Can a christian answer a question without bringing the damn bible into it.?

I'm Pagan, and I agree with you. It is seriously annoying that Christians can't answer a single question without quoting the Bible or damning someone to Hell. It happens in most of the Questions on Yahoo! Answers. All I can say is to deal with it, because they still have no substantial proof for their religion. However, Quantum Physics has proven Paganism. Oh well. Their lives, live and let live, right?

Wow, you need to go to a religious chat room!! I am a Christian, but goodness me, I did not want to read a sermon! I read my Bible so I know about it. Where is the question? And satan does not control any "rolls" in my life. Jesus lives in my heart. By the by, learn to spell and quit preaching to us!!

Dude, your obviously asking the wrong people. Try asking yourself. Logic would destroy religion, but unfortunatly, it probably never will; just look at your answers!!(synfi excluded)

Nope, not possible.  It is simply a work of fiction, albeit a very interesting one.\n\nThe bible was created merely as a means to further control and establish fear in the people of its time.

actually yes Jesus asked questions to make people think about their own actions. it's impossible to go your whole life and not ask a question even if it's just "where's the bathroom?" even if it doesn't say in the Bible he asked questions the Bible doesn't have every word uttered by Jesus in it.

I think you are exactly right.  You either accept him or reject him and I chose to accept him.  When I answer most of the bible based questions, I also mention that they should talk to someone in person because I think a conversation is better than a written response.  That way they can ask questions and the pastor/whomever can answer what they do not understand.  God Bless You.

No, I really don't know what you mean...are you referring to Christians or who? I have no idea, otherwise I would do my best to properly respond to your query.

Looks like you answered it yourself. However, my personal opinion is that I really don't care what it says, because I don't believe in it anyway.\n\nThe bible is all I need.

You will tend to get pat answers becaus that is all that some Christians, and people of other beliefs, have heard or learned.  I try to do as the Bible says and be ready to give answers to the faith that lies within me.  It is tough to figure out other ways to explain things and sometimes the only answers are pat answers.  I like having answers that can be associated to the world as well.  IE.  Pat answer to why you should not engage in premarital sex...The Bible says not to.  I will say that, but will also point out STD's, pregnancy, comparison of lovers, etc.  I try to think out answers as the Jewish do.  They study the Talmud very closely and have a very strong knowledge of their beliefs.

Yes Anxius, you are right about Christian faith : it is essentially blind.  The lady above me who teaches bible to kids, in the process teaches them how to bluff themselves.  There's usually a way round hard questions which is made to sound righteous but which is really dishonest.  If even such a way cannot be found, Christians are told that it's a "Christian mystery" : that one is impossible to beat, and if you try, and continue to ask irreverent and blasphemous(!) questions, you will not be welcome in the class.\nIt's even more restrictive in the mosque.\nIs it different in the synagogue?\nDon't get me wrong folks - I am a little black, but still one of the sheep.

I think some one that can talk about there believe and back it with out the use of scripture deserves a lot more Kudos' than the people that do.\n\nAnd your question is only vaguely sensible.

if you refrain from saying God, faith and beliefs when answering this question,then there can be no answer to your question, that is what  the bible teaches.. without GOD there is no hope and without beliefs there is no GOD !! a person has to believe in his heart without scientific proof that there is a GOD and without the bible how can they teach????

Relax? I don't think they can some of the nonbelievers don't answer with harsh words I've seen about two that simply give you their opinion like parrot, and I've Got A Ruler but some others seem to just be mean may be it's the ones who answer with mean words really don't know why they don't believe so that's why the answers are things like I don't believe because of the Christians, or God is stupid like you, or my favorite stop preaching to me, oooohhhhh but let those same ppl ask a question like Are all Christians stupid? Are you a bible Thumper? It's alrighty then....\n\n I liked the question..... after all it was simply a question.

i think u need to open the bible and read it , u are taking things way out of context. maybe read something before u start asking these questions that even if we gave u the answer u still won't understand. im not going to try to explain the whole bible to u, u can't just take 1 verse and go from there about what its talking about

I am a Christian, and I do not believe the things you have written in your question.  I do not put myself above others because I am still figuring everything out for myself.  You stating that all Christians do this proves that you are uninformed.  The other points you made seem to point to the fact that you may be just as narrow minded as those you accuse.  Are you only wanting someone to agree with you?

Not sure the scriptures say anything about this. If someone tells you that they can, ask them where in the bible it talks about it. Have them verify it and explain it to ya. Don't just take someone's word for it.
