Never mind the inquisition, and the torture and killing of innocent people for heresy…

Never mind the difference of opinion relating to His family tree, causing constant hatred and wars in the ‘Holy Land’…

Never mind 9/11 and 7/7, and the constant threat of terrorism from extreme God-lovers…

Never mind the strange bloke waving his Bible and shouting extreme nonsense across an otherwise peaceful shopping area...

Never mind all that where God takes peace and makes noise and trouble…

What about my right to have some sleep on a Sunday morning after 6 days hard work and a night out on Saturday, instead of being woken up by bl**dy church bells???

I know, I know – it’s not God’s fault – it’s the people who believe in him. And that’s why I’m asking YOU. Well it would have been pointless asking HIM, wouldn’t it?

Any chance of a bit of peace and respect?

The next day, i get a message from the Christian who answered below me saying(in exact words)Message: grow up *** hole.you will find yourself in eternal Hell.Put a spell on me ******* moron.god has me covered.

the bible are there through the work of The Holy Spirit who worked through him to encourage those books especially The book of Revelation if it wasn't for him (The Holy Spirit working through him) the Book of Revelations wouldn't be there and since The Holy Spirit doesn't dwell/work through evil sinners he must of been wrong about the books and they were not led to by The Holy Spirit... Anyways why do you think that augustine was evil he is a fountain-head of most christian protestant sects?

Last night I was laying on my bed, talking on the phone. i was laying on my back and not leaning on anything. All of a sudden I felt a burning feeling and pressure on my wrist. "Ow!" I looked down and saw a bite mark on my wrist. I ran to show my roomate and she accused me of biting my own wrist(i think the person i was talking to would have noticed something in my mouth), then, when i denied that said it wasn't a bite mark. I then bit my other wrist and it looked exactly like the other mark but the indents were different(as if from different teeth). The mark progressed exactly as the bite mark i gave myself; getting red & puffy, ect....
Im not saying it was a ghost or anything but how do you explain that???? Any ideas??

Please define " shoving your religion down my throat ".
Does that mean that if a Christian speaks their mind. . . then they are guilty of shoving their religion down your throat ?? Oh, and I would like clear examples to help me understand. OK?

Also, please define exactly how you think the Church CONTROLS Christians. Do they not have free will ?? To believe what they want.. . .just like you ?? Oh, and I really need strong examples of that as well. . . Thank you very much.

I have seen demons, they linger around, whispering into our 'ears.' They are the ones that create fear, anxiety, and spiritual pain. They mock us, we can have several demons around us daily. Do you make it a habbit to cast out the demons in the name of the Lord from yourself? (If you don't believe in demons, then there's really no need for you to answer is there?! Save face and move on)

Just wondering, I'm not Christian myself. Its just that I cant recall the last time I met a religious person (not including atheism), expect the Jehovah Witness that last came to see me.

Oh and I'm not saying that its a good thing if it is 'dying out' before anyone gets upset!

Will of God: "I will have mercy, and not sacrifice" is the same will and stated purpose of Christ(Son of God) coming, as noted in Psalms 40:6; Psalms 51:16; Jeremiah 6:20; Hosea 6:6; Matthew 6:10; Matthew 9:13; Matthew 12:7; John 17:4; Hebrews 10:7-10.

But the will of the Father is not the same will of Jesus(Son of Man) in Luke 22:42 "Father...not my will, but thine, be done".

Is the Father of Jesus perhaps different than the Father of Christ? If they are one, their will should also be one, not two different wills.

"Ship of Fools" makes fun of Christians...but I've never seen one that makes fun of Muslims.

If we are all grown up with a sense of humor no one needs to be offended by a laugh... After all, we're all fallible human beings right?

Because they are unholy filthyy Jews in disguise--who wants to destroy God's Holy Church from within. They misinterpret LOVE to save the evil homoperverts and filthyy ******* and infidels. NO--Love is not so easy and cheap. Jesus showed his LOVE--when he annihilated Sodom and Gomorrah. He showed Love--when he flooded the Whole Earth. He showed Love--when he told us to love our ENEMIES like OURSELVES. He Showed Love when he told us to Hate our fathers and mothers. He showed Love when he told us about the GNASHING OF TEETHS. So, LOVE IS NOT SO EASY. LOVE IS GENERATED BY A LOT OF SACRIFICE AND TORMENT AND FIGHT. We TORMENT OUR ENEMIES BECAUSE WE TORMENT OURSELVES.WE FIGHT OUR ENEMIES BECAUSE WE FIGHT OURSELVES FOR CHRIST'S SAKE. WE JUDGE BECOZ WE JUDGE OURSELVES. WE HATE AND KILL ONLY FOR GOD'S SAKE--AND THIS IS TRUE LOVE--WHEN YOU ARE ABLE TO HATE YOUR FATHER AND MOTHER AND EVEN YOURSELF For Christ's sake. LET US JOIN THE HOLY WAR!!!!!!

I am wondering how many Christians actually study the bible? How many of you have read it cover to cover? Of the people who have read the whole bible, how many of you still believe it?

I was raised in the church and I don't know of many Christians who have read it all the way through so be honest! If a lot of people on here say they have read it all the way through, every verse on every page, I know you are lying.

I stopped believing the Bible after I read most of it. I still have not read every book though, but I read the Old Testament and about half of the New, and I just couldn't believe it any more.
