Last Updated July 20, 2003



"The curse of atheism is not an intellectual one but rather moral. You see, an atheist knows that if they believe there is a God, they will have to change the way they live. Professing atheism has become a fashion these days. Many illiterate people also proudly identify themselves with these beliefs. In addition, some political parties adopt this theme as their party principle."
- A Humble Christian, ChristianForums


"I'm not here for you or your satanic cult group of atheists who's only purpose here is to do the work of the devil by smearing your false man made beliefs and corrupt the word of God."
- A Humble Christian, ChristianForums


"This is harsh but the mind of an atheist is like a night club. They don't want you to see them intoxicating themselves, sitting with another woman that's not their wife, acting like heathens. You turn the light on and they scatter like roaches."
- A Humble Christian, ChristianForums


[Replying to 'Were Adam and Eve black?'] "No. They were white like milk. There are no whites on earth today! This white -vs- black is of the devil! All who are on the earth today are black of different degrees."
- kjbbn.net, Christianity.com Forums


"Adam and Eve before the fall were white like milk! After the fall this is not true of anyone but Christ."
- kjbbn.net, Christianity.com Forums


"well I suspect man was white in the beginning since it is said man was created in the image of God and his shining glory was bright and I guess white then."
- DanielGorden, Christianity.com Forums


"I Do Not Belive That Gay Marrage Should Not Be Allowed. Its Unethical, Unatureal, And People are not Born gay. As A christain country this should have never been allowed to happen. It goes aginest every thing that christianty is."

"Excuse me? So if Christianity is based on hate, where are all the Roman Catholic suicide bombers?"
- Ziggy7483, Utopia Temple Forums


"Both Harry Potter and Pokemon have been denounced at our church. Our youth pastor frequently warns of the evil trash..."
- snowbird, RaptureReady


"I just read an article, that because of TV (Sabrina the teenage witch, Buffy, and Harry Potter more and more people are coming to witchcraft, which GOD said HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH it...Why we justify evil. I'll never understand."
- Gapeach, RaptureReady


"All these books and programs do is make whichcraft look fun, and that there is nothing wrong with it, they are just glorifying it. Why would they take a terrible sin like that and make it look like it isnt that bad? Next they will be making shows with homosexual 5 year olds, but everyone will think it is ok, because the main homosexual character is fighting evil..."
- MindieRose, RaptureReady


"Alot of people are starting to watch these crazy folks [cold readers] who say they talk to the dead..and it is forbidden in God's Word to do that..FORBIDDEN!! You are messing with demonic forces you can-not control.."
- Gapeach, RaptureReady


"As a matter of fact I do NOT let my kids watch ANYTHING with witchcraft, even wizard of oz. They dont see any Disney movies with witches at all, or even the Dora the Explorer that has the wizard or the witch on. "
- MindieRose, RaptureReady


"I as well as several others pray for this board. I think Satan and his minions try hard to take down a M[essage]B[oard] like this where there are thousands upon thousands of hits from guests an members."
- magnolia, RaptureReady


"Keep in mind that the Quran has some very specific scientific statements that, if proven wrong, would disprove the whole Quran. The difference is, if I'm wrong about my faith and there is no God, I lose nothing..."
- AhmadX, Utopia Temple Forums


"I don't care how you interpret your experience. For me, N[ear]D[eath]E[xperience]s are evidence of life after death, and nothing anyone says could ever change that. And even if there weren't NDEs at all, I'd believe in life after death. My beliefs are independent of evidence. Blind faith is what makes me tick."
- emotional, Internet Infidels


"Things can be real even if you can't prove them to others. I can't prove to other people that God and the afterlife are real, but the fact remains that they are real, no matter what people believe."

"I was really quite impressed by some of the quotes [on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!], and thought they were excellent witnesses to anybody who might read them."
- lookinupval, RaptureReady


"prophecies vague? not really- ever read revelation? Looks pretty descriptive to me."
- kerri, RaptureReady


"He only gives you enough information to spark your curiosity so that you may go research it more and wonder...opening yourself up to demonic attack..."
- Sane, RaptureReady


"I personally consider evolution to be a tactic used by Satan to raise the possibility there is no God and we are but a coincidence, a freak accident."
- MGMickey, RaptureReady


"Yup....evolution would have you believe that you are not a special creation and that once you die....thats it! No hereafter, no judgement, no eternal life. Thus, get all you can, however you can today, because in the end only the fittest survive. Its a crock that's falsely labeled as science......its not even good science. Its a hoax."
- cameron222, RaptureReady


"When I was very young, the dinosaur books which I read emphasized evolution, so I, being ignorant, accepted it as the truth because it was in my dinosaur books! Who was I to question adult paleontologists?"
- dinosaur, RaptureReady


"If we 'evolved' from gorillas, they would be extinct. Evoloution is a total change from one animal or plant, to another. Last time I checked, you can go a see gorillas at your local zoo."
- tenor, RaptureReady


"Biology is not my job, so it is not up to me to come up with a better [classification] system. Let's look at an example: Animal, vegetable or Mineral. Is the Pearl produced by a claim a animal or a mineral?"
- JohnR7, ChristianForums


"If science claims that one species changed into another, then that simply means they do not know what a species is. Because the Bible clearly says that God created 'according to their kind'."
- JohnR7, ChristianForums


"If God had already come into this world to help us knew Him personally, then, why humans hated/hate to believe Him and accept His as their God? The answer is:... Human's Sinful Gene"
- Nobody, BaptistWatch


"I hope this forum isnt just poking fun at him. I hope you dont worship the great God science, because false idols are forbidden. I dont get it, science is wrong more often than right and yet you people seem to worship it as if it was your maker."
- Georgia, Biblical Pitfalls


[From a Canadian] "Since our country has basically begun to cave in, allowing same sex marriages, how many think we now have givin reasons to Islamic terrorist to hit Canada for our immortality[sic]. The western governments have always been stated as an enemy. Won't this give justification to them to attack Canada? (Canada's immoral act). They call all of us the 'devil' states don't they? What would the Islamic populas think of Canada leading in same sex marriage?"
- KateCanada, RaptureReady


"Then, yesterday, Mom and I were talking about the trials of raising teenagers, and I said "Well, hopefully Jesus will come back before then and I won't have to worry about it." She was horrified by the thought - like that would cheating them out of life or something. I said 'Mom, Christ returning is a GOOD thing!' She just looked at me like I was crazy."
- yankeedownsouth, RaptureReady


"That is a thought. I wonder if a lot of medical 'advancements' are the work of satan??? Does that sound stupid? I know that abortion is the work of the devil, for one, and cloning is a scary thing indeed. What you say makes complete sense though. I pray the Lord takes us soon."
- mama2kira, RaptureReady


"The world hates the Idea of Jesus coming back. The world hates Christians for even talking about it. So why are they doing everything they can to bring it about, and then blame us for it."
- Lightfoot, RaptureReady


"I told them of the places in the [Harry Potter] books where it is NOT fiction - but actual spells, actual book titles, actual people that had been steeped in the occult. They sat there with their mouths hanging open, because they had had no idea."
- LLee, RaptureReady


"After reading the beginning of the front page at witchonthego.com, and seeing how the book was released on the same day that witches believe God is at His weakest, I will undoubtedly never allow my children to partake in this festival of evil...the sugar-coated satanic cult of Harry Potter. How EVIL is that, to have children celebrating on the same day that witches are rejoicing because they believe God is weak today?!?!"
- MercifullySaved, RaptureReady


*** Post of the Week for June 29-July 5, 2003 ***

"I'd rather read a Left Behind book over a Harry Potter one anyday. But then again, that's just me. I'm a military person and I like books that are more realistic."
- Docpro, RaptureReady


"If 'the fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge', then all knowledge must be taught based on that fear of the Lord. All that we learn must be learned in acknowlegement of and in submission to the Truth of God found in Jesus Christ."
- Hadassah, TheologyWeb


"How many of you Evolutionist have proof of the Big BANG. You have to Explain how and why it dose not agree with all the scientific laws that are present."
- newworldcrusader, ChristianForums


"I dont Have to do that [provide evidence] mot of the public Knows It dose not comply with the Laws of Thermodynamics. and many others. "
- newworldcrusader, ChristianForums


"I've sat idle watching ahteists, humanists, wiccas make a mockery of the Christian faith, God and his divine word. Now look, the forum crashes, and the blasphemy is lost. Oh the irony of it all!"
- ChristianSoldier, ChristianForums


"I think this is just as easily explained by the hypothesis that these people [the National Academy of Sciences] are using evolution as an excuse to avoid God."
- wienerdog, TheologyWeb


"But that's par for the course with evolutionists, whether atheists or their churchian 'useful idiot' dupes."
- Socrates, TheologyWeb


"You could only know that God gave you reliable senses because God has revealed it in Scripture. In other words, faith in God's revelation in Scripture is logically prior when it comes to you being able to provide a rational account as to why you believe your senses are reliable. Science cannot be posited as the standard by which you come to know that your senses are reliable since scientific investigation needs to presuppose sense reliability (and human rationality) from the outset."
- TheFiveSolas, TheologyWeb


"I dont know if Satan 'ghost-writ' this [Harry Potter] book or not. But you're argument is kinda week. If we took your logic out to it's natural conclusion then we would have to say that the Holy Spirit didnt write scripture thru the many authors it had. We would have to say that 'Paul wrote the book, just like any other writer writes a book.'"
- KrispyKritter, RaptureReady


"You are saying that the Chihuahua is proof for evolution right because it cannot repoduce with the original dog? Is that correct? If so, why is the chihuahua not a dog? Is it a cat or bird or fish? Maybe its a plant because its getting smaller and slowly turning into a piece of fruit..."
- fox, CreationWeb


"And there won't be organ music playing [during the Rapture] - it will be trumpets ( and im not even sure unbelievers will be able to hear them)."
- Magus55, Internet Infidels


"And read the verse again. God will send them a delusion so that THEY may believe a lie. God isn't lying - He specifically states He will send a delusion."
- Magus55, Internet Infidels


"How do you want God to show you signs ? I can tell you that one night I prayed and I felt a warmth in my troaght I cannot explain. You know what , Im 100% sure science can find an explanation! It could have been placebo!"

"First we catered to the liberal Christians, many of whom stand in stark contrast to Christs teachings and teach contrary to what the bible seems to say..."
- Badfish, ChristianForums


"I would rather be a heartless conservative than a brainless liberal anyday!"
- calgal, ChristianForums


"Just curious what you thought about all of this anti-American, President Bush bashing coming from the mouths of ignorant fools like Susan Sarandon, Jeannine Garafalo, Sean Penn, The Dixie Chicks, etc, etc, etc."
- KeysforChrist, ChristianForums


"Sure, shoot your mouth of like a moron and say all sorts of nasty things about the war and the President of the US, but don't expect me to sit here and be stupid enough to support your work when you spout your sewer off about things ignorantly."
- KeysforChrist, ChristianForums


"And yes, I will stereotype Hollywood. I doubt very few actors/actresses have a faith in God. I would guess that most of them are atheists, which is nothing but a cover for self-worship."
- KeysforChrist, ChristianForums


"If they kept their yapper shut and didn't bash the President and the war effort I probably wouldn't even know if they were an atheist or not."
- KeysforChrist, ChristianForums


"I said that atheists are self-worshippers. God made us to worship something or someone. If you aren't worshipping God, you are worshipping something else, and the atheists want to be in control of everything, so that would be worship of the self."
- KeysforChrist, ChristianForums


"Sorry, but the Democrats have turned into appeasing socialists. P[olitically]C[orrecting]'ing the world to death through programs and tolerance."
- KeysforChrist, ChristianForums


"Don't sweat it though - the entire rap community will eventually kill themselves all off. They are interested in nothing but money anyway. Greedy group of vulchers."
- KeysforChrist, ChristianForums


"The libs talk a lot about tolerance, but their actions are only 'PC'. That's political correctness and it is used by anti-faith bigots and hatemongers to try to silence Christians and observant Jews."
- ACLJ, ChristianForums


"I always felt that the devil has been involved in all this. He can make the earth appear much older or much younger. He can make us believe that man did not exist with dinnosaurs. After all he is the great deceiver. I for one used to believe UFO existed, even saw some. But then thru my bible studies and more reading of my bible I realized it is just the devil and his cohorts doing their dirty deeds. He is very active in our times."
- Lil_unicornkiss, RaptureReady


"You started to let satan or demons do your thinking for you [when you began questioning]."
- JohnR7, ChristianForums


"In order to do that I would actually have to read the thread. I will take your advise under consideration and give it some thought. But for now my objective is just to have fun with your guys. I like to push your buttons."
- JohnR7, ChristianForums


"Also, evolution undermines the biblical teaching that humanity is ONE RACE because we are all descended from Adam..."
- Socrates, TheologyWeb


"This means that a person who believes we descended from apes or that all life came from a primitive protocell is inventing their own private version of Christianity which in a technical sense is not the Christianity of the Bible. This does not mean that their belief in Jesus Christ will not save them. It simply means that they are compromising with the world and in that sense could be said to not be genuine Christians."
- Socratism, TheologyWeb


"And I would want to know why Christian parents were sending their kids to the anti-God public school system in the first place. It's like the Israelites sending their kids to the Canaanites to be educated."
- Socratism, TheologyWeb


"I hope I haven't offended any of you evolutionist types by using facts and logic "
- Mathezar, God and Science Board


"There indecision is in favor of no God rather than for there being a God so they in reality are atheists dressed in agnostic dogma."
- oncedeceived, RaptureReady


"So, this taking out Saddam may have been an act of God under the circumstances. God has had to take out other enemy nations bent on taking out Israel. God will protect Israel as He sees fit, if it means destroy the enemy in the case of Saddam."
- Loneseer, RaptureReady


"I have spent lots of time finding internet resources to show the witness the contradictions in their philosophy. We have had ten different [Jehovah's] witnesses come to our house, and everything we say goes in one ear and out the other."
- NordicThunder, RaptureReady


"Their reasoning is very circular - and you have to break the circle in order to make any headway."
- LLee, RaptureReady


"If you think most liberals are so open minded their brains fell out... you're in good company."
- magnolia, RaptureReady


"I remember watching a program many years ago where this scientist had conducted experiments on humans and different types of animals. When the people died there was a noticible reduction of weight at the moment of death (the beds were on a scale) and with the animals there was no change in weight at the moment of death. His conclusion was that something left the body, but he wasn't sure what."
- ready2go, RaptureReady


"Incidentally, the 'nothingness' is also in the school books. It is how kids are taught. They came from nothing, rained on rocks, swam in ooze, and evolved into monkeys then people. That is one of the reasons why we have the problems we have today."
- Mrs. Hoppes, RaptureReady


"I visited the Geocentricity website and found it not as looney as I'd thought."
- fbridges2, RaptureReady


"The dream I am referring to was one I had on January 23, 1993, and which was in two parts. The title of this thread was the answer God the Father gave me when I asked Him when the 'End' (the Rapture) would be... Possibly (not to "prophesy"), the Rapture would occur on June 8, 2003 A.D... It might mean that Saddam is kicked out of Iraq in June; it might mean that he attacks Israel in June; it might mean that the Rapture occurs in June... Something to keep in mind, at least until June 8."
- Douglas, ARN Discussion Forum


"If it proves not to be the case, I would simply conclude that I was wrong. Actually, it would not be unless the Rapture did not occur within the first 2 months of 2004 that I would begin to doubt the general time frame for the Rapture that I believe is in several ways indicated..."
- Douglas, ARN Discussion Forum


[On June 9th] "I'm pretty sure, though, that I did not claim that the Rapture would happen June 8 of this year. I'm pretty sure I said that it was one of two apparently very strong possibilities. But thanks to charlie d for his concern. Now, it would seem that September 27 or so would be the most likely time for the Rapture. Assuming my assumptions are correct."
- Douglas, ARN Discussion Forum


"September 27, 2003 (or September 26 or September 28, depending on whose particular calendar one consults) - The Feast of Trumpets for 2003. But I want to try to make it clear for those whose discernment is cloudy or clouded that I am not 'PREDICTING' anything. It's just an educated guess as to a likely time for the Rapture."
- Douglas, ARN Discussion Forum


"By the way, your argument regarding all the failed prophecies regarding the time of the Rapture would be equivalent to those prior to the Wright Brothers who presented all the failed attempts at human flight as proof that human flight would never occur. Guess how that turned out."
- Douglas, ARN Discussion Forum


"There are several errors (no offense) in your reasoning. First, Jesus did not say 'No man knows or will know the day or the hour' - what He said was true when He said it, but it does not necessarily follow that it must be true until He returns. Second, Jesus is very precise in saying 'day' and 'hour' - note that He does not include 'month' or 'year'; thus, someone might know within a few days (perhaps calendrical questions and variances would prevent them from 'knowing' the exact day)..."
- Douglas, ARN Discussion Forum


"I would note that I have claimed that God has 'spoken' to me directly only three or four times 'via dreams', and that only one of those involved 'knowledge of the specifics of future events'. "

"Actually, there is strong evidence that many dinosaur fossils aren't that old at all. Many bones have been found that have not been completely fossilized and are still partly bone. In fact, several hadrosaur skeletons have been found in Alaska that are so fresh, some still have the ligaments attached!"
- Hypsilophodont, Crosswalk Forums


"Are these [video games] evil or is it a battle between good and evil and won't preoccupy the mind. I notice he [the husband] gets up early in the morning to play before work or church even! Some games are the Starcraft ones (sounds like witchcraft), Heroes of Might & Magic., Lords, etc. Some of the pictures are so evil!"
- Jill, Crosswalk Forums


"Before discounting the Flood, modern science should humbly remember that if we were only to trust its explanatory models and predictions the Pyramids would be an historical impossibility. But there they are, for all to see, still driving evolutionary scientists crazy after all these years."
- Jonatas Machado, Amazon.com Customer Reviews


[On Harry Potter] "I've been saying this all along. You are either with Jesus or you are not. Pokemon is anti trinity as well."
- architectlink, RaptureReady


[Replying to 'you've gotta be kidding'] "Actually, Pokeman is not a good choice at all. Do a search and you'll find out what's really going on. Same ballpark as the Harry Potter stuff, IMO."
- Patty T, RaptureReady


"Those of us who have had Pokemon stuff around us and have researched it know that it is blasphemous of the trinity, so I don't understand why there are still Christians who are still arguing for it."
- architectlink, RaptureReady


"I don't mean to be skeptical... but exactly how does Pokemon portray an anti-trinity?"
- slyguy, RaptureReady


"It's a foregone conclusion that Satan has been standing over J.K. Rowling's shoulder from the moment she first put pen to paper. The ONLY matter up for debate is whether or not she KNOWS he's there."
- Angyl, RaptureReady


"Yes, pokeman are evil... Shoefoot [a Venezuelan shaman] does not speak English, but when a missionary showed him a book of pokemans he identified each one by it's name in his own language (he is from the most primitive culture in the world). He said they are starter demons for children. Now if a fellow who has been demonically possessed, and who has actually danced with the devil can recognize them for what they are - I think we should take notice."
- snowbird, RaptureReady


"Better to be paranoid and always on guard than lax and deceived left and right. Such an attitude makes one easy prey for Satan cuz the next thing you know... He doesn't really exist and isn't out to get you at all."
- Angyl, RaptureReady


"Keep in mind also about the Yugi-oh cards. I saw them (have had a bg with paganism and wicca) and I knew what they were before I Saw the name. These are very clearly demonic.. and after seeing them, a week later in the Dollar Tree store in a local town, we (parents and I) fell upon a book explaining the ancient mysteries of Yugi-oh......... and it falls right in line with Poke-mon/Wicca/Paganism and Neo Paganism/Druidism."
- antsinmypants, RaptureReady


"From what I can recall, it [Pokemon] has to do with mind control and casting some type of spell on those who don't obey."
- Patty T, RaptureReady


*** Post of the Week for June 22-28, 2003 ***

"Pokemon are slowly mesmerizing our children into believing that EVOLVING MONSTERS USE VIOLENCE AND POWER TO PREVAIL OVER THE UNIVERSE... Watch it for one show and you can see all the ways that it teaches children that overcoming others with violence is how to rule the earth."

"Abolish the gun permits, abolish gun registration, abolish background checks, and other infringements of the government, that infringe on the liberties of American Citizens and violate the Contitution, the supreme law of the land."

"Whether some [old earth] creationists 200 years in the past came to the wrong conclusion about the age of the Earth has no bearing on the truth of the matter."
- Socratism, TheologyWeb


"Well, I'm no scientist or theologan. However, many people believe that when God created the earth he gave Satan, who was the highest of all the angels dominion over the earth. Satans fall occurred when he tried to make himself like God and tried his hand at creation and made the dinosaurs."
- RichW, ABC Bodybuilding Forum


"(Christians) Do you believe the earth to be 6,000 years old? I saw this on a show, and was very doubtful of it, because of erosion is some places that should take millions of years, but after watching some good ol' kent hovind, i understand and believe it now!"
- bennyhanna1, ABC Bodybuilding Forum


"i doubt it's been around millions of years, 6,000 years sounds about right. doesn't make much difference though. when you think about it it makes more sense for it to only be thousands of years old, if it's been around for millions, i can't imagine what's being happening these past million years."
- Iron Carcass, ABC Bodybuilding Forum


"for awhile, dinosaurs really threw me for a loop, i understood the whole adam and eve thing, but i just couldn't figure out dinosaurs, luckily kent hovind spent some time on that subject!"
- bennyhanna1, ABC Bodybuilding Forum


"Carbon dating is innacurate! I wish I could qoute the source for this but I can't. Anyway a carbon test was done on something and found to be millions of years old when it was know to be only a few hundred years old."
- BigLump, ABC Bodybuilding Forum


"Again, the Bible is Gods word, therefore is the inspired word of the infinite creator, God, then the word of God must be self-authenticating and self-attesting."
- John6:63, RaptureReady


"Right now on the Discovery Channel Satan is hard at work decieving millions. The program 'Caveman' shows how modern man has 'evolved' from tree limb swinging baboon to homo sapien. The show has incredible special effects; fortunately I know the truth about the THEORY of evolution. Pray for others who are watching this."
- BaldingBrute, RaptureReady


"Yeah.....I looked at part of it....Yikes! ...a doctrine of devils born out of Hell !"
- stardaddy, RaptureReady


"evolution is so real that there are part humans living right on my very street...half ape half human. And there are part dogs, and part cats walking around everywhere, eating partially evolved fish that have jumped out of the lakes and walked right over... Why hasn't this been studied more? If things had evolved, we would have all sorts of species that were in several states of evolving around the world... Makes no sense whatsoever."
- architectlink, RaptureReady


"I saw a commercial today about this show and my son and I were sitting there and I said to him the biggest flaw in this theory is that if we evolved from Ape's/baboon's then why are they still in existance today? would they not have evolved too. HE said yep it's stupid."
- Trusting, RaptureReady


"It just seems like a stretch to say that everything came from single-celled organisms in random combinations. If that was the case, why is it that, according to science, all fish came first, then all amphibians, then all reptiles, etc.? If it was random, why couldn't amphibians have come at the same time as fish?"
- Jiggy37, RaptureReady


"I heard once 'cave men' were normal humans with vitamin deficiencies that caused abnormalities."
- Silly Daddy, RaptureReady


"I had read years ago that in biblical days, many times the people with birth defects and such were cast out of the communities, and that they had gone to live in caves (and probably propagated).........and that those were the skeletons that have been found. I don't know that it's true, but it would answer a few questions about the 'cave men', wouldn't it?"

- RJs here, RaptureReady


"I just finished watching another tape from
http://www.drdino.com [Kent Hovind's website]
It's not copyrighted so see if you can get the series on creation vs evolution. With three degrees I thought I was educated. I was duped. We have been lied too - the extent of the deception is incredible."
- snowbird, RaptureReady


"I saw part of this as well. It was presented as FACT, not theory. I prayed hard during the time I watched it. It was very upsetting."
- MrsG0529, RaptureReady


"We can repeat that experiment in the lab today. But you can not repeat a fish turning into a mammal. Or a reptile becoming a bird. Or spontaneous generation. Or something coming from nothing. So you still don't have a good grasp on the philosphy behind the science."

['How do you know the bible is God's word?'] "The Bible says so… The word inspiration literally means 'God-breathed' in the Greek. And because Scripture is breathed out by God, it is true and inerrant."
- John6:63, RaptureReady


"I’m a Bible believing Christian, with that being said, quoting scripture from various books of the Bible is all the proof I need."
- John6:63, RaptureReady

"... we need to keep in mind that the theory of Darwinian evolution was developed to specifically counter the central theological principle of Christianity."
- beeblebrox, RaptureReady


"You need to remember that we should expect this behavior because unbelievers are only doing what comes naturally. They are reacting in a way that should not surprise us. If your father is not God, then your father is Satan. Don't forget that."
- Sojourner, RaptureReady


[On the evolution of flight] "Uh huh, so their armpit skin and webbed toes allowed them to glide, and the animals decided that the coolness of gliding outweighed the disadvantages of being a freak (like being a virgin your whole life), so they threw themselves into radioactive ooze, transforming into assorted Muppets and finally acheiving the pinnacle of evolution, becoming the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! "
- Raptor, BlizzForums


"The Bible has been shown to be historically accurate in its statements. While at first blush this would seem to be a less than stellar proof of God's inspiration of the Bible, it is notable that other religious writings often are not."
- beeblebrox, RaptureReady


['Why not be a Christian evolutionist?] "Because God created us in His image, and I'd say calling God's image that of primordial sludge to be a major insult. "
- Magus55, RaptureReady


"Then why did God give the commandment to observe the Sabbath on the 7th day ( Saturday) ? If Genesis wasn't a literal 7 day week, we would still be celebrating the Sabbath, every day all year long for the past 3000 years."

"Um, if it isn't for God it's against Him. So I would have to say considering the down right lies involved in evolutionists, and their 'beliefs' yes, it has been planted in peoples minds hundreds of years ago by satan. Satan is the prince of darkness, the deceiver of the nations, a murderer, the author of lies, so if I hear anything that goes against the Bible and what's in it, I am inclined to think satan has had to have influenced (corrupted) peoples minds."

"I have a very hard time telling my kids that what they are learning in science is NOT true, and if we did evolve from monkeys, then WHY are monkeys still here? Did they like being monkeys verses being a person? Did they not have what it takes to evolve? As far as coming from a rock or suddenly appearing from a molecule, well I for one think it's pure ignorance to believe that, and I will not argue with ignorance."

"We know that there is a fire coming that is going to cleanse this world of ALL unGodlyness. I was wondering, if that cleansing fire were to go though this board and burn up any part of these posts that was not of God, what would be left? Would there be anything at all, other than maybe a scripture here and there?"

"Ahhhhh!! Now here is where the [church of] L[atter]D[ay]S[aints] resembles the R[oman]C[atholic]C[hurch] so much. superstitious, hocus pocus, mumbo jumbo pagan junk of satan. so sad."

"My claim is that the God of the Bible created all men. This statement must be either affirmed or denied. I will limit this argument to two types of people those who affirm this statement and those who deny it. Those who deny it need to give proof that God doesn’t exist."

"Well when I was not a theist I did pretty much whatever I wanted, ie sleep with as many women as I wanted etc. If I stopped believing in objective moral values I would definitely start doing that one again if I thought that any feeling of it being wrong was just an illusion. Just being honest."

"You see, life isn't just chemicals. If it were, you could take a recently dead organism and get it to live again, simply by jump-starting the molecules somehow. But that doesn't work, does it? Instead, we know that life is something apart from the chemicals; something somehow imposed on them which uses them but is not them."

"Experiments of this type confirm my feeling that the Flood had to be instituted to wipe out all of mankind due to ancient genetic experimentation of the kind arising today that eventually polluted virtually all the genomes of the natural order. There is a hint of this in the words of scripture that mentioned that "Noah was perfect in his generations", and thus was able to restart the human race to a relatively unpolluted genetic state. This would also explain why so-called 'innocent' life had to be terminated as well."

"Far better evidence the Quran is false is the inability of any Muslim to produce a photo of a massive iron gate, which the Quran says would be destroyed by Allah, immediately before Judgement Day. If this gate never existed, then the Quran is false. If it had been destroyed already, then the Quran is false again because Judgement Day has been greatly postponed. No Muslim can show on a map where that there is a country so landlocked that one mountain pass is the only way an army can get out."

"Dino's were land animals that were created on day 6 with the rest of the land animals. They went on board the ark with Noah and have since gone extinct. There are plenty of mentions in the bible of 'dragons' which would make sense since the word 'dinosaur' wasent invented when the KJV was written."
- LisaAnn, RaptureReady


"Also i always wondered: back in medieval times, knights & dragon slayers??? Y wouldn't the 'dragons' be dinsaurs???"
- SalutetheHeavens, RaptureReady


"Even the largest dinosaurs would have fit on the ark as babies, and yes, I think that reference to 'dragons' in ancient times was a direct reference to what we call dinosaurs today. I even believe that some still exist today."

"We'll see how suave and logical you are when your burning in everlasting fire, I'm sure your so called logic may impress Satan, maybe with enough of this so called logic (doesn't impress me at all, amateurs never do), you won't be up for barbeque of the week in your new brimstone village."
