The Bible is perfect, hundreds of prophecies that come true, and sure you can look up "Bible contradictions" and get plenty of stuff, but those are from people only looking for contradictions, every one can be disproved by either reading the rest of the passage or just taking the time to study it. Before i came to Christ I looked up hundreds of contradictions. Eventually i could no longer deny the truth |

What the hell are you talking about? I just showed you already that Paul's prophecies were to happen in his life-time.. and they did not. |

Have you ever heard of self-fulfilling prophecy? |

The Bible consistently tells us that homosexual activity is a sin (Genesis 19:1-13; Leviticus 18:22; 20:13; Romans 1:26-27; 1 Corinthians 6:9). Romans 1:26-27 teaches specifically that homosexuality is a result of denying and disobeying God. When people continue in sin and unbelief, God “gives them over” to even more wicked and depraved sin in order to show them the futility and hopelessness of life apart from God. 1 Corinthians 6:9 proclaims that homosexual “offenders” will not inherit the kingdom of God. |

Thank you for acknowledging me. I am much more interested in your responses to the arguments concerning God's existence, but at least you responded to a theological argument I made. |

While the Bible nowhere explicitly states that masturbation is a sin, there is no question as to whether the actions that lead to masturbation are sinful. Masturbation is nearly always the result of lustful thoughts, sexual stimulation, and/or pornographic images. It is these problems that need to be dealt with. If the sins of lust, immoral thoughts, and pornography are forsaken and overcome, masturbation will become a non-issue. Many people struggle with guilty feelings concerning masturbation, when in reality, the things that led to the act are far more worthy of repentance. |

The Bible sees the denial of God as the true delusion, and this delusion extends to the atheist’s view of humanity as “good,” all evidence to the contrary notwithstanding. A sober assessment of human beings recognizes that we lie, cheat, steal, lust, complain, become embittered and resentful, envy, hate, forget, and are careless, ruthless, disrespectful, and loveless. Not only do we do all these things on a daily and hourly basis, but we do them naturally from our birth. This is what God’s Word means when it says, “There is no one who does good” (Psalm 14:3). This does not mean we never do anything positive, like obeying our parents or giving money to a church or charity. It means that we are so obviously sinful that it is silly to call human beings “good.” Nobody teaches children to lie; they do it naturally. Nobody teaches teenage boys to lust; they do it naturally. Nobody teaches the employee to resent his boss or spread malicious gossip about the coworker with whom he is competing for a promotion; he does these things naturally. Nobody teaches the wife to unjustly criticize and complain about her husband, or the husband to neglect and condescend to his wife; both do these things naturally. |

How does that answer my questions or counter my points? |

Thinking about sex sex sex sex is perfectly normal. No one should feel guilty for it. You think about sex all the time. Women's naked bodies are amazingly beautiful. You are thinking about having sex with the same sex our the opposite sex right now. How do I know? I keep talking about sex. It's okay. I know, because you are human. We are biologically wired that way. That's why there are so many billions of us on the planet. We like to have sex a lot. |

If you would kindly read the quotations I gave you earlier, he explicitly states that it is within his lifetime. Furthermore, even if it was hypothetical, why are you basing your beliefs on a hypothetical scenario. |

OK I'm going to start with this the catholic christian religion had very very dark ages during 5 centuries they tried to control human beings by telling them what to believe. That they should "ignore" there intuition to decide for yourself, when people tell you that it's to change your believes and use you, there's nothing else to it. |

I understand, I'm not saying I don't care =), if people ask me I can give help. The thing is each person chooses what to believe is true, and where their life is going , no one is doing something "WRONG" , I think this way ( it's hypocrite sometimes but I'm trying xp) they know what they're doing, to tell someone is wrong is to not trust in them, he is creating his own life, that's how I choose, but I'm not saying anyone should copy me or stuff xP , the idea is calming down and deciding what we really want. So sorry xp |
