No, it is my job to plant a seed, nothing more nothing less...and hell is a choice, as long as you have breath in your body you have a choice to believe or not. If Jesus himself could walk the earth and not convince everyone He met to become a Christian how could I? Funches...I am a woman and with that comes a level of complaining no matter what I do, I try and avoid it as much as possible, yet it does seep out now and again, my bad... I thought it was the man's job to plant a seed. Have I been doing it wrong all these years???

not complaining, just stating a fact that not all religious people fall into his category, and my first post said nothing remotely close to a complaint, I just answered your question. As far as I am concerned, I spoke my peace and am done. I think the problems start when people read into others statements, the main question was do you think rapture will end christianity, not do you believe in God the father and Jesus His son, or who can twist more words around for them to say what I want them too, right? So there is alot of off topic debat going on and there will be no winner today, wether because of my faith or because of the finality of death one day each of us will know the answers we look for, and everyone has a right to their own beliefs, I can end by saying that sometimes you just know that you know, I wasn't there the day Jesus was crucified, or with Mary when she went to his empty tomb, but I was there the moment I asked Jesus to come in my life and make me His own. And no one ever said believeing in God would be easy, just worth it. I have a joy in my heart and testimony to share from the grace God has shown me. Today it is my decision to praise the Lord a conscous decision I make every moment of my life, I sin, and I fall short everyday, I don't seek perfection, I seek the best I can do. In my faith I am suppose to outwardly acknowledge Christ, with words and works, at the end of today I will lay down in my bed in my apartment, and have to be accountable for my day, I have told you what I believe, not made judgements on you or what you believe, and I am o.k. with that. It is not my job as a follower of Christ to brain wash you or try and make you think my way is a better way to believe, it is just to show you there is another option, so like my brother before you says, on the day of judgement you cannot point to me and say..."but Jennifer never told me, I never knew"..... By your own religious dogma, anyone who hears "the word" and rejects it goes to Hell. So, by telling non-believers about "the word" and not convincing them that it's true and correct, aren't you condemning them to Hell, via "the word"? No, for it is still their own free will to either believe or not. The person spreading the word can not literally change that. It has to be done willingly by the person it is given to. So...what happens if someone is born, lives and dies, with out hearing "the word"? |

But of course they are.
Every time my laptop w/ Vista downloads the "updates", my computer runs a little slower and a little goofier. A few weeks ago, the computers running the Iranian nuke reactors crashed. A few days ago, it was revealed they were running on a Windows platform and someone exploited a few flaws in the security. Yesterday, Microsoft released about 60 megs of bug fixes, I mean updates for Windows XP and above. It took my laptop 3 tries to get them. It crashed twice. Once during the download, once during the instalation. And by crash I mean hard locked. I can only imagine how screwed up my registery is now... I love Microsoft ever so much... |

BTW, Atheists will have the hardest time with shrooms, for they will realize that the creator does exist, and they will most likely have a hard time coping with it. An atheist won't be an atheist after using shrooms... he will become an agnostic, for he will realize that there is a father creator, yet he will realize there is no way to prove it other than to offer people the same experience that he shared. Get my drift? you really have no idea who I am, do you... |

I just want to throw in my 2 cents...I am not religiously intolerant of anyone. I have friends that are gay, bisexual, hell even lesbians that are married to each other, I befriend lots of people, perfection and religious ideals, color, not prerequisites to be my friend, I even keep the liars and cheats as my friends. Why? Because everyone is different, we were made that way, and I can love and appreciate people for who they are on their journey in life, I have my morals and standards, and you have yours, I have choose the path religiously that I want to follow, doesn't make me superior or right, it just makes me, well me. In the Bible it tells me to share my faith with others so I do, I don't preach much, and I hardly ever get aggrivated and have all night arguements, but if I respect you for your beliefs can't you do the same for me?>?? I can respect YOU far more than what superstitions you believe. |

No it wasn't lol, Jesus DID NOT commit suicide. Jesus was crucified for spreading what those people seen as blasphemy. Which was in reality the truth and the new covenant between people and our father. so John 3:16 is wrong?....God didn't give the world his only begotton son? Yes, God sent his only begotten son so whosever believes in shall not parish but have ever lasting life. Does not say God sent his only begotten son to be hung on a cross. God sent Jesus to teach us of the new covenant. ok..since every bible I've ever seen specifically states that God "gave" his only begotton son....now all you have to do is point out which bible states that God "sent" his only begotton son Gave and sent are not synonyms for crucified nor mean anything of the same. Cowboy..trying to replace God's word "gave" with "sent" shows how you once again got catch telling another lie about the bible when you said that you wouldn't when you got busted telling the lie about no children drown in the great flood because they were all on noah's ark....what's the point of debating with you if you are going to lie and askew the truth...isn't that what people claim that Satan does What Cowboy is doing is trying to give a testimony about the goodness and mercy of God, but he is falling into the snares and traps that you and others are trying to set for him. What YOU are doing is more characteristic of satan than Cowboy's efforts. You and others continually mention the persecutions and witch hunts of the past. Yet... you are so guilty of these acts yourselves. Your life could be required of you this day, are you ready? Yes, someday Christians will be taken away... but what remains will in no way be a utopia Most believers, realize that most of you will reject the WORD of God, but nevertheless, we are required to share the Good News so that you are without excuse at the judgement. It is indeed coming to a close Is your computer screen like 3 inches across or what? |

Without getting to far into Bible debate, to answer your question, will the Rapture rid the world of Christians, my answer is No...because if your are talking rapture as the day God calls His believers home to heaven and the seals are open for open for the last days...No way Christianity will multiply like wild fire... And I am a believer of Christ Jesus, I believe He is God the Fathers son and paid the price of my sins on a cross and on the third day he rose again. I can't believe that a question about the day of rapture was put in those terms, if you believe there is gonna be a day like that then you have to believe a little in the Bible. All men of science are gonna call that day something else, only believers will call it rapture. And I can't say anything for anyone else but in my opinion if I read and didn't believe in the Bible and a world wide event like rapture came, I would have faith in droves...and after the rapture when the revelation prophesies started coming true, I would find faith. In those last days alot of people are going to be looking for something, humans inately have to look for something as a higher power, something to make sense of things, and the fact rapture as described thousands of years ago, will make alot of people reconsider our religion of Christianity, especially when they look at who was raptured.... On that day, I will so join Satan's honorable fight against the supremely unjust and dictatorial God. And I'll be driving a lot of new cars... |

Regardless of our unique differences, we all must come together as one unit against oppression. Our whole lives, we have lived a conquer-and-divide lifestyle, and it is time to rejoin as one unit together in perfect harmony using our individual talents for the benefit of the world. I love you all as my brothers and sisters. Speak for yourself. And really, you're not my type. sorry... |

Would you also agree that people must come together in this time of turmoil? Yes we must all stay together. There is strength in numbers. There are also unruly mobs in numbers. Numbers scare me. |

Did you know that Paul Stamets(mycologist) has proven that human beings are genetically related to the mushroom? http://www.ted.com/talks/lang/eng/paul_stamets_on_6_ways_mushrooms_can_save_the_world.html Well, there is the link for ya. Also, did you know that the mycelium fungus makes up 25% of the Earth's crust? Therefore, are you saying that the very thing that we as humans are genetically related to is a drug? Did you know that psilocybin is a DMT compound? Furthermore, did you know that when you are in deep sleep, your brain releases 4 different kinds of LSD/DMT(article from Boston Globe) allowing you to dream? The only thing psilocybin mushrooms allow you to do is to dream while you are consciously awake. So, it is not a drug sir... It is a natural substance that was used by ancient shamans for thousands of years in order to have visions of the past, present and future. Reality is only a matter of perception, but to become aware to this fact is extremely difficult unless you have ingested this magical substance yourself. Only then can you be aware of the point of this message without applying judgement and ridicule. Yes we are "related" to everything on the planet in one way or other. We are all one, weather it be with the planet, animals, people around, and so on. We are all made up of the same things, we are all one. How very American Indian of you. |

Confusion is present. I have searched as many versions of the book of man called the 'bible'. I have yet to find this 'rapture' mentioned in one. Not only that but the timelines mentioned by 'scholars' of this book (the bible) do not fit the scientific facts. It will be at least 4 billion more years before the earth 'falls' into the lake of fire (or is 'flung' into the abyss). By that time MY decendants will be watching from the stars. Life moves allways forward. only mankind keeps dragging its feet. The bible may not use the word rapture but it does indeed tell of the rapture. Here's one of the area's in which it's spoke of. I tell of more if needed. 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 16For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: 17Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 18Wherefore comfort one another with these words. So when that happens, can I have your car? |

They won't be killed. The only way to die is by not receiving the gift of heaven. They will be taken home. And yes it will be an immense disaster to those left, that's what it's about. Punishment for their disobedience. They will seek death and fail to find it. jeez...enough of this stuff that people don't get killed.....sit in a tub of water with a live electric plug and see if you are right ... Yes I would then die, for that would be suicide and suicide is a one way ticket to no where. and that is the same thing that Jesus did ...he placed himself into a position to die which is the same as you did in the bath tub ...so that would mean that Jesus is dead two totally different things. Jesus sacrificed every waking second of his life for us and in the end sacrificed his mortal life up for us. That is why we don't have to sacrifice things to show our repentance for the sacrifice of Jesus was the ultimate sacrifice. You just have to accept this sacrifice and it will be a sacrifice for you as well. I would be doing nothing but destroy myself, no sacrifice, nothing. "Jesus sacrificed every waking second of his life for us"?? Really? So...how come so much of his supposed life is missing from your holy book? Jesus, The College Years is nowhere to be found. Although I have heard he was a hit at parties. He'd make a bag of chips last all night. And that water to wine trick. What college age kids would get tired of that? hmm...now that I think about it, sounds like a great idea for a sitcom. |

Is it just me or is this constant bikering getting old? You're not ever going to convince people like Cowboy that the christian concept of God is evil. You're never going to convince people like Abra and Funches that the christian dogma is true and good. It seems like, for the most part, the same people keep saying the same things over and over again. No matter what the topic is. Isn't this pretty close to the definition of insanity? Or to some peoples' definition of Hell? Just an observation.... nope..not trying to convince anyone ...just using it as a way to understand delusion and write script for a tv project called "The Book of Lore' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IO_zhR2OPQI ah...well then, carry on. |

technology gives you power as well and as for god he could have been an alien from some other part of the galaxy doing a cloning experiment and we are the out come so how can you hold truth to a book that's basically a bunch of he says she says bull crap Technology gives no one power of anything. Technology only gives us a way to control some of the power God has given us freely. We have the power to learn and critical thinking. And is why we've evolved so much further then the animals of this planet. We have the power of knowledge. Except there is no scientific evidence of a world wide flood ever happening... No evidence they have found YET. We haven't learned everything there is, we are still finding new discoveries. With finding the new discoveries theories change, law's change, alot of things change with the new findings. So who's to say that one day they won't find the evidence for such?  Yeah. Like the no evidence found YET of tiny unicorns living in my sock drawer.
Look, we have really good geological evidence of the weather going back 100's of thousands of years. From all over the planet. A world wide flood would've left evidence everywhere. Such a mass extinction, in such relatively recent times geologically speaking, could NOT go unnoticed. It just couldn't. Our scientists just aren't that incompetent. |

Not from apes, but we have evolved. Evolution happens everyday with a simple example of tanning. If one is in the sun alot, their skin evolves and turns darker. If people are in a colder environment, they evolve and tend to have more body fat and so forth. God made this body to withstand and be able to live in any environment on this planet. Damn...I was so hoping progress was made. It's clear you have no understanding of what evolution is. Oh well. |
