    Why should I? It is what it is according to you. "The bible explains it all." It shouldn't matter which church I go to. If it is what it is, it should be cut and dry. There should be no room for differences in the things that are taught (not the way that they are taught).

    The main point is that I am a good person. I don't believe in killing, adultury, stealing, lying or any of that crap. That's not to say that I don't "sin" just like everyone else. I'm a little confused about God, but I think he will understand.

    i never said you had to go... u asked.... and your right it's all in the bible... so believe what the bible says and ur set.
    the differences come in because just like on this site everyone has there own opinion and views... that's why there are so many different denominations. i don't know which is right and which is wrong... i've chosen a church to stick with, but i consider myself to be non denominational.

    I hate this! It makes me so confused. I mean, I want to believe that we got here some how...it's just crazy. It seems like the facts would be the facts and that's it. No room for margin or error or interpretation. Was the person that rewrote the Bible blessed by God or did he just take it upon himself to do it?

    I can believe that it was insipred by God! That's really what I have been trying to say. I believe that some of the things did happen. Just not to the degree that people say. It's like a (dare I say) tall tale that has a moral at the end of the story...meant to teach lessons.

    Very good and that's the whole point.

    People want to find DNA and fossils and scrolls to "believe" that something is true. When all along the whole purpose is to convey a message. HOW you get that message is not as important as you GETTING IT to begin with.

    If I tell YOU that a car runs 10.0 in the 1/4....YOU know that means that the car has a powerful engine and a big turbo or lots of nitrous with some sticky tires and maybe even a good driver. I tell that same thing to MY wife and she is likely to say, "cool, that sounds fast...". The basic MESSAGE is the same, that's a fast car, how yall both came up to the same conclusion was totally different. So the message was what was truly important and was delivered to both. You can microdisect it to death and it's still a fast car, but there are always gonna be people who will still want more "proof" before admitting what everyone else already knows. The only problem is that you keep looking for that "proof" but tommorow is not promised to anyone remember that.

    i understand where u are coming from tracy bc ive been there. the reason there are differences in churches is bc the bible tells u in the last days there will be false profits. u have to go to a church where they can prove to what they are saying is true. explain to you how what they are saying wrks and show u were they found their info in the bible. lik ethe church i go to, every time i stop going for a while and come back, everythign he talks about is like we are one on one. bc he talks about everything ive been going through since i havent been going to church. i swear its like he had somebody spying on me. i asked my mom, sister, and everybody ive ever invited to church with me and they get the same feeling.
