If you're really a spektic then explain this:

Girls are just hard to talk to for me.

I think you should probably stick to porn.

[Silver]

Girls are just hard to talk to for me.

Consume an alcoholic beverage, then engage.

[Fake Messiah]

Girls are just hard to talk to for me.

Here, I have a girl for you. You two will have plenty to talk about. She is ahead of you in recognizing symbols from the Bible that talk about the end of the world.

Sorry I wasn't familiar with spamming.

Hey, asshole, we didn't gather here to make your preaching easier. Quit shitposting.

Explain this then: All the wars in the 20th century were done by atheist. Atheist have killed more people than any religion ever did when you count Stalin, Hitler and all the others.

This is factually incorrect. All the major leaders of WWI were Christians except the Japanese emperor. Stalin may have been an atheist, but Hitler certainly believed in a single god of some sort, as did Churchill and Roosevelt, who were both observant Christians. German soldiers had as a mandatory part of their uniform this belt-buckle:



"Gott mit uns" is German for "God's with us."

So yeah, you've not only got a lot to learn, you clearly have a lot to unlearn.

Also, I wonder who has killied more: atheists, or the Christian god? After all, their god has doomed everyone ever born to death for Eve's alleged sin. If dead bodies bother you so, maybe go to a Christian forum and start complaining about their murderous god.

Would we have charity without church?  Yes.  Very often churches -are- the charity case, with the us government subsidizing their lifestyles through tax breaks and providing them with billions of dollars in welfare.

[Astreja]

Do you believe in the word? Are you into Christ?

No, and no. I see the Bible as mythology and pseudohistory, and if there ever was a Jesus he died nearly 2000 years ago and remains dead to this day.

Atheist have killed more people than any religion ever did when you count Stalin, Hitler and all the others.

Stalin was a former seminary student who allowed "good" priests to continue working as long as they supported his regime.

Hitler was a Catholic and regularly alluded to God in his writings.  The RCC never excommunicated him.

And fuck you for implying that atheism = mass murderer.

[Rev. Rye]

Can you explain how it predicted there would never be peace in the mideast?

If you have a place that’s had a long and turbulent history, it’s safe to assume that it’s going to stay that turbulent.

It predicts more natural disasters than ever! That's happening right now.

Yeah, that’s kind of the point of apocalyptic literature, and it had been so for centuries before the Book of Revelation was written. That said, they probably weren’t aware that the Greenhouse Effect would start going amok after the Industrial Revolution, trapping more CO2 in the atmosphere, increasing the overall global temperature and creating a whole mess of attendant natural disasters in its wake.

It also says there will be rumors of war. Hello China and North Korea.

Of course there’s going to be rumors of war. War has been ubiquitous throughout human history (to the extent that some scholars have suggested only 8% of recorded history hasn’t had some war going on) so rumors about it will probably be inevitable.

Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains.

Again, war has been ubiquitous throughout human history. There’s been some war somewhere in the world for at least 92% of recorded history.

Also the Bible predicts one world order, well hello THE U.N. Isn't it amazing to see the bible playing out in real time?

The UN is basically an international forum for delegates of all nations. It has bugger-all in the way of actual power.

[jasonstackhouse]

ok but stalin said that the way to control people is to take away the morality and get them on drugs. Isn't that what the 60s did to us? DId it lead to socialism and Obama and Biden?

[Anomalocaris]

no, what stalin did was identical to what the christian church did to gain and stay in power,  which is to discredit preexisting sources of morality, destroy preexisting symbols of cultural attainment, to steal the credit for morality, to pretend to be the true source of morality, and then denigrate and murder those would contradict the pretense. 

if the 60s led to obama and biden, then the 60s led to far, far, far better things then had done by your diseased jesus or the pathological cult of christ, so you may want to pull your head out of the excrement pile of christianity, consider who you are speaking to,  and reevaluate your rhetorics to suit the circumstances.
