I don't get it. What are they saying that's wrong or evil? They're quoting bible verses for pete's sake, so what Christian would oppose what's factually referenced? The only question that a true Christian would have is what is the literal interpretation of what's written, or what could have been lost in translation.
To me, beastiality and causing/spreading aids is evil.
If gays followed the rules of this "mean and evil book" there would be no aids.

I think the tiny thought or hope that God might exist would come naturally when facing death.

and remember, this is just my opinion, doesn't necessary mean it's the truth or that of anyone else.

Face it, you deny religion because it gives you a sense of control. Because it's cool. Or because you didn't want to attend Sunday school as a child. You know you can't logically deny the possible existence of God. It’s as ignorant as suggesting the world is flat in the 21st century.

I was raised in the church, an alterboy on sundays, catecism (sp?) on wednesday nights, praying at night with my grandma before I go to bed, but all the teachings I've received in school, all the science and nature, etc. have provided more hard evidence to prove against a supreme being than for it. I'm most definately a man of cold hard evidence...I need something tangible...and the fact that I can't see or hear or know for sure anything about a "BigBossMan" in the sky...I don't believe it. (=
