When you decide to have an intelligent conversation instead of trying to impress the atheist here you might get a response to your post. I've heard all those childish quotes before so when you grow up and start acting like you have some type of intelligence above that of a six year old will talk.

You deny the fact that basically every LITERAL representation of "Gawd" in the bible has made up bullshit, you also most likely deny the mountains of scientific evidence disproving that the world is 6,000 years old, the fact the great flood never happened, and so much more. Also, you most likely deny the mountains of evidence proving evolution. If you believe a flying bearded omniscient tyrant in the sky who created EVERYTHING, and is both himself, and his own son, and that he both loves you like no one else, but would send you to burn in hell forever for not believing in him enough at the same time? You're in denial, no rational person would believe all that ridiculous bullshit. You're the childish one here, basing your life on fairytales.

Same old junk I've heard a hundred times before. You got so much wrong in your statement about Christianity it's not even funny. Until you learn what Christians believe you need to stay out of the conversations, you waste time implying nonsense.By the way evolution has no proof at all, it in itself is a delusion and it seems you've bought into it.

GC

So you admit that stuff in the bible is junk? Have you even read the bible? Because everything I've stated earlier is basically what is written/implied in the bible, and/or accepted by the majority of Christians. And according to your own logic, you should stay out of this conversation, as you don't know what Christians believe. You just cherry-pick the parts that you think you could justify, and claim all the other nonsense "isn't really Christian" we've all heard that excuse.
I got nothing wrong in my statement about Christianity, your personal preferences of cherry picking you bible does not excuse your bible of the bullshit that according to the bible itself, YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BELIEVE. Tell me exactly how I was implying nonsense? Tell me what "Actual Christians" believe. Don't fucking pull a straw-man on me, Evolution has tons of evidence, anyone who denies so much evidence is in denial. Fossil records prove evolution, there is no way around it, and don't pull that "missing link" bs on me, humans are constantly evolving, so it is impossible to fill every "missing link", because that would basically require a example of a fossil for every year in the past 5 million fucking years or so, and that's nearly impossible. if you want to learn about evolution, go to a secular, scientific website(s), and go read some books.

I've read the Bible more than you've ever seen one and I'm sure that wouldn't take much reading. However I do not just read the Bible I study it with the help of God who reveals His truths from it to me. I know the Bible is true, from the first word to the last. I do not cherry pick the scriptures I try to tie all subjects together from all the parts of the Bible. Cherry picking is for those who are not smart enough to argue against the scriptures, that would be you lad.

You have everything wrong, all you're doing is parroting the things the big atheist say, you have to there's nothing new to say, I've heard it all it gets tiring listening to the same old junk. There are a few here that do have good discussions with me and I enjoy having conversations with them, that wouldn't be you yet. The language you use shows you have little control over you mouth and mind, it shows me you can't put up a good argument, remember running off at the mouth shows you're impolite, immature and not capable of carrying on intelligent conversation.

The fossil record shows nothing of evolution, there are fossils found buried deeper than the fossils of animals supposedly older. There are many fossils that are in the wrong layers, fossils of animals that were suppose to be extinct millions of years before the layers they were found in were laid down. There are fossilized trees that are standing vertical through millions of years of sediment we know that couldn't possibly be, so the dating of the sediment has to be wrong. The tree's not lying it's there plain as day. Learn about evolution, why, it's nonsense a waste of time. Unless you know someone who has lived the past 5 million years that can testify to human evolution you got nothing, no proof nothing.
Okay to the rest of you guys I'm not carrying on a discussion about evolution with anyone, I know where you stand and you know I do not accept anything about it, so I'm done that's not what this threads about.

So there you go. As you call your religion peace inspiring you call people of the other religions as devil worshipers and that doesn't leave much sympathy toward them and you probably think of them as not much worthy of peace since they worship the devil.
Has it ever occurred to you that you might also be deluded? That Christianity’s effort substantially is not different from all the other religions? That is it just one more pyramid reaching for a heaven we can’t see? Don't you think you were raised to believe and have never known anything else?

(February 10, 2017 at 3:10 am)Godschild Wrote: Neither of those things have biblical support of any kind, the Bible is our guide to spiritual living, not getting wealthy or making ourselves poor, those are physical desires.
Don't you think this is simply your views on the Bible? You know Bible is pretty contradictive? You tell me I don't know the Bible and yet you yourself have a generalized understanding of the moderate version of god, because there are in fact a handful of biblical passages that indicate monetary greed is a virtue.

Here are some passages from the Bible, to whom you claim is against being greedy and having lots of money:

Proverbs (14:20)—"The poor are disliked even by their neighbors, but the rich have many friends."

Proverbs (17:8)—"A bribe is a charm to the one who gives it; wherever he turns, he succeeds."

Ecclesiastes (10:19)—"A feast is made for laughter and wine makes life merry, but money is the answer for everything."

So what gets GC? Did you not know of these passages or do you simply pretend they don't exist?
We have priests and bishops, like Catholics (whom you say are on the right way) among others that carry golden and bejeweled crosiers and wear silken robes, swinging censers of solid gold and living in manors, preaching in churches whose estimated worth is in that of the hundreds of millions of dollars and clothes and money and they got that from reading Bible.

When pastor Jeremiah Cummings was asked about his money and wealth he simply said "when Jesus was born, they brought him gold. They brought him gold. He was not poor. He wore fine linen." So you see to some people Bible does say to amass large amounts of money.

You see it as a personal choice but they see it as the only way to serve Jesus or they'll go to hell, so for them it's not a personal choice.

(February 10, 2017 at 3:10 am)Godschild Wrote: I can tell you this no one denomination has it all right and if you find one that believes so and teaches so they are most likely a cult.

So you are calling Catholics a cult? They do believe and teaches they are right and all others are cults.
But you're right in one thing the world’s Christians can't even agree on precisely who Jesus is, what he wants them to do, how they are supposed to worship him, and how to get to heaven.

(February 10, 2017 at 3:10 am)Godschild Wrote: the questions you have been asking are basic things most young Christians could answer.

And yet you can't.  For instance when I asked you why would a god need to rely on such a disgusting and primitive act like killing his son (himself) to forgive us and save us from his judgment because we are all guilty of a crime we did not commit. (Adam tasted the fruit not me and you) you said nothing.

That is all fucking bullshit, the fossil records SHOWS how species evolved over time, our genetic connection with other primates PROVE we share a common ancestor. Know why some are in the wrong layers? OUTLIERS, in some circumstances, some fossils just happen to end up deeper. And even if your statement were true, it would not fucking invalidate evolution, at most, it would question if SOME species existed at a different point in time. You got no proof for any of your fucking beliefs, and there is mountains of evidence for evolution, you just deny to accept it, we are still fucking evolving, we've even be able to see fucking evolution in species in controlled environments, you just deny it. AND WITH YOUR LOGIC, YOUR BIBLE IS FALSE UNLESS YOU KNOW SOMEONE WHO'S LIVED IN THE PAST "6000 years" GUESS WHAT? YOUR IMAGINARY FRIEND DOESN"T COUNT!!!

Now you are dictating what I can use for evidence while you claim the right to use what ever junk you want, actually you've shown no evidence you're just running off at the mouth.

There is plenty of proof for evolution, heck scientists are demonstrating evolution, by putting animals in controlled environments. Just search for it.
Grow up you child, you deny scientific fact as ridiculous, and yet you have an imaginary friend that both loves and will murder you for the smallest mistake? You fucking grow up.
I stand by my previous statement, and as I've said, inaccuracies in the evolutionary timeline does not invalidate all of the evidence supporting evolution you imbecile, this is just another case of a Christian being extremely skeptical, to the point of denial about hard evidence, and yet, doesn't question a thing from a book of fairytales, and anecdotal bs. Evolution has mountains of evidence, you're buy bull is junk. If you want evidence of evolution, go to a non biased secular scientific website(s)/books. I know for a fact that when I provide evidence, you're just going to deny it, so I'm too lazy to educate you on evolution. When I say your bible is junk, I say oit because your buy bull has NO FUCKING evidence, there is no way around it. ALSO, DOGS BASICALLY PROVE EVOLUTION OCCURS

I don't know, GC. Unless your trust in the holy scriptures is grounded in a strictly literal interpretation, the evolution debate isn't really that important. I don't see any problem with natural selection.

RE: What makes your faith true?
It's something that makes god unnecessary. I'd imagine that you, of all people, would be able to see the problem with that..being a person who thinks that nothing, literally nothing, is possible or coherent without your god?  

As soon as you make -any- "well, god is necessary for natural selection because of dependencies a b or c...." you are no longer talking about natural selection, but natural selection™. GC cuts all that bullshit out, and just says "Nuh-uh". I don't give hard-core cretinists credit for much...but at least they're not mincing words or the foundational underpinnings of their faith.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
