    All God's children singing glory, glory..

    ...hallelujah he reigns!

    I actually like that song I heard it last nigh, when, just for the heck of it I decided to listen to the Praise radio station (if we got it). I actually heard quite a lot of Christian songs last night. One annoyed me though, he was singing as if he were Christ, sounded sort of conceited. Why are they all country-ish?

    All God's children singing glory, glory,hallelujah he reigns is a nice song though. I think I've heard it before. It was sort of odd when I was listening to it, I didn't have my glasses on, and it was dark, but I noticed that the houseplant in my bedroom looked somewhat like a cross...a very blurry, dark cross.

    I do have one question though, about Christianity. Since man was created in God's form, and God is therefore a man...who's form was woman created in? Where did the image of "female" come from? That's sort of why I believe in a Goddess, since there are both male and female. If someone could answer that though, I'd appreciate it, because that part in the creation seems confusing to me when I think about it.

    Ahh, and do you see the first problem in your query? It's now in BOLD.

    God didn't ask you to think about His Word. He directed you to accept His Word.

    You must let go (of this "critical thought" nonsense) and let God (do the thinking for you). That's HIS job!

    Now, God had made all the animals male and female. Then He made Adam in His own image.

    After what would He pattern Eve? A female similar in form to Adam. Most likely, an ape or bonobo or something of that nature.

    Obviously not a gorilla, as women are (on average) smaller than men.

      Maybe He used His imagination? I don't see you asking whose form the snake was made in. And what evidence do you have for the existence of this "goddess", outside your imagination?
      O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it--for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is the ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen.



      God being truth, justice, goodness, beauty, power, and life, man is falsehood, iniquity, evil, ugliness, impotence, and death. God being master, man is the slave. Incapable of finding justice, truth, and eternal life by his own effort, he can attain them only through a divine revelation... he who desires to worship God must harbor no childish illusions about the matter, but bravely renounce his liberty and humanity.

        hmm..you're right. I don't really. It's just "oh, I think this should be like this". I'm an artist and a writer (blah, ok, I can write and draw. I don't do it professionally.) , a lot of things come just from my imagination. That answer actually make a lot of sense. thanks.

              . . . says the tree-humping neo-pagan who believes in praying to rocks and birds and some "goddess" who has never even written a book (because her followers are largely illiterate?)!
