so you would have no problem if someone put "god doesnt' exist" or "666" on these things?

If he was claiming to be the antichrist I might a little scared because my faith isn't as strong as it should be, but I wouldn't be crying that he can't do it.

I prefer the words Dr. Dre, Eazy E, Ice Cube, MC Ren, and DJ Yella used.

Quite a lot of people are until they are faced with a problem that cant be solved through conventional means. I wonder if Eazy E was comforted by his lyrics as he passed away from AIDS or he was looking for something deeper.

I have participated in street witnessing in Jacksonville, Fl. It was a intradenominational project called "Mission Main Street". It was an area well known for drugs, homeless, prostitution, etc. I know you may not understand or believe this, but God can and does order our steps at times. That day he directed me to quite a few people that were just hanging on and needed to hear a message of hope. I suspect that those guys going door to door have had similar experiences. For every 1oo doors slammed in their faces, there may be one that needs them to be there. Sometimes we become insulated to lost and the sufferring that are all around us. While Hat or you dont want to listen there are people that are desperate to know someone cares.

Amen brother. I participated in "Faith" amongst other things. People can argue till they are blue in the face on this matter, but they can never change what God did for me personally. I am not perfect, a holy roller, etc nor do I claim to be. There is a world full of lost people looking for something. Some people turn to drugs, gambling, sex, etc and I think this is a way to turn them to something that is positive.

If thats their belief then no. Personal beliefs are your decision, that you made after studying and consideration. To be ashamed of them would be foolish?
However, if they are on there to attack someone else's beliefs, then it could be a problem

it doesn't really matter though, because we are one idiot away from them NCAA banning people writing stuff on these things anyway. mark my word.

I guess this is why the Bible says there is 2 roads...one that is well travelled and one that is straight and narrow.

My guess is that he was looking for someone to turn up his morphine drip.

I suspect that like most people that when faced with their own mortality that he started looking for answers. I do know that at the end he stated, "Im the last one you'd expect to preach a sermon, but I need to testify..." he then went on to talk about HIV as a warning to others.

I think Tebow should wear "Matthew 6:5-6" on his eyeblack.

not sure what you are trying to get at, but there are multiple verses of an outward show of faith and preaching the gospel. I've seen him point to the sky, but I've never seen him just start praying out loud during a game or during a presser

what's your question? Why do we have free will? So that we can choose to love God and follow Him.

what about those who chose not to?

if the point is to love God and follow him, why would he give us the choice?

First of all we have no "rights" before God. He is our Creator and Sovereign over all creation. What He has given us is the gift of a free will to make choices. These choices are of our on choosing. This goes all the way back to Adam and Eve. They were given 2 choices one evil and one good.

"And if it is disagreeable in your sight to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves today whom you will serve:..." Joshua 24:15

Oh, come on. You live in a country in which every politician has to publicly and loudly proclaim allegiance to the Christian faith in order to have a career. Christianity is the established, dominant religion here. The only way you can claim Christians are "persecuted" here is if you petulantly stretch the word to include such crimes as "not being allowed to have Christianity taught in public schools" and "not being allowed to hang the Ten Commandments inside public buildings." The Christians who were being strung up on the side of the road and fed to the lions when that letter was written would want to puke.
