  • You are in my Prayers

    I read your article, ''What I've learned from debating religious people around the world'' with fascination. To provide you with some insight I am what is commonly called an evangelical Christian, but could not be accurately labeled as a full Calvinist. I try my best to communicate in a manner that saves others from perdition and I likewise strive ...

  • Supreme Court Justice Sotomayor -- Says Roe Is "Settled Law"

    All I need to know about today's U.S. Senate Nomination Hearing for Liberal New York City Feminist Sotomayor, is that she thinks the appalling pro-Abort ''Roe vs. Wade'' Supreme Court ''Decision'' of 1973, is ''Settled Law'' (her words.) Hispanic voters may be trending towards the Democratic Party side of the political ledger lately, and who ...

  • Who Do We Think We Are?

    David Plotz feels as if he HAS to believe in a God as described in the Old Testament and then work backwards to work out how to believe in a God that could be so cruel; otherwise his choices are to believe in Christ as the son of God or in ''some vague 'creator' who is not remotely attached to the events of the Bible...'' So what? The Bible was ...

  • Church Shopping

    Just like Paul Says in Timothy that people will be looking for someone to tickle their ears. With all that's going on, how can people be so blind, so much in denial? Is it fear of drastic change? or Maybe they will have to give up their petty little life in exchange for a glorious one? The Bible says also that people will be turning away from God ...

  • Re: why read rediculous jewish myths and folk tales ?

    Respectfully, the Bible hasn't caused problems. Foolish and greedy humans have been the ones causing problems. If you lived your life exactly according to the Bible's principles -- and I mean all of them, not just the ones that feel good or seem convenient at the time -- we'd be living in a very different world today. Ecclesiastes 8:9 says that ...

  • Good Book

    I think that your comments on the cultural relevance of the Bible to us are extremely relevant however your response to the nature of God and man's ability to understand him just cries out for you to read some Kierkegaard. You might like to try both ''Fear and Trembling'' - especially for the notion of faith as opposed to the ethical - and also ...

  • Fantastic article!

    Someone tell me why those in the USA who try so hard to get the 10 commandments posted all over in our public square and taught to our kids in school break so many of them trying to get that done? And also fight so hard to take money from the poor and middle class and put in the hands of the rich? And also to keep corporate greed-based health ...

  • Religion VS God

    The one major flaw in this study is that religion and God have absolutely nothing to do with one another. Instead of choosing random people and priming them with spiritual thoughts, instead go down to your local church and pick up a few ''religious'' people. Then you will see that religion does far more harm than good in a society. Spiritualism, ...

  • Professional Journalism

    I know you are professional journalists. A profession is a fancy Latin term for the way you express your belief in the one true God as you understand him. Mr. Webster describes profession as the act of taking the vows of a religious community, or: an act of openly declaring or publicly claiming a belief or faith: an avowed religious faith a: a ...

  • What the dems need to be talking about

    Mr. McCain says the reason he is running negative and false ads is that he did not get the debates he wants and the trip to Iraq with Senator Obama that he wants. That puts him in the same group with 2 year olds. Do you want a two year old to be president? It also says this is the way he is going to be with congress if he does get elected. That ...
