QUOTE(onenonly101 @ Jun 19 2004, 11:49 AM) First there are not proven scientific facts contradicting the bible. That is why it is called the Evolution Theory, becuase it cannot be proven. The Bible is real, because God made it, plus there is no way that 66 books with 44 writers written over thousands of years have not contradicted each and speak the truth. I think you meant that there are not any 'proven scientific facts' that can be accepted as truths to contradict the Bible. Theories are experiments that have been tested and yield the same result most of the time and is accepted as universal 'truths'. Even Christians must admit that an atom is the smallest unit of an element or that the human body must consists of muscles and bones... etc. Such things are universal 'truths'. However, in the case of the Bible, there are too many who would deny that the Bible is real. (Note that I did not mention God, only the Bible) QUOTE Miracles are things like surviving cancaer. It was a miracle for that doctor to understand the cancer and be able to treat it. It all comes back to God becaause he is the one who gave us the knowledge he is the one who made us. There is no such thing as just believing in yourself because you can accomplish nothing by yourself. Science can cure cancer, so can a strong will to live (<--not so sure of the second one). QUOTE Sins are not a matter of opinion, if it were then there would be no laws, no government and we would all be dead. You have to have laws and limits in order to stay alive. Some laws are meant to be altered, that's why there are amendments. Laws that are required to "stay alive" are laws that everyone must be able to agree with at some point. However, sins are a different story, I think (you would have to correct me if I'm wrong please). Lies are sins, but there are lies that will help people, 'white lies'. But I don't know if God would consider a white lie as grevious of a sin as a harmful lie. QUOTE God made the ten commandents to give us something to follow, like a rubric your teacher gives you. That you should follow these things to get that grade. Wioth the ten commmandments it gives us basic things we should follow. I've never heard of the Ten Commandments until I was in high school. I never knew commandments before then and I was still a 'good' child. (Though I'm sure we'll have different definitions of what is good). My morals kept me from doing bad things and my morals were learned from observing other non-believers. QUOTE The idea of evolution is a cult thing to me because they can all believe that science that has not proven evolution and follow it basing all their decisions on it. You can't say Chrisitianity was a cult you would have to say religion was a cult and if that is so you are in a cult because being agonistic and atheist is a religion. ryfitaDF made a very good point here. Agnostics and/or Atheists, do not worship as required in religion. Us heathens believe in concepts and the last time I checked concepts are not so hardcore as religions. QUOTE but didn't you say you believe in your self? therefore you would worship yourself There is a difference between believing and worshipping. I believe that there will be rain, is the not the same as I will worship my belief that there will be rain. |
