engage in premarital sex etc. Even having relations with anyone who is not your original spouse is adultery. So if you divorced and remarried, every time you have relations with your second spouse, you are committing adultery. What do you think of that?

The Bible specifically says divorce and remarrying, or even marrying a divorced woman constitutes adultery. Are you going to ignore parts of the Bible you hypocrites?

Ahh the Fundies, what can one say. They proclaim themselves to perfect and above all others (don't bother denying it kids, you know you lord yourselves over everyone.) Their belief in their own superiority is beyond arrogance or hubris (not that they'll understand those words). They believe they can judge and condemn on a whim, demand others follows their ways and no other. They are so militant in their beliefs that once they are shown for the hypocrites they are, they just shrug and say the Lord will forgive me. They are the ultimate in human filth, right down there with the Taliban, Al-Quaida and Extremists of any religion. Evil is as Evil does and boy do the Fundies have a corner market on that. Oh sure, they don't blow up things, they just convince others to do that. They don't kill directly, they just feed intolerance and let the chips fall where they may. In the end, their existence is sad and pitiful, they know not God but a false God. The God they worship is the God of absolutes, a God that is unforgiving, a God that is to be feared. Well guess what? God is my friend, He loves me as I am, He knows I'll make mistakes but as a good parent He holds me close. Fundies don't get this. They are further from God than they know, for it is they who are the false prophets of today as are the Muslim extremists and others.
Note to Christians, I do not consider Fundementalists to be true Christians as they are not Christ Like in their ways. Christianity like many faiths has many positive aspects but like anything else, can be co-opted by radicals.

Straw Man Hasty Generalization Begging the Question Just because it is in the news doesn't mean that it happens all the time. If it were a very common occurrence the news would not report it. How many fundamental Christians are there? Millions. How many actually do something heinous? Only a handful. This recent slaying case is not yet resolved. Do not be too quick to judge.

As a Christian, I'd like to differ on one point. Divorce is not a sin. In some cases, divorce is necessary for the well-being of a family. You are correct in all of your other accusations.
By the way, fundamentalist Christians aren't the only ones sinning, buddy. Sin is terrible, but it affects all mankind. I think its terrible and so I ask God for forgiveness for my sins every day.

I'm curious as to why are you impersonating a Christian?
Anyway, as to your statements, no, actually, you're wrong. Many believers in the Bible as the inerrant Word of God who have studied the issue Biblically would disagree with you (such as John Owen, Jay Adams, John MacArthur, etc.) on the issue of divorce and remarriage and birth control. Heck, Christ Himself says divorce is allowable in the case of fornication. If you're really interested in what the Bible says on this topic as a whole (not just one or two select verses taken out of context), Jay Adams has an excellent short book on it entitled "Marriage, Divorce, and Remarriage in the Bible." It's at Amazon.com at http://www.amazon.com/Marriage-Divorce-Remarriage-Bible-Adams/dp/0310511119/sr=8-1/qid=1165600636/ref=sr_1_1/105-0945202-9406032?ie=UTF8&s=books

We can divorce for adultery and abandonment. Also we all fall short and our imperfections being brought to light is what allows for us to change. As to birth control show me where it says that. Doesn't matter anyway it is the revelation of God's Grace that saves us from us. He gives us what we need to change and it is a journey and not a destination.

WOW bro, let's use some grace here please. divorce was not God's plan but to say that remarrying is adultery is extreme. I agree fornication is wrong but so is gluttony, is that acceptable? Jesus died for our sins past present and future, so let's let God convict us about our sins pertaining to marriage and stop be so legalistic.

You misunderstand what Christians are.
We are saved, but not perfectly without sin.
We are "better off" because we belong to God. We are not "better".
We are seeking to be better each day. But since we are not yet completely mature.....that doesn't make us hypocrits, it makes us immature.
Do you also condemn all children because they don't act like adults yet?

Your wrong. Jesus teaches that one can divorce and remarry, unless you believe Fundies don't believe Jesus is their savior.

Sin is purely subjective.The biggest sin is not being a rational person.If you use FAITH as your phylosophy,you have abandoned reason.
