Re: I need your help to become a stronger believer.

Thank you. I've read a good deal of the articles on the main page that I do enjoy. I'd say one thing in particular that bothers me is how reliable the gospel accounts are.

I need your help to become a stronger believer.

I have to admit, I have been reading a lot of things lately, and I feel like some kind of flip flopper. One minute I feel like I can be faithful and become a Christian, and then I read atheist message boards and revert back. Then I read other materials and switch back and feel better again. I really...

Re: A Dear Friend Thinks They Know The Date of Christ's Return

My friend listens to a radio station where they talk about the world ending on May 21st, 2011. This is absolute foolishness. Every thinking person knows that the world will end on December 21st, 2012. FL Lol, I know right? ;) I found the whole quoting the "corporate church" line to be esp...

Re: Near death experiences and Christianity

- NDE Near Death Experiences Well, to narrow it down more specifically, how can I serve a life to Christ if NDE accounts make me doubt any world religion is right since everyone seemingly gets a free pass to an afterlife? Before I answer question let me point to this website so you can get an idea ...

Re: Ghosts

There's quite an enormous difference between invisible radio waves (we can demonstrably transfer information via these) and infrared (we can see car thieves hiding inside dustbins), and EVPs. EVPs which are invariably fuzzy, show all the classic signs of pareidolia (can't hear anything the first ti...

Re: Near death experiences and Christianity

I apologize for not providing to you specific accounts, but what can one say about a suicide victim who goes to a heaven like place and feels nothing but passion and love, but does not see God or Jesus? Why does a Buddhist see Budha, why does a Hindu see krishna? If people of third world nations or ...

Re: Ghosts

Chance, what kinds of phrases or things did the spirits say to you in your recordings?

Re: Is Darwinism scientific or philosophical?

A common ancestor yes, but broken off from the chimpanzee family. Personally, I think trying to connect theistic evolution to human macro evolution is pulling for straws.

Re: Is Darwinism scientific or philosophical?

In my opinion, if the so called missing link that scientists say connect us to hominids, neanderthals, ect is found, would be a true disaster. If human macro evolution can truly be proven, then as far as I can conclude our beliefs were all wrong. Theistic evolution is not a logical answer to me, as ...

Re: Ghosts

Quite fascinating if all that you are saying is true, which I don't see why you'd blatantly lie to me as you don't really have anything to gain in doing so. What are some examples of things you have heard? What things have been said to you? I'm quite curious to hear what you have to say. I'm assumin...

Re: Ghosts

Part of the problem, chance, is that a lot of people write off ghosts/souls/spirits as superstitious nonsense without giving it an honest look. People think the investigations are staged, rigged or set up. This may or may not be the case it's quite difficult to verify the truth of the nature of this...

Re: Ghosts

Oh nothing is wrong with it at all chance. Personally, I'd really need to be there to see/hear for myself before I could give an honest judgment.

Re: Ghosts

I'd be even more impressed to actually see some kind of spirit, either with my eyes or to feel one make some kind of contact with my body. I want to think these people have some sort of basis in what they believe in, and that they aren't just superstitous.

Re: Ghosts

Definitely, I always wonder about those people who are mentally healthy yet make such claims. You wouldn't believe the stories I have read. Such documents saying that the Men in Black is a real agency, that aliens have reproduced among us, ect. I really am open to about anything with proper evidence...
