Hello, and welcome to our friendly forums. You'll note that unlike atheists, you'll find no one here bitter or insulting. We extend a warm welcome to you and your kind as long as you maintain a respectful dialog. To answer your question, no. No we are not stupid. We have among our number, some great theological and intellectual giants. I would encourage you to spend some time reading our science forum. If you do so with an open mind, you just might learn a thing or two.

It's not obvious at all. You've simply been told that your mythology is true. You just so happen to be surrounded by a community that shares this belief. But don't take my word for it - learn for yourself. The truth is out there.

I don't know. I don't watch "veggie tales" and don't allow my children to do so either. They are terribly liberal and promote vegetarianism. This cartoon is the Mother Jones of Biblical cartoons. Bibleman, on the other hand, is a fantastic source of knowledge in an entertaining media.

Nothing.

Yes.

You just answered this a moment ago. You'll get what's coming to you when the time is right.

We did not ask you these questions and we are not the least bit interested in your opinion. This is not a debate forum, dear, but a church forum where God's Favorite People come to worship and share the Good News.
