but I got no reply. I'm just wondering, who has the vote on what topic is considered "controversial" on here? Isn't there some theological bias here? I think it's unfair to have some views deemed "controversial" when maybe even most people do agree...

    Why was Eve not given a name until after the Fall?

    Something I noticed was that Adam was named right away, but Eve was just called "the woman". From however long it was between Eve's creation to the Fall (assuming you take Genesis as literal), Eve was just called "the woman". Why? Is it yet another example of the Bible seeming to see men as...

    If God asked you to kill someone from another group, would you?

    "Never truly saved?"

    I feel seriously bugged by this (among other things). Some say that if you turn away from the faith, then you were "never truly saved" or "weren't really Christian/were just pretending". How is that fair? Saying someone who honestly seeks answers, doesn't find them in Christ, and leaves the...

    Why fear questions?

    As exemplified by conversations I've had on a few threads, it seems that a lot of times when I or others ask questions, even hypothetical ones, the questions are either dodged, ignored, or given responses similar to "His ways are not our ways" or "it's bad to question things". So I ask... why...
