Re: Question of the Day

I don't know how matter first originated. Since you (theists) are claiming you DO know, it seems the onus is on you to prove your explanation. Of the number of hypotheses for the origin of all matter, I find a preexisting magical being powerful enough to cause everything else to come into existence...

Re: Selling Your Soul?

Hmmm... Selling your soul? I don't think that is possible in a literal sense. And really, what does Satan have to offer you that Christ does not? However, I guess you could "give" your soul to Satan simply by denying Christ and not living by his laws. If that were the case, I guess you co...

Re: Since...

In the truest sense perhaps not. But when one looks at the overwhelming evidence in favor of Christianity (historical, archeolog...
