Think about the fish in the sea. There is one fish that hides all its children in its mouth when danger approaches. Who has put smartness into its head? Think about the water-dwelling creatures that can drown. Where is the smartness?

Childhood believer in God; late teens to 26 atheist; born again at 28. Picked up a Bible one night when I had nothing else to do and started reading. Which Bible?[SNIP!] We don't serve God because we fear punishment. Jesus took care of that part. I and every other genuine believer I know obey and serve from love and gratitude for what He's done for us. But he made us and gave us free choice, right? Yet if we do not do as he wishes, he will send us here. Don't jump on me just yet, but I need to say this. Catholocism is not Christianity. It's a pagan religion masquerading as Christianity. I only mention it so we don't have to do the crusades and inquisition thingy. They're two very different belief systems once you get past the names. [SNIP!] Doesn't Catholicism fit the definition of Christianity? Aren't you and Catholics using the same Gospels? By the way, I was brought up as a Roman Catholic, but tend towards atheism.

I was just posting on BAUT, when it went down? I even tried the BA home site, and even that was down I have the same problem.
