Theists are Insecure

God never condones human sacrifice.

I've been saying that for a long time, Forsaken, and I totally agree. I made an account on a christian forum a few months ago, but it was mainly to observe. I made a short introduction thread, announcing that I was an atheist, but not there to challenge anyone's beliefs. I thought it would give me some good ideas for christian silliness to discuss here.

I was bored within minutes, and haven't been back since. Besides, on christian forums, if you ask a question, they'll ban you. Totally insecure behavior. Not the behavior of a group of people in possession of the truth.

I was sent a link to one by a nutty fundie when he was trying to make a point ( badly, as usual.) The discussions was typically bland but what got me was what passed for a "Kudos" system over there. It involved giving "blessings." They were fucking nauseating.

of course, use an athiestic source to prove the bible wrong. who needs to read the bible when we have people taking verses out of context and making a site on it. obviously all these scriptures are twisted and taken out of context. i encourage you to read the context and figure out the truth if you care for the truth ElDinero

"At that time the Spirit of the LORD came upon Jephthah, and he went throughout the land of Gilead and Manasseh, including Mizpah in Gilead, and led an army against the Ammonites. And Jephthah made a vow to the LORD. He said, "If you give me victory over the Ammonites, I will give to the LORD the first thing coming out of my house to greet me when I return in triumph. I will sacrifice it as a burnt offering."

Once again, put this into any context you like and then explain how wonderful your fucking god is.

You said God NEVER condones human sacrifice. Don't backpedal now kiddo, you made the statement, now deal with the fact that you're wrong.

Exactly my experience. I've rarely been bored to numbness so quickly.

if we don't protect ourselves, we put ourselves in danger. so just b/c God protects us doesn't mean we should not also protect ourselves.

So why trust god then if he requires you to save/protect yourself? If one must count on one's self and nobody else, why have faith in him at all in this life or the next? You have a useless God.

i suppose you're right. my apoligies welsh cake

You can make amends by taking the time to care about your spelling for starters. Its atrocious considering most Internet browsers such as Google Chrome spell-check everything for you.

don't be literal to the point of stupidy, and God never condones human sacrifice.

You were the one being literal-minded about God's omnipresence, and WHAT does human sacrifice have anything to do with every first-born son in Egypt being murdered by a monstrous deity who demands human service and sacrifice anyway?

Ezekiel 20:26 I let them become defiled through their gifts--the sacrifice of every firstborn --that I might fill them with horror so they would know that I am the LORD.

If you're going to worship a monster god, at least have the decency to admit its an evil malevolent being you hold in adoration.

i'm not wrong he doesn't. the first thing on that site is abraham and his son isaac which in fact he does not sacrifice. God stops him and provides a ram. it's misrepresented along with anything else on that site.

God stops him and provides a ram.

So your god is a fucking practical joker? Some god.
