Does it mean it is not Gospel by Mark and Matthew. By 'according to' means other people also took part in fabricating all these dogmas?

Dogmatic Christians, and Open Minded Christians.

The Dogmatic Christians are those who constantly preach "the good word" to other people and cram their beliefs down other throats.

The Open minded Christians are those who hardly ever preach their beliefs to others, and do not try to force their beliefs upon other people's business.

What I don't understand is, most of the Open Minded Christians don't really believe in many of the values imposed by the Bible. For example, I've heard some O.M. Christians say that they do not have a problem with gay marriage or people, but does it not clearly say in the Bible that homosexuality is an abomination?

So if these kind O.M. Christians don't really believe in the values imposed by the Bible, why do they remain as Christians?

Do the East and West complete each other?
Do the East and West exist or they're just Jeographical concepts?
if they are just some concepts, why we compare them?

Just look how much more intelligent most of the Atheists questions and answers are here, for example. Isn’t this proof of Atheist’s divinity? And unlike your present god, you can actually talk directly to Atheists and receive our wisdom!

It amazes me how many times this Christian god orders the killing of innocent people even after the Ten Commandments said "Thou shalt not kill".

The god of the bible also allows slavery,child abuse and bashing babies against rocks.

This type of criminal behaviour should shock any moral person. This cannot be justified by saying that some god says it"s ok.

If more people would actually sit down and read the bible there would be a lot more atheists like myself.

Why do many "End Time Prophets" over look this "minor" detail in their philosophies?
Everyday the world ends for thousands of "someones" on this planet, and inevitably one day it will be you and me.
My question is what are you going to do to leave this world a better place before you go?
What memories will you hold most dearly?

we are taught /brainwashed from an early age about all the great and brill things that jesus supposedly did"ahem" but more people seem to have the traits of Judas the grass i mean Iscariot. i know a hell of a lot more folk who would tell tales on their own granny if they thought they would get them into trouble. i reckon judas was the son of god and as for virgin mary, yeah right, i know 2 marys 1 is extremely ugly and likes to cause trouble at work, the other 1 smells like a bog rat yes the book REALLY is true

say it be christianity/scientology are always weirdo's?

Wouldn't it be refreshing that someone deeply into there religion came off as normal everyday folk. I would respect there views so much more if they weren't trying to throw it down our throats.

What do you think???

ps, I'm not sure calling them weirdo's is the right term of phrase but that is what I think when I see these people on TV.

NOTHING NEW!!
I'm an atheist and my last question got the same old predictable answers. Those that believe REALLY do have complete blind, meaningless faith. NOT one of them could explain to me how Jesus did things but rather just gave me the weakest most pathetic answer "he is son of god"
To a non believer that means NOTHING and doesn't explain ANYTHING. You guys really do need a reality check.

Below is a quote from someone who clearly has NO CLUE of what he is talking about, yet will gladly spread this fictional dribble to any fools or sychophants who would listen.
The sheer ignorance is quite remarkable..:

"...the references in the Bible of the Behemoth, the footprints that you alluded to, and the many references worldwide about dragons.

Secondly, the idea that dinosaur fossils are millions of years old is based on the idea of evolution. They need to be millions of years old for evolution to be true. There is no way to determine how old they really are.

Carbon 14 is not a reliable dating system. Of the other dating systems (of which there are a few dozen), most give comparitively recent ages for the fossils.

My personal opinion is that no fossil would last for a million years. It would break down chemically long before that. Nothing lasts forever in this world.."

[One might start by reminding him that C14 is not used to date Dinosaur fossils, period..!!]
