Religion & Spirituality - 31 July 2006

so like yesterday my dad and mom wanted me to get baptized....but i refused because i have a lot of doubt about christianity and religion in general, iv been an agnostic since i was 12 and i have read my bible properly, i have also read the hindu vedas, the quran, the satanic bible and i have been reading up on darwin theorys and a couple of others too for the past 4 years...i go to church regularly and by myself without having argument because i find religion quite interesting, mainly because of the hope it gives people...anyway the problem is my dad who is a priest wants me to belive get baptized and wants me to call myself a christian....so my question is does questioning the bible anger the god of zion in the bible?...i know mosses and jonah did it and they both were punished....

I think so. People that get up from wheelchairs and walk is so phony. When they fall after a so called healing is rediculous.
Why is it that people come to be healed are put in the back of the room and V.I.P. and people that give large amounts of money are put in front.

Benny Hinn is such a phony bastard. He will some day stand before God to explain his doings.

I know for a fact that a verse or line for that matter in our books can have so many understandings and scholars have studied them over and over again and still needs to study more to fully understand its meanings. Yet we have these mouthers claiming they know all and wants to advise which is best.

Christ is love, hate their sins, do not hate them. If you read your bible you know that God said he would bless the seed of Ishmael, so God loves them, shouldn't you? If you are a Christian, you know that they will not be destroyed.

I do not hate either side in this dispute. I know that both have done many wrongs, and had many wrongs performed against them. Hate will only beget hate.

[God to Abraham] And as for Ishmael, I have heard you: I will surely bless him; I will make him fruitful and will greatly increase his numbers. He will be the father of twelve rulers, and I will make him into a great nation. But my covenant I will establish with Isaac, whom Sarah will bear to you by this time next year." (Genesis 17)

You make the call.

1) Once it took over politically, Christianity set out to eradicate Classical Civilization. So much was lost!

2) In so doing, they started a thousand year Dark Ages. Life was miserable, progress stultified.

3) They killed not only pagans, but even other Christians with non-"orthodox" views.

4) The Crusades-- wrongheaded fiascos.

5) The Inquisition-- tyrannical, torturous.

6) Thirty Years' War-- depopulated Europe.

7) Witch burning

8) The Religious Right-- retrograde, theocracy-craving radicals

Jesus supposedly said, "By their fruits shall you know them. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit." The fruits of Christianity are listed above. It has been so evil so much that, by Jesus's criterion, it cannot be from God.

What if someone in modern times such as David Koresh,who claimed to be the returning Messiah,really was and we killed him.How are we to actually know when Christ has returned.I think that if he really were coming back he would change his mind after looking at the mess we humans have made of this Earth.

I'm trying to reconcile the idea of the biblical God being a God who loves Humanity, and a few verses in the bible.

Consider the following:
After God curses all of Humanity with death, disease, and the inheritance of original sin, Humans go out and multiply. Eventually, God decides death, disease, and inheritance of original sin isn't enough.

He decides to drown all Humanity, with the exception of Noah and his immediate family because they still worship God.

God decides to drown every new born infant, toddler, child, pregnant woman, and the rest of Humanity.

In fact, that not being enough, God also decides to drown every living creature that breathes air except those saved on the Ark.

So how does this demonstrate God's love for Humanity? He's wiped out every human being except eight.

At church we are called upon to sacrifice two meals (all food and all drink including water) once per month and give at least the value of those meals as a fast offering. I can't sacrifice the meals due to health reasons, but do give an equivalent of money and try to sacrifice something else. But I got to thinking, for my sacrifice to be a true sacrifice, I must give up something that is difficult to give up. What do you think?

Judas committed suicide, yet before that Jesus guarenteed him a throne in heaven (along with the other 11 before Judas became a traitor.)

So if you beleive Jesus never lied, then Judas is in heaven on a throne judging over one of the 12 tribes of Isreal.
