Even though i believe in God, not one signle of the listed lies (or any other religious lies) influenced any portion of my life. I have done and will continue to do whatever it is that i desired to do without thinking of religion or religious beliefs first.

All of the above.
1. By convincing people that the godless are loveless.
2. By slowing down the progress of modern genetics - which effects us all.
3. I live in Iraq's neighbour. On certain days I can practically feel the heat coming from that direction...
4. Well, this one's true. Didn't you know we are all immoral b*stards? (see point 1).
5. Actually I think causality runs the other way around. I think you've got Satan on a leash and you're in full control... Look, you made me join jim_darwinism today... If you can control me, I'm sure you can control Satan - that guy's a pushover!

God is love - He gave us a world to live in that is suitable for us, and gave His Son so that we could be with Him (John 3:16, et.al.).
God created the world, as it clearly didn't just create itself.
The UN was convinced that Iraq had WMDs before the war began. People seem to forget that.
Atheists are not neccessarily immoral - they simply have no basis for morality, other than their own personal opinions of what is right and wrong, which means that they can never do anything wrong in their own eyes.
Satan didn't make jim_darwin do anything - jim just chooses to go along with Satan out of his own free will.

I only see two lies here. Well, I'm really not sure if Iraq has weapons of mass destruction or not...but I doubt it.
I'm very sure Satan didn't make jim_darwin do anything though.
Hmmm....maybe jim_darwin IS Satan...we really don't know, do we??????

The first 2 are not lies.
The possibility that an athiest is immoral depends on that particular athiest. Being an athiest does not make one immoral.
No one should judge, that is Jesus Christ's job.
Darwin was not "made" to do it, he just never finished his work which would have resulted in a belief in God.

I think the devil made me do it lie is the worse. It set us up so that we are out of control of ourselves. That we are mere mortals and incapable of doing something bad regardless of the intention. Some people are not good people. They do sedistic things. We have to be held responsible for our actions. We cannot blame this evil figure for controlling our decisions. The devil made me do it thing dates way back. Its the same with the salem witch trials. Can't have girls in the woods frolicing......THEY MUST DIE BECAUSE THEY ARE WITCHES!!!
The whole thing is just a big excuse. Probably invented by some high up society figure caught doing a no no way back in history.
The devil doesn't make you do bad things anymore than "god" makes you do good things.
I mean if you fall for the whole christian thing anyways......it is about which one you believe in or have faith in. It is then the strength of your faith and your willingness to follow that lifestyle that guides your decision making processes in life. It wasn't that one figure made you do it anymore than another.
*sigh*
I dunno....maybe the devil made me answer this question this way.
*shrug*

The first two aren't lies. I don't know about the third. The fourth is sometimes true, but then again, its also sometimes true of Christians. The fifth one...do what?

sometimes i think that all of them are lies. but i can't say they are true either. i don't believe in the last 3, but besides the first 2 have been always with me, sometimes i also doubt them.
