Top 10 Reasons Why Jesus is Not God

[fr0d0]

WHAT!?!

No, you can choose best. C seems to have chosen self torture. This is the opposite of Christianity, but apparently not in some remote back waters.

Would you care to expand on this point? In what way did my fiancee opt for self torture?

Hey bud hows it going.

C kept saying above how she chose to prevent herself from feeling good because she obviously didn't deserve it. "Others were more deserving in God's eyes" - WHAT?! How did she know that? Because her life was so bad, God was "obviously punishing her". She (the morons telling her what to think) perverted something good into something vile.

"that is why I turned my head the other way when I was wronged. that is why I forgave those who never apologized, that is why I didnt question my impoverishment. that is why I gave every cent I had to others: because I felt they were more deserving in gods eye"

There's nothing wrong with selfless charity. And there's nothing wrong with impoverishment. what is wrong is the pointless self degradation. Yes she had been brainwashed apparently her whole life so this is what she came to think of the world. I'm really glad that she's out of that, and can even dealt with it as much to maintain contact. Good for her.

@ missluckie26: I am so glad you got out of that nonsense and found real life. Way to go you! I hope you don't mind me being very happy for you.

The point of Christianity is to have a better life here and now. Not for fear of something remote.

Ah, which is why christian doctrine takes such pains to menace us all with the concept of hell, of course. And to place heaven up on this insurmountable pedestal. Yes. /sarcasm.

Well you're getting a bit Victorian on me there. Hell Fire was the fashion.

Yes you can better yourself. You would be doing a disservice to god if you could but didn't. Because god wants the best for you. Hence the parable of the coins... Using your gifts rather than sitting back and doing nothing.
To deny practical help in the form of medicine or medical assistance on the grounds of superstition of any form is anti god too. Those things are god given.

I do agree with you here. Luckie's my girl and I love her with all my heart, but she was fucking dumb when she made the choice to refuse treatment, and if I'd known her back then I would have said so to her face.

Now you're doing it!
