i would ask god for a Charzard.

If there was a god, I would ask him why I should believe something that was written long before people were burning witches, which by the way, don't exsist either.

I would ask "Why" after each answer the designer of everything gives us to perhaps attain the most knowledge we can possibily get to know all the answers we have been asking for thousands of years.

i`d ask her for oral sex

then afterwards, i`d say "ive had better" and leave

i`d also refer to her as wench

can something come from nothing?

true. they were hanged in the name of god. god's will be done.

Men claimed it was gods will, does not make it so. What about the many Blessings and charities spread around the world in the name of God, they far outnumber the atrocities, yet some still want to condemn all who follow the word.

well i for one don't condemn individuals within a group. i'm sure there is a member of hell's angles somewhere that only joined the group because they have the neetest motorcycles of any other club. he loves the black leather vest but otherwise only participates in the charities that they do support. he'd likely live up to my moral standard. but as i condemn the doctrine that many hell's angels adhere to and commit crimes against humanity in the name of that doctrine, i condemn christianity and any religion where some of it's adherants commit attrocities in the name of their god. if i am to accept your claim that people just say they commit these crimes in the name of god but they really don't commit the crimes in the name of god then why should i accept that other people do good things for charity in the name of god? both groups claim to do their deeds, good or bad in the name of god. you believe that only the good christian is telling the truth regarding their motivation. i think both groups are telling the truth about why they believe their actions were correct. it is THEIR belief is it not?

for the believer everything that takes place would not take place but for the grace of God ....a believer should have no complaints with what takes place in the world because it's all part of "God's Divine Plan"

so i've been told. by god fearing faithful no matter how harmful or good their actions. no reason to think one is sincere and not the other.

In religion there can be no good or evil ...there is only sin against the god

a. You don't know much about history
b. I know for a fact that, today, a lot of christians will only act civil or charitable just as long as they believe you think like they do.

kinda screws up that whole "freewill" thingy for them, doesn't it.

I'll say it with a rhyme

since there are bibical prophecies to be full filled
that in itself neutralize "free Will"

free will is nothing more then giving us the choice to do what we want to. Prophecies are just forseen things to happen. Things God sees and knows will happen. God makes certian things happen, and it is our freewill to do in a good godly manner, or turn away and sin.

Cowboy....that's called making a decision ....believe it or not even animals can do that ..

"forseen to happen" means that there is nothing you can do to stop it from happening ...that's why prophecy cancel out "Free Will" ...you simply can't have both

Cowboy....if God makes certain things happen it only proves that there is no "Free Will"

you can pray to god for how great you think he is but because of "Free Will" you are not supposed to ask god for anything

if you do ask god for something it becomes "hubris" and shows that you have no faith in God or in his Divine Plan

if you claim that your prays were answered when God is not supposed to interfer...you are then either playing the role of God or using "faith" as Witchcraft

your if then statements involve HUGE leaps of logic, as usual.

God can make certain things happen and it has nothing to do with free will, for example, making flowers grow, causing a butterfly to cross my path,,etc,,,

because of free will , I am supposed to choose to turn to God instead of Man,,,not sure where you get the idea that free will rules out prayer

Interfere, implies action that harms or otherwise impedes a person. Praying for Gods guidance or assistance and receiving it is not a good example of interference.

As far as free will vs choice, on a very basic or philosophical basis they can argued to be similar. From a christian basis, however, free will is more than JUST choice, it is choice that relates to Conscious,,or right and wrong decisions. Chosing to do right or wrong(by God) is something that is unique for Christians and the context in which the FREE WILL concept is used by Christians.
