A question about original sin.
RE: A question about original sin.
You were asking questions, I thought you were just suffering Logorrhoea. You'll have to ask questions that make more sense. I can't tease the meaning out of your posts, I'm exhausted teasing your holy book for the love and beauty you keep claiming is there to begin with.
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!

You clearly want me to conform to your view of atheists. However, atheism does not proselytize about it's beliefs, it doesn't have to because they are well grounded in reality and available to all. You make yourself a slave to a fantasy about a dead Jewish man, I have no inclination nor I suspect hope of changing your views. Instead I will point out, when in my view you are wrong, give you facts and allow you to draw your own conclusions. I do not care about your views on xtianity like I don't care about your views on ghosts, astrology, crystal healing. They are all groundless.

YOu just have to look a little harder.

Ezekiel 23

Quote:46 "This is what the Sovereign LORD says: Bring a mob against them and give them over to terror and plunder. 47 The mob will stone them and cut them down with their swords; they will kill their sons and daughters and burn down their houses. 48 "So I will put an end to lewdness in the land, that all women may take warning and not imitate you. 49 You will suffer the penalty for your lewdness and bear the consequences of your sins of idolatry. Then you will know that I am the Sovereign LORD."


How much more fucking love and beauty could you want?

Amen brother! Sign me up for the sweet sweet love of Jesus!

It's always good to have a god who's willing to kill other people's children!



Curiously, turns out the Hebrew motto is the exact same as the American motto: "Our god's going to kick your ass!!"

So if i conform to all your knowledge, which is supported, where would any difference arise, if there are any at all?

No i just thought the bolding of that specific quote, right before the initial context, was a little ignorant. I couldn't help myself, they're easy posts.Tongue
