I remember when I was in high school and still religious, our church would annually put on this massive production of The Story of Jesus. People from out of state would drive over just to see it. Anywho, we all had parts, and at Jesus's crucifixion, we were encouraged to join the crowds in heckling Jesus in order to experience a different viewpoint.

Not a wonder atheists are so defensive.

Who cares?  I don't seek to use the government to deprive anyone of their rights or an education or commit hates crimes or abuse children or.................................... "because atheism told me to".

When the religious manage to keep their filthy god-peen in their pants I'll stop mentioning that their dick is hanging out, just like yours is hanging out all over these boards. The man who offers cover for that shit, by calling people meanies, no less..is only marginally better than the fucking rapist.

That's the reaction of someone with a religious lilt. If you were truly happy with your philosophy and standing in life, you wouldn't be roaming the religious topics to vent, you'd be discussing the pretty flowers of evolution and how they grow.

Wake up, boy.  You've been conned your whole life.

That's what you do in cyberspace isn't it?
And what have you been conned by?

Satan has incubated himself in the churches, but that's all a myth isn't it?

Given Christianity's historical tendency to invade cultures at swordpoint or gunpoint, and occasionally torture and kill village elders, I'd say it's a reasonable reaction.

When you say Christianity, do you mean Christians or the Antichrist system which poses as Christianity?

Where else would fictional characters be crucified?  Even whoever wrote your "Paul" bullshit knew that.

And certainly not by blithering idiots who go through their lives groveling to non-existent "gods."

Go fuck yourself.

It's effectively impossible to tell them apart, because there's no way to read someone's mind to determine his true motives and influences.

Especially not after he's killed you.

My stance on the matter is that whenever someone claims to be speaking for a god, or acting on behalf of one, one should immediately be wary and keep a safe distance.

There is no legitimate authority who can say real Christianity is or who a true Christian is. Interpretation is entirely subjective until Yahweh shows up. They're just as Christian as you, dude.

It's not like Jesus went out of his way to be deliberately obtuse and confusing, either.

Mark 4 (KJV)
11 And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:
12 That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them.



Um . . .

er . . .


uh . . .


I might have picked a better Bible verse there. Sorry.

Truer words have not been said on this thread.

In my estimation, it is not possible for the world to be without something which helps discern the truth, otherwise nothing would exist. In other words what is, is the truth.

What you may have left room to conclude that it's not possible to tell the difference between right and wrong.

But life demands specific rules for the mere existence of anything, let alone the qualities necessary for life to have any worth.
Death, dysfunction and suffering are the enemies of life - that makes it possible to judge what is right and wrong.

True Christianity has all its references to the Creator and his law, making all men equal.
False religions and false Christianity have replaced God with the rules and dictates of men.

It's that simple.

If you are an atheist, you automatically come under the dictates of men and society.

No that's perfect - the primary relation that every human being has is to the one who gives them life - which includes life as given by the parent.

If the parent fails, the human is still only to be subject to the Creator, and does not have to obey any earthly authority which contravenes the laws of life and freedom.

In the text above, the love of crime or sin, removes the right perception of the relationship between the Creator and the creature.
And Jesus was talking to people who had the truth spelled out to them as a nation, his words were not aimed at the uninformed.

Certainly not a dumb fuck like you. 

Keep it up.  I can shit on you and your fucking god all day.
