just don't understand the amount of christian abuse on this forum.... i'm not a christian but even i understand it from their point of view.... their religion is based on faith!!!
all these non believers coming up with all these scientific and in depth questions trying to catch out the christian belief... don't you get it??? religion is not based on science or solid fact, it is a feeling of what is right.... no amount of difficult questions or scientific fact are going to diminish that feeling. whatever you come up with, they will just come back with quotes from the bible that, to a christian, holds more fact than any science lab. why are so many people on here trying to devalue or discredit christianity, does is hold any less weight than your beliefs?
if a belief in god is based on proof, it is no longer based on faith....
i say leave the christians alone and stop blaming their god for all this hardship and death in the world. if your belief belongs to the world of science, you can blame that instead, it has still to come up with a cure for cancer and aids

Hosea 4:6 "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge"
2 Chronicles 7:14
"If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land."

ANYBODY stupid enough to be older than 8 years of age and still believing in gods, fairies, garden gnomes and ghosts deserves to have the piss taken out of them.
Originally posted by PureRWandBNo, you're wrong. The wall of separation is designed to keep government out of the churches AND to keep the churches out of the government. It works both ways, with neither interfering with the affairs of the other. Perhaps you should spend less time at disreputable sites, like beliefnet.com.

Originally posted by rwingettIn general, Christians do agree with the separation of church and state. I am a Christian, I do not think the queen should be the the head of the church of England. Do some reading on the Scottish National Covenant of 1638. Many Christians in Scotland died for the cause of separating church and state, that is why the two are separate in Scotland. If that is your justification for abusing Christianity then I suggest that it is merely through ignorance.

Originally posted by princeoforangeYour ignorance of American evangelism is apparent. Perhaps you have a more enlightened breed of christians in your small part of the world, but there are a sizable number of christians here who would like nothing better than to make this country a christian nation. This growing menace will not wither away of its own accord, but must be vigilantly combated at every step.

Originally posted by rwingettBeing a Christian nation is not the same as amalgamation of church and state. The first is eminently beneficial, the second is not right.
