Religion & Spirituality - 8 October 2007

I have been seeing a lot of christians condeming Fundies, and condemning "worshiping religion".


I think I want to give you all a really big High five and a big hug.... however I am not sure.


So tell me what worshiping religion means to you.

I have been wondering about this lately, but what type of history book have you been reading before you became Catholic?
and what type of history about the Catholic Church have you been reading before you became Catholic?

I just thought of asking you because it seems to me that non-Catholics seem to have different version of history.

thank you.

I keep running into this crazy fundy online and he keeps posting that Roman Catholics, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists as well as anybody with a different religion other than his version of 'Christianity' will burn in hell on the day of judgement.

I argue with him and tell him that you can't simply judge the goodness in a person just because of his/her religion.

All he responded was with this verse:
Romans 3:12 'there are none that doeth good; no not one'
(Personally, I suspect this verse has been taken out of context)

How do you deal with people like this? He keeps going everywhere and posting up things that are so discriminating against other people, thinking it will 'turn them to Jesus'.

"How come God hates me"? Do you know people like this? Blames their own stupidity on God?

jokes about how logically inconstant and flawed fundamentalist christians are in their thinking?

or jokes about how twisted and neurotic they have to be deep down, to keep waking up every day, continuing to smile along with an oppressive, judgmental and bigoted world view?

1.Is Christianity or the bible just a bunch of stories, morals and values to be shared with the world and nothing more?

2. Is there really a god or is it built on hope?

3. Are the things you don't agree with based on fear to control us - over the writers own fears?

4. Is there a heaven or hell or is it bogus?

5. Why do we all need to believe in something? (including me)

Who's to say what one can believe? I don't mean to disrespect or provock anyone, I can't help asking questions that's all!

if not, explain this IN YOUR OWN WORDS christians.

For a woman whose young daughter had an unclean spirit heard about Him [Jesus—KB], and she came and fell at His feet. The woman was a Greek, a Syro-Phoenician by birth, and she kept asking Him to cast the demon out of her daughter. But Jesus said to her, “Let the children be filled first, for it is not good to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.” And she answered and said to Him, “Yes, Lord, yet even the dogs under the table eat from the children’s crumbs.” Then He said to her, “For this saying go your way; the demon has gone out of your daughter.” And when she had come to her house, she found the demon gone out, and her daughter lying on the bed (7:25-30; see also Matthew 15:21-28).

If you haven't been to the Middle East, calling someone a dog is the worst word you can ever call someone, they consider dogs the filthiest animals. So the all merciful Jesus (pbuh) cursed a woman, wasn't that sinful?

I'm not saying to hate anyone else because of different beliefs - I do not hate anyone!
Most people on RandS are either so tolerant, they choose not to see the Truth or they are so deceived by their false religion that they can't see the Truth. There is only one Truth.

If you claim to be a Christian, why don't you expose false-religions?

Doesn't that mean that nobody's going to hell?

I'm not really religious but I used to be scared sh*tless about that [being a sinner or sinning] so much so that when I was small I really wanted to be a priest or a nun to componsate. Isn't religion too restrictive?

Like do you really think that if we don't obbey the bibble (although not out of rebellion) that we all go to hell?

Because say I want to try stuff, I'm afraid I'll go to hell even if I mean good from it. Is there a hell?

Why do Catholics CLAIM that Peter was the first Pope. Any Historian will telll you the Peter NEVER went to Rome.
On top of this fact, if you took the time to open your Bibles, you would see the truth, that Peter NEVER had a follower of Non-Jews (Gentiles) Only Jewish followers.

Another one, why does the Catholic Church make a claim they chose what books go into the Bible. Doesn't God get the credit for that? And why after they make such a big deal about putting together these books, they do not even adhear to them?

How many think that Catholics make an idol of their religion? Why don't they talk about God's word, and the Bible instead of being so defensive of their religion?
