The Historical Jesus is real and He rose from the grave

[Revelation777]

This is very offensive.

Too fucking bad. Boo-hoo. We make fun of your myths because they are foolish, dangerous myths.

I would feel safer with someone who fears God than someone who feels they have no accountability to anyone. Just my opinion.

But the Jews, whose holy text the OT is, say Jesus didn't fulfill those prophecies.

Of course not, how could the old school allow an upstart company compete with them? That would be like Christians admitting that the Jesus in the Koran is the same guy. Lets not dwell in the fact that "El" and "Elohim" and "Yahweh" are names pulled out of polytheism.

Jews start Coke, and Christians start Pepsi and Muslims start RC Cola and all these morons forget that water was around long before.

Most Jews have been blinded because they have rejected the Messiah. Islam has minimized Jesus as just a prophet. Christians have accepted Jesus as He claimed to be - the Son of God.

Emphasis on the "claimed to be".

THere have been thousands who have made the same claim.

The movie "The Life of Brian", showing many prophets standing on the streets has been described as historically accurate.

To quote a Dire Straits song,

"Two men say they're Jesus,
One of them must be wrong!"

[JesusHChrist]

Rev - The other day my son said, "Mormonism is nothing but a bastardization of Christianity."

And I replied, "And Christianity is nothing but a bastardization of Judaism."

And Islam is a mishmash of Judaism and Christianity and probably pagan Arabic nonsense.

Who better than the people (the Jews), who wrote the shit down, who devoted lifetimes to studying that crap -- who better to decide if the Messiah criteria had been met?

Jesus was just a very naughty boy. Very naughty indeed.

See how it works Rev?

Respect is earned, not freely given fool. I have a certain modicum of respect I hold for people I've just met, and whether that stays, grows, or erodes is entirely up to the person.

Besides, your religion isn't above being mocked.

God will not be mocked. You can mock me all you want.

Ok, let me make this clear for you;

Fuck you, and especially fuck your concept of a god. You and your imaginary friends are not above being mocked.

Like so;

And what do you feel about all the atheists, who take the third option you haven't presented, and feel accountable to the people around them, to the future, and to their own moral standards?

I mean, surely you wouldn't be trying to be dishonest here and imply that all atheists fit into your second category! That would be a false dichotomy, not to mention a lie, since you definitely know now that there are standards of accountability that don't rely on god, and are actually superior to god's...

And fucking worthless....like the rest of your opinions.

God will not be mocked. You can mock me all you want.

Then what's the problem? Your god is beyond mockery and you've set yourself up as a target for mockery. You've renounced all title to complaints of offense.

That response always bothers me morso than most crap they claim.

When someone says "Don't pick on my god." I get the image of a midget standing spread eagle in front of the Terminator shouting "DON'T HIT MY GOD YOU MIGHT HURT HIM".

I have two huge problems with this childish knee jerk reaction.

1. Why would an all powerful being need a mortal to defend it? Are they claiming this all powerful god cant kick our ass on his own?

2. How petty is this god with all the death from famine, crime, war and disease for him to not only need a mortal to protect him, but make his primary rule of not being called names. If I were an all powerful god the last fucking thing I would worry about is someone calling me names.

[Minimalist]

God will not be mocked.

I mock your fucking god constantly. Big deal.

[Cyberman]

This god is the absolute most powerless entity imaginable - it can't even take offense for itself.
