Absolutely not, god gives us free will to make choices and if firmly believe that's where it ends and Thur those choices he knows what the outcome will be for us.  If you are not careful and participate in the things that could cause such a disease than you suffer a possible consequence.  Hope this was of some help to you.

Hmm you bring up an intresting point.. But I would need to search it out my self.. in scripture..  So to answer your question I would say I am not too sure that is true...

Both are true. No proof required.\n\nNot many details as far as your question goes, sorry I couldn't be more specific.

There's no scripture to support this idea one way or another.  People are affected in different ways when in the spirit.  There was a man at my church who would run around the pews (admittedly it freaked me out a bit when he first did it) and a woman who would wail.  I think you'll find the most about the issue in Paul's stuff, but don't quote me on that.

As I said in a similar answer, I am thrilled with these kind of reports.  Science will soon put an end to the "miracles" of Jesus.  Eventually it will prove my belief that Jesus was a man and nothing more.  I do hope and expect that CBS and the NY Times will continue with the illuminating news pieces like they have  over the last few days.  Christians certainly have something to think about now, especially those Christians who are pro-science at the expense of their "faith." Sometimes science and faith simply do not agree despite the best efforts of some to twist words and theories to show they do.

I suppose it could be a creation of our own mind. The scientific research on those subjects don't really provide solid proof to back it up. \n\nI don't think it matters. As far as I'm concerned, believe what you want, whether it's scientific or religious, but just don't force your beliefs upon others!!

From one professor to another :), That he "walks with God" and takes his cues directly from the almighty, assuming of course if one believes in him/her. This is the kind of Neanderthal thinking that, in my opinion, exemplifies why church and state should ALWAYS be separate. Is that illogical enough for you?

Because one of them follows the general guidelines of scientific theory and one of them doesn't.  One of them can be backed up by thousands of documents of supporting evidence, the other ends with "faith" as the answer.  Trying to equate the two is silly.

you should drop them both because neither is real. there is only one god and that is God. following what you are now will only lead to more and more confusion. read the Bible and with time you will see clearly.

First of all, you are to be commended for struggling to find the truth amidst misinformation and predjudices! Titus 2:7 says in "all things show yourself uncorrupted in your teaching,showing seriousness and speech which cannot be condemned, so that the man on the opposing side may get ashamed,having nothing vile to say about us." So keep up the good work!     When I study my Watchtower, I read it once, just to read it.Then I go through it with my daughter and we answer the questions together. The third time I go through it, I look up the scriptures mentioned and usually write them in the margins of my magazine. That way,even later, I can always go back and look in that magazine and see at a glance what scripures were brought out,the definitions of any words I did not understand or the pronunciation of any Biblical name I couldn't get right( which I also write in the margins) I also underline in pencil (I use colored pencils,different colors have different meanings for me)the scriptures in the Bible that have any sort of special meaning for me.  These are just MY studying methods;you will come into your own in time!! Good luck to you,and your efforts to come into the truth please Jehovah God more than you could know!!  By the way, real Christian-like ,your comments,Rev,Kipp. I'm sure God is real proud of you...

Personally, I think it's a very strange statement.  Both sexes have had enormous impact on humanity down through history.  We can learn much from both men and women.

I am a southern Baptist and I live in the south now. I lived in California most of my life and I actually never realized that so many don't believe in God. It tells us in God's Holy Bible this will be the case but I never actually was around that many who didn't believe. I find it absolutely amazing that so many are so ignorant. I am so very happy to be one of the few who believe and not the other way around. I feel sorry for those who refuse to listen and turn a deaf ear to God's message to us all.

EXCELLENT point!  Wow, I've never thought of that.\n\nReminds me of this verse that always creeped me out when I was a christian.  2 Thes. 2 :11   And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie\n\nSeems kinda odd to have god up there trying to trip us up.  The big guy needs to up his meds.  Bi-polar disease is no laughing matter god!

Hmm...interesting. If you believe in It, the work of God is absolutely everywhere. Certainly makes sense, if "He" is hungry to show us what He's done. Guess we just have to look with the right focus.\nCommiserations on the funeral. Never good.

I think your being a bit too general. You know everything is not that black and white. There is some truth to your statement but it does ot apply to all.There are too many scientific and archaeological statements in the bible that have been proven to be true.There are too many facts to dismiss.

The Bible is not the silver bullet, of course. I do believe in God and in Jesus's ressurection, however, there are parts of the Bible that sound like pure nonsense to me while other parts contain great, true wisdoms everyone should live by.
