    For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)

            Well, GOD is definitely good. Regardless on how you worship Him/Her. Whether be Jewish, Christian. Islamic or any other religion.

            What I DON'T like is how we screwed the message up with the church and all it's wheeling and dealings.

            I'm glad I'm Buddhist (with some Shinto and Christianity thrown in there for good measure).

              What about us atheists who could care less?

              Now I'm trolling people.

                The greatest understatement of all time
                Indeed.

                And he said, "These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Therefore,

                "they are before the throne of God
                and serve him day and night in his temple;
                and he who sits on the throne will spread his tent over them.

                Never again will they hunger;
                never again will they thirst.
                The sun will not beat upon them,
                nor any scorching heat.

                For the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their shepherd;
                he will lead them to springs of living water.
                And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes."

                        *wave* to the people that do have religion in this thread.

                        Ever heard of constellations?

                        The absolute best rebuttal on the internet is actually ignorance. If you just don't respond to what someone has said, you can pretend they never even said it at all.

                          God is so great he simply cannot be described in words. The words "Our God is an awesome God" comes from a hymnal btw. And it's about the best one-phrase statement we could possibly use to describe Him in the human sense.

                          <--- Quote by Former U.S. President Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt
                          "And there will be strange events in the skies--signs in the sun, moon, and stars. And down here on earth the nations will be in turmoil, perplexed by the roaring seas and strange tides. The courage of many people will falter because of the fearful fate they see coming upon the earth, because the stability of the very heavens will be broken up. Then everyone will see the Son of Man arrive on the clouds with power and great glory. So when all these things begin to happen, stand straight and look up, for your salvation is near!" --Luke 21:25-28
                          For the Lord himself will come down from heaven with a commanding shout, with the call of the archangel, and with the trumpet call of God. First, all the Christians who have died will rise from their graves. Then, together with them, we who are still alive and remain on the earth will be caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air and remain with him forever. --1 Thessalonians 4:16-17

                              There are also numerous uses of the phrase "Four Corners of the Earth" and "Ends of the Earth"

                              Note also:

                              Ps. 103:12

                              And the fact that the Sun sets, then "hurries back to its rising point"
                              Indeed.


                              However, I am confused? Where does the Bible say the world is flat? I've read it through and don't remember that part.

                              While the quotes you show are good they hardly answer my question.

                                "Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world,"
                                So is this passage meant to be a treatise on geography?

                                Could not the devil escort Christ anywhere around the world?

                                There are also numerous uses of the phrase "Four Corners of the Earth" and "Ends of the Earth"
                                And are these any more than figures of speech?

                                Note also:

                                For as high as the heavens are above the Earth, so great is his love for those who fear him.

                                Is this not a splendid simile?
