    i agree doing what is righ is difficult but knowing what is right is not a difficult thing, Gods standards are clearly set out in the Bible, but having the courage to do what is right is often the only problem. people tend to twist the truth to suite their life style, its the same with the religious leaders, they mislead people making them think that Gods standards drop with the rest of society, but thats not true and never will be.

    • The various Popes and numerous preachers are all scholars of the Bible. (So, we are already ignoring the validity of all other religions.) And the preachers are as divided on how to interpret the Bible as are the Dems and Repubs arguing the Constitution.

    • Even the basic scriptures, like NO to homosexuality are being ignored, you cant change that scripture no matter how hard you try, but now the majority of the churches accept it as the norm ,its not normal in Gods eyes and never will be.

    • In my eyes it won't as well. People choose their God based on their desires, not what's right or wrong. If God took everyone as they were without question even though they are doing things He doesnt like then we would not do the right thing. I'm going to be honest. It's easier to do evil, and it makes you feel good. Doing good you only feel proud after the journey, and it doesnt entail getting everything you want.
