to a fault.
One can be a Christian and see the effect society has had on their religion, and it doesn't discredit their beliefs. Even Christians with a big C. Paganism/ animism/ basic beliefs influenced Christianity greatly.
I don't think that was the point being made though. Christianity can cross over with paganism, as it does with every other belief. Atheists often accept the golden rule for example.
2 Corinthians 6:14
Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
Isaiah 5:20
Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
You bought the lie fr0d0, just like most have. I understand perfectly why atheist hate "mainstream Christianity"
Our "worship" was supposed to be in spirit and faith but fuckups like you weren't happy with giving people true free will.
You use lies to support your lies, you use deceit to support all forms of evil as "righteous" and it's obvious to me and I'm sure a lot of people, when pressed with the facts about what is written, you're a blind sheeple.
Sorry for your heavy heart, but my God is a living God...

Looks like gibberish to me.
A true Christian is not concerned with whether they've prayed enough times that day, or if they have read enough scripture in one day, whether they are a true christian in anyone elses' eyes, or whether they've spoken the correct 'creed'. Catfish is saying (I believe) that true undefiled religion that glorifies god is pure unadulterated love. Defining it is not important to god, but to man.
There are two kinds of Christians (despite the 40k denominations). Ones like catfish, and ones like frodo. Personally if it came down to it, I'd put my life in the hands of catfish over frodo, any day.
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!
Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.
Dead wrong. The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.
Quote:Some people deserve hell.
I say again: No exceptions. Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it. As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.

MY point here is when you operate on tumor make sure you get rid of all of it otherwise it will grow bigger and more vicious than before.
You failed to read the bible I suppose.
You are speaking of men's deeds, not a religion's.
Here is something I believe most of us would agree upon...
James 1:27
Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.
.
That is preposterous religion is obviously there to influence the mans deeds How can you say such a ridiculous thought as you are speaking of mens deeds not a religions. And I!!! failed to read the bible????? If you are saying that those men that have been committing the deeds that I have previously described have THEY not failed to read the bible? If your argument is the bible is a holy scripture that ask of only good deeds and not of bad deeds. Have they not misinterpreted the information? OH what? Bible was written by stupid peasants and fishermen? oh that is right  indeed their knowledge of morals and and for that matter any other aspect of social life was zero.

Thank you and good night.
You are currently experiencing a lucky and very brief window of awareness, sandwiched in between two periods of timeless and utter nothingness. So why not make the most of it, and stop wasting your life away trying to convince other people that there is something else? The reality is obvious.

The golden rule is in virtually all religions and it's really the only form of practical morality you really need to know. You don't need hundreds of pages of commandments about how to treat your livestock and slaves.

The majority of atheists don't particularly hate Christianity they just don't think it's true. The same way you don't particularly hate Jains or Zoroastrians.

You misunderstand cat. And you deny the origins of your personal religion.
Atheists should hate mainstream Christianity. If they do that means we are doing it right.
If you mean they find Christians hypocritical, then that is real. Fisrtly, they lack understanding that being a Christian is an aim to be like Christ. There is no magic cure. People remain human.
Also people are indeed hypocrites.
"People like me"? lol. "Perfect free will"? Am I supposed to have a clue what you're talking about here? Do you know my position on that stuff? That I know the answer to.

Yeah you're right and everyone else is wrong. shame you're not open to discuss that.

Understandable point of view, seriously.
I care, because when it comes down to it: catfish upholds the true teachings of his god, the spirit that was intended by god if he did exist--untainted by man and his ridiculousness. There are two kinds of christians, practicing and pretending. Practicing christians are not harmful in any way. I care because most politicians in my country don't get the true spirit of their own religion, hence all the harmful effects athiests have discourse over like the religions' 'beliefs' overspilling into legislation.
