3. GOD wants us to be holy, like him. There is a narrow path for good men(Jews, in this case) to follow.
4. Science is verifiable and true.
Scripture cannot always be taken literally, but still contains divine truth. The earth is as old as science says. GOD created man and all seeming ancestors. The flood is a part of the story of salvation indicative of the end.
5. God is not supportive of slavery. The was the nature of man in that day. God did not try to overwhelm man by dictating everything at once.
7. Remember that most of Jesus's miracles were also done by his disciples. This was how the church spread.
8. God shows his face to the faithful.
I hold that 90% of the church does not believe the truth of Jesus's life in their life.
9. This is to indicate how GOD is in everything around us.
10. The true faithful, who swear before GOD, do NOT divorce.
3: Uhh? This sounds like Hitlerish stuff. "You dont believe in me. So I'll kill you now." Is this a loving god?
4: Wha? You have to follow everything literally. In that time, it was supposed to be taken literally, so why is it different now? Soon enough, the WHOLE Bible will be "not to be taken literally"
5: It WAS a huge proponent. The people who wrote the bible thought that it was okay, so, so did God.
7: Probably cheap magic tricks to fool people into believing them, or a complete fabrication as always. -_-
8: MOST.
FRICKING.
PATHETIC.
EXCUSE.
EVER.
Seriously, that just fails. The most faithful are the delusional idiots.
I had an abnormal experience at a Buddhist shrine, but its a touchy thing. I don't want to elaborate, but my school R.E. teacher said that it was satan trying to trick me.
LOL.
FAIL.
See, this doesnt prove Buddha, and a hallucination won't prove your god.
9: Uhhh... What the frick? seriously. Everything is made out of much more complicated crap. Carbon, oxygen, glucose...
10: FRICK! IS THIS SO HARD TO GET ACROSS TO YOU!
I BLOODY HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE USE THE "omg, not troo christians" BAILOUT. Fine then. Its just as bad a s saying Joseph Stalin wasn't a true atheist.
How can you prove this bullcrud anyway?
A lot of idiots divorce, and christians are NOT FRICKING IMMUNE.
Plus, atheists have a lower divorce rate then christians. And this is percentage, so no more excuses for you. >=(
