Atheists interpret bible verses

[Edwardo Piet]

Rocket went into admirable detail about the history of the KJV, but sometimes a simple list works too. 

that's the reason why you reject Christianity?

No.  I reject xtianity because I have memorized most of the KJV.  I reject xtianity because the deity xtians worship is an evil psychopath.  I reject xtianity because every premise for xtianity is illogical and absurd.  I can go on, but I really don't have to explain my beliefs to anyone.  You're no different than the hundreds of other loony preachers that descend upon this site - - you keep hammering us with quotes from an repulsive, evil book of fairy tales written by bronze-age goat herders, we tell you we've heard it all for decades (yawn) and you'll eventually go looking for other (hopefully less intelligent) people to harass.

you think its stupid and I think its the words of eternal life. the conversation is real and if you think its garbage then you shouldn't be offended. I take no offence of Muslims telling me ill go to hell if I don't convert to islam. read a KJV bible and you'll find out

Do you have an actual argument? Or is it just "it's true tho!"

And who said anything about being offended? We're just tired of self-righteous people like you thinking you can just take over our own community to preach to us, without any respect for the people you're trampling all over. If we're offended at anything, it's at your behavior, not the ridiculous stories that are causing you to misbehave.

the guy told me to f off
im not self-righteous. Im a wicked sinner who deserves hell but was saved by grace through Jesus Christ,
atheists are so angry over a message of love

[Edwardo Piet]

You weren't saved by grace through Jesus Christ. You just say you were - do you like talking to yourself here?

[sinnerdaniel94]

that's the reason why you reject Christianity?

No, this would be one of literally hundreds of reasons.

Now, with this new found knowledge of the book you live your entire life by, doesn't it make you question it?  At all?

ok just wondering
and no
I feel bad for anyone who needs solid evidence for everything in their lives.
like double checking a chair before sitting on it
or making sure their wife didn't poison their coffee
faith is exercised daily by everyone
I just choose to place my faith in Jesus
and people will crucify me for it I honestly jump for joy when people hate me for it because great is my reward in heaven

Reading comprehension is a good thing. Try it. I didn't tell you to fuck off because I was offended. I told you to fuck off because you seem to think that tossing out Bible verses to a bunch of atheists constitutes a conversation. Your mere assertion that any of it is true is insufficient. Your word on the subject (I really, really believe it) is worse than useless. If you want anyone here to believe that this collection of ancient writings is the "eternal word" of Yahweh, you first have to persuade us that Yahweh is more than a character in a book.

What you believe is irrelevant.

I don't hate you, I don't hate anybody.  I pity you.

Honestly, it's painfully sad.

I know I have eternal life not because of me but because of God
no I hate being here

Okay, well then maybe you need to talk to him, rather than making broad, blanket generalizations about atheists, hmm?

Sorry, the faux-humble act doesn't work in the face of your "the universe was created specifically for us, the architect of reality loves me personally and will make me happy forever," theology.

atheists are so angry over a message of love

Again, we're angry over your bad behavior, which in this case includes thinking you can speak for us, in service to a message that you can't demonstrate to be true and see fit to relabel as a "message of love," despite the fact that none of the things in it are particularly loving. You think I didn't see the other thread you made where you just had to point out how you think hell is a literal, real place where we'll go to suffer forever? That seem like a particularly loving thing to do, to you? What you're preaching is a message of servility that you're dishonestly attempting to tart up as something it's not, and then to make that worse you're desperate to take our refusal to just instantly buy what you're selling as anger at love, rather than at the mind-numbing, self-destroying hypocrisy you're spewing.

[Edwardo Piet]

@ Sinnerdaniel So you hate being here and you're putting yourself through it why? To save 'sinner's when everything that you believe is actually a lie? How sad. Depressing. I hope you don't stay this way your whole life and you see the 'light' of reality.
