Re: My issue with religon
The most imporant things, in my view are #s 3 and 4. Force feeding religion on someone never works, it has to be their personal choice. Christians do works to show the Love of God to the world, they are the light and salt of the world. The worst thing a Christian can do is try to Convert someone, an...

Christians and the Media
The media is all about reporting stories to sell, and the topic of Christanity is one of the big ones. It seems new finds, or theories are constantly trying to disprove Christanity. Stories by archeologists or Scientists who let in more biase than fact, seem to be big for skeptics. It is important t...

Re: Another Doubting Christian
My faith in God does not depend on Evolution, whether true or false. I question why God would use Evolution; when he could have just as easily created man as described in Genesis. There is no General conflict between theism and evolution, But I have researched both sides, and I have found my view fo...

Re: Does Mitt Romney Have a chance at becoming president?
Oh yes, I have looked into Mormons. I was at a loss for words when it studied it. I was just curious, I don't know if My Lutheran Church members will vote for Romney or not, but the my general thinking is that Evangelical Christians will be less likley to vote for him. Hopefully we won't have to dea...

Re: lutheran changing over time???
Luther was a doctor, I forget of what, but he was brought up Catholic, and began to search the scriptures and found out that many of the Catholic practices going on then didn't come from Scripture. Lutherans are actually somewhat like Catholics, I have a Catholic friend, and I tell him about what we...

Re: My issue with religon
That is the major problem with many Christians; From the biblical standpoint we see what happens to those who practice hypocrisy: Matthew 25:31-46, (the sheep and the goats) The point that Christians miss is that its all to easy to judge others, yet we are called to examin ourselves. Matthew 7-1-5 t...

Re: Does Mitt Romney Have a chance at becoming president?
I did see the issue of Romney being to liberal to run as a Republican; But I think that a major roadblock He'll face is his Religion, whether or not the majority of Christian's would vote him in. Will Christian Americans vote for Romney or Obama? This may have a big impact on the election, this is g...

Re: lutheran changing over time???
Remember Martin Luther was a Catholic; his views were constantly changing, for example he talked about purgatory, then later denies it exists. Martin Luther never wanted his followers to be called "Lutherans". His views changed through time, he started the reformation by trying to reform s...

Does Mitt Romney Have a chance at becoming president?
I'm just curious to see how many are in support of Mitt Romney this November. For some his Mormon views are a big problem, others maybe how much money he makes, and if he will focus on middle class Americans. I have a feeling there's going to be a lot of Mud slinging in these campagin adds that will...

Re: Obama's "evolved" feelings about Gay marriage
I see your point, generally it has been accepted that Gays can to be together, and the issure of marriage is becoming bigger and bigger. This is the reason we are not a theocracy, issues like this would not be discussable. This is my position on the issue, This is not a popular one but I stick to wh...

Re: Another Doubting Christian
For evolutionists they have Darwin to thank, but their arguments are pretty refutable. First Think of the entire universe: There was not one thing in the beginnig that would have caused a big bang. But we turn to the question of dead materials becoming living, then the entier long history of evolvin...

Re: Socialism
Look what happens to socialist countries; Is it fair that a fast food worker would make the same as a doctor? As for what Jesus said, I don't think he had political motives behind what he said, remeber he said 'Give unto Ceasars the things that are Ceasars and to God what is God's' The soviet Union ...

Re: Obama's "evolved" feelings about Gay marriage
No, I'm not saying to ban all religions at all, for Christians we need to base our views on the Bible, yet we are moving far away from that. As for north Carolina, we need to follow it's stand on Gay marriage. Our Country was found on Christian beliefs, to mandate Citizen to become a christian would...

Obama's "evolved" feelings about Gay marriage
Obama's new stand on Gay marriage, now he is for it, other times he said his feelings about are evolving. This is just another political move on his part, getting closer to November elections he is scared he will lose. Certainly his preformance as president couldn't win the re-election, putting our ...

Re: Not eyewitness
We can rely on the oral Histories, and written accounts that are in the new testament, the entire old testament was memorized by the scribes, including those who constantly persecuted Jesus; they kept the law, which they would ofter say when accusing him, like "its not lawful..." they woul...
