Quote (WhatIsTrue @ Dec. 16 2009,07:04)Stu,Have you chosen not to answer my questions, or are you still formulating an answer?Sounds like he has made a conscious decision not to answer.Yet he rules out any kind of consciousness in the processes that brought about the universe.Double standard.

Oh, I should mention BD, that it says “come out of her my people” when talking of the Whore. The keywords here are MY PEOPLE.

bd, I disagree with the Trinity doctrine. I believe it is a doctrine of the whore. So this site is helping those who are caught up in her ways using the very scriptures that they supposedly hold dear.But other faiths voice skepticism of scripture and what is written therein.Given that, it is logical to have a place where people who believe…[Read more]

Quote (bodhitharta @ Dec. 18 2009,13:03)Other faiths are not doubts or scepticism.They are when it comes to the bible and what is written in there. You have even expressed skepticism yourself regarding the preservation and teachings in the bible have you not?Heaven Net was from it's inception a site where people could question what they were…[Read more]

Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Jan. 24 2007,19:14)Every Tongue Shall Confess…Truly every knee shall bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus is Lord!Amen.Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father.Notice it doesn't say that “all will confess that Jesus is God” like you do.To put this into context so that you are not confused into t…[Read more]

Quote (Constitutionalist @ Dec. 17 2009,18:40)Quote (Ed J @ Dec. 16 2009,19:43)Hi Everybody,Now that David is back, I think this might be a lively discussion.The 14 Commandments of the JEHOVAH Witnesses Organization; are there really 14?These are based entirely on the teachings found on Page 122 of ‘What does the bible teach?'1) Thou shalt have n…[Read more]

Hi karmarie.The problem there is this board wasn't created for the wide road rather the narrow one.Even the free for all forums end up being a place where people express doubts about the narrow path.So I see it working quite well in its current form.

Isn't that what we have now BD?An area where all can post and express their doubts and skepticism.

Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Dec. 18 2009,07:55)“Image of the invisible God” or “God made visible”.I choose the first one. Image of the invisible God. (Image of God).

Oh great, at least you had a laugh. Pity about the coffee. Might need to order another one. A coffee in the morning is very important.I would like to have a Mocha, but I am off to bed now and would never sleep if I pumped in some caffeine now. (It is 11.00pm here.)BTW: I can move the topic if you want.

Show me a book that prophecies in the name of Jupiter and predicts the future.A large part of the bible is prophecy. If you wanted proof that the bible was a load of cobblers that would be the best place to start. It is something tangible or should I say, something that you can test.You could try and disprove that the bible didn't say that Israel…[Read more]

Hi Con.Why did you post this one in “Skeptics Place”.Why not “Truth and Tradition”. When you cross Skeptics Bridge, Stu come out from underneath and starts growling, “who is crossing my bridge, ah huh, I am going to rip your head off”. He sleeps under that bridge night and day, just waiting for a poor soul who happens to pass this way. I have even…[Read more]

Quote (thethinker @ Dec. 17 2009,13:54)(The Greek characters in bold are the definite articles. One goes with “God” and the other goes with “Jesus Christ.” Therefore, they are distinguished.)Exactly.The God and the Jesus are distinguished and not the same.God is not Jesus and Jesus is not the Most High God.Jesus is the son of God.

Yawn.Wake me up if Stu ever gets interesting.

Where is the edge of the world? New Zealand?Perhaps when you travel in a straight line for long enough you end up back where you started.If the universe is infinite then maybe it is an infinite circle/sphere. Travelling on the circumference of an infinite circle would appear to us as a straight line. So if we travel in a straight line through…[Read more]

Quote (Stu @ Dec. 13 2009,22:04)Exactly the same applies to the ‘saved’!  The moment you will no longer die is the moment your ‘life’ (whatever it is) loses all motive and meaning.God's love is what sustains those who have eternal life. Without it, eternal life would be a curse.And:Everlasting destruction simply means destroyed forever. It is th…[Read more]

Quote (Stu @ Dec. 12 2009,07:59)Enjoy your life because there is probably no god.That is an oxymoron.Enjoy means to have joy and joy comes from God.Without the ability to have joy, you couldn't enjoy anything.When people say ignore God and enjoy life, what they are really saying is ignore God and sin.After all. To enjoy life is what God created us…[Read more]
