    Why have no Creationists refuted this article on origins?

    http://www.science-frontiers.com/sf046/sf046p14.htm I'm particularly interested in why I've never even seen them mention Dr Sager or the citation to his work on this project. Non-Creationists, it may be worth your time to read as well, there are some novel ideas that get outside the normal way...

    When saying grace before a meal, do Christians ever get this specific?

    Dearest God, Thank you for this bountiful food we are about to receive. Thank you for keeping it here in the USA instead of having it sent to some third world country to feed children that probably wouldn't even be True Christians if they grew up. And please don't let the abundance of food make...

    How do you think it would actually work if you are only for abortion in the case of rape or incest?

    Do you see it as something the woman would just have to make a claim that it was not a result of consensual sex, maybe sign a statement or something? Or would she have to prove she was raped? It isn't uncommon for rape victims to not want to prosecute because of the added trauma of a trial. But...

    Does anyone but me render the "when does human life begin" thing moot with this...

    ...notion (details)? In my way of thinking about it, human life is passed from generation to generation, in an unbroken.series of events. So in effect, human life does not begin when born, at a certain stage of fetal development, not even at conception. It just continues. As far as this applies...

    For those that know and accept that they are well below average intelligence: What do

    you think of religion? I'm not insulting anyone or judging. There are people of different intelligence and some of them have to be below average intelligence, and some of them understand that and accept it. This is directed only at them, and I would like their opinion on religion, what it does...

    Did God tell bees not to eat the pollen and nectar of the Tree of Knowledge of

    Good & Evil? Well Garth, after all I WAS expecting some personal interpretations of the Biblel.

    Does anyone else find it odd that Christians tend to shun Earth based...

    ...religions and Earth Sciences? Hypothetically, if God had created everything there is a lot more nature than there is Bible. For instance, you can tell a lot more about Egyptians from the things they built than you can by reading books inspired by them but written by others.

    Seriously Christians, how do you feel about that talking donkey and talking snake thing?

    Of all the things that were never mentioned in the Bible, do you sometimes wish those two hadn't been canonized as well? Also, do you think there were many other instances where animals talked that didn't make the final draft? ATHF, assemble!

    Do all Evangelicals unconsciously adopt better posture when judging others?

    It seems to be an especially stiff posture when they are personally judging that a person deserves to go to Hell.

    Opinions on the following out-of-context passages? And do you care to put them in...

    ...context? These three passages tell an action of the Biblical God and his reason for taking it. Do Christians try to understand the different given reasons so they can better conform to the will of the god the believe in, or do they usually assume the reasons are alway as in the example from...

    If the O.T. laws don't count for Gentiles, where in the N.T. does it point out

    the specific 10 Commandments? The only place I can find them seems to be in Exodus in the middle of where the Jewish laws are found. Where does Jesus say those 10 in particular out of the hundreds of commandments are exempt for being ignored? Or are those 10 Commandments some people want posted...

    Do some atheist just want a get out of jail free card?

    I think we are all individuals.

    Jews who keep Kosher and follow the laws: Is the diverse weights thing still in effect?

    I know in the Christian Bible it says not to carry diverse weights in the same bag. Is this something you try to follow, and to what extent? Does it include other measures such as measuring spoons, and is having a set of them on a ring something you have to avoid? I'm just curious... I have no...

    Has anything happened to you recently that you think was a test from God?

    He puts a great deal of effort into making it look like he doesn't exist, so I figure that is what he wants us to believe. I did exactly that, so I guess I passed.
