1) Christians...and Athiests. Don't you ever wish that we could just be one big family and not juding us by our religion? Now, I have been expericing more Athiests and Christians both arguing with each other just because they're trying to prove that God doesn't exist and that God does exist. A lot of people have once told me that some Athiests are rude to Christians because some of us have been swearing at them and forcing them to believe in our religion. Don't any of you guys both Christians and athiests just wish that someday, we won't judge eachother because of our religion? And that someday there wouldn't be an Anti-Christ war? Please tell why.
2) Do you ever wish that you would just die, because of how bad life is getting, and how worse it is getting while it's already bad? I have told tons of people that complain about their lives and saying that they want to kill themselves yet I want to do that too.

After the flood, all the vegitation would have drowned, so what did the animals have to eat? Also, how did we get the populations we have today considering the lack of variety in the gene pool if there was only 1 male and 1 female of every animal?

Note: The Bible and "God" isn't science. Therefore, answers with either of them are not valid answers to this question.

I am a Christian who lives in a country in Latin America, what do I have to do with the Middle Eastern War? War is caused by the God of Christians. I think you are generalizing with that statement.

How do we know that the bible is correct?
It was written thousands of years ago by men. It has been passed down through many corrupt times ( you cannot all agree that the church has been directly in the will of god since it was written.) And even the actual books in the new testament were not actually compiled as they are today untill 397 A.D. at the Councill of cCarthage.

The Bushians, Bush Christians, try to justify combining church and state today in 2 ways:
1. Claim there is no such separation.
2. Claim cuz the forefathers were Christian that they wanted it this way.

So, let's examine what the forefathers were thinkin in their own words so u can stop falsely speaking 4 them:

Thomas Jefferson, one of our Christian forefathers stated on this topic: "...I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should "make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof, thus building a wall of separation between Church and State."
http://www.leaderu.com/orgs/probe/docs/churchstate.html

Emphasis on the last sentence in his quote, "thus building a wall of separation between Church and State."

I know you Bushians wont agree with bold truth and fact cuz you lack that ability and only want to believe what you want to be true.

But there it is in your face!

Joshua10:13 The sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the nation had avenged themselves of their enemies. Isn't this written in the book of Jashar? The sun stayed in the midst of the sky, and didn't hurry to go down about a whole day.

So many Christians feel that they have an obligation to serve a God that is so far away is really does not know what any human is truly going through in life. Also as humans, none of us asked to be born or to be brought into creation. All that I hear from Christians is that I owe God a debt of gratitude and I should be happy about being alive. The world is a disaster, and I did not ask to be brought into it in the first place. It seems that if anything at all God owes me for putting me on this lousy earth, not the other way around.

Okay since i can remember i had these weird things happen to me when i went to sleep, Just when falling asleep i would be paralyzed and couldnt scream or even breath sometimes. i thought it was just a normal thing untill i found out it wasnt. so when i was 14 i went to see professionals and they said it was Hypnagogic hallucinations and gave me pills but they didnt help.as time passed things got worse, i started seeing these horible things(rather not say). So i went to see a spiritual women and she said it was Demonic Possessions and the hallucinations were demons. So what should i do? are they real or not?

The majority of atheists I see here are a little antipathetic or "hostile" and seems they aren't satisfied with their system of believes. If you really were satisfied with your believes you would have forgotten about Christians long time ago. Instead of accepting and respecting other people you do the opposite. Isn't your system of believes helping you gain inner peace? Because you definitely are not showing it, and the impression that I get is that you are dissatisfied with what you believe and you need to make others look bad to fill that emptiness.

Revelation 22:18-19
18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.

I bring this up because I have seen it way too many times where this is cited as "proof" that there can't be any more scripture in addition to the Bible, or any more revelation from God. Thus, God's lips are sealed forever. First of all, the book of Revelation (which is really the "book" John refers to) was written 200+ years before the "Bible" even existed! Secondly, it is agreed by many scholars that Revelation was not even the last book written. And finally, what do you think Moses implied (Deut. 4:2) when he basically said the same thing? No more scripture?

I was having a discussion with my wife about the ethical implications of Psalm 137; in particular, the last 3 lines (below). She said, 'that's funny, I don't remember that part', and reached for her prayer book, to find that these 3 lines were not there. Could this be a reason some Christians flatly deny the bible contains this kind of stuff? They are not given the full story.

137:7 Remember, O LORD, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem; who said, Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.
137:8 O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us.
137:9 Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.

Because it would have been Adam and Eve and their children, who would have then had to sleep with each other in order to make more people. Or was there anyone else around?

Didnt you always respect the professor who didnt give the suck-ups "A's" just for pathetically trying to stroke the professors ego? SO why see God any differently?

There are many decent religious people, but today, more than ever, it is clear that the worst people on earth are also ultra-pious...never missing a God-suck-up session. So God's gonna do what with that....reward the F (in life) student with eternal virgin orgies?

Ok, heres a radical idea. Imagine (if God exists) a secure self-sufficient God who doesnt give a sh** whether your pathetically try to suck-up to him, hes just gonna grade you on how you live...period. Whoa...wacky idea.
