You all convinced me, I'm now an Atheist!!!

[Drich]

Something about living by what the Bible says, and not ignoring the parts you don't want to live by. You know, like you ignore Mosaic law because you don't want to live by it.

what are you talking about? the Mosaic law indroduces and define the rules for attonement and forgivness. Christianity's foundations are built on the mosic law for this very reason

What is "my criteria?"

Whatever is most convenient to you at the time.

which is what as you understand it?

If God wants to tell us stuff, why doesn't he just make an account? Why instead is he sending garbled contradictory messages through several theists? His idea of a joke I guess.

Christ did tell us what to do concerning the Law. He said the WHole law hangs on just two commandments: Love your Lord God with all of your being and love your neighbor as yourself. If you love God with all of your being, your worship will look differently than mine. To me it seems you are a method worshiper (or would be) you need a check list to follow in order to feel like you are worshiping correctly. I am not if I were to worship in this way I would quickly loose myself into the practices of worship much like the pharisees did. Therefore we would need two seperate different ways to worship.

Because of that command to Love God with all of your being one needs to have the freedom Christianity affords to be able to follow that command.

You are not an atheist, or whatever you believe yourself to be, you are you, you are, and everything else that you believe yourself to be is conditioning and programming, like it or not.

So just because I call myself an Atheist doesn't make me one if I don't follow the rules of Atheism?
