Why be part of islam or christianity when wickenisim is nicer?

Ie women and men equal. No nasty rules just be nice.

No problems with girl or boyfriends or nudity or not.

Likewise no need to suck up.

No nasty attitudes to sex, beauty, love , affection.

As long as you harm none do as you will as the moral code.

At one with nature. Peaceful...

When is the last time you heard of wicken wars or terrorisim or mass organised abuse etc...?

I mean, they existed. you can't say they didn't.
But where are they in the bible?
If you can take it literally, as many christians who believe in creationism do, how do you explain everything else?

And if God made man in his image, then how do you explain why we've changed in appearance in the last 20,000 years?

How do you explain cavemen?

I'm not just trying to bash christians, i am serious...but i think that you should be able to back up what you beleive in with SOMETHING, and i want to know, so i know both sides, what the christian answer is, and if there is one.

And the christian answer isn't "read the bible."
because that doesn't answer the question.

I've read the bible. Even if it HAS the answers, it ITSELF isn't the answer.

I think it's a cop out when people just tell you to read the bible.
People ask, "How do you know the Bible is right?" and people say "duh! the bible says so and so!" and they rattle off bible verses that say the bible is right. Dumb.

"And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them."

He just made a mistake?

Why do christians find it offensive to believe that Jesus had a family/or was married/or had children of his own.?? When the Da vinci code came out there was a huge uproar in the christian community. People were saying that this was not true and that it could never be true. Why cant it be true, why do you find it offensive?

PS: I just want to know, im not anti any religion. I think that if any God indeed had a family it doesnt take away any of his abilities, credibility or taint him in any way.

This is my third Q [please check out the others] in a set made for sorting out actual helpful thoughts on ethics/morality w/out the idea of a Godhead. Its all too obvious the masses are brainwashed as you'll see in my other two previous Q's. "God" this, "god" that, and all without support of THEIR OWN ideas, only references to the bible and a perverse thought process that literally degrades humans in a notion that focuses on the vices of normal people in everday life and not on the good of the world. The same thing, "if it wasnt for "God" ther would be no morals".

Really? Are you that sickened by religious psychosis and/or the bandwagon faith of society that it is impossible for you to belive or at least percieve we as people have the POWER to help one another, derive just standards, and simply be peaceful people w/out the help of a cultural opiate passed on though the ages? Pitiful

Any1 w/ an answer that isnt empty of a REAL thought process, and not a carboncopy mindset please

My Dad always joked he used to belong to one, but is it just a loose term rather than an actual society?

As I was asking and answering some questions on here today it occured to me, maybe it's us. Maybe we, as in Christians, are the reasons why people turn their backs from the Lord because of HOW we approach the lost. I hear a lot about how Christians hound people and try to TELL them that they should take their life to the Lord. But maybe we're going about it the wrong way... I know that I do not like being hounded by the early Saturday morning salesman calling my home at 7.30 in the morning. Maybe thats how we are coming across to the people who need God in their life.

I know that we are trying to do the Lord's work, but maybe there are times to listen and times to speak. I am in no way saying, "do not preach the Word," but what I am saying is maybe we need to come up with a better game plan, rather than throwing the Bible at people.

I know its not ALL christians, but for some of us who point fingers and judge, remember "do not judge and thou shalt not be judged."

Hey
Im a Catholic and I was visiting a Baptist church today. I thought their ethos made SOOOO much more sense than that of the Catholic Faith. Should I convert when I'm older?
Thanks
