"Jesus is My Boyfriend" Christianity
by cofty inthere is a trend in modern evangelical, charismatic and "non-religious spirituality" that gets dangerously close to erotic love of jesus.. it's something that i first observed during my christian years especially in the lyrics of christian songs and sometimes during open-prayer times.
if you haven't experienced open prayer you are the lucky ones.
everybody adopts the shampoo position - elbows on knees, head in hands - and whoever is "moved by the spirit" speaks up for a while, followed by an awkward silence, followed by two people speaking up at the same time, followed by silence, and so on.. anyway back to the topic, here are a few random examples .... "lord i give you my heart.

I never said it was a 100% factual history
What percent of it was factual? Forrest Gump had real historical events, and people, in it. That doesn't make it a work of Non-fiction.
Furthermore nobody would dare to do it to any other holy book
Perhaps not, but that would be due to fear, not due to giving them any credence for their historical accuracy.

I wonder was the person who made the decision to label the Bible as fiction just uneducated or was it a deliberate act?
It would have to be an uneducated person to categorize a story about a talking snake, or a global flood as fiction. And what about Jonah and the whale? These events don't defy science or logic in the least.

I like you more if you are literratte
by usualusername inas a daily visitor of this site i am shocked by how judgemental i am.. .
if someone makes a valid point but does not spell well it colours my judgement.. .
if someone who is a clown has excellent grammar i give them leeway.. as an aside i am a gramaphobe.. .

Do You Often See JWs Out In The Ministry?
by minimus ini used to always see them preaching.

I never see them in my neighborhood. I'm starting to see them more frequently at the laundromat I go to. They've interrupted me a couple of times when I've been reading my book. Who does that?

Atheists, what is the best argument FOR God?
by bohm inthere are no convincing arguments for god, but some are worse than others.
i thought it would be interesting to see what people consider the best (of the bad) arguments for god?.
in my oppinion it is the fine-tuning argument from cosmology.
-

The best argument is the Watchtower society. Only a wise, all-knowing god could establish such a pure and loving organization as his earthly representative.
