"i spent all day thinking of how to respond" i can just imagine her sitting there constantly for a whole day with an angry but quizzical look on her face, verbally trialling attempts at a comeback. i just cannot express, how much i hate that woman. i have to wake up early in the morning...

i hate procrastination when i know that i want to work. i've found that its kind of to do with placebo, i.e. if you keep thinking you aren't able to work well, you won't. it seems like the most drop dead obvious advice ever, but i've found that times when i'm struggling with it, are just to...

Use it! Use it darling!

kfunk's right. its because Biblical 'submission' and 'submission' in a broader context suggest different things. obviously this cannot be fully blamed on society, because when explained in very simple terms, the doctrine of 'equal but different' and submission between men and women in the...

i'd agree with that proof and kfunk's revision. but the God of Christianity is a God who distinctly says that there is a choice to follow him, and that there will be many who don't choose to. For this to be possible, there will never be no absolutely irrefutable and conclusive evidence for...

agreed. foolish is the christian who attempts apologetics without any knowledge of an athiest's viewpoint and vice versa

good to hear. Christians are definately called to have a defence for their faith, "We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ" - 2 Corinthians 15:5 but its more important to...

i'll do both eventually. though i wouldn't have kids till late 20s at least. before that i want to have some solid and enjoyable years of DINK (double income no kids) living, which i will remember with longing and sadness as i regret my ability to pro-create for the rest of my miserable life.

pretty sure i've repped upwards of 50 people since you, and i still can't rep you. dubs tee eff?

haha. nah i know an athiest who has read the entire Bible and Qu'ran, and now he's doing a masters in theology. he's never really given me a conclusive answer as to why he does it all.. but he must find it interesting, i mean he's sacrificed nearly a decade of his life to it.

hahahaha yeah. i critiqued someone earlier today for implying no intelligent people are Christians, in regard to JWs however, one could be forgiven for suggesting that it doesn't take much looking into to see that most of the main doctrines of JW (and indeed the way they were created) are just...

doubt it. i'm sure it could have been a contributer to someone who was already starting to fall away, perhaps even the catalyst for someone to start really questioning their beliefs, who then could have fallen away due to a larger number of factors. but i'd be quite surprised if the thread...

hahaha. win i tried to rep you and i got 'must spread rep'. i don't recall ever repping you before =/ but yeah. that thread.. man. i laughed i cried it changed my life

As a Christian, it disappoints me that Christians who are attempting priori proofs for God on there are essentially failing to recognise some of the fundamental qualities of the God that they seek to explain

that was a bit of a blanket statement. you would be quite naive to suggest that no intelligent person could be satisfied with the belief there is a God. likewise i would be naive to suggest the same about athiesm.

hmm thiests take the lead. a more interesting poll would be "have you actually changed your opinion on the existence of God due to the loss of an argument with someone of the opposite opinion" potentially zero on both sides.

people get too worked up on the 'simpsons' style hell with typical satan wearing a red cape, trident over shoulder, lots of fire, lots of cruel punishments etc etc. hell as described in the bible is, fundamentally, the corollary of being removed from God's presence. (athiest flame opportunity...

not always. often it is though, many firms require a 'current academic transcript' though, which can either just be your latest report, or the report and the reference. each firm will specify exactly what they want though. i would encourage you to try and get your school reference if you can...

thats based on the assumption each applicant is of equal merit. you are namu, therefore chances for you personally are about 95%
