Christianity

[ace]

I posted earlier that Christianity states that we are the product of incest. Do you deny this claim? We are all the sons and daughters of whom?

Are you referring to the story of Noah?

You can quit calling me names and go dig for it yourself ...

I like this one ...

An Armenian denying Christ from his life. I HAVE SEEN IT ALL NOW.

Meh, I'm done.

[TomServo]

Is that surprising?

[ace]

Actually, very, you guys sound like the filth of our people.

The faithless atheists, in the absence of religion, have created their own faith in evolution.

I am a confirmed Episcopalian but I don't use my religion as a catalyst for hate. I've studied Zen Buddhism and realized that there are way less judgmental and hate spewing religions out in the world. I also don't practice in any organized religion as I feel it brings out some of the worst qualities in individuals. Especially towards homosexuals and/or other religions.

Ppl like you give Christianity a bad name imo. Always in judgment of others with paraphrases ready to fire off at a moments notice all the while continually missing the forest for the trees. You convince yourself that your way is the only way and everybody else who hasn't accepted Christ is somehow doomed for eternity.

You create rules for yourself to live by from loose paraphrases that you interpret in your own way and expect ppl to interpret in the same light, or lack of. Yet ppl like you are incapable of following the simple and plain laid out ten rules that have no need for interpretation at all. You pretend like you've mastered these ten and can move on to self created biblical laws that, from what you quote, could mean dozens of different things.

You claim to understand the Bible but probably don't understand who wrote which sections or why they wrote the different sections given the societal and political climate they lived in during the time it was written. You probably have no idea that the book you so highly praise and regard as complete truths is nothing more than a best seller that has gone through countless revisions, known and unknown.

You probably think that Mary Magdalene was a prostitute and the Sand Scrolls are utter propaganda. The organized Christian Church(es) you love so dearly has for centuries decided which ancient scriptures you get to read about and which ones you don't for fear of diminishing the capacity of the Christian Church. It's nothing more than propaganda revised by chauvinistic men in order to maintain control over ppl like you. "Baaaa..."

The only thing you can use to support your own arguments is that which is already the topic in question. You’re incapable of defending your beliefs and the validity of your highly revised book w/o utilizing it. It's a total crutch designed for ppl with too weak of a mind to speak for themselves.

Since you are also incapable of figuring out what I posed to you in the first question I'll repeat myself so that no grey area will exist ...

What makes you think your faith is stronger than a person of another religion?

You assumed 90% of the things said in that post.

Sure I didn't ...

Your all too transparent my friend ...

What makes you think your faith is stronger than a person of another religion?

1) The xxxish religion fails to recognize Jesus as the Messiah. How do we know he's the Messiah? Read on.

2) The Qu'Ran has changed over time, it contradicts itself multiple times. How? Evidence shows, in physically older Qu'Rans, poligamy was a sin. Coincidentally, around the time the crusades roll by and all the muslim men go off to fight and defend the holy land in the crusades, poligamy becomes ok. Why? There was a shortage of men and women needed to marry, so they just re-wrote the Qu'Ran and started copying that version accepting poligamy. If you study your xxxx, you'll see that some muslim tribes in India, Persia, and Egypt said that poligamy was a sin. However, the Turks (one of the last tribes to adopt islam) veiwed poligamy as accepted by God because they were taught the new re-written version.

Contradiction in Islam: It says Islams Prophets KNOW when they are prophets because God puts that in their head. Muhammed at first thought he was possesed by the devil and doubted himself being a prophet. It also says he reigned by the sword and Islam clearly has implyed, or encouraged murder of "non-believers." The Call to jihad was also snuk into the Qu'Ran during the crusades. Historically, their are Qu'Rans that date further back and dont have some verses that the new ones do. If any religion has been misleading and or changing, it is Islam.

3) If at the time of Jesus, if he was not who he said he was, when he died, and people said he was resurrected, why didn't his enemies just go to his grave, and be like "LOOK, THERE IS HIS BODY! HE HAS NOT BEEN RESURRECTED! HES A LIAR!" Were his original followers crazy (and sinful considering if they were lieing, they were going against their OWN religion) - they just decided to write up all this bullxxxx for no xxxxing reason? And devoted themselves to a life of spreading the truth because they just didnt want to admit they were wrong and a bunch of liars? Getting prosecuted, and protested against everywhere they went. Jesus had dozens of enemies that all wanted to see him die, exposing the "truth" that he was not really resurrected would've been easy.

4) Any "vagueness" in the bible and or "faults" of the Christian holy book are not due to the actual religion, but the wrong, or numerous translations. As it is impossible to translate from Hewbrew to English/All other languages PERFECTLY. On that note, Hewbrew scholars who have helped translate the bible even clearer have said that the Armenian translation is by far one of the most accurate ones.

5) Alot of prophecies have actually come true.

6) If you think the people who wrote the bible were liers, for a bunch of guys who didn't know the world was round and revolved around the sun, they wrote one hell of a bullxxxx story.

7) I personally feel the presence of Christ in my life. I can't explain that. Maybe you should try reaching out to him.
