A question about original sin.

[Cinjin]

I believe it to be very true. I find it very important as to be considered more. I find that what Jesus said is different than what anyone has ever said. I have found patterns in Confucius, Shakespeare, Ben. Franklin, Buddha, i found that there teachings or ideas are that of just intellectual men and i have often come up with their very concepts on my own. I find the religion to be set on a promise and thus a hope. I am also to share this belief i have with others because it is good, "I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves." Mat10:16 I also find that Bible prophesy is very interesting and should be taken mention, with also the prophesy that has come true already. I think the good it teaches is excellent influence of how i should lead my life. I find it to be the most true and peculiar of all the other religions. I truly believe faith is given to us by God and we just have to accept it .

Now if i may, why must it be proven it is a belief?

If your "truth" is nothing more than a belief, then you really have no standing to claim that it is "the one truth". You don't know that - you have no way to know that. Belief is not equal to knowledge.

Believe whatever you want, I don't care. When you step over the line and profess your belief is THE ONE TRUTH, be prepared to get called on your bullshit and defend it - or STFU and GTFO. To do otherwise is intellectually dishonest.

What if say i believe it to be the one truth with the assurance of an old book, and i share this belief with you. The thing you want is to see God and then to be like ok now i get it but i find that very fake and selfish. We are arguing over belief and what you tell me of what you believe is just well informed speculation about grand coincidence that i find not true because it is not truth. My belief credits it as the one truth your just angry cause your on the outside. There all claims and as mush as know one wants to admit what we believe has to be the one truth or why believe, the thing is, it is the belief that is important not the claim we all claim to or are to scared to proclaim to for the one truth is irrelevant because we do not know it.

for christs sake ... Grammar 101!!

You still seemed to have missed the point there ROD. Everyone does expect you to believe that your silly religion is the only way to go ... most people do. It's the arrogance of telling everyone else on earth that you know it's the only acceptable religion which makes you and the brothers-in-christ so damn annoying. You haven't met Jesus, you don't personally know God. Your "direct line" to him is one way, and every devout dipshit on this planet of any religion has a really old book or manuscript to follow. You're not special. Your religion is not unique. You don't hold the moral high ground, and your god is every bit as blood thirsty as allah or any other "savage" religion. Worship what you want, but don't try to bull shit us about how Christianity has an ounce more legitimacy than any other stupid belief system.
