Sure, it's crazy, but how many famous scientologists have been caught saying hateful things in public?

It seems like christians have a habit of making hateful and stupid remarks.

THERE'S ALL THE GOD DAMN PROOF IN THE WORLD!!!

Pictures, videos, EVEN THE GERMANS ADMIT IT HAPPENED!

YOU WOULDN'T GET PEOPLE TO STARVE FOR A WEEK AND BEAT THEM UP AND KILL A FEW THOUSAND PEOPLE JUST TO TAPE THEM SO THAT PEOPLE WOULD FEEL SORRY FOR THE JEWS!

AND IF THEY WOULD WANT THAT, THEN THE JEWS WOULD ACTUALLY MENTION IT FROM TIME TO TIME; BUT IT'S EVERYONE ELSE WHO MENTION IT WHILE THE JEWS DON'T EVEN COMPLAIN!!!



ARE SOME PEOPLE SIMPLY TOO DUMB TO GET THAT?!?

Imagine this. You’ve just bought a new home which you furnish with all sorts of nice fittings and fixtures, then prepare the grounds and garden. You plant a wide range of trees, shrubs, flowers, plants and vegetables. You clip and prune as time goes on, spray the weeds, and generally keep your property in good shape.

Many years pass and your gardens are flourishing, not a weed to be seen anywhere. You head off on holiday, a weed pops up and bugs start to crawl all over it. Not to worry, when you return home you spray the gardens, killing all the bugs and weeds. Everything is back to normal.

Now consider the universe. After billions of years a little planet (weed) called Earth pops up and it’s crawling with bugs called humans. Do you really think the gardener (or creator) really cares about the bugs and weeds? Do you think the gardener will destroy you? Do you think that the bugs (humans) on the weed (Earth) have any idea what’s going on in the rest of universe?

If sex is solely for procreation then I can understand why your bible does not permit men to masturbate as they are spilling millions of sperm that could make a baby. Is it also a sin for women to masturbate since when they reach orgasm they are not wasting baby making material? And also is it a sin for a woman to ovulate when she is not sexually active as the egg that goes unfertilized is basically being wasted?

There are many Muslims who claim Allah requires them to do their violence...is this possible you think?

Anyone who responds with "Christians do the same", please be specific. McVeigh never claimed he was bombing for Jesus, in fact, his motive is very well understood and has nothing whatsoever to do with any religion. So if you want to be PC, fine, but if you cant be specific then you are just being a PC drone....and think about it....what good does that really do? Will Islamists stop their war everywhere in the world becausindlessly some ignorant PC drone in America is mindlessly apologizing for them?

First I'm a believer. I wanted to ask you what is the "ONE" thing you wish that us Christians would just get! This is not to the atheist that comes on here and say's things like: Jesus sucks! I want to hear from the thinkers, the one's that would love to get a message across...the one thing you wish we would just GET!

just curious!

Disadvantages of having faith in God

1. Prevents you from thinking logically about your belief in God
2. Prevents you from questioning your belief in God
3. Prevents you from making sense in a debate with an Atheist
4. Has nothing to do with if God actually exist
5. Makes people look stupid when they say they have faith in God

Advantages of having faith in God

1. it's comfortable for lazy thinkers
2. It's a good get away in a losing debate
3. It's a good thing to mention when you dont know what to say
4. A good way to trick yourself into believing anything
5. It's a good mental block for anti thinkers

I ask this to spark interest in finding out the truth about easter. Many don't know that satan has brought this in to christianity and in return has almost completely done away with Passover. The 'Perfect Passover Lamb'. easter is worship of the sun. Hence the 'easter sunrise service'....
Any thoughts??

What does it mean to you to be enlightened? Does it mean that your God-aware or is it just a simple adjective to you?

There is no real correct answer, but 10 points goes to the most enlightened one, lol.

Now I really don't mean to bash anyone. If you believe in God because of faith and/or what you perceive as personal experience of him, ore power to you. I disagree with you but since it's faith it would be pointless trying to convince you otherwise and I don't want to, as long as you're a good person have faith in anything you want. It hurts no one.

However, it does bother me when people try to prove it and have no evidence. You point to holes in other theories like the big bang and evolution and say God did it. That is by no means proof or evidence of any kind. All human conceived ideas are as imperfect as their creator but are at least trying to use fact to back it up. So pointing to an imperfection in a different theory does not make your theory anymore valid in any case ever for anything at all. Something not being blue is not proof that it is red. A piece of an old boat could prove and ark and even a flood, but not a God. Experience is subject to interpretation and is not fact.

"Enter by the narrow gate; for the gate is wide, and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and many are those who enter by it. For the gate is small, and the way is narrow that leads to life, and few are those who find it." (Jesus- Matthew 7:13-14)

To the world, the cross seems like foolishness. And he is surrounded by the world.

A little wordy, but only because I want the relevant points to be clear. If you have the mental stamina, bear with me...

You and your wife were walking down an alley and suddenly a madman grabbed your wife and threw her in a ditch. The madman then stands above the ditch, and using A DIFFERENT lady as a human shield (one whom the madman would not kill on his own), is preparing to shoot your wife (who he wishes to kill for whatever crazy reason).

You have a gun. You can try to shoot the madman, but may end up also killing the human-sheild-lady in the process.

Choice:
Try to shoot the madman, with the risk of shooting the other lady too
Or
Let the madman shoot your wife.


Which would you choose? Would you fault someone for choosing otherwise?

How many of you are Catholic? Why are you Catholic and/or why do you love it so much?

(I am Catholic, so you dont have to explain the religion to me, just why you are what you are)

She's posted 182 Questions all in one day. Every one of them accusatory in nature.

Who else finds her to be inciting anger and hatred?

Is this what being a "Christian" is all about?

I mean, if it comes down to it and the Bible simply could no longer be considered the "Word of God", don't you think the ideals would still continue? Do you really need a book that was written by your God? Why all the pressure to keep this Bible when you could just use it for its lessons and have just as successful a religion?

And to all the Atheists who wanted a basher question, I guess...how would that change the religion (for better or worse)?

Any other thoughts, comments?

I mean, I KNOW that God had to have come first, but I can't make myself believe it totally anymore. I know that something had to start it all, even evolution couldnt have begun without some initial spark, but I can't find the logical way to belief. Is there a concrete way to prove God exists?

to propagate their racist beliefs? What I mean is that in one breath they can say "God bless our meal" and then in the next claim black people are less evolved than white people (portrayed in the racial slurs "yard ape" or "porch monkey"). Also when I say they're "Christian", I mean that's what they call themselves, not necessarily what everyone else would call them.

Instead of hating Christians for loving God, His words and the Bible, go to the publishing source and protest outside their building. The publishers are making a fortune printing Bibles, we just read them!

theres 3 things that can happen when you die
1. Nothing! you just go into a deep sleep and you never wake up and your eaten by worms
2.You go to heaven if you do what the bible says you should do
3.You go to Hell if you dont dont do what the bible says.


Now a logical person would choose #2. unless you are a gambler then you would choose #1,unless you believe you were already going then you would choose #2and #1.but unless you hated God and knew he was real then you would Default to # 3.

what do you think of traditional vs. new -aged churches? Do they really match up?

I recently learned that pentacostalism is very hard on women ( which I noticed throughout my life) and was concidered a cult at one point.
I was raised in a black, carribean pentacostal small church.
I recently went to college and found a nice church that seems religious but is much diffrent from what I was raised in. It's mixed race and people dont really wear "sunday best" it's very come as you are. I dunno maybe later in my life I may change my denomination? They seem VERY sincere,but

what do you think people?
