well, one reason I believe it is not reliable is that, as I said, presents as part of its "evidence" a message channeled by a spirit medium. another reason that I gave is that it has articles with titles like "How to Read Birds as Omens and Signs" for are you asking about the worldwide web in...

the site that you linked to presents as part of its "evidence" a message channeled by a spirit medium: "After reading the book, I came across a channeled message titled "Manipulation of Religious Traditions and Beliefs" that parallels the findings of Putnam and Horn."...

many Protestants search for extraterrestrial life, as well. if I follow your reasoning, it's that aliens aren't mentioned in creation, therefore they must be Satan in disguise. bacteria aren't mentioned in the creation story, either. a bacterium is neither a plant from day 3 nor an animal from...

yes, the Vatican shares the facility with several other groups. I think this is very common. it looks like the "Lucifer" telescope was basically a joke perpetrated by the Max Planck institute. Christian chat itself shares facilities at cloudflare.com, which probably serves many sites we would...

hi oldethennew! does your reply relate to my post? if so, how? :)

one other thought, my guess is that they probably chose a mountain in Arizona because of atmospheric conditions there, not because it was a holy place for the natives.

ahh, yes, now I understand. the telescope is in Arizona. as I'm sure you already know, Indian can mean from India or native American. (as I understand it, when Columbus landed in the Americas, he thought he was in the East Indies!)

well, looking at the entire chapter 7 in John, I think the judgment that Jesus is talking about is deciding whether a person's ministry is good or evil.

say garee, you're a great Christian brother with interesting ideas and I sense that you really want to contribute. I mean this gently: much of what you write doesn't make sense to most people. are you aware of this?

some interesting quotes in the link from your post "A: The telescope is actually called Large Binocular Telescope (LBT), and is a cooperation by a lot of people including the universities of Virginia, Notre Dame, Minnesota, Ohio State, and Arizona, the Italian National Astrophysics Institute...

I believe what you are experiencing is "confirmation bias". "For example, a person may cherry-pick empirical data that supports one's belief, ignoring the remainder of the data that is not supportive." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confirmation_bias we may wish to "Stop judging by the way...

as I'm sure you know, "lucifer" just means "light bringer". in a liturgical procession (Catholic or Protestant), the person carrying the candle is called the lucifer, just like the person carrying the cross is called the crucifer. I myself have been a lucifer. the name "Lucifer" occurs only...

yes, I think that's because in Europe ideas about religious freedom became popular in those countries that had been part of the Protestant Reformation. I'm not sure what you mean. if you are saying that whipping slaves is unchristian, I agree! so Protestants who said it was good were lying.

myself and the methodists I know decide for themselves what to believe. the person called the pastor is more of a teacher, a presenter of ideas. I think final decisions in the United Methodist Church are made by the general assembly, a group of about 1000 delegates. if people don't like the...

who is the Protestant leader? from what I've seen, most Protestants will not follow someone who goes against what they personally believe the Bible says. yes, Satan pretends to be something else, an angel of light 2 Corinthians 11:14 And no wonder, for even Satan masquerades as an angel of...

great scriptures! I don't think everyone in the world will be united, either. maybe this translation makes it clearer 14 The love of Christ controls us. Because we know that One died for all. So all have died. 15 Christ died for all so that those who live would not continue to live for...

I think what you're getting at is that Catholics have a leader, but for Protestants, everyone does what is right in his or her own eyes. that's right! I was drawing a parallel. right again, the Bible talks about fruit on Earth just like it talks about creatures in heaven Revelation 5:13 I...

Amen to that scripture! it reminded me of Our firm decision is to work from this focused center: One man died for everyone. That puts everyone in the same boat. He included everyone in his death so that everyone could also be included in his life, a resurrection life, a far better life than...

sorry, I can't understand that sentence. I believe your reasoning is faulty. for example, the Bible doesn't say that Auroras exist. it does not follow not everyone who says they do exist is lying.

yes, I believe that is what Paul is saying. the Athenians were worshipping the true God and idols at the same time. this is because they didn't know what was going on, they were ignorant. because they were worshipping the true God, they were also worshipping Jesus. again, since they were...
