Lol yep there you go Nymph. ALL of them.
For any 'True Christians' that are reading this, scoffing at the OT references we atheists so conveniently like to bring up? Read your own Bibles.
NEW TESTAMENT Wrote:"Do not think that I have come to abolish the law or the prophets. I have come not to abolish but to fulfill. Amen, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest part or the smallest part of a letter will pass from the law, until all things have taken place." (Matthew 5:17 NAB)
"It is easier for Heaven and Earth to pass away than for the smallest part of the letter of the law to become invalid." (Luke 16:17 NAB)
Luke 12:51-52
51 "Do you suppose that I came to grant peace on earth? I tell you, no, but rather division." 52 "For from now on five members in one household will be divided, three against two and two against three"
Matthew 10:34-35
34 "Do not think that I came to bring peace on the earth; I did not come to bring peace, but a sword." 35 "For I came to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law."

I'm just surprised there aren't more victim blamers out there. Can't wait to hear what the Pope has to say about this one..
Quote:Pope promotes pastor to Bishop who said hurricane was God's punishment
Pope Benedict XVI has made another controversial appointment by elevating to the position of bishop an Austrian pastor who said was God's punishment for homosexuality in New Orleans .
I guess the ones actually in Texas are busy showing their true colors. There's good people.. and then theres garbage people. Denomination not needed.
Mind you I'm merely talking about the Christians who like to spout their condemnation about others, in public. I'm sure the people of Texas are rallying together no matter their beliefs.
According to this blog from the friendly atheist, the Usual Suspects are eerily silent on the matter. So yeah I guess we should have heard more by now or they're just late to the race, with Ann Coulter leading the pack!

If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!
Dead wrong. The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.
I say again: No exceptions. Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it. As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.
Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.
