There is no such passage. You should at least bother to read the book you claim to follow.

Until then, you might not want to flaunt your ignorance so openly.

Let’s say a hereditary theocracy that managed to heather a following that through religious contrarianism wants to reinforce its fraudulent dominion over its unfortunate and gullible followers and perpetuated the domination to their descendants.    What do you suppose they would encourage their followers to believe:

A.   they will be distinct and ineffably superior to their neighbors to the end of time so long as they keep themselves apart by following the  strictures hoisted upon them by the theocracy

B.   they would not remain distinct for much longer and soon they will be just like their neighbors who think the theocrats are just a bunch of overreaching hucksters.

You could say that there has been fighting in that area for thousands of years and I'd kind of be OK with that.

Throwing in Israel and Palestine only shows your ignorance, and reinforces that you are not 'atheist'. Change your 'Religious Views', ya fraud.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Ok I don't know how long they've been fighting but the Bible does say in the end times they will fight and that there will be no peace in the middle east.

I know I'm kinda blowing your minds but how many prophecies have to come true for you to just admit it's not a coincidence? Maybe Christ is real.

So? The Bible also says bats are birds and pi=3. I'd be impressed if you could show me a biblical passage that detailed how to build a jet engine or an automobile. Vague "prophecies" that can be interpreted in any number of ways? Who gives a shit.

Do you believe in the word? Are you into Christ?

No, the correct question is "how many prophecies actually have come true?" Go ahead, list some. Be specific.

Maybe he existed, maybe he didn't. But he wasn't divine, and the religion founded in his name is not worth a shit.

Yeah I agree. It's totally bunk. But those prophecies are kinda mindblowing.
