Someone said Darkwins tackled the saying scripture is allegory, although pre-4th century this was a commonly understandable saying, which can be proved through many things. Could it be that Darkwins can't see patterns within scriptures and that he is devoid of logic? numeral patterns exist throughout the whole bible and basically all the scriptures. 3, 12, 7, and etc. Ouranos had 12 Children, Mohammad had 12 wives, Yeshua/Jesus had 12 apostles, in the Torah there is 12 tribes, in the revelation it says their is 12 fruits on the tree of life and it was commonly understood through Jewish mysticism that it was historically noted that the tree of life was allegoric for the complete mind.

Basically Mr Darkwins doesn't know that the point of scriptures is to be a catalyst to connect to ones own inner spiritual resources and that scriptures are not necessary once one begins to draw upon the inner source and gain gnosis. Why is it that reason stops when it comes to scriptures?

So I have had this argument:

basically, someone will say "homosexuality is evil because of Leviticus 20:13 and 1 Corinthians 6:9-11", and i will reply "ok, well, then you should not cut your beard because of Leviticus 19:27 and we should kill all nonChristians because of Deuteronomy 17:2 and 2 Chronicles 15:13", in which this person usually replies "no, those aren't true any more. it was a different time back then and now God doesn't expect us to follow those rules..."

Ok. So if someone quotes from Leviticus 20, and I quote from Leviticus 19, why is chapter 19 nullified?

How do right wing crazy nutjobs know which quotes to get mad about and write on their crazy protest signs, and how do they know which ones they can ignore? Where is the documentation for this?

I dont know which one really likes me, Alex(who lives here in the virgin islands), Belamy(Ghana), Miquel(Canada),Dwayne(Jamaica),Desroy(Jamaica),Ice(England)and Omar(Jamaica).

Qur’an 5:51 “Believers, take not Jews and Christians for your friends.”
Sahih Bukhari V6B61N577:
I heard the Prophet saying, "In the last days (of the world) there will appear young people with foolish thoughts and ideas. So, wherever you find them, kill them, for there will be a reward for their killers on the Day of Resurrection."
Bukhari [4:52:177]: Allah's Apostle said, "The Hour will not be established until you fight with the Jews, and the stone behind which a Jew will be hiding will say. "O Muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me, so kill him!"


Now, some muslim just told me that muslims love the Jews and venerated them?

And oh yes, if Moses (recognised by the muslims) brought the Jews into Israel, why are the muslims refusing the Jews a place at Israel today???

I mean for those who were atheist and then got saved, or for those who were raised Christian, and then stopped believing. Share your experiences which affected your choice to date..

Apollonius of Tyana had studied in the Himalayas about Lord Krishna and he returned and introduced these teachings to the Essenes, who became the first "Chrishn-ins", later Christians. The writings of Apollonius were re-written and plagiarized by Roman churchmen at the Council of Nicea three centuries later. In the fourth century, A.D., Hierocles accused the Christian priesthood of this plagury and of INVENTING a messiah by combining the name of the Druid sun god, Iesus, from the Western half of Constantine's Roman empire with the name Chrishna, from the Eastern half, which had become corrupted to Christ by that time.

Jesus's story is simply PLAGURISM!!! It was stolen from the pastimes of the Supreme Lord Sri Krishna who appeared on this earth 5,000 years ago. So it is time that all of these "Christians" admit their foolishness and surrender to the one true God, Lord Krishna.

What do you mean, God cannot create true love? I thought God (1) is omnipotent and (2) is the SOURCE of true love.

As is so often the case with rushed sequels, the new testament lacks the quirky sense of high drama of the original installment. Despite its marvelously inventive plot twists, it is my considered opinion that certain portions of the Bible are simply too ribald for children and no more suitable in a Christian home than a copy of Hustler! I do not allow smut in my home regardless of the author and, frankly, one is hard pressed to find a book more salacious than the one written by our blessed lord.

Was Hitler a christian? No, he wasn't. He did not even attend church.

What Hitler did is very similar to the muhammad of islam. He hated the Jews.

I don't see this. The Christian Religion gets made fun of or poked at all the time, from Non-Muslims and Muslims. But then when someone says something bad about Islam, there is a whole uproar of Muslims telling whoever said the bad thing to take it back. They make a big deal over the comment and how their religion is made fun of. They also say that whoever said it is bad and mean etc. But then some of the Muslims turn around and make fun of Christianity again. Can anyone say why?

In an effort to understand how a person could believe in the Bible fully, I'm going to post some Biblical contradictions. I invite Christians to explain them to the rest of us. I am specifically choosing quotes that are direct and clear so as to avoid talk of "interpretation."

Please do not tell us about this "interpretation" or that "interpretation." Anything can be "interpreted" through any number of different filters. If the Bible is the infallible word of God, nothing within it should need to be "interpreted."

First one:

PSA 145:9 The LORD is good to all: and his tender mercies are over all his works.

JER 13:14 And I will dash them one against another, even the fathers and the sons together, saith the LORD: I will not pity, nor spare, nor have mercy, but destroy them.

nowhere in my bible does it say strap on explosives to my chest and eliminate all those that differ with my opinions.
My beliefs say to love everyone and let live but it is hard to do that when there are people that want to kill me and my family because we are not part of their religion!
I call that madness.
