You sound very unstable and easily led astray....apparently wrestling the Scriptures to your own destruction. "... They that are unlearned and unstable do wrestle, as they do other Scriptures, to their own destruction". (II Peter 3:16)

Depends on your definition of evil, which could get a huge philosophical debate going. Defining evil as selfishness and performing hurtful actions towards others, then I would disagree because there is no justification for evil.

1. Everyone falls short of the grace of God, but that doesn't mean you can go pushing old ladies down stair wells* because you can't live up to God's expectations.

2. Only God can judge human nature, because He's already beyond that state of evil.

3. Nobody's perfect is no more of a justification than everyone falling short. Same potato, different eye.

4. I don't believe we're born into sin, because we've had no choices before us to create sin. I could spout Bible scriptures here, but due to some conflict in contexts, it could easily be disputed by slinging another into the mix. The thought that God is a just God means that there is no way that he'd punish one person for another's actions. Thus dispelling the idea of being born into sin.

5. God loves you no matter what, just as your parents are supposed to. But when your parents seeing you doing bad things, they become disappointed and punish you. God, right there.

6. Everything happens for a reason, so do your best to cope. That doesn't give you license to be selfish, or break out into a blur of anti-semitic profanities.*

*I'm not saying that you do either of these things,I was merely using dramatic rhetoric to example a point.

In closing, all Christians are by their own definitions evil, but true evil is reveling in it.

Could the evil Atheists be the REAL Atheists?

1. There is no God = justification for doing evil

2. There is no afterlife = justification for doing evil

3. Since I don't believe in God I have no accountability for my actions = justification for doing evil

4. We are just products of chance evolution = justification for doing evil

5. There is no reason for anything that happens = justification for doing evil

Se... it works both ways... pretty lame argument if you ask me.

Yeap, the "evil" Christians are the real ones, because 9 times out of 10 their the only Christians that have actually studied and follow what the bible says. Those are the ones you've got to watch out for because they accept and believe in all the darker parts of the bible. They know their God condones and approves of a lot of nasty things like racism, rape, and slavery...they also know that according to the bible if they do cross the line they can always ask their God to forgive them, even if they are a serial killer/rapist, and they'll end up in Heaven.

The vast majority just go to church, listen to what their preacher tells them, and try to live a normal life. I know many Christians like to use the excuse "oh but they weren't a True Christian" so they can disassociate themselves from the evildoers.

i'm with you guy, and it is because i seen my percentage of discrimination because i'm an atheist. perhaps the evil christians at the prompt are not the person-friendly ones out, yet truly a scapegoat utilized through the christians. some christians would declare to be effective and polite, yet how can they at the same time as their very faith is the reason they're the way they're? they blame it on a thorough faction to take the nice and cozy temperature off themselves, yet if truth be told, they're each and each of the a similar way, because they have self belief interior of a similar god, interior of a similar e book, interior of a similar destiny, and interior of a similar philosophy.

I like this post. I have often wondered why it seems the majority of
the Christian faithed people are trying to get over on someone.
7. Confession=justification for doing evil.

This is a loaded question. (A very good question too)

Many christians live a life of evil and then ask for forgiveness after they've benefited from it, I've noticed.

Sin most of their lives, get old, get scared, turn to God.

Then there are the christians that do horrible things but think it's okay with God. Then there's the christians that contribute to evil but aren't aware of it and that's okay. wow...

Jesus saw this coming. lol

Personally, I don't think they're real christians because they're not living their lives modeled after Christ WWJD

None of the things you mentioned are JUSTIFICATIONS for doing evil. If you CHOOSE to do evil, you sin, period. An on-going pattern of choosing to sin means you really do not have a relation with God- you are just giving Him lip-service.

The things you mention are our safety net for those times we mess up- the reminder that God forgives sin, that sin happens sometimes and God will forgive us for it if we try to get back on the path of righteousness.

Many who call themselves Christians look only at the surface level of Biblical teachings and don't try to figure out what the stories mean metaphorically. "No no no, this verse means X and you're taking it out of context." Well, most of the people who say "No no no" are only taking it at face value, which is just as bad as taking it out of context.

Personally, I think that many who call themselves Christians (evil or otherwise) haven't got a clue what they're talking about. Hence why I no longer call myself a Christian.

Bright blessings.

None of your items is justification for doing evil. These things are told to us so that we will _not_ develop the idea that we are as God.

I have an interesting thought for you on "who's evil."

Notice: If you notice, the devil, as he's commonly pictured, walks on TWO LEGS rather than CRAWLING ON ALL FOURS. BUT - if you look at the face it definately is NOT a monkey or an ape. Hmmmm! What creature do you suppose that represents. He walks on two legs, has two opposable thumbs, has two arms rather than two extra legs.

You connect the dots.
