Religion & Spirituality - 19 June 2007

Some Christians say that marriage requires God. I say God is imaginary and the bible is fake. My friends' wedding last month was presided by over a judge, with no bible and not one mention of God, Jesus or any supernatural mythology.

I reject your God, therefore I reject His supposed definition of marriage. Marriage is a civil contract regulated by the government. Married people filing taxes differently has nothing to do with church and everything to do with law.

So, if according to the first ammendment, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion...", it means you can't outlaw it because *your* Holy scripture says it's wrong.

Why do certain Christians assume only Christian marriages are legal?

An "irish charmer" recently broght to my attention of a hateful slang term that is being used to describe fundementalist Christians.

"FUNDIES"

Is this offensive to ANYONE?

I kind of like it.

When I realized that my faith has done nothing for me over the last year and a half, it was then, I made this decision. I have lost my girlfriend, mom, and both grandparents over this time. I have lost a job I held for 13 years over this time. My house has been broken into twice over this time. And now... I've been told that I have diabetes.

So do I believe in God...NO! Would God let things like this happen to one individual who has been faithful all these years in such a short time...NO! If there was a God, would the Holocaust have happened many years ago...NO! Would we be in such stupid war where people kill their own. Is it fair for us to have faith in something that hasn't shown itself or presence for over 2000 years...NO!

How many people have died at the hands of someone else, and probably cried out "Dear God...Please NO", only to die and not be heard? I have realized it's just another way to make someone else rich by donating to a cause that can't be proved.

In Luc 23:24, Jesus promised one of the gansters crucified with Him, that on that night he (the ganster) will dwell in paradise with Himself.

Elsewhere in Act 2:31, in the creed, we learn that Jesus between his death and resurection was in hell for three days.

How could He have been both in paradise with the ganster and in hell at the same time?
Nothing can part me from my God, but it is a quest for knowledge, as it is a bit of concern.

Refering to my other question most christians said that we choose hell and god does not send us there. In the case of a person born into another religion and raised in a non-christian nation does that mean even though he was not taught it he goes to hell?
What about children who are non-christian? Do they go to hell too?

The Vatican have just issued their 10 Motoring Commandments, including Thou Shalt not use thy car as a place of sin.
As a practicing non-Catholic I would like to break this commandment without delay, any suggestions?
Oh and the Pope also recommends praying while driving. Please tell me you can pray with your eyes open...

After being raised in a church of God I've learned that there are individuals out there that don't take religion seriously like they should. For instance, some smoke, go party on friday and to church on Sunday but claim they are a christian. You will also notice they take verses in the bible to fit the situtation they are in. For instance when in an argument they will through a verse at you while cusing you out with profanity words. The list goes on. Do you consider these people true hypercrits? If so, who is worse?

Notice there aren't Mormon sites, forums.. etc.. dedicated to bashing other faiths.. Why all the hate from these faiths who claim to be followers of Christ?

I AM a christian! I'm Catholic.

I HAVE read the Bible. I also read the God delusion, in fact, I read a lot of books, and that's why when I make an opinion, it is an informed opinion, and when it is a question, it is a reasonable, thought out question.

Can someone please tell me why fundementalists dismiss my questions by labelling me as an athiest and telling me to read the Bible JUST BECAUSE my questions are difficult and raise awareness of the inherrent flaws in following the Bible to the letter?

I answered a question on religeon and atheism. I am a Christian, but I believe everyone has a right to believe as they choose. I do not try to push my religeon on my friends but choose to lead them to God by example. You can lead a lot farther than you can push. A self-righous teenager IM'd me saying I was condemning people to Hell by not trying to force them to believe! I thought it was rude and inconciderate of her to come into my home putting me down. What do you think?

Religion has, from time to time, boycotted various fiction books. However, a religious figure once told me that half of what is in the Bible is "crap," and is not true. If this man was correct, than shouldn't the Bible itself be removed from religion?

Is humor a tool of Satan or something? I mean, for as much as humor is such a large part of peoples lives, the bible must be the most un-funny book ever written...
