I have to ask, how many of you people actually know liberals in your life? It’s fascinating the reaction to people who are different than you.
The only thing that is scientific is that liberals and conservatives brains act different. Studies have shown that republicans tend to have more “fear”...
I don’t know the answers to them. That’s why I’ve asked. I really don’t get it and I was looking forward to coming back to something of note.
Clearly it was a silly idea.
Hey everyone. Not sure if this is the right board but it seemed close enough. I have a series of 6 questions today for those of you in the pro life movement. I have numbered them, so which ever question you have time to respond to or want to answer I appreciate.
To be clear, this thread is...
I apologize for taking your response aggressively. In my defense, I think most of the responses given on this site are meant with the intention to be combative :21:
I absolutely respect your stance on that. A lot of the answers here are suggestion these sacrifices are “symbolic of the culture”...
I apologize. I took what you said as being directed at me since the reply included my direct quote. It also seemed you were saying I wouldn’t get any answers because of how you perceived i viewed religious people. If you wish to help me understand what you meant I’m happy to listen m.
This isn’t what I’m talking about. I’m not getting upset over the fate of the animals. I’m looking at this from a comparative religion point and the inclusion of this practice in that religion.
The fact that you can’t understand the difference between religious sacrifice and splashing blood on the alter in order for a deity to forgive you and a medical procedure is beyond me. I can’t compare the two because they don’t even meet on the same playing field
When has anyone ever said “I...
Awesome! I’m really glad to meet someone like you. The pro life notion feels genuine if you truly mean what you say.
How do you personally feel about the majority of your pro life companions? Do you see the same things I complained about? Or do you disagree with how people act on your side? If...
I don’t even understand how you were able to jump to this from this conversation. It’s amazing how people can twist a subject to be about what they want. I believe the term in the rules here is “thread hijacking”
Please stay on subject or leave. There are plenty of abortion threads you can go...
I never said that. That is why I specified that I wanted to hear multiple answers from multiple people. Everyone has different background and training and experiences. Thus why I asked a whole forum full of people.
But the actual question is regarding the live sacrifice of Jesus. It is my understanding that without his death, we would not be forgiven and be required to give those sacrifices. Why in the end was this type of sacrifice needed for a great god?
I agree with you that it sounds very much like...
It’s hard to respect the pro-life movement. I want to. I really wish most people who claimed to be for life really were. Can you imagine if “pro-life” people were as passionate about people that are actually alive as they are the unborn? I NEVER hear anything from pro-life people about ways to...
Haha! I sort of was. I was really confused and felt extremely out of place. It got me really interested in the religion though. I had never realized these practices were so normal. I had started studying religions after that and I was especially intrigued by the Christian religions since it is...
Thank you for your response. To clarify, the difference to you is that god committed the sacrifice and no humans? I still don’t understand a blood sacrifice was needed. Before Jesus they had to sacrifice animals. Why? Why could he not lift the curse that he himself placed on man? I once attended...
