I don’t see the correlation between evolution and moral relativism. I evolution may have been God’s plan. I’m not a moral relativist.
I appreciate your thoughtful reply.
“Gods plan”, in that context requires NO FREE WILL.
Free will is something that I have both struggle with and examined extensively.
that took place in the 1600's.
I can’t hardly express my sadness as my favorite Christian artist disappeared for soo many years only to re-emerge to declare herself as a lesbian.
Jennifer Knapp.
She wrote from her heart and the bible and while guilt was always present in her lyrics, I never imagined that she would fall victim to darker side.

Along my personal journey I overcame the evolutionists, the New Age Buddhists, only to be left with the question of Satan.
Is Satan real ?
How in Gods creation can Satan even exist ?
If Satan doesn’t exist can God exist ?
Is there right without wrong ?
Luke 17:1-3 (NIV)
17 Jesus said to his disciples: “Things that cause people to stumble are bound to come, but woe to anyone through whom they come. 2 It would be better for them to be thrown into the sea with a millstone tied around their neck than to cause one of these little ones to stumble. 3 So watch yourselves.
“If your brother or sister[a] sins against you, rebuke them; and if they repent, forgive them.
Judgment Day is going to be a bummer for Matthew.
What part of the country do you live in....I’m curious because you sound likeyou might come from California where some priest actually allow such nonsense....thanks
They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. 11 For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie 12 and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness.
2 Thess 2:9-12 (NIV)
I said bug off, don’t bother me...
I said bug off, don’t bother me
very clever.
And then there is this.
Climbing up on Solsbury Hill
I could see the city light
Wind was blowing, time stood still
Eagle flew out of the night
He was something to observe
Came in close, I heard a voice
Standing stretching every nerve
Had to listen had no choice
I did not believe the information
(I) just had to trust imagination
My heart going boom boom boom
“Son,” he said “Grab your things,
I’ve come to take you home.”
To keep in silence I resigned
My friends would think I was a nut
Turning water into wine
Open doors would soon be shut
So I went from day to day
Tho’ my life was in a rut
“Till I thought of what I’d say
Which connection I should cut
I was feeling part of the scenery
I walked right out of the machinery
My heart going boom boom boom
“Hey” he said “Grab your things
I’ve come to take you home.”
(Back home.)
When illusion spin her net
I’m never where I want to be
And liberty she pirouette
When I think that I am free
Watched by empty silhouettes
Who close their eyes but still can see
No one taught them etiquette
I will show another me
Today I don’t need a replacement
I’ll tell them what the smile on my face meant
My heart going boom boom boom
“Hey” I said “You can keep my things,
they’ve come to take me home.”

Discuss the issues all you want, but do not make it personal.
And you removed my post ?
Yes, you quoted a removed post. On the Religion Forum, posts containing potty language - or references to potty language - are removed as soon as I see them.
Ok,
Clearly I was quoting a subsequently removed “Potty language” post.
My reply however, was to a post (potty as it was), to something that I actually saw and therefore was not yet removed.
How could I have replied to it otherwise?
You removed my Non-potty response because I included his words as a reference.
In the future I will edit the “Potty” language from the poster that I am replying too.
I told him to not bother me further... I didn’t take it personal...
I'm sure it is, but didn't think they would be so radical about it. Due to the Bible, either Testament, not being taught and preached in many churches, the wolves can get away with bringing in any false teaching they choose. The people are ignorant as they do not read on their own, especially in the U.S. We were warned.
Rep. Charles Rangel: Republicans risk eternal damnation with welfare cuts
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3070808/posts
Speaking of the downtrodden, Mr. Rangel continued: “He said he was hungry, you didn’t give him food stamps. He was thirsty, you didn’t purify the water. He was naked, you didn’t give him Social Security. And God knows he was sick and you gave him no comfort... Can you imagine if 60 million Catholics became missionaries just for the poor, the sick and the uninsured?”
Sounds like Mr. Rangel is “violating separation of church and state.” Shouldn’t the ACLU be all angry at him about that?
