Question about born-agains?

Question

I don't know any born-again Christians but have read/heard that they believe some unusual things. Which of these beliefs that I've heard attributed to them are actually part of their doctrine? Which are just rumors/talk about them and not actual beliefs?

1) The earth is only 5,000 years old

2) Humans and dinosaurs lived on the earth together

3) Evolution is wrong and things do not change over time

4) It has been proven Jesus was white

Also, are born agains *required* to go to church,or is it just recommended?

Answer 1

1.  6,000

2.  Yep, created on day 6.

3.  Noooo, but there is not evolution that resulted in mankind.  

4.  He was likely as modern day Egyptians if you want to know color.

Forsake not the assembling of yourselves as the heathens have come to do.

Answer 3

1 and 2 apply to apply to the vast majority.

3 - they believe that things change in small ways over time, but not into different species.

4 - only ignorant rednecks believe that one.

They have a lot of social pressure to go to church, but it's not required.

Answer 4

If you feel the need to ask such questions, then yes, I do believe you've never met a born again Christian.

Answer 5

1 and 2 are true. 3 and 4 are false.bible says to not forsake the assembly.

Answer 6

Well, this is what I believe, and I am born again:

1) The earth is way over 5,000 years old.

2) Humans did not live with dinosaurs.

3) Humans did NOT come from monkeys, but some things do change/evolve such as the animals.

4) Jesus was a Jew, not white.
