If you say so, Thomas. :) I'm just playing the devil's advocate. (Meaning, I hate evolution to bits! *cracks up*)

Doesn't give him salvation though... But he was close...

Unfortunately, Einstein became an atheist sooner or later.

Thomas, evolution can be proved in many ways. Do a search and you'll find many goodies. And that comes from a Christian. Whether the proof is good enough I don't know.

Dear Muslims I intend to write a letter to the Islamic Council of Norway entreating them to transmit my message of sympathy and humility to other Muslims in Norway. With this post I'm starting a project of my own with the purpose to communicate my worries and compassion and hopeful advise...

All of it. They are arrogant and proud because they don't want to humble themselves and apologise. And ignorant for publishing the caricature. Yes. Yes.

About Dawkins... I don't doubt you one minute. If he had his way he would implement new laws to annihilate all religious/spiritual people. Bizarrely, I feel sorry for him. Possessed with his 'selfish gene theory'. Perhaps he's only trying to scientifically justify his own narcissism. An...

Water is a symbol of the emotions (including passions, desires, cravings, etc.). Is that relevant? Did Jesus say that water is a symbol of emotions? You see folks, a Catholic I've spoken to said that baptizement is a requirement to achieve salvation. Not necessarily just as a Catholic...

Calm down you. So long as no one spreads false things people can say what they want. I wasn't asking for your 'not your right'-wisdom. It is my "right" to say what I want, just like people can theorise about MM.

I have a question that I'm almost totally ignorant on... Is baptizement in water required for salvation? The Catholic Church believes that... I myself am not sure. Is it really that important to immerse your flesh in H2O? Why do I have faith and the Holy Spirit in me without having been...

One thing is clear to me and that is that... Jesus did not live on Earth to get married and live a normal human life. He was a man, yes, and with human body functions... He ate, slept, walked, talked... But he was and is Christ, the Messiah. God sent Him to Earth for a very special reason and...

Who was Mary Magdalena? Has the Catholic church hidden certain things about her life and relationship to Christ?

I saw the movie last night! I was moved to tears when Aslan sacrificed himself, allready knowing that C.S Lewis has said that the story has links to the Bible. I watched the earliest series when I was younger and was struck by the likeness to the Bible. Adam, Eve, Aslan sacrificing himself...

No, it hasn't been discussed. That's aactually quite an interesting topic. I read many times in Paul's letters that he refers to the Mosaic law and from that the most logical interpretation is that he always refers to that law when he speaks of the law and works of the law. James however I...

I'm sorry, Q, but there's a lot that isn't too good about the Mormon teaching. I hope you're not getting into any of that. They are unbiblical to the bone. One Mormon even admitted that they don't believe in the same Christ as other Christians. Don't go there !!

I talked to a Catholic. He told me that he considers 4 or 5 books from the Apocrypha to belong in the Bible. My point is... do these texts make a difference to the understanding of the Bible and God's message to humankind?

But do you claim that only the saints of your denomination are right? I have found inspiration in Catholic saints as well as Orthodox saints. The problem arises when one church claims to be superior to another, to be authentic. I don't think pride and that kind of introvert solidarity serves...

I read an article yesterday about ID. A non was interviewed and she thought that the debate about ID, science is rather a debate about a materialistic/mechanical world view and a spiritual world view. A good thought. I believe there is also a fear of being controlled by natural laws and bound...

I caaan agree. But history can anyhow affirm events in the Bible. And some understanding of history and culture is necessary to understand St Paul's seemingly condescending attitude towards women for instance. What do you say is the biography, the Bible alone?

Scary thought. I'm not sure. I usually check different translations. But copies of copies of copies... Scary! I really need to learn the languages of the Bible!! Have you done that? Has your Jewish friend helped you to understand the Bible better? *waiting in apprehension*
