But what do you think, Paratrooper, as a christian? Or Ale2999, do you think like Duke on the subject? Another thing, what do you all think about divorce? It's banned in the bible, isn't it? Anyway, what Duke said just underlines my point. How can there be any moral evolution or cultural evolution, if everything is set in stone (or in the bible)?<span id='postcolor'> Exactly. In the Bible, eating non-kosher food is a hell worthy sin. In the Bible (Leviticus), slavery is allowed, stating that one may own slaves from surrounding countries. There is so much crazy shit in the Bible that makes me seriously doubt the validity of the rest of it.<span id='postcolor'> The Bible is many books, a Christian believes in the teaching of Christ, the rest is of peripheral significance.

Friend in the sky says thiers a mine filed over where the tanks come in. So i walk on over, set up a defence, and watch time and again as the tanks roll by unharmed. Not once have they hit a mine.

Are all those re-works done by the hand of god too?

I have read the New Testament, and I have not been a very good Christian,but I do read my Bible almost everyday, and I pray everyday. I still need to get a better prayer time and spend more time with God, I am not perfect and I don't deserve salvation. Paratropper are you a Christian? For a while I thought you were, but then you said the Bible was not written by God so that got me worried.

Is that the only part of the bible that you have read? I find it funny that I as a sworn atheist have read the Bible twice, while you who believe it is the word of god have not read it. You say that you found your faith two years ago. If I was certain that the Bible was the absolute truth and the word of God then I can guarantee you that reading it would have been my first priority. I think I am starting to understand why you repeat yourself all the time. It is not because you think it is the only truth and wish to emphasise it; it is because apparently you are a man of limited knowledge on the subject.<span id='postcolor'> I agree with the heathen!

I have not read the whole Bible, but I am working on it. I was saved about 2 years ago, at a Power Team show. It was really great how all the Churches in the area came togather to help out and alot of people where saved from the gates of hell those days. I wish all of you could have been there. Homosexuality is wrong, there are no two ways about it. It is sadhow they have thos Churches specifically for homosexuals, might as well be called sin church, an oxymoron that is all to comon. I am not saying I am better than any body, cuase I aint, but the allowence of homosexual marriages is not a good thing for a church. I live in the the "Bible Belt" and I am a member of a Southern Baptist Church, and even some southern Baptist churches are falling away from the word of God, and yes take the word of God litteraly!!!!<span id='postcolor'> I suggest you read it again. The Arabs were invaders to the Middle East and North Africa about a thousand years later. The problem with taking the Bible literally is that it ISN'T the word of God. It is the words of men. God did not write the Bible!
