- mamacags, RaptureReady


"I've said it before and I'll say it again: It'll incite about as much anti-Semitic violence as Pearl Harbor incited anti-Japanese violence."
- Jiggy37, RaptureReady


"Oh and the Jews. The day the Jews realise what they have done and admit to it. The day we see revival in the Jewish faith turn to Christian....."
- Kamakiri, RaptureReady


"If there had been no God, there would be no life. No you or me. The reason why you don't believe in God is because you don't believe in him."
- Justin Hui, Architecture Students Discussion Forum


"It would be hard to imagine a more inverted view of reality. *Evolution* (!?) is a compelling explanation for biology? You've got to be kidding. Have you been living in a cave or something?"
- Charles Darwin, Internet Infidels


"I can not think of anything more indecent than the homosexual lifestyle. It is a perversion that causes child molestation. Just look at all the priests that the news was saying molested childeren."
- JEREMY O'ROURKE, ChristianForums


"Actually if a human next to a dinosaur enveloped in ice was ever found, it probably would disapear and never reach the public eye. Do you how much evidence has been destroyed and taken by the government and evolutionists."
- messenjaH, EvC Forum


"Would you please stop trying to use my age [14] against me... I have read testimonies by creationists (not Hovind) that say they found evidence that would null evolution, but that evidence was either stolen, taken away by government or the owners of the property where the evidence was found or the owners were forced to dispose of the evidence."
- messenjaH, EvC Forum


"What do you mean by Mythology? I mean the Nation of Israel existing now is proof of Bible Prophecy happening."
- billiefan2000, JREF Forums


"I am curious what will all of you guys do when the rapture happens and you Christian Friends and Family and Neighbors and Co-Workers are missing."
- billiefan2000, JREF Forums


"The A[nti]C[hrist] will come out of the REVIVED ROMAN EMPIRE or what we call today the EUROPEAN UNION."
- billiefan2000, JREF Forums


"I am curious,will you be saying when the Rapture does happen or will have thought your stance on there be no Rapture in the next 10 years happening was wrong."
- billiefan2000, JREF Forums


"Why does the USA support Israel and also,why unless there is a Spirtual Side to the fight between Muslims and Jews,why is there so many people who want Israel and the Jewish People gone?"
- billiefan2000, JREF Forums


"I know most Conservative Jews and Christians support Israel,but I wonder why Liberals seem to hate Israel,or it LIBERALS ARE A BUNCH OF BIGOTED FREEDOM HATERS. "
- billiefan2000, JREF Forums


"Name me one Liberty that has been taken away by Conservatives. Name me one and show me documented evidence of it and not the rAmblings of the AMERICAN COMMUNIST LOVERS UNION or ACLU as the Useful Idiots to the ACLU call it."
- billiefan2000, JREF Forums


"You mean like the Radical gay Rights Fanatics who try to convert Churches into Lukewarm Chuches (i.e. METHODISTS and ANGLICANS)"
- billiefan2000, JREF Forums


"If you arent going to be here,the [Rapture] Insurance either way wont be of any use. Cause the Rapture is going to end up bankrupting the Insurance Companies,so it wont make no never mind anyway."

"I will take that bet and I bet you will be ponying up the money if you are wrong(oh,wait I wont be here after the Rapture)"

"if the Rapture is a bunch of hogwash,why are you so hellbent on shutting up this discussion."

"When the Rapture does happen,dont be asking for evidence after that cause Millions of People Vanishing off the Face of the Earth in a Twinking of a Eye will be your proof then."
- billiefan2000, JREF Forums


"Humans are sinners and monsters from the get-go and that is why unless we turn to JESUS CHRIST who died on a cross 2000 years ago to pay for our sins,we will always be monsters and evil."
- billiefan2000, JREF Forums


[After being asked, sarcastically, to sign over his stuff in case of Rapture] "But why should I give you or any of the other Atheists here my stuff then? I thought you people didnt believe in GOD or the rapture. I think you guys do believe the Rapture will happen,cause after all,why would you be asking someone who is going in the rapture to give away his stuff then?"
- billiefan2000, JREF Forums


"WHAT I MEAN BY LUKEWARM CHRISTIAN IS: Someone who claims to be a Christian but dont believe JESUS is the MESSIAH. Many of those Christians are called the Episcopal and Methodist Churches."
- billiefan2000, JREF Forums


"I'm sick of seeing Christians defend ACLU and the idotic mantra Separation of church and state. This garbage is inviting the persecution of Christians and only the spiritually blind and/or Biblically illiterate are unable to see that."
- Blessedx4, RaptureReady


"But you forget that [Roman] Lions wouldnt torture Christians as slowly and painfully as the ACLU Communist Lawyers do."
- billiefan2000, RaptureReady


"The ACLU and in particular the one run here in Nebraska is a Mafia Style Orginzation that answers to no one and seems to scare people much like Jesse Jackson's racist groups shakedown money out of companies."
- billiefan2000, RaptureReady


"Im a tired of this homosexuality craze in the US at the momment. Everywhere you look its homo this, homo that, It really disgusts me. On tv, gay tv shows everywhere. In the news, gay, gay, gay. It has only gotten worse sense the sodemy laws were downed."
- JRN, ABC Bodybuilding Forum


"'Mindless slaughter', you say? Do you have a direct hot-line into God's mind? Do you know His purpose and reasons?"
- Jorge, Internet Infidels


"I know your type and a mountain falling on your head wouldn't convince you. Just remember, if you can, the following word : 'Ooops'. It'll be most appropriate for you on a certain special Day."
- Jorge, Internet Infidels


"Likewise, the god of this world, satan and his minions, speak to you, but you mistake those voices for your own thoughts."
- dmac5, Theology Forums


"Loud homosexuals (the ones who will be doing the adopting more than likely) seem to be strangely obsessed with defining themselves sexually."
- Elric, BlizzForums


"Similarly, even if you understood the details of how the gods control the weather, you still couldn't know what the weather would be without knowing the laws of meteorology, because other factors than the gods' actions are involved."
- Ojuice5001, Internet Infidels


"Just one of the latest in an already growing wave of gay TV propaganda.... Another tool to help brainwash the weak minded into buying into the gay agenda....."
- Duster1970, RaptureReady


"I am sick to death of the all the 'gay this' and 'gay that' in the news and on t.v. It's everywhere you go! It's like blatant sex and promiscuous sex on t.v and the movies isn't enough? So, when are they going to start pushing beastiality as the next t.v. fad?"
- Rebecki, RaptureReady


"Watch your schools very carefully. The gay agenda is trying to focus on the children with their propoganda. It has been creeping into more and more public schools, often without parental knowledge. I am sure it will be greatly on the increase now."
- mlmiller11, RaptureReady


"And Phillip is not a gay name! Phillip was one of the disciples. How dare they appropriate his name for a gay guy [on TV]! "
- Diane 1611, RaptureReady


"I really can't blame you. It is an affect of sin that is the reason you can't understand the scriptures, that is until the day God finally reveals their truths to you."
- Bro. James Reed, BaptistBoard


[Replying to 'would you object to a celibate homosexual minister?']
"Absolutely I would! He would get a one way Greyhound bus ticket to the middle of nowhere!"
- blackbird, BaptistBoard


"Just don't send him to US Blackbird! No way would I EVER EVER EVER tolerate a homosexual minister! I'd leave that church so fast!"
- dianetavegia, BaptistBoard


"But would they [even] be a homosexual if they were celibate. Aren't YOU implying that you can tell a homosexual person by how they look or act?"
- dianetavegia, BaptistBoard


"Under these circumstances, the man would have fully repented of homosexuality and would wholly reject the label 'abstinate homosexual' but rather 'former homosexual'. In short, anyone who considered themselves a 'homosexual', abstinate or active, would not be fully repentant and therefore not qualifed to minister."
- Scott J, BaptistBoard


"One cannot simultaneously be truly repentant and label themselves by a predisposition towards a particular sin. Contrary to popular indoctrination, 'homosexual' is defined by what some perverse people do, not by what they are."
- Scott J, BaptistBoard


*** Post of the Week for August 31-September 5, 2003 ***

"Well the sources you provide [rebutting the errors in Chick tracts] appear to be Catholic... I'm considering the source there. I know without a doubt that Jack Chick and Dr. Rivera were telling the truth."
- Alexandra Spears, BaptistBoard


"So just because some schlub who threw together a web site says Chick's not honest, I should just jump on *their* bandwagon? Anyway, I did my research on it a long time ago and I can say with confidence that Chick is not dishonest."
- Alexandra Spears, BaptistBoard


"So for me, the jury is out on Jack Chick. At best, he is a guy who has done much to expose the ultimate evil in our world (the Vatican and the forces of Satan in our government)."
- mozier, BaptistBoard


"if you want my opinion.... i think God should do exactly what he did in Genesis....Wipe um [homosexuals] all out.. God said no so sin...But yall who are so blind to the truth wont accept it."
- ChurchOfChristDebator, ChristianForums


"i told you once opinions dont count... Your theology is also wrong..... I dont think Homosexuals should have any rights until they become a heterosexual....."
- ChurchOfChristDebator, ChristianForums


"I have found with the evolutionary side is that they have an excuse for everything. There is NOTHING which they cannot accomodate one way or another. That makes any evidence presented by creation folk irrelevant, ignorant, too limited to count, etc."
- Helen, BaptistBoard


"I'm referring to the evolution that athiests believe in. The religion known as evolutionism or secular humanism."
- chud247, ChristianForums


"Then if evolution has nothing to do with stars then you either a) believe in supernatural creation of the stars or b) you believe they evolved. Which is again, part of evolution."
- chud247, ChristianForums


[Replying to 'you have every right... to question'] "Yes, and look at the mess Satan caused at questioning God's absolute authority! Having the right is not necessarily a good thing!"
- joelch2, RaptureReady


*** Post of the Week for August 24-30, 2003 ***

[Replying to 'do sinless newborns go to hell?'] "Moot point. We all sin by the time we are a newborn. When we are hungry or cranky in the womb and kick we are being selfish and lashing out. That is sin."
- Rom831, RaptureReady


"I surely wouldn't be considered by most a feminist. If I had my way and had written in the Bible, I would have taught that no woman should ever be in a position of leadership. Alas, however, I did not write the Bible."
- Joseph_Botwinick, BaptistBoard


[Replying to 'I prefer strong and outspoken women']
"Then your preference is for women who are disobedient to Scripture."
- PastorGreg, BaptistBoard


"Don't bother trying to mock me, it won't do any good both for your argument, and your future. Your smart remarks mean nothing to me because these aren't even my words that I'm telling you. I'm trying to teach you about who God is and you are continuing in your false ideas. You are not trying to mock me, but God. Know for certain: God does........not........tolerate........mockers."
- Fox ABlaZe, GameFAQs


"Studies have been done at the moment of death and they have shown that the soul IS present in a body and at death the body is a few ounces lighter. Logic would dictate that the soul was what weighed those few ounces."
- Theologican63, EvC Forum


[Explaining the root causes of child abuse] "This is because parents are turning more to gayism and priests being pedophiles and the Iraqi war."
- MJREED111, Parallax Christian Discussion


"Why in the world would you wish the best to 'atheist, agnostic, pagan, and witch'? "
- PIANOMANONE, Parallax Christian Discussion


"I'm advocating that people like you [pagans] be treated in the way God says you should be treated. You're fortunate that the New Testament only says that we shouldn't wish you God speed. The Old Testament had a stronger way of dealing with people like you. [Exo 22:18] Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live."
- PIANOMANONE, Parallax Christian Discussion


"I don't see it as hate. It's obeying God."
- PIANOMANONE, Parallax Christian Discussion


[Replying to 'You would kill in god's name... and don't only because of the law?']
"Basically, yes."
- PIANOMANONE, Parallax Christian Discussion


"You have to understand the fact that 'Thou shalt not kill' was a command given to individuals. The command to kill witches, homosexuals, etc. was given to the community/society."
- PIANOMANONE, Parallax Christian Discussion


"Since God's Word says: [Exo 22:18] Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live. why would you want to do anything else?"
- PIANOMANONE, Parallax Christian Discussion


[Replying to a pagan asking 'what would be done to my child...?'] "He/she would, hopefully, be given to a Christian family to raise. He/she would be taught to love and trust Jesus Christ as his/her personal Saviour and he/she would spend eternity in Heaven."
- PIANOMANONE, Parallax Christian Discussion


"You expect that non christians are going to have a reprobate mind and that they are not going to understand the mind of God."
- JohnR7, ChristianForums


"I was trying to focus on the reprobate mind. The way a believer thinks, as compared to the way a unbeliever thinks."
- JohnR7, ChristianForums


"Do you have the mind of Christ? If you do not have the mind of Christ, then you have a reprobate mind."
- JohnR7, ChristianForums


"I'm not sure where but the Bible says that the Word is only understood by those who have the ears to hear it... Kind of a circular argument, but OK by me now that I believe. When I did not believe, the arguments made absolutely no sense to me."
- newlamb, ChristianForums


"In the atheist mindset... there is no natural reason to have a morality or a conscience. Beyond fear of getting caught and punished, there is no natural, rational reason for personal morals."
- didaskalos, ChristianForums


"When the lights go out and there is no longer any reason to fear police, what will atheists do? What will they not do? What is the rational reason to not take what you want, kill those who try to prevent, and otherwise just do anything that comes to mind?"
- didaskalos, ChristianForums


"Most atheists do not own up to the crimes of atheists like Stalin. He was an atheist whose atrocities were directly linked to his belief system. He murdered millions of people (many of them theists) because He did not believe in God."
- didaskalos, ChristianForums


"Atheism = fertile ground for twisted morality."
- didaskalos, ChristianForums


"If I am not responding to some of your posts, it is because your atheism has allowed you to adhere to a rational moralty which includes being rude, insulting, and mean spirited. I have therefore placed you on my ignore list and am not seeing your posts."
- didaskalos, ChristianForums


"You are right their is a difference between murder and homosexuality. Homosexuality is protected by society and murder is not."
- bobbym336, ChristianForums


"You see, the Smithsonian is responsible for hiding a lot of evidence that goes against evolution, so I've heard."
- booboocruise, EvC Forum


"Evolutionists, particularly the ones in this forum, are among the most close-minded, biased people I've ever heard of... Also, Kent Hovind IS a doctor. All the bogus riff-raff about Kent Hovind's degree is just a back-and-forth rumor between the evolutionists."
- booboocruise, EvC Forum


"I KNOW you will disagree, but I have seen Patriot's policies, I have SEEN WITH MY OWN EYES Dr. Hovind's PhD diploma, I have talked with Dr. Hovind personally, and I have even read the 'crap' that says Patriot University is a 'degree mill.' Whether it is a degree mill or not, (you'd have to be more specific) is not your business..."
- booboocruise, EvC Forum


"Even if Dr. Hovind WASN'T a doctor that wouldnt mean he doesn't have the righ to run C[reation]S[science]E[vangelism]... Also, any TRULY open-minded, educated person who is not arrogant or ignorant will admit that Dr. Hovind's degrees are legitimate."
- booboocruise, EvC Forum


"You always seem to have anti-creationist crap posted on the web, but I've never seen any evolutionists stand up to a publicised book by a true creation scientist--read through those three books, check their sources, AND ONLY THEN tell me that you can stand up to so-called 'dumb' creation scientists!!!"
- booboocruise, EvC Forum


"Arky you aren't suggesting that born again Christians would do that [slash a Wiccan's tires and make death threats] are you?"
- Blessedx4, RaptureReady


"I don't believe her. Nothing is holding her accountable for her words. I think she is lying. How many tires can someone get away with slashing before they get caught?"
- ddlewis86, RaptureReady


"Evolution is a religion in competition with Christianity. It has its adherents, priests and apologists. Since the priests are the ones manufacturing the 'evidence' they can be like the pagan priests who conjured 'magic' to convince the people to continue to support them."

"Dinosaurus lived less then 6000 year... if they lived at all. i happen to be a christian that thinks that living dinosaurs never existed"

- holes_flow, Yahoo! News Message Boards


"ok hold off on the insults and follow with meon this you don't have to agree just listen... Ibelieve the earth is roughly 7000-10,000 yers old...now i believe increation therefore God created the universe with the APPEARANCE of age and not actual age. "

"... well, while inbreeding is a problem, it is not that much of a problem if you will assume that Adam and Eve's genes were 'perfect' and all the imperfections and racial diversity were introduced with cosmic radiation and Satan."

"And atheism is a great way to justify having sex with animals. After all, an atheist does not have to be held accountable for such actions!"
- Esoteric_Illuminati, The Catacombs Forum


"Although all athiests think differently and have different morals they all acknowledge the same thing.. that God doesnt exist. So like different donominations of christianity or another religion who may differ on some views they all have the same major doctorines in which they believe or agree upon just as all athiests hold that God does not exsist. So athiesm is a religion it is the great negavtive religion."
- christiansoldier, God and Science Forums


"I respect atheists like Nietzsche, who recognize and understand the implications of their worldview. If I believe that I'm the end result of two rocks colliding into each other billions of years ago, please don't preach to me about sending the $20 I'm going to use to buy a sack of marijuana to some starving kids in Africa..."
- aphiz17, ChristianForums


"Atheists need to realize that morality doesn't coincide with the concept of 'survival of the fittest,' and if I'm a product of the latter, I'll live my life according to that principle because that's what's natural. If I truly believed in atheism and all of its implications, I would admire Hitler more than I would Gandhi."
- aphiz17, ChristianForums


August 17 Update


"I do see a decline in morality that is frightening..and the homosexual agenda is a big part of that decline."
- sweetkitty, ChristianForums


"Scientists still have no answers. They have 'ideas' and 'thesis', but no one has any cold, hard facts to present. So IMO, the scientists have just as much of a shot at being right as the 'religious fanatics who spread irrational paranoia'."
- Lola, ChristianForums


"Innocent children should stay that way, and they should not know what sex is until they're at least 16. Kids are getting sexual information at an earlier age, and it's wrong."
- dayton, ChristianForums


"No offense, Truncate, but placing your faith in lexicographers, biologists & doctors will keep you in an inpenetrable darkness forever."
- silas, ChristianForums


"The term is not 'Gay'. That is not your word. The homosexual regime took it to try and sugarcoat actions that most might, and indeed did, find reprehensible."
- drfeelgood, ChristianForums


"The pro-homosexual movement likes to liken opposition with the Nazi death camps. The homosexual agenda sort of reminds me of the Nazi regime, if I think within that context."
- drfeelgood, ChristianForums


"What matters is that you have made a conscious choice, every time you embark upon those sexual quests of yours. What matters is that there is an influx of homosexual propaganda in the media. What matters is that there is good evidence to support a homosexual agenda."
- drfeelgood, ChristianForums


"Take anything you believe is, absolutely and without doubt, sinful. Whether it be an underground culture of snuff film creators murdering for fun and profit, whether it be child molestation, or a group that believes genocide of an entire minority race is the way to go, you will obviously (and rightly) be outraged and frustrated by any activities which promote this lifestyle or point of view as acceptable."
- Vance, ChristianForums


"... is this person a follower of the old and new testament? If not, I don't see any reason to debate this person unless they are someone of faith... Many times they will question if bad is good or good is really bad and do not have a compass as we do. They have to come to terms and accept the Lord before they can see clearly. "
- Sp0ck, ChristianForums


"It [being gay] is harmful, even from a scientific standpoint. We've seen that it's harmful. It's even harmful to many teenagers state of minds, that try to commit suicide as a result."
- drfeelgood, ChristianForums


"What makes gay men so uniquely qualified to advise straight people about how to live their lives?"
- Tribe, ChristianForums


[Replying to 'homosexuality is natural']
"I'm sure there are parents of homosexuals who would disagree."
- Lola, ChristianForums


"Also go to www.google.com search engine and type 'evolution' and you will get plenty of stuff from very educated, intelligent scientists who believe your uncle was a gorilla. Good luck"
- KJsole, Theology Forums


"Evolution does say that we evolved from monkeys and micro organisms. Particularly hard core evolutionists."
- Badfish, ChristianForums


"Actually, what they have is a bunch of different skeltons that they have found. In a lot of cases they do not know if it is a man or a monkey. There are times when half the so called experts will say it is a monkey or an ape, the other half will say they think it is a man."
- JohnR7, ChristianForums, apparently oblivious to the damage creationism receives from fossils that blur the line between apes and humans


"The [fossil hominid] skulls are from men who lived several hundreds of years old. The top of the head becomes longer and the face leans back with age, creating a more apelike appearence. And they were actually superior to us in lots of ways."
- pudmuddle, ChristianForums


"It says Cain was in the process of constructing a city, it doesn't say there was people in it. Genesis isn't exhaustive, but it doesn't say there was people in the city Cain was building."
- Badfish, ChristianForums


[After someone asks what the heck Cain was doing building a 1-person city] "I don't know, I'll read more, but thats what it says, maybe he was getting ready for people, he knew to be fruitful and multiply. Besides somebody had to start building a city, he was building, not completed building an empty city."
- Badfish, ChristianForums


*** Post of the Month for August 2003 ***

"Now with all that out of the way; was BURNING SODOMITES ALIVE, a loving thing?... YES. The BURNING ALIVE OF THE SODOMITES WAS A LOVING THING!!! GOD is love, correct? If you don't believe me, go read 1 John right now... So when HE burns alive all the Sodomites the core of that action is love. YES, tough love, but none the less love."
- Sola Gratia, Christianity.com Forums


"Yes, Miss 'A', the burning of the sodomites was a violent act. GOD sometimes is violent (see the flood in Gen.). This is what I'm trying to get at. We have made GOD into a Dancing Bunny that just sits up in heaven bouncing and dancing and throwing candy all around HIM. Uhhh, you obviously got the wrong concept! "
- Sola Gratia, Christianity.com Forums


"I think one of the reasons why Christians are so 'obsessed' with this subject is because their agenda is being shoved down our throats. They want to be recognized as equals as far as man and wife are concerned and that goes against God's Word."
- Readthe book, Christianity.com Forums


"1. I'm not as preoccupied by homoSEXuality, as I am THE LACK AND ABSENCE OF THE WRATH OF GOD in our modern day Church.
2. WHY CAN'T MOST OF YOU SEE LOVE IN THE BURNING OF SODOMITES???"
- Sola Gratia, Christianity.com Forums


"I can kind of see where you are coming from. However, this thread is titled, 'Burning Sodomites alive, a loving thing?'. And I made it very clear that I was speaking about GOD burning sodomites, not JoJo, down the block. So I'm kind of confused where witches and inquisition folk got in there?"
- Sola Gratia, Christianity.com Forums


"How is it that there are so many happy, joyous, and fufilled nuns in the world? These women have given up freedom, possessions, children, and marraige, and yet, they are joyful... Does this speak to any athiests in support of the existence of God? If not, to what do you attribute their happiness?"
- Gemma Therese, Internet Infidels


"I feel sorry about your (apparent) lack of intelligence... But that is not the point of this thread. You have still evaded the question -- Why are sisters happy?"
- Gemma Therese, Internet Infidels


"Well, if it makes you feel any better, the god in question might have chosen those numbers [in the lottery] on the basis of who he wanted to win the large runner-up prize. After all, every choice has a certain amount of by-product effect."
- Ojuice5001, Internet Infidels


"According to my theology, the gods' primary influence on the world is chance events. And what's more of a chance event than gambling? Therefore, each god must strive very hard to be the one who controls the state lotteries, and even standard casino gambling must be valuable."
- Ojuice5001, Internet Infidels


"Hey, why mess around with religion, politics, the weather, and the populations of small animals (all of which are also excellent ways for the gods to influence the world) when you can just decide which numbers come up in the lottery? But anything that valuable must be a highly coveted commodity, so any given god doesn't control the lottery all the time. In this vein, it seems strange that Yahweh would forbid gambling. I think the likely explanation is that that was a non-inspired mistake in the Bible--an imperfection not put in by Yahweh at all. "

"Many times God warns us about homosexuality. In Romans chapter one, God ... removes the restraint of evil: allowing them to sink to depths of depravity previously denied to them. If this man is unrepentant, there is no evil he will not do!"

"i believe in survival of the fittest, not evolution. all of the recent findings of pre homo-sapians have been disproved with the findings of dna, proving that that they had mixed a couple of bone fragments from different species."
- serendipity79, ChristianForums


"Actually, newer findings are showing that the theory of man evolving from ape is now probably false. Now that we can examine DNA, they are finding that they have mixed bones that were fossilized near each other thousands of years ago and created the illusion that they belonged together while in reality the bones belonged to different species."
- serendipity79, ChristianForums


"it is completely absurd to to think that a single cell, by chance can turn into a complex organism such as a human being... how likely is that really? it is so absurd. that anyone could ever believe that"

*** Honorary Doublethink Award ***

"God saves people of all beliefs, if they repent and accept Christ as their savior. Their spiritual beliefs are of no consequence...."
- lambslove, ChristianForums


"I believe homosexuality is actually demon possesion.
I think the demon is a 'lust' demon. I think evil temperment is a demon possesion. I think stealing is a demon possesion. I think killing is also, as well as cheating. When sin is continual, it is possesion, there is no other definition."

"Satan is the father of rebellion and he is your father as well. I am not trying to insult you, I am just stating a fact. Just because you do not accept it as fact does not change the temperature of Hell by one degree."

"He didn't mean for us to make a god of 'thinking' as you have apparently done for yourself."
- Ellen Bell, Theology Forums


"I'm going to disagree with you. I don't think that they [Adam and Eve] didn't know right from wrong, but rather they didn't know good from evil."

1. You'll be convinced that it actually wasn't a 'problem', and convert to Jesus Christ right on the spot.
2. You'll not accept my answer altogether or find some fault with it or have some 'yes, but...'
3. You'll accept my answer completely but then hit me with another one of the 29,999 that I'm aware of. Round-n-round she'll go...

"Maybe God told other men to build similar arks around the world and contain all of the local wildlife on many arks rather than every animal on the Earth on one ark."
- Aqua_Raptor, BlizzForums, presenting the creationist explanation for biogeography (i.e. why marsupials are limited to Australia and the like)


"I wonder is anyone interested in discussing science in here. I dont think I'll get any argument that science is a human invention, even though it is worshiped and served like a pagan god."
- Oholiab, ChristianForums


"No, not blood sacrifices. The sacrifices that are made to science are soul sacrifices. Those that want to embrace 'scientific wisdom' and shun the wisdom of the One who made our puny minds is perishing in their own wisdom. That my freind is sad."
- ByGrace, ChristianForums


"That is how it came to be in the place of God as the source of wisdom and knowledge. Just as the Children of Israel fashioned a golden calf saying this is the god that delivered you out of Egypt, [info here--Ed.] is given the credit for leading Western Civilization out of the Dark Ages."

"I think you've seen Jurassic Park too many times (and I do love that movie). Who are you to say that T-Rex ate meat of plants? Have you feed one?"

"A priori reasoning isn't empirical either, but it does tell me that something cannot come from nothing. So on that, it it hard for me to think that Darwinian evolution is true."

"I think your giving science credit for a bit more than what they are responsable for. People got along just fine before science came along. Esp. if they lived for God and He blessed them with health and a long life."
- JohnR7, ChristianForums, referring to vaccines and heart transplants


"If you add up how many people die from weapons of mass destruction, a gift from science. Or how many people die from perscription drugs, again a gift from science. So who is to say without the contribution of science more people would not live a longer life."

"Interesting that you think 'science' gave us agriculture. If your going to make the claim, then perhaps you would like to present your evidence. It was actually religion that gave us agriculture because it was the priests who came up with the first calanders that really made it possible."
- JohnR7, ChristianForums


"And yes you are right, I don't know enough yet. I have a good start, but no, I don't know enought yet to wage all out war on evolution. That's why I said I'd be back. I'm going to learn more, research more, read more, write more, shread the paper apart myself, re-write, reinforce and then do it all over again until I have a case good enough to stump you. You want to know how hard this Imperial Smackdown will be? If I can do all I set out to do, it's going to rock the very foundations of Darwin's theory. Creation is the true story, I know that, and I know because it is true, there is proof for it, I just need to find that proof, and I fully intent to."

"What exactly do I have now [to falsify evolution with].... I have an interest, 5 pages of a paper done, 2 DVDs, 6 books, about 100 websites, and a 1" binder loaded with evolutionary comebacks. I'm getting more all the time. Do you want to know why I am confident? It's called faith, faith in God."

"I 'know' [the Bible is true] because I am here and I am living. There is no way in heck something as complex as a human was created by a big bang (no one knows were the matter for that came from), Abiogenesis (big deal, they made amino acids), and random mutations (which are 99.9% of the time harmful). Go to AnwersInGenesis.org. They are the leading Creationist scientists and their site is full of evidance."
- 1SuprJesusFreak, Kyle Givler Teens' Board


"Yes, so I'm one of many. Maybe I will fail, but if I can stump the evolutionist community just once with a new peice of evidance for Creation, it will have been worth it. It may take the very return of Jesus before you nuts get the idea. But until then, I will work to distroy the lie."

"Einstein's disciple Prof Lincoln Barnett said: 'We cannot feel or motion through space. Nor has any experiment actually proved that the Earth is in motion!'. If you say that Geocentricity is 'silly', then you have to say that Einstein (and Mach and Barnett) are also 'silly'!"
- Prince, Bad Astronomy Bulletin Board


"The equations & physics used by NASA to launch satellites & interplanetary probes are identical to the equations derived from a geocentric universe. All are planned & executed on the basis of a FIXED EARTH! They do not use the Copernican System! You can confirm this with them & the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration in Washington DC!"
