they made it so that woman would look slightly inferior to man as a ploy to stay in control and brainwash women and men that women were somehow inferior? That gave them the edge. Also they wrote rules in there so humanity wouldnt get out of control. 'Your creator' wrote this so it must be true. But a bunch of men from the old times just wrote it. True or False?

I have been reading for sometime now some of the statements that so called Christians are saying to you. And though I do not personally owe you an apology, still I give it to you. every time I read these questions toward Athiests, It is always in a disrespectful manner. They are always bashing you with their "You will burn in hell" and other (misguided) bible beliefs.
1 Peter 3:15 says...But sanctify the Christ as Lord in YOUR hearts, always ready to make a defense before everyone that demands of YOU a reason for the hope in YOU, but doing so together with a mild temper and deep respect.
Obviously from this scripture, many of these proclaimers do not know Gods word, and have failed to use it right in discussing their belief in it. I , am one of Jehovah's Witnesses. And I respect you and your beliefs. If ever you are approached by a JW. they will try to engage in a conversation with you and try to reason in dignified manner. WE will not threaten you with Hellfire, or condesend you.

and were each murdered for the faith that they had in the keeping of those sacred LAWS. On the 3rd page of the so called NewTestiment, Mt. 5:17-19 Yahshua taught "Do not think that I have come to destroy the LAW & THE PROPHETS; I HAVE NOT COME TO DESTROY THEM, BUT RATHER TO ESTABLISH THEM! ***" Yahshua knew that the first thing that satan would try to do would be to get people to hate the writtings of the Law & the Prophets, because that is where the very heart of YAHWEH can be found!!! Later, while the Apostle Paul was emprisoned he was still inspired to write in Romans 2:13 "For not the hearers of the Law are the righteous in the sight of YAHWEH, but the doers of the Law are the Righteous!" Also, in 3:31 he asks? "Are we then doing away with the Law through the faith? By no means! Rather, we establish the Law!!!" Now, at what point do christians think that those holy & righteous laws were done away with? Are we more intellegent than our own Creator, to regect HIM & rule ourselves?!!

I've noticed this morning that a lot of Christians seem to think that the KJV is the original translation of the Bible. I think I even saw one person say it's the original version. (OK, yeah, I know I'm slow...don't know why it took me this long to notice. :-P)

So, my questions are: Who is teaching this falsehood and why is nobody correcting the error when we see it? Or am I misreading these answers?

I am not bashing anyone, I'm just curious.

In the bible it says that Jesus will come back when no one expects it....

Well everyone is saying Dec. 21, 2012 right?(well a lot).

Well...when it turns midnight on Dec. 21, 2012 a lot of people will be waiting...but nothing will happen. So when they're all like "Crap, nothing happened" and don't expect anything TO happen...is that when Jesus will come? When people give up the hope he will come on that day?
