For those of you who have never heard of MST3K, here is a link to one of their funniest shorts: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Hh4M4vipAo Mst3k is just an old show which makes fun of really crappy old movies like "The Screaming Skull" and "Prince of Space" and stuff like that. T...

Ok, if there are any shrinks or anything; anybody that studies dreams, please help. I just dreampt, for like the third time in a couple months, my death. I have not had any previous dreams about death, and I have not changed my diet. I am also not on any drugs or medication. Any explination?

Hence the existence of "Hell." I would call that an outward manefestation of wrath, but it is not a sin because it is perfectly just.

I do or I wouldn't be on this forum. The reason why I said that God is in the third dimension is because time has no meaning in the third dimension. However, you make a point. Because we exist in a state of time, God simply transcends time, which, I suppose, would put him in a higher dimension. Jota...

No, I don't think you're getting what I meant. Aslan accepts Emet because - through absolutely no fault of his own - Emet did not know Aslan, but still sought him. He was given Tash by his culture and family, but in his heart he was seeking for the truth, for Aslan. Lewis was making the point that ...

The "Lion", Aslan, accepted Emet because he was striving toward good, toward a relationship with the Divine, even though he didn't know about Aslan. It wasn't Emet's fault the god his family and society followed wasn't Aslan. But thats exactly what I'm talking about. He was worshipping SO...

That's sort of what I was trying to say earlier, that God exists in the third dimension (i.e. outside of time) while we exist in the fourth.

Also, in the Big Bang, where did all that energy/matter come from? was it created? or was it eternal?

All boils down to a very basic and simple view: If you had 50 bucks, would you rather decide how to spend it? or let someone else decide? In government run healthcare, The government decides how our tax dollars are spent. One of the basic rules of economics: The Government HAS NO MONEY. Who are they...

The other thing I love is when fundamentalists talk about "eternity" as if they know what it means, and yet cannot comprehend the development of stars over billions of years, or the evolution of human life over 4-1/2 billion years. They look at the 200 years or so since Darwin, and expect...

I didn't say it was. I was pointing out that all communist countries have government healthcare. thats all. sorry if you got the wrong impression.

Crazy Tom: C Toon

kk. I still want my question answered.

Crazy Tom: C Toon

... no. Where does it say it is?

Crazy Tom: C Toon

I know. I don't judge who God saves, He does. God might easily save C S Lewis for his own purposes. I simply do not think that Lewis is currently in a salvific frame of mind. Also, if you have read the Narnia series, you may have realized the allegorical parallels for the characters (C S Lewis himse...

Women. Explain, please.

Since I nominated Sonikku before for best poster, but he was already nominated, I'll nominate Syphon the Sun instead.

Crazy Tom: C Toon

I agree that God doesn't flaunt His perfection. He just knows it is, and acts like it, but he is not overly humble because he doesn't deserve to be. I also agree that God has emotion. The Bible is very clear when God is "wrathful" or "pleased." However, this is not to say he ever...

I think you need to read article 1260 again. While God has given us baptism as a gateway to the path of salvation, God is not limited to saving people via that gateway. Baptism does not ensure salvation, either, although it does plant the seed of grace, which may grow if nurtured. If the seed is no...

Im sorry, but STS has a very CAPITALIST view to your communist. SOCIAL healthcare, managed by government, is one of the basic parts of a communist-run country. I think that all that STS was trying to say was that the US is far ahead of the rest of the world when it comes to inventing things like new...

Believing in Evolution IS renouncng the doctrine of God's Creation, or ven his influence. The Bible clearly describes a Creationist view, not an Evolutionary one. Nowhere in the Bible is anything about "God created a little ameboid, which subsequently evolved into all life today." It says ...

that's pretty tight.

Well, I have found that whenever I am stuck on memorizing a poem or something, and I just can't seem to remember it, I just read it once more before I go to sleep, then in the morning it's memorized. like magic. I think studying makes us sleepy because it's so boring, but taking breaks every hour or...

... thats not me... I wish it was because Luther knows more than I do about religion. I just happen to agree with everything he has said so far. Why would I have 2 accounts anyway?

oh, and Peterlover14 for best noobie.

Crazy Tom: C Toon

Just as a note, there is a big difference between "tradition" and "Tradition". "Tradition" includes such things as "The Bible is the written Word of God" and "Jesus is God"; "tradition" deals more with passing fads that may or may not be t...

I think that if anybody realized that the only way to avoid eternal torture was to be ceremonially dipped in water, they would go ahead and do it. So except for the people with extreme hydrophobia, God saves everybody? is that your point?

Crazy Tom: C Toon

He's trying to say that God isnt masking the truth. He just says how it is. he makes nothing up. He just says, "hey, btw, all this stuff is actually brand new, I just made it look like it's been going for a while." no lie. no deceiving. just fact. also, boothby, there are too many atheists...

Crazy Tom: C Toon

Yes, religion has huge sway over politics, but it can hardly be called fundamentalism . But I agree whole-heartedly with Satya: any being that creates puppets for the sole purpose of later glorifying him for all eternity is a supreme egoist. Makes Ayn Rand look like Mother Theresa. He's God, he has ...

How do Catholics define the limit of God's mercy? If you believe that you trust Him to be merciful with the unbaptized, why is he not merciful to the pagan, or the atheist?

Crazy Tom: C Toon

I know all you aetheists are going to hate me for this....

Our only purpose for existence is to glorify God. Evil even glorifies God because it provides contrast; how could you possibly know "light" without "dark"?

Crazy Tom: C Toon

Not all that difficult when "tradition" strays from Scriptures, as it did in the Catholic faith. Huss was one of the first to see this and was executed for going against the church. When Luther began to see the differences between Catholic tradition and scriptures, people began to accuse h...

After we are at this point, how can we be sure that the universe wasn't altogether created last thursday? or 5 mins ago? Everything could be photons already created in their path, nuclei already decaying, particles set up with a starting motion, implanted memories for ourselves. Because the Bible, ...

Wil: To go with that, there is what I said earlier about how the word for "day" and for "era" are the same in Biblical Hebrew, which would support an understanding along those lines. Of course you left out something very important...the fact that whenever the word 'yom' is used ...

Crazy Tom: C Toon

Well... thanks. I don't suppose anybody has something to offer against that?

Crazy Tom: C Toon

How does that make ANYTHING make-believe. And when does God ever say anything to the contrary of what Luther has said? How is God a liar?

Crazy Tom: C Toon

The only prophesies that are really unfulfilled are either those concerned with revalation or those made by false prophets. Also, I do not understand how you (jota) think that Paul was somehow violating Sola Scriptura by writing scriptures. Sola Scriptura : Latin. Ablative; On scriptures alone . Mar...
