Why It Is Not Too Late To Repent And Turn To Christ

[Revelation777]

Always having been on the outside it seems mind-boggling to me that people are really unable to see the blatant dishonesty of creationism. Every single one of the prominent creation dope-pushers is a shameless liar and obviously so.

As Aron Ra has said many time, to paraphrase, that there comes a time in a creationists' education and life experience when they are faced with the question-- "Do you want to be a creationist or do you want to be honest?"

I suspect that those who remain creationists after that point of education and knowledge just really don't care about whether something is true or false. The doctrine must come first no matter what.

Actually - the 7 largest xtian sects - representing over 75% of the worlds xtians - accept that evolution happened - although they disagree on the origin of initial "life". It is a relatively few sects that require the absolute belief in the inerrancy of the bible - down to Adam and Eve - and it can be shown that few of those actually believe the creation stories of the bible anyway.

Religion knows that they cannot enforce beliefs that disagree with proven reality - and the end result of trying to do so is to alienate the next generation.

The problem is that religion was the center of the culture of many of the older people of the world - regardless of which religion or sub-religion they believed in. And it is only now that the older generation of complete believers is actually dying off. Studies have already shown that a majority of the young people do not believe in creation - and even in religion itself - but put on a front to sidestep family problems - knowing that eventually that problem will go away. And these young people have no intention of following religion once they have less family problems with it.

But for most who otherwise still believe in an afterlife and a god - even if their beliefs do not accept the whole of their religion - it is largely a belief that there must be something more than just our life here on earth. There has to be a "better" place to go to afterwards. And the priests of religion are only eager to take those people's money and say whatever is needed to keep the cash cow alive.

Still - religion is waning in the educated areas of the world. Studies have shown it is heading toward extinction in several European countries - plus Australia. The problem for religion is money. While religion is still spreading among the third world countries where belief in superstition is still rampant and education is still poor - the problem is that these countries cannot support the religions monetarily. While the Xtian religions have largely survived on Western and USA money - as the aging population of believers dwindles - there is no new source for money - and that is why there are so many closed churches. Add a shortage of clergy too.

Science and education - and reality - have worked to prove that religion is a thing of the past.

God will never be out of style.

Two weeks?

I wrote the asshole off on Day #1.

I still like you.

You certainly will need to use resources, Rev, but you have been advised that the resources available at those websites has been discredited. If you persist in using it, do not expect people to be impressed or swayed in any way whatsoever. I'm sure you have been recommended some reading on the subject. You should investigate it if you have any interest in being taken seriously, because to not do so would show that you are either too afraid, stupid or blinkered to read up on the subject.

Let's see how things go. I want to explore a variety of resources. If you are not interested in responding to the threads I understand.

Did you see it?

But all have sinned. Even before we sinned, it appears that Adam and Eve were enjoying their fellowship with the Creator.

Why such anger?

I find it interesting how atheists are quick to judge the Bible but few have read it objectively from cover to cover. Christian movies the same. If you really don't want to believe something, Jesus appearing before you may not convince you.

Hey Rev, its me Mothonis here to poke holes in you assertions

1.Many people including christians were disgusted at the film.

2.Sin is imaginary

3.Atheists read the bible objectivly and find it appalling.Its christians who are indoctrinated and have biased views.If Jesus appeared before me I would think i was hallucinateing.That film was just there to bash Atheists every character who wasn't a christian was considered extremely evil.

I am willing to pay for your tickets if you are willing to go see it.

But isn't that what we've come to expect from Rev? Not the mention a lot of other Xtians that come here.

I am sorry Darkhorse that you have low expectations of me. Yes, Katy Perry's song and video has illuminati occultic overtones.
