And you say that like it's a bad thing! Big Grin
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

Fuck him and whoever wrote about him. I decided I wouldn't wanna worship him even he was real. Thank god he's not. Wink

This post brings tears to my eyes, its so true.

What kind of loving God punishes his 'children' for eternity, without the possibility of reform? Or punishes trivial lifestyle choices such as homosexuality or premarital sex?

What kind of loving God commands his chosen people to commit genocide? To kill women and children? To engage in war with support from his angels?

It's a good job this isn't the God worshiped by most religions.

Not too bright are you JLY...this is EXACTLY the god worshipped by EVERY Abrahamic religion on the planet today... don't care what "flavour" you want to make your fairy story is false and is killing the people it is supposed to help.

Firstly this is not the God worshiped by 'every' Abrahamic religion. Secondly this is not the God worshiped in Hinduism, Sikhism, Buddhism, Zoroastrianism, Shinto, Paganism, Wicca, Roman and Greek Pantheism, various tribal religions etc etc etc.

Religions tracing their common origin to Abraham? Judaism, Christianity, Islam?

Maybe you don't know what it it, you've certainly missed the point of my post.

Are you serious??? I can pull up verses that show the god of the bible does everyone of those things you just mentioned. But I won't because you probably would ignore them. Do you believe in the god of the bible? Or have you created your own happy nice god?
If I die and god is real, im so screwed.

Going from believing in no gods, to believing the bible, that is one big fucking trip, atheism to deism is big, but adding Christianity is massive. Opening your mind. More like losing you mind.
