Does the Bible Contradict Itself

This has definitely got to be one of the hottest issues today.  When debating, please give a real reason for why you believe that way.  And also, please don't insult other members of the debate, period. 

Does God exist?

Arguments for and against God's existence.  I'd like the negative position to take on an equal burden of proof and provide arguments against God's existence, e.g. the problem of suffering, divine hiddenness, etc.

Is faith more important then works?

The Trinity makes no sense.

A three headed god? I just don't believe it. The Bible says that God is one. Will post proof later.

Are Christians more prosecuted than homosexuals?

Does God force us to believe?

No lie, insulters, will be banned: this is your only warning. Most atheists say, "Why, of course he does" because if you don't believe you are punished for it. All thesists say, "He does not" and some of them claim that he doesn't force us because he gave us free will. What do you think, does God force us to believe or not, and why do you think this?

Who do admire more for how they used their power?

Dana and I should pray together

Yeshua said that whenever two or more are gathered in his name, there he is in their midst. Since Both Dana and I are Christians, we should pray together on CreateDebate, and get a whole bunch of stuff cleared up by talking to LORD GOD ALMIGHTY directly. We could use this platform to glorify God. I asked in prayer on my own (and I have been fasting) if the LORD would bless us for sharing his word openly as revealed through prayer, and he responded with an unequivocal YES! I am so exited. The HOLY SPIRIT is stirring and I invite all of those who pray to God to join us in the name of Yeshua.

Does God Care About ManKind?

Does God actually care about mankind, his supposed children, in the same way a father or mother would care for their children? Does he actually care whether his children die or not, or whether his children spend eternity in hell?

Scaring young children with stories of hell is child abuse

When you tell a young child that if they commit one of hundreds of mistakes, labeled sins, during their life, they face eternal damnation in a scary place described as hell, you are in fact abusing your child.Its called mental abuse and unlike physical abuse, there are no visible bruises or breaks.The longtime effects of such abuse may never be visible, except in the tortured mind of the victim.So that is why scaring children with stories of hell, is in fact mental abuse to a child.What that means is, parents who share this delsuional view of reality that there is a hell and the reason for everything in the world is admittingly jealous, are creating unecessary stress, and fear, all because the delusions in religion have control of their mind

Is anyone else sick of all the "Is God real or fake" debates on this site?

About half of the debates on this site has something to do with Christianity or Atheism clashing together in a neverending debate on whether God is real or not. Why can't we just have debates on more interesting and non-annoying stuff, like "Which is better? Vanilla or Chocolate Pudding?"???

Deism vs. Atheism

Deism is knowledge of God based on the application of our reason on the designs/laws found throughout Nature. The designs presuppose a Designer. Deism is therefore a natural religion and is not a "revealed" religion. The natural religion/philosophy of Deism frees those who embrace it from the inconsistencies of superstition and the negativity of fear that are so strongly represented in all of the "revealed" religions such as Judaism, Christianity and Islam. (These religions are called revealed religions because they all make claim to having received a special revelation from God which they pretend, and many of their sincere followers actually believe, their various and conflicting holy books are based on.)

The loss/ignoring of spirituality is destroying society

not religion, spirituality, you know, connecting with nature, people, etc...

Should religion be a private matter?

Is Islam the same as Christianity?

A question for believers......................

Now I already know the answer because I prayed to god and he told me....but When God decides that scripture will be involved in the changing of a heart, must this scripture be biblical scripture, or can the scripture be anywhere such as what is typed in letters between friends?

God plays favorites.

Jacob I have loved, and Esau I have hated. -God

Freedom of belief is a better term than freedom of religion (please read first).

The reason is because it extends the right of people to choose their beliefs to nonreligious people and eveyone.

Rebirth vs Heaven/Hell (which do you believe in more than the other)?

Should God be treated like any other scientific hypothesis?

There are certain claims made about God, which can be tested. Does this mean God should be subject to the same scrutiny as any other scientific hypothesis?
