Yet so many will not listen..

I would say the reason most don't believe is because of the T.V evengelists. As with anything, the phonies get the publicity and give everyone one else a bad name. I always say god can heal. god can use anyone for gods purpose. god even used a jackass (if you believe the bible) to get the message out. But I question anyone who claims to be a healer...only god can heal. And god may only use a person once and never again, because that person is handy. But no one heals...sorry, just my opinion

here is my thing with the Christianity. if you have a son or daughter and they totally disown you go against everything you tell them to do would you want them to spend the rest of eternity in hell?

if everything is gods will then why do we have to pray for the sick and dying i mean if god wants them to live he will make him better on there on its kinda selfish of us to ask god to change his plans for the billions of ppl in the world cause we wont or dog to live a long and fruitful life or we want a hot date with a person that doesnt give two shits about us

I don't think so Crotalus....it's still known as the Theory of Evolution...theory, no matter how probable, is not fact...

And people aren't necessarily *ignorant* simply because the don't agree with commonly accepted *theories*....

Nor simply because *you* say so!

with all due respect... athiests are evil because they dont believe in god???

Who said anything about chance ??? by the way mike the evolution of the eye has been charted back to the point where it was just a patch of light sensitive skin , and I hardly think that an intelligent design in indicated by the naturally accruing flaw in the eye



Your grasping at straws

Albert Einstein
[1879-1955] German born American threoretical physicist
From a correspondence between Ensign Guy H. Raner and Albert Einstein in 1945 and 1949. Einstein responds to the accusation that he was converted by a Jesuit priest: "I have never talked to a Jesuit prest in my life. I am astonished by the audacity to tell such lies about me. From the viewpoint of a Jesuit priest I am, of course, and have always been an atheist." "I have repeatedly said that in my opinion the idea of a personal God is a childlike one.You may call me an agnostic, but I do not share the crusading spirit of the professional atheist whose fervor is mostly due to a painful act of liberation from religious indoctrination received in youth."

You clearly do not understand scientific thinking,

and please remember Aries that you are the one who ignores evidence to suite your own beliefs

To be honest, I am not surprised you are confused, going slow with no attachments?

Well, again, another cliche, 'going slow' If two people meet and there is some chemsitry there, then it will happen, getting to know each other happens, depending on the level of contact, you can talk and talk.

Having a physical relationship will change the dynamics of the relationship, it does. And that is what I look at, if after becoming physical, a man changes, towards me, then I will question why. If he remains the same, but feels closer to me then great.

The no attachment confuses me. If they say they do not want an enotional attachment, then to me they perhaps want nothing more than a physical one.

So perhaps, try to avoid the sex intially, get to know her, see how it goes, and then go to the physical side of things, that is what I would prefer as a woman.

Try getting to know a person emotionally first, then the rest will be easier to achieve.

As much as I love intimacy, with a person that I am getting to know, I prefer to leave that until I am sure.

But if I feel close and comfortable with a person, then the physical aspect should come naturally.

We all seem to be in a rush to have sex, in the hope it will bond us, and when it does not, we feel let down.

Ok, im new to dating since I was married for 17 yrs and now divorced. My problem is this. Women want to take it slow and get to know me but dont want any attachments. Im good with that. I guess the problem is when you are trying to get to know someone, that means conversation, dating, having fun with the woman so why do I feel like im being a bother. Especially after sex. Its like they change. The confution is this. Do they just want the sex and nothing else or am I being to personal and wanting to get to know them but to fast. Im confused. Im not a BSer and believe in being honest. Im no mind reader and cant know what is on their mind unless they say so.

Is taking a stand without standing for something the same of not taking a stand at all?

If all you do is argue against something, and you do not have something you are arguing for, doesn't that mean you have little argument in the first place?

I feel bad for those who base their life on the foundations of modern science. Just as Bnatural loves to educate us to the fact that science is being rewritten over and over again. 50 years from now, everything we thought science has shown us will be turned upside down. The science books have one constant. They are constantly proven wrong. They call it updated.

I love hearing people who have haven't finished their second semester in college call men and women, with multiple Ph.D.s, idiots. People of faith think just as much as people who think they have to have everything explained to them scientifically.

We could fill these pages with Tera-bites of scientific evidence for Evolution and Creation. Where would that get us?

I find it humorous when people make statements based on something they heard that just sounded good to them. They make these claims without knowing what in the world they are talking about.

Even if evolution could be proven 100% right (which it cannot), and even if Science could explain away God (which it cannot), no argument could change what I experienced when I asked Jesus to save me.

I cannot prove to you anything to satisfy ALL of your arguments. But I can say this...

"One thing I know: that though I was blind, now I see." John 9:25b

I feel sorry for those who only have arguments.

'So if science says you have no brain, how can we trust your lectures, sir?'

Now the room is silent. The professor just stares at the student, his face unreadable.

Finally, after what seems an eternity, the old man answers. 'I guess you'll have to take them on faith.'

'Now, you accept that there is faith, and, in fact, faith exists with life,' the student continues. 'Now, sir, is there such a thing as evil?'

Now uncertain, the professor responds, 'Of course, there is. We see it everyday. It is in the daily example of man's inhumanity to man. It is in the multitude of crime and violence everywhere in the world. These manifestations are nothing else but evil.'

To this the student replied, 'Evil does not exist sir, or at least it does not exist unto itself. Evil is simply the absence of God. It is just like darkness and cold, a word that man has created to describe the absence of God. God did not create evil. Evil is the result of what happens when man does not have God's love present in his heart. It's like the cold that comes when there is no heat or the darkness that comes when there is no light.'

The professor sat down.

When women are looking for a man to marry , Not date . What matters most ?

Yes I agree...I hope now they upgrade the charges to murder as she passed away yesterday or the day before...that was another contentious issue that he was only charged with assault causing bodily harm I believe and not attempted murder...most likely because of the perspective he didn't know what he was doing...yet he was also charged with arson...which is a crime that says he did know what he was doing because for arson he would have had to form intent so it's pretty contradictory all around!!!!!!!!!

And people rely on you to defend them

Ps

90% of pmt is caused by low zinc leviels

If he knew enough to get himself out of that house or he would burn to death...then he knew had his wits about him enough to know what he did was wrong as far as I'm concerned and yes...domestic violence is the issue here not bi-polar...the fact that he was abusive is what made him dangerous!!!!!!!!

"Right". Tell me one criminal who is "sane"? Maybe we should close down all the prison and just treat all the nutty in hospitals?

This whole categorization of sanity is a big bs. If you open the psychiatric diagnostic book you will find that per that, nobody is sane. Including you and me. And irresponsible people use that as a justification. All this does it takes away responsibility.

Everybody IS responsible for his actions. Even a mice knows if it hears my steps, he better runs, a simplifed version of "action-consequences". If one can't accept that he is causing things, why bother at all with life?

I didn't get right the quoting things, so here is the thing that I was replying to:

"If the guy was not responsible for his actions threw mental illness he was not responsible full stop"

If the guy was not responsible for his actions threw mental illness he was not responsible full stop

"What if's" are always useless. We are always doing the best we can in any given situation at any given time. If we could have or would have done anything different, we would nust have done it!

Self recrimination is always useless!

I do not think it will be different this time.

I just know how not to behave in a relationship.

The rest is easy.
