And let me say for the record that if i generalized about anyone in the heat of the moment, i apologize. I do not think that radicals of the Christian faith represent the whole, the same as i don't think that terrorists represent the entire Muslim community. I'm sorry if i was harsh on...

Not every Christian feels the need to force their beliefs down the throats of others....lucky for the WORLD, in my opinion. That much ignorance would be too much for me to handle, that's for sure. Once again....Marriage is ALREADY a shred of what it was formerly....Marriage started as what...

Does. It. Say. Sin? No. So why is that word spewn at our fellow human beings out of the mouths of people who claim "the bible says so"? What are those other things listed???? One stands out to me......the part about how those who are verbally abusive won't inherit the kingdom of God. You don't...

Did you read the article? People said the same thing about Marriage itself when compared to celibacy a long time ago....but now all of the sudden it's "Mess with marriage and your perverting the theology behind it!". The "theology" behind it has already been compromised before. From the...

Wow...just wow. You sound like a good Christian, spewing hatred and prejudice. And "who cares how it's worded"?! I would imagine that a great number of people care how it's worded....but hey what does the guy who wrote the article know, right? He only dedicated his life to "how it's worded". As...

It's because of one little word: Shame. We don't have it here, not in such prevalence. Asian cultures harbor a sense of pride and honor that we don't have as a whole here in the U.S. It's extremely admirable. If we had a sense of shame then people would internalize the reason for laws and the...

This is EXACTLY what i'm saying. What if i walked up to you and said "Pardon me....i just wanted to tell you that if you eat that peice of fruit you will ^&^#$&$@^*@$^". And you would say "wtf does that mean? is that a good thing or a bad thing? oh well!" To them, death and evil were another...

I'm not saying that they wouldn't learn anything from it, i'm simply saying that it wouldn't be right to punish a child in that situation if they had no idea what "hot" meant in the first place. But it doesn't sound like they would have been cognizant. How could God expect them to listen...

But...sin and evil would have to exsist for the tree of knowledge to exsist in the first place right? Also, it's not exactly free will when someone is ignorant to the consequences of their actions. What reason did they have not to trust Satan when they didn't know what evil was or how to...

Not all progressives hate Christians, I think there is ignorance from both sides. I can see how people from each extreme and everyone in between can identify ways that they feel offended by the others. What do you mean by: "Whereas progressives various faiths cost us all a lot of money."...

I don't think it causes a problem for faith at all for most people who, like you, don't take memorizing bible verses as a competition. the first article is the one i found the most compelling, the second was kind of a supplement.

My Take: Bible condemns a lot, so why focus on homosexuality? – CNN Belief Blog - CNN.com Blogs Actually, that's not in the Bible – CNN Belief Blog - CNN.com Blogs Thoughts?

What loophole? Other than the obvious risk of false samples. This is why i want to know what the consequences of a failed test are. I'm getting mixed answers. Also, even if they just get to it some other way, it's still taking a stand against people who unfortunately abuse and pervert a...

Maaaaybe if they fail the drug test they can still be considered if they go through rehab or something? Maybe that would give them incentive to get clean?

This is why i'm trying to track down more info on the consequences of failing one of these mandated drug tests. I feel like if they are charged with something then it may reduce crime levels. Although...i doubt that people who know they will fail will even bother trying to qualify.
