Good word Pat: panantitheist. I like that. It covers it quite well. As for the rest of your post: Amen.

Or should that be Right on brother!

I am a believer in Christ Jesus. I am 66 years old and became a Christian at the age of 61. I don't believe in argueing about this subject, but do believe in informing people what I belive. I do believe in God and Jesus Christ. I do believe in the Bible. I do believe that Jesus was born of a virgin, and that He died on the cross, went into the depths of Hell and arose on the 3rd day. He then acsended into Heaven. I also believe that he is preparing a place for me and will come back for me. I have that much faith in Him. I don't have enough faith to believe in the Big Bang theory. These are my beliefs. God Bless you all.

Did you get to join the band of holy wailers because you are of an age whereby you thought " hey I aint got much time left, better join the in crowd before it's too late" or did something else arouse your interest?
It seems a little late to start casting aside previous beliefs.

A very sobering and to the point answer Mrs Hoppes, the Salvation Army can be found everywhere there is a need.

Try this one!

An evil dictator is killing his fellow countrymen who opose him.
Is it right to go and kill him and his henchmen.
Is an "Eye for an Eye and a Tooth for a Tooth"

Evil henchmen... hmmm... interesting. Anything to do with current events?

Joshua was a military commander. The first recorded case of psychological warfare was under his command. When he and his men obeyed God, they did well. When they were disobedient to God, they did not do well. Now, what if it was our own gov't?

1Peter 2:13-17 Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme; Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well. For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:
As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God. Honour all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honour the king.

Nothing happens in this world without God allowing it. There is a reason for everything.

Mrs. Hoppes, I fear you have missed my point quite completely. In some places in this world the situation I gave you is all too realistic, and in those places there are no pastors, police, shelters, soup kitchens, neighbours, or other Disneyesque saviours to supply succour to the needy.

Are there plenty of Salvation Army offices in South Africa aiding the millions dying of starvation, AIDS, and other ills that leave them utterly unable to supply sustenance for themselves or the hundreds of thousands of children that die of starvation each year? Hardly. In their case, is stealing for base survival such a serious crime? If they steal from those who have more than they need? I hardly think so. Of course, your mileage may vary. Maybe you think such starvation is justified through some twist of scripture or some other such piece of providential justice. Perhaps not.

I was quoting King James 1611.

And how do you figure the world is safer now than 100 years ago?

No, SPF...I must agree again with MrsHoppes. You are a man of science, I thought...was it safer with muskets & single shots & some repeaters or is it safer now with weapons of mass destruction, like suitcase nuclear bombs or vials of pestulance or some flasks of chemical toxins set loose upon the innocent by some mindnumbed idiot evil pukes! The dire consequences are so much more far reaching & destructive now than most can even fantom or imagine! It is not a safer place now...

You're responding to someone else BooRad, not me. I have said nought about safety now versus safety in past times.
