But never mind. Welcome back, dude.
Quote:One thing that is never going to make any sense to me, never has and never will is this whole blood sacrifice thing.do you want it to make sense? (Warning it is easier to dislike something/someone when your confused about it.)
Quote:There is not any logic or rationality to it. We are talking about a supposed being who is infinite. All-powerful, all-knowing, all-everything.Ah, no. While God is all powerful, He nor the bible never once claimed He was "all everything." God describes Himself to be the "Great I am" and the "Alpha and Omega." Which means God is who He wants to be. Nothing More, Nothing less. Does it mean He can creat a rock so big He can not lift it? If, He wanted to then yes, if not than no. That's what real "all powerful-ness" looks like. (Meaning strong enough not to be gummed up in a second grade paradox.)
Quote:We, to him, would be as a paramecium is to us. No way, no how could anything that we ever do could mean jack to such a being.God has invested a lot into us (the whole of creation, and the plan of salvation) therefore your analogy is not valid, as 'we' do not devote continents, planets, solar systems to paramecium.
Quote:Sin is an empty concept. Always was. It was just a way for the priestly caste to keep the rabble in line.Only to those who do not understand it. Sin/the law is only there for one reason now. So that we may see a need to seek freedom from it.
Quote: Get the great unwashed all worried about what their eternity will be like and maybe they'll behave better. If I had not had this kind of crap pounded into me by those damned nuns I never would have ever believed any of it. Fortunately I got over it in time. The whole yarn is insane, truly.
You are aware that 'nuns' (nor the rest of that bunch) believes in biblical Christianity right? They believe the popes were all living Apstoles Indued with the power to change the bible (therefore can not believe in it as the popes have changed what it has said over the years.) creating a region of rules to control the "rabble." Biblical Christianity is the opposite of that.[/quote]
