Why did God divide the people of Babel?

Waiting for the "those aren't true Christians.." response.

Why:

People will always try to exist by subversive means rather than do what is right. Justice is unwelcome.

That's religion for you fr0d0....

True, frods, but religion gives them cover. They create a god who always tells them that what they do is "forgiven."

It's the model that corporate criminals want from the Justice Department.

The Christians whom read Michael Pearls book which uses bible scripture to justify this shit.

The three girls that I've met personally who threw their babies in the dumpster or something of the like were NOT junkies, they were young and scared of how their Christian Parents were going to act about the pregnancies they got after being taught the great Christian wisdom of abstinence before marriage.

God is my foot! Nobody can quite fuck up sufficiently as idiots with Jesus in their hearts.

OK you found three articles of so called christians that have killed and hurt their children, I can do the same about non christians and then what stalemate, there are many people of all kinds that are insane, my objection to what you said was that you blamed only christians when people of all kinds do this horrible act. Yes I'm going to say it, these people claim to be christians but according to scripture they are not and since this is a biblical thing the scriptures should be what defines a christian wouldn't you agree. I nor other true christians can help what others claim to be, christians like myself do not condone what people like this do, there's nothing we can do about them other than support their prosecution and we do.

The search string "God told me to kill " generated 92000 hits on google in a quarter of a second.

You see, G-C if 'god' tells an atheist anything we tell him to go fuck himself.

You nut jobs take him seriously!

Ziggurats were common in Mesopotamia and Iran

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ziggurat

and, to yokels from Judah who still had sheep shit caked in their toes, must have seemed to be a marvel. The fact that there were ruined Ziggurats observable would have required some explanation and the Babylonians already had one to pass along to their country bumpkin cousins.

Not surprisingly the activities of the priests in the ziggurats seem to mimic what we know of the activities of jewish "priests" in their temple:

a small number of guards could prevent non-priests from spying on the rituals at the shrine on top of the ziggurat, such as cooking of sacrificial food and burning of carcasses of sacrificial animals. Each ziggurat was part of a temple complex that included a courtyard, storage rooms, bathrooms, and living quarters,

Looks as if all these con men had the same racket.

[Epimethean]

They all want to lay claim to the same burning bag of shit. Sad, really, since sane people know it's not a present.

in a related note.

A woman from east London says her friend died after her Evangelical Christian pastor told her to stop taking HIV medication.

The woman, who wished to remain anonymous, said a pastor "prayed with her friend and told her to stop taking her medication".

"She passed away. It was a senseless loss," she added.

At least three people with HIV have died after they stopped taking life-saving antiretroviral drugs on the advice of their Evangelical Christian pastors, a BBC London investigation has found.

it seems some christians think of christ as just another witch doctor.
