how is anyone who believes wasting your life or bothering you? You say you have proof but offer none. By blasting someones faith is not proof its just senseless. No one ask you to believe. You know if you do not like something then why take up a your own time and bash it. People believing should not and does not harm you in anyway but you wish to harm others by stepping on what they believe. You say what we believe is a waste of time but that's not for you to call. the waste of time is bashing something you know nothing about. Does it make you feel proud or smart? do you make money by being rude to others we enjoy our lives just fine and although you see it is a myth or fairytale does not mean anything to how we see it. Your a non-believer fine live long and best of luck. I will pray for you not because you don't believe but because you have taking up a hate for a cause your not even part of.

May I ask, where is your evidence? In your question you state "I have proof its all fake" and yet in the rest of your argument there is not even a single shred of evidence. You could have least made a better effort with such a claim as that. And you know what there is so much historical and archaeological evidence that SUPPORTS the Bible rather than contradict it. You believe in the Big Bang, hmm, well I think someone else pointed the failings out in that argument. There is proof that there is a sentient being that created our universe. Did you know that there is part of our DNA that will not work without two different things? And if one of those things were not present the other would not work. Thus our DNA could not have evolved unless it mutated at the exact same speed and the exact same moment. Yes men wrote the Bible but also through man God wrote it. If you would care to point out the mistakes I would be happy to tell you that we have thousands of copies of the Bible. Many within years of when they were written. And yet we have copies of literary works that are older and we have fewer copies that we accept today as being unaltered. Old Testament and New Testament are parts of a whole, not separate and not reiterations of the other. Different versions have come out over the years so that as our culture and language changes we can better understand the Bible. Do you know how many versions there are of Shakespeare? Of people reiterating it so that we can understand the meaning behind his works. I hope you will take this to heart, and at least think about what many people stated.
If you have the time I would encourage you to read The Case for Christ by Lee Strobel. He is a renowned journalist that took the issue of Christ and explored. He wanted to prove once and for all that all the hubabaloo was a fake. Also, if you would like to hear more, feel free to go to http://www.the-living-well.org/sermons.html. If you go to the sermons for May 21 through July 08, each week deals with a different issue that is discussed in The Da Vinci Code. Such as the different versions, was it written by man, why should we trust it, the historical facts involved and more. Please look into these, even if it is too prove us wrong, these might help you understand a little more of what we believe as well. And if you don't agree, you will be that much more prepared the next time you talk to a Christian.

People with wings in heaven...I'm guessing you mean angels. Yes I do believe in angles.
Flowing with milk and honey is a metaphor.
Yes, there is a devil and he is at war with good.
Jesus was more than a man. Magically? No. Miraculously? Yes.
God knows everything in the world. So yes, He does know if you've been naughty or nice.
I'm guessing you mean that certain people in the church have to do with rape scandals. Sadly, some do. But they are not true believers if that is the case.
Yes, the Book of Life has names in it of those who are saved. And I believe my name is in it.
1. Yes there is a God. If you can't make something out of nothing, then something must have always been there.
2. No, God created everything.
3. Yes there is proof.
4. The Bible, yes was written by men, but it was through God.
5. Both the Old Testament and the New Testament are parts of the Bible. King James Version has more of "thou" kind of words. There are different versions, yes, but it doesn't change the meaning behind them.
Actually, I am enjoying my life. And I'm not wasting my life believing this, I believe I am saving it.

Your ignorance of science and current Bible translations is very evident. The word testament simply means covenant or contract. There was an old testament pointing to what will come with the new one. You also misspelled believe. However, the Big bang has excellent science criticisms. Also, the Bible hasn't changed it is all translated from the same Greek. In the 3 oldest manuscripts used to translate the NAS and other versions they are believed to be 99.9% accurate to the original manuscripts. They are harmonious and I would welcome you to challenge me in any theological/philosophical/scientific questions. s_wcrosby@pbu.edu
For one thing, when a star explodes and becomes a supernova it sucks all the light around it into it. Thus becoming what is commonly known as a black hole. If there was a chemical reaction (explosion) large enough to produce our universe as we understand it we would have no light. This is why the science community has let go of this "big bang" theory for life.
The science community is far from explaining creation. I'd check your facts before I'd feel comfortable speaking on such matters.

Now if all of the people that are dead set on stamping out religion would go after crime or drug abuse with the same zeal they might actually have some success. What is it with all of this bible bashing?
These Anti-Christians do not realize that Christians are not stamped from a mold, and though might attend or not attend the same church, do not always have exactly the same belief.
What they don't realize is that it is between each person and God to figure out what they believe. You get what you give, you expect the worst you get the worst.
Oh by the way Santa Claus is the mythical figure that does the naughty or nice thing.
Even if all of us Christian are wrong, who appointed you to tell all of US? Why do you worry about us wasting our time reading the bible and going to church?
So JUST ENJOY YOUR LIFE AND DONT WASTE YOUR LIFE TELL US WHAT TO BELIEVE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's pretty rude to just come out and say "Hey, you're wrong. Everything you say is wrong, and i have some crack-pot THEORIES about a giant bang that started everything and somehow dinosaurs turned into monkeys after dying out and then turned into us, so there. Take your faith and shove it." You know, what have Christians or Catholics or Protestants or Muslims or Islams or Jews or Mormons or any God-fearing person, regardless of religion, done to you to make you say we're all wrong. Why can't you non-believers let us live in our world, and let us believe in our "myths and fairy-tales". We have obliged, unwillingly, yes, but have accepted all of your theories about evolution crap and all that jazz, but we still believe what we choose to believe because it gives us hope that when we die, our lives will have served some purpose other than just another organism wasting this beautiful earth, the second greatest gift from God, the first being LIFE, and supposedly helping our species to "evolve" into something greater, even though in recorded history, there has been no significant evolutionary development in humans, except our amazing ability to become incredibly lazy, yell at each other all the time about what we think is right, fight massive world wars over it, so on and so on...... Why--why must you constantly chastize us for keeping our faith in a god just because someone you don't know, who could have no credidation in the field he/she says they're an expert in, says that this happened, thus proving all faith having, god loving, church going, happy people wrong and that they're all going to die from overheating and just rot in the ground!? Maybe we do enjoy our lives the way they are, believing in "fairy tales and myths".

Wow, satin's here buzz? Sweet. Were you planning to make some clothes or something?
As for a little lesson on evolution for all the comments I expect, just people evolved from other primates doesn't mean the other primates can't exist. If you want to go from the start, everything started with one-celled organisms and worked up from there. One-celled organisms still do exist, but creatures that evolved from them have developed new capabilities. Check out amphibians and lizards. Lizards developed the ability to stay away from water when they evolved from amphibians, but since this isn't entirely necessary to live, amphibians can still live happily by the water.
And yeah, I'm an atheist, but your arguments are crap. Actually, they're not even arguments, just points put out there with the label of proof.

How can you prove there is no God? I'm a Christian and I don't believe all those things you listed. Also, just so you know, there isn't a truth contest between the Old and New Testaments. I don't "believe in the Bible," well, I do, in the sense that I know it exists. Have you ever actually talked to a Christian?

I know you're just trolling, but I must say that the Bible has not been changed word for word.
There exist numerous translations of the Bible in many languages. Each time scholars go to write a new translation they use original Hebrew (old testiment) or Greek (new testiment) and attempt to translate it as close as possible to modern languages. The discovery of the dead sea scrolls merely confirmed that the original texts are accurate all the way back almost 2000 years to the time of Jesus himself. Who, by the way is also recorded in non-religious Roman government records and texts.

News flash: You have not provided us with any "proof." This is the same stuff that people try to tell us constantly. Do you understand that we do not believe what you have said? Stop wasting your points trying to " save" people from christianity. We are happy with what we believe. You are the one that needs help, based on your questions. You cannot even figure out whether you are a man or a woman.
