Everybody believes a lot of things, not all of them are right. It is completely reasonable that if Satan exists as the Scripture says he does, that he would be able to perform the actions recorded in Genesis. Mock all you'd like, it doesn't bother me.
Yes, silly question, wasn't it?
Everybody believes in talking snakes.
Expecting anything approaching reason from unreasoning credulity is definitely silly, Trout. There tends to be no real discussion or thinking . . . just parroting of dogma that is supposed to endear them to God and keep them out of Hell.
We certainly see more Christians having sex outside of marriage than we homosexuals wanting same sex marraige, yet there are hardly any threads calling out Christians living together in sin. For example, when a Christian has a child born oow, instead of addressing the sin we hear is, "well at least she didn't have an abortion." Why lash out at Non-Christians, when clearly your own house is not in order?
True and that is wrong as well. People look the other way when it comes to sexual sins today since we have so much of it going on. Sad all around really.
This is the podcasts from Catholic Answers. Dan, one of the homosexuals who is in the movie, was on a few days ago talking about his life. He gives good answers to the people who called in about the gay life.
Go to Living with same sex attractions on 8/25. It's very interesting. These are free to listen to.
I'm glad you used the word 'appear', because God does not contradict Himself. The issue is that people have sinful desires and they believe a lie. There is only one truth.

I love God, and have committed my life to following Him, but I am not some brainless worshiper, doing everything out of naivety. God gave me a brain, and logic and common sense, so that I might read His Word and understand what He is saying, because it truly is black and white.
You've missed the point. You are convinced that you know the 'one truth' and that it is 'black and white'. Other people are convinced that they do.
You all think you are right - and others who think differently to you are wrong.
You can't all be right. Although you could all be wrong.
It's all in the interpretation. If Church A disagrees with Church B and you attend Church A.... you're right, the people in Church B are wrong (and need to be corrected) and the people sitting at home on Sunday mornings enjoying football are all going to the bad place.
(Someone will be along shortly to tell me I'm wrong. And in need of correction. )
I don't think football comes on in the morning.
