and so i don't get reported, FSM followers, is it against your religion to celebrate thanksgiving because you're honouring a turkey instead of pasta?

So I have seen some questions regarding the historical Jesus. I also saw some claims that the ancient historian Josephus' account of Jesus is a forgery. Is this true? I would appreciate proof too, such as a link or literature. Are there any pieces of evidence which prove Jesus was a real person? I mean anything but the Bible.

You know, people who think 'God' is telling them to bomb, to demonize, to spread hate and make their children little 'warriors' etc?

I wonder what the rest of you do to combat that? Do you target them as quickly, often and heavily as when you target atheists, homosexuals and people of other faiths than yours?

why is it that the discussions on here are so heated??? i don't understand why people can't discuss their point of view without offending someone or without blessing somebody out...i mean i have very strong opinions that are completely out of a Christian perspective, but i would never try to force my opinions on someone else...i don't feel that is very effective for anybody...whether you're a Christian that's trying to make an atheist understand or you're an atheist trying to make a Christian see your view, forcefully speaking is not the way to get a point across...i've seen it happen so many times and people just get aggravated when you have your hot-headed opinions. i want to know what everyone thinks about this subject...don't hold back, but also try to keep your comments civil....

1) Ex. 20:3, say not have any other gods before Him. But catholics pray to mary, peter, etc etc.
2) Ex. 20:4, says not to make any graven image or likeness or anything that is in heaven above, earth below or in the water under the earth, yet catholics make images and statues of (what they believe they looked like) Jesus, mary, peter, etc etc.
3) Ex. 20:5 says not to bown down to them (the images/likeness) OR serve them, yet catholics argue they dont serve or praise the idols they make, but they still bow down to them and to the pope.
4) catholics argue that they dont praise mary, but pray to her because she "intercedes" for us, but Jesus said He is the way, truth and the life and no one goes to the Father but through HIM. So what exactly is mary inteceding for? Also, mary is D-E-A-D. Luke 24:5 says, why seek the LIVING (Jesus) among the DEAD?

Also, Im not bashing anyone, I just want clear BIBLICAL answers. No "history" "facts", just Biblical. Thank you, God bless!

wtf??
No religion I've come across can help me decipher what the hell she means when she does things.
Honestly, religion has a lot of big talk but in real life all it can do is offer some words of consolance.
Unless you crazy religious dudes wanna take a stab at my girl problem...
btw fellow religiously skeptical ppl are welcome to use their logic and reason to try and figure this girl out...it works better than using a religious text (i scoured a few of them to see if there was anything on ancient mating rituals or something) but still it seems to break down pretty quick.
Or maybe girls are just a logical paradox, never to be solved?
Women... -_-

I mean you have seen the state the world is in by "man's" great accomplishment right? And these same men who come up with great and lofty plans and schemes like getting a country trillions of dollars in debt while others starve, turn around and blame God for that atrocity?" too funny .....Hilarious in fact. I am so glad my future is in God's hands and not the hands of men and their little pea brains. Praise the LORD with me you who fear his name! :)

I have never met one that has not celebrated it. I personally don't as I am one of Jehovah's Witnesses and Jesus was not born on that date and in the Bible there is not one time Jesus ever celebrated anyone's B-day, not even his own.

To me, a person that does not believe in God at all should stay away from anything to do with anything supposedly Christian.
