I don't understand why some people don't wanna be Christians (or Jewish or someone that believes and trusts in God). I mean, do they want to feel hopeless about death? Why would you want to feel like you're screwed in the world with no one more powerful than you there to help you?

After god takes up all the crazy holy rollers in the rapture and sends them up to heaven, i think that will create heaven on earth.

By getting all the bible thumpers off this planet, it will be heaven for everyone who had to listen to their judgemental bullsh!t for the last 2 millenia.

Jesus will tell them they didn't follow his commandments to love one another, and now they have to go live with his Dad in heaven. Remember, the God who smites people, kills them for touching the skin of a dead pig, and all that stuff! The Christians get to go up there!

Jesus (you know, he was always sort of a hippie) will stay down here on earth with us and hang out with the sinners, tax collectors, and lepers and show us all a what love really is - you know, the exact opposite thing that the christians have been showing us all for the last 2k years

I think i'd rather stay down here and party with jesus and let god take all the judgemental fruits to heaven and smite them when they do wrong!

Just recently I came into real touch with God and I can't stop thinking about him, or talking about him, its a great feeling. I am just wondering if theres anyone else who feels like that.

Too many people nowdays seem to be using shaking hands to trick someone into making a pact with them, the sealing and terms of which are not mutually understood. I have personally witnessed this form of theft and deceit too many times.

I would have to draw your attention to the recent movie called 'Crash'. A good commentary and exposé of the System itself, this movie features a scene in which two police officers shake hands. One is a senior officer who wields a lot of power. The other is a rookie who is onto the System of the other one, and disapproves. The senior police officer does not let go of the hand of the rookie. (He seems to be tricking him into a pact.) The rookie police officer then freaks out and tells the senior police to let go of his hand. Why do you think he wanted him to let go?

The characteristic handshake often is stiff as well as prolonged.

With so many people on the System, it poses a potential danger.

Do you admit that it is at least risky?

Look at how humans treat nature: sport hunting, medical/cosmetic testing on animals, deforestation, environmental pollutants from manufacturing, cars, etc

I believe in the sanctity of ALL life and that we don't have the right to just do as we please with nature. I also don't believe that we are somehow "superior" to all other life - your thoughts?

Does that strike you as being out of place? Why do women wear suits, is it because they want to be equal with men? Imagine if a man wore a dress to work, the looks he would get, yet a woman gets none.

Global terror only comes from the idealogy we call "Islam". While there is some regional terror that has no relationship to Quranic doctrines, it is only a problem to one region and very limited in scope and funding.

Most people cant cope with this issue because it goes against their simplistic/nieve worldview...that most people are "good" (whatever that is) and only "a few" people in any culture or belief system are "bad" (whatever that is). As a result, like a robot caught in a loop, whenever they see Islamic terror, they refuse to attribute this "bad thing" to Islam and find other culprits, like Bush or Putin or Jews or whoever else the Islamists claim are the real problem.

Even though almost all conflict in the world today is rooted in Islamic idealogy, involving millions of combatents, lets assume the ostrich people are right and its "only a few"...I then say...so what? Follow? Look, no Islam, no Islamic terror right...and that is the problem today...Islamic terror.

Now, right from the outset I will tell you that I don’t believe in God, but I know some of you do for various reasons.

Now, take the following Bible quote:
Reference Isaiah 13:15-18

“Anyone who is captured will be run through with a sword. Their little children will be dashed to death right before their eyes. Their homes will be sacked and their wives raped by the attacking hordes. For I will stir up the Medes against Babylon, and no amount of silver or gold will buy them off. The attacking armies will shoot down the young people with arrows. They will have no mercy on helpless babies and will show no compassion for the children.”

This is means that God allows women raped and your little children slaughtered.

So would you allow your children to be dashed to death with no mercy or compassion, if allowed by God?

Shouldn't we of supported the Christian side of that war? Doesn't the bible say that a house divided against itself cannot stand? If it wasn't for those brave Christians beating back the armies of Islam for the last thousand years, we would all be praying to Allah today. Is this betrayal any way to repay the defenders of Christianity and Western Civilization?
