Okay I've Seen questions similar to this all over Yahho! Answers...ALL THE ANSWERS ARE PUTTING DOWN THE ONE WHO WROTE THE QUESTION? I bet i will get a bunch of hate answers and crap like that but really, Can you believe this bible? It's all a scam. Made up. Why worship someone you never saw or knew. You are obsessed christians. And if you were a true christian you wouldn't be putting down athiests! Now would you? The Society these days is filled with religous people and to me I have no idea how the hell you can believe this crap. You don't believe in magic right? Well, you certainly can believe in God Creating Each and Evry one of us right? Thats called sex you morons. And yes I will keep putting you down for putting down athiests

Pagans live by the credo not to harm anyone. The Wicca Rede says that "An harm it none, do as you will?". Pagans used to have war gods. Do Neo-pagans not worship these? Are they pacifist?

in christianity, there are sects. i only know about nine of them, even though i know there are many more. but the nine i know are....
1)Roman catholic
2)orthodox
3)lutheran
4)calvinist
5)anabaptist
6) anglican
7)presbyterian
8)methodist
9)protestant

now correct me if i am wrong, but Lutheran, calvinist, prebyterian, and the methodist sects are a part of the protestant branch? yes? No?

now, why are there so many sects within this religion? i think there was a split somewhere...right? and i think they call it the Protestant Reformation, or the Radical reformation, or was it the Catholic reformation? (or are they all the same thing?) but how/why/when did they all separate? what things separated into what things? are different sects more "related" than to other sects? (if that makes sense)
let me point out that it is still summer for me and i have not begun school yet......
Thanks :)

My Cajun friend had 3 good

arguments that Jesus was a Cajun:



1. He liked to serve fish to his friends.

2. He could make his own wine.

3. He wasn't afraid of water.



My Black friend had 3 good arguments that Jesus was Black:



1. He called everyone "brother."

2. He liked Gospel.

3. He couldn't get a fair trial.





My Italian friend gave his 3 equally good arguments

that Jesus was Italian:



1. He talked with his hands.

2. He had wine with every meal.

3. He used olive oil.





My California friend also had 3 equally good

arguments that Jesus was a Californian:



1. He never cut his hair.

2. He walked around barefoot all the time.

3. He started a new religion.





My Irish friend then gave his 3 equally good

arguments that Jesus was Irish:



1. He never got married.

2. He was always telling stories.

3. He loved green pastures.



But, my women friends have the most compelling

evidence that Jesus was a woman:



1. He fed a crowd at a moment's notice when there

was no food.



2. He kept trying to get a message across to a

bunch of men who just didn't get it.



3. And, even when he was dead, he had to get

up because there was more work to do.

He did preach forgiveness, but he said it like this: "Forgive others and God will forgive you." It's from the Sermon on the Mount."

It sounds very simple and straightforward to me... it simply means we have to change our ways. That whole sermon is about how WE have to change. Nothing about how we don't have to change, and Jesus will take on the punishment for us. Jesus didn't preach that kind of Law.

The Law Jesus taught is God will treat us as we treat others, and if we don't fogive, God will not forgive us. So why do Christians get upset when I simply remind them of what Jesus actually taught?

In most cases my source is http://gospelenigma.com Can't say I agree with everything in the book, but in general, it simply turns the attention from what Paul preached to what Jesus preached. One man even said "Heresy, Heresy!"

So what is it about the things that Jesus taught that gets Christians so upset?

"See the look on people faces that are being sent to hell?I just read the trillionth statement from a supposed "christian" regarding how "they can't wait to see the look on atheists' faces...priceless?So,will there be a gallery or something for the believers to get their kicks watching people be sent to hell?Like the Roman "gladiator games"?Can someone who is waiting in gleeful anticipation of seeing people be sentenced to hellfire even be admitted to heaven?.Would you want that person as a neighbor in Heaven?Sounds like a crummy neighborhood if people who get a kick from the thought of others burning in hell get in.

like, for instance, I queried the world being made in six days, and Mr. Religious (and there are many) said that the bible was written in a different language and could have been mis-read; six of our days being six million in another language; or, the far-fetched stories of three loaves and five fishes etc., was really 2,000 for each.
If it doesn`t fit, make it, or alter it. Is religion based on make-believe. What do you think? No quotes, no insults, no proof?
And `FAITH` does not count, that is just a way of saying: "I cannot prove it but I believe it."

I've being put of a lot since reading more into it and some of the stuff in their is really unfair for instence someone getting rape they are looked down on thats awful!

I'm really going to think about moving the bible to the side, and concentrating on my love for God but not the Biblical version of him.

Anyone else feel this way? is their a name for that? or am I just a 'theist' a believer in God.

I mean all the atheists of the world and all the religion believers. Will it be religion believers because they are greater in number or will the atheists beat them with their higher IQ (if they actually do have a higher IQ)? What's your opinion?
