Just trying to explain Protestant dogma, not that it is not all over the place with countless, contradictory sects in AmericaFaith alone? Doesn't establish anyone in the beloved.
This is completely true.That's not true at all. Not remotely true. Why would you say such a patently absurd thing like this?
No I don't. Why do you accuse me of things I have never, ever said?And yet you whine and moan when Christians do vote their conscience.
You can vote for anything you want, using whatever motivation is important to you.So.one can vote for things in your idea of democracy provided its not anything religious you disagree with.
What would a larger universe reveal that our current knowledge does not?If you're waiting for a larger universe? I'm not sure you appreciate how big this one is. There's a lot more evidence there than you and I are ever gonna have time to sort through in our lifetimes.
Perhaps they're responding to any of the very numerous books that our friends who called theselves "the new atheists" have been writing over recent years.
If the new atheists aren't portraying atheism as it really is in their many, many books, you can hardly blame Christians for that.
Like I say it's a personal thing.
Radical abortion fundies.And she has said that she wants no limits on abortion at all..
So you really like it when Christians vote their conscience. Who woulda thunk it?No I don't. Why do you accuse me of things I have never, ever said?
In a vote some people win, while others lose. That is called life.You can vote for anything you want, using whatever motivation is important to you.
But it is unConstitutional to enshrine your religious beliefs into law. As well as unfair to people who don't share your religion.
Where do your morals come from?What would a larger universe reveal that our current knowledge does not?
What we know of the universe is science-derived, and provides no evidence or involvement of a god, and more knowledge will not change that.
Belief in god is faith-based and the existence of god cannot be proven or supported by physical evidence.
This is why there are people who don't believe.
The people who believe are those taught from an early age to believe. And the children of Christians are likely to be Christians as adults, and Jewish children will be Jewish adults, and the same for Muslims and Buddhists, etc.
I know that God created the universe. Do I have fewer rights than you?What would a larger universe reveal that our current knowledge does not?

I keep saying that ALL citizens, including Christians (like me) should vote their conscience.9
So you really like it when Christians vote their conscience. Who woulda thunk it?
But you whine and moan when Christians do exactly that. That is in the majority of your posts.I keep saying that ALL citizens, including Christians (like me) should vote their conscience.
And you keep forgetting that.
I will bet you will forget this over and over again...
And you think this is a good thing or a bad thing?People change their beliefs all the time.
Unlike you, I would not lump them all in one group.And you think this is a good thing or a bad thing?
I defy you to find a post of mine in which I complain when Christians vote their conscience.But you whine and moan when Christians do exactly that. That is in the majority of your posts.
You have called them uneducated.I defy you to find a post of mine in which I complain when Christians vote their conscience.
Show me where I said that.
I may not like what people vote for, but I most definitely defend their right to vote for whatever they want.
How vague can you get?Unlike you, I would not lump them all in one group.
In post 666 (you will miss the irony) in your passive aggressive way you were condescending in your analysis of why faith based believers vote like they doI defy you to find a post of mine in which I complain when Christians vote their conscience.
Show me where I said that.
I may not like what people vote for, but I most definitely defend their right to vote for whatever they want.
