Waht's a supporting document for the ten commandments?


When Jesus was asked, "Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?" he replied, "'You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind' - this is the great and foremost commandment, and there is a second like it, 'You shall love your neighbour as yourself'. The whole Law and Prophets hang on these two commands." (Mtt 22:37-40, Mrk 12:28-34).

But why are you so adamant that he hasn't been forgiven by God?


Because he doesn't believe in god. God, according to Christians, doesn't forgive you unless you acknowledge that he exists, that he can forgive you, and that you have done wrong.

No, because I don't know where the video feed from this camera is, or who or where any of these people are.

Do you have any article or anything? I've heard Christian faith healers claim they've caused people to regrow limbs. I've heard claims by Indian (from India) mystics claiming they have magically restored virginities to women.

I've heard plenty of claims. I've never seen a single one of them in any legitimate peer-reviewed journal, and you'd think scientific proof of a miracle would be headline news.


It was all over the news and they showed the video too. People were amazed and all. It was like three or four years ago so I don't have any websites that you can visit that would probably still have the story and its details. But, there was no messing with the tape or anything, and her healing was miraculous. The whole hospital staff would have heard about it and I'm sure the nurse or doctor that was taking care of her could confirm that she was going to die. But she lived-and the angel...

If it was on the news I think that is enough proof. If you look it up you'll find something backing me up.


That's your job. And the previous sentence is completely and utterly false. After all that's happened in the past few months alone, do you really think that the news is infallible? With all the 'balloon-boy' bullshit?

That's rather plain, but I don't see how that's actual evidence of the ten commandments.

The Kropotkinite Union wrote:According to Luke, Joseph and Mary lived in Nazareth before the birth of Jesus, and traveled to Bethlehem because of a census:

Luke 2:1-7
And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed. And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city. And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:) To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered. And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.

But according to Matthew, they lived in a house in Bethlehem, and moved to Nazareth after returning from Egypt:

Matthew 2:1-2, 11, 22-23
Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.
...
And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him.
...
But when he heard that Archelaus did reign in Judaea in the room of his father Herod, he was afraid to go thither: notwithstanding, being warned of God in a dream, he turned aside into the parts of Galilee: And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth.


You mean they moved back to Nazareth from Egypt.

Srsly what?


The wise men came years after Jesus was born. They traveled a long way, it's not like they made the trip in one night. They didn't have planes, cars or trains back then you know. By the time the Wise Men came, Mary and Joseph had probably bought a house. Mary and Joseph couldn't stay in the stable forever. The night after he was born, they probably had to leave.

That's still the same book.

If you can show a document outside the bible supporting the commandments and their method of delivery then it will be very interesting.

Believe it or not, please look at the picture below:


A mother believes a visit from an angel saved her sick daughter’s life — and she has the photos to prove it.


Chelsea Banton, 14, was fighting for her life after a bout of pneumonia, a collapsed lung and subsequent infections saw her breathing with the aid of a ventilator at Charlotte Presbyterian Hospital.

As her family gathered to say their final goodbyes and mother Colleen faced the decision on removing her life support, hospital staff noticed a mysterious bright light outside her room.

“On the monitor, there was this bright light,” the Daily Mail reported Mrs Banton as saying.

“And I looked at it and I said, ‘Oh my goodness! It looks like an angel!”

When nurses then took off her oxygen mask, Chelsea’s vitals returned to normal.

A fortnight later, she returned home in time for her 15th birthday.

Chelsea’s mother captured the baffling light on the CCTV monitor with a digital camera.

“If [people] doubt it, that’s fine … but I know what I saw, and the picture’s untouched,” Mrs Banton said.

“I didn’t make it up. ‘I look at things differently than I used to, because I know God is in control.”

Indeed, I'm afraid I agree with Fartsniffage. To reuse an earlier example, I could not say, well Rowling establishes in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone that magic is real and Harry Potter is a capable practioner of said magic, and then, in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, magic is still real, and Harry Potter is still a capable practioner of said magic. Ergo, magic is real!

“And I looked at it and I said, ‘Oh my goodness! It looks like an angel!”

When nurses then took off her oxygen mask, Chelsea’s vitals returned to normal.

A fortnight later, she returned home in time for her 15th birthday.

Chelsea’s mother captured the baffling light on the CCTV monitor with a digital camera.

“If [people] doubt it, that’s fine … but I know what I saw, and the picture’s untouched,” Mrs Banton said.

“I didn’t make it up. ‘I look at things differently than I used to, because I know God is in control.”

This is truly a miracle!!!



Look it up. I found this just by looking it up on Google. I'm sure you can find more.


That is the reflection of the fluorescent lights used in hospitals.


If that is the case than how come we don't have another picture like that? Or how come the girl recovered? The doctor's admitted she was going to die. You cannot really prove that that is not an angel. I think the flourescent thing is just a big 'if'

Another picture of what? The video? Perhaps because nobody took any.

Doctors are wrong rather more often than I would like.

And you certainly can't prove that it is. The 'angel' is a rather larger 'if'.

The doctors had no explanation to her recovery. She was going to DIE. Her lungs had COLLAPSED. Yet, she went home, ALIVE.

I'm afraid that, if you actually do some research on Christian beliefs in Angels - as in, actual beliefs, not the version we see nowadays as dictated by the Victorians - you will find that they are said to look nothing like whatever that light was in that picture.

Cherubim for example are said to have four different faces, each from a different animal, as well as the legs and feet of an ox. Seraphim are said have six wings, two of which are used to conceal their faces so as to prevent people from exploding when they see one...

I'm afraid that whatever that light was, however similar it looked to our modern image of an angel, was probably not an angel. I am not denying that the girl could have been cured by the grace of God, I am merely suggesting that you will need more compelling evidence if you are to produce an argument that holds weight.

Medicine is not as precise of a science as you seem to think it is.
A little homework for you!

What part of L(f(t)) = Int(exp(-s*t)*f(t),t,0,inf) don't you understand?

Three different parts of Romans (not quoted word for word), both describing gays and lesbo's. Read tht part. This along with adultry etc. are abominations unto the sight of God.

Yes many Christians are wimps and don't stand up for the Word of God like they should. But their are some who do stand up like they should and do speak against these on the sabbath.

Inexplicable things happen all the time, you just chose to attribute this event to angels.

I think perhaps you should quote them word-for-word.
