Are These People Christians

Don't know, Chris. Why can two blonde haired, blue eyed people have a child with dark hair and eyes? Recessive traits and the small chance the exhibit themselves over the dominant.

Of course, as Bob and I have discussed, evolution is currently not proveable. However, as with the earth quake monsters, I'll hold out for definitive proof. On a long enough time line, all wives tales are discredited.

I'll hold out for that, thouhg I'll probably never see it, and just follow the most logical path(to me). Like Plato asserted before drinking the hemlock, there is nothing to fear in death. If I'm right, I'll die and there will be nothing. If I'm wrong, I'll die and live an afterlife. Win-win situation. BTW- I have been confirmed, so I've got my bases covered. ;)

Bob, I hope to hell that evolution is the case because I don't want to be as inbred as the rest of this town. ;) Plus, if I don't shave, I do resemble an ape much more so than a human, being that I'm covered in hair from head to foot and my beard grows up to my eyes. :D
 
Grizzly, I dont know why, but I cant stop laughing. I think all my first cousins are kind of ugly. Maybie its my body's way of keeping me from fucking one of them!

Hey you can throw some of that my way. I'm as bare as a baby's butt. I can barely grow a beard. I read a thread about hair removal yesterday and laughed. I shave a little patch in the middle of my chest thats about it.
 
Sure, you can have my back hair. I've got plenty of it and, if I don't shave it for a couple of months, you can braid it.

Got any head hair to spare? Mine's bee leaving me since I was 17. :D
 
Well, just to throw a wrench in the mix, there is no evidence that Christians are not allowed to be homosexuals. All of the scripture regarding homosexuality is found in the Old Testament (there might be a little in Romans, but that refers to marriage I believe), and as Gentiles, we dont have to follow the Jewish law. Thats why Christianity is so different from Judaism. (As far as eating, sacrifice, etc.) After Jesus died, the Apostles and early Church leaders had to vote (literally) on what parts of the Jewish law Gentiles have to follow. So many of the rules followed by Gentile Christians are not rules given by God, but instead rules voted upon by fallable man (Gambling, for example). Just a little interesting point.

P.S. Socrates drank the hemlock, not Plato :)
 
Damnit, Mark, what'd you have to go and bring up the Socrates thing for? Too much fast typing for me. You're right, it was Socrates and Plato wrote the story. Ooops. :(

I thought about bringing that up before, too. Has anyone besides me noticed that there are two distinct Gods in the Bible? The first is a real, hellfire and brimstone cocksucker(follow my rules or...YOU DIE) and the second is a peace and love hippie.
 
Both "Gods" are about love. The difference being that before the cricifixion of Jesus, he directly saw our sins and horrible actions. There was major disappointment becaue of that. Now, Jesus is our intermediary who, in some sense, are the sin-filtering sunglasses that God wears.

Actually MK 1 Corinthians 6:9,10 lists various "unrighteous" acts. Included in that list is "men who lie with men" that passage also says that the ones practicing those things listed will not inherit God's kingdom.
For the record I do not advocate the persecution of "sinners" of any variety.

With regard to the "voting" you mentioned, are you refering to the Nicene Creed (c. 325CE)?

You are correct, as when I read the post above, I may have been unclear. What I meant to say is that Jesus never commented on homosexuality, only man did (in this case Paul, who never met Jesus during his life).

I am not saying homosexuality isnt a sin. (just to clarify).

Also, I am in the same boat with you Grizzly. There does seem to be a great difference in personality between the Old Testament and New Testament God.

I consider myself a Christian, but ONLY in the sense that I believe Jesus Christ was one of God's Children and that Jesus offers salvation through his Word.

P.S. No, I was referring to the "Jerusalem Council." It was about 44ish A.D.
 
On a side note:

How many people on this board believe the Bible is the infallible word of God himself? (i.e. It is never wrong, never inaccurate, and everything literally happened, such as the Noah Flood and Parting of the Red Sea). I am just curious.

A recent study showed that like 60something percent of Christians felt the Bible was literally true, which shocked some experts. They thought the number would be much lower.
