imagine it like this, tons of people seem to think you need to read the bible to get Christ. 2,000 years worth of work on one book. but the second coming is coming, so why wouldn't there be scribes to write it. just as the first, where Jesus will stay,where he will drive, what he will say,what he will do. someone will write about it,photograph it, video it. why should we look to a book to show us the old when we are headed to the knew. look forward my friends..
 
Ok, so you want to find out if it is true. First you will have to experience ego death....[clip]... pay a heavy debt in the hope I can some day again be free.
Didn't anyone tell you that what you experience after taking shrooms isn't actually real?

I've seen houseplants waving at me in a friendly fashion and green glass rods rotating above my stairwell...... but they weren't actually there ;)

And how would you deal with someones pushing of a hate filled religion?Tolerance I take it?
You're obviously talking about Muslims, not Christians. You don't see Christians hating people do you? And if you're talking about their beliefs being "hateful", you're wrong. NOT that I'm a Christian!! What someone believes should not bother you; it's a free country and you should have thicker skin. So I presume you're talking about Muslims; you know, the ones that kill hundreds of thousands of innocents every year and SWEAR they will kill every other human that does not believe exactly like them.

Here we go again with the 'No true Scotsman' Fallacy.....

"No true Christians are hateful" BLAH BLAH BLAH.... Witch burning? Crusades? Inquisition? Westboro Baptists?

Popes used to off each other over nothing... there were even Inscestuous Popes born from Fathers bedding their daughters.... Nothing bad about Christianity there! What about the 14th century when Christians blamed Jews for the black death, and burned a lot of them to death?

Pope John XXIII was a murdering, rapist that sodomized people - also the richest man in the world at the time.... was he a true Christian?

What about the Christian Knights that pillaged muslims and catapulted their heads into the towns and cities they were attacking?

What about Constantinople? Were they 'true Christians'?

What about the 30 year war between Protestants and Catholics that devastated most of central Europe? Were they 'True Christians'?

What about the bombing of Abortion Clinics?

This is just the tip of the iceberg, I could go on, and on, and on, and on.....

Full retard on that one potpimp..

Of course I see Christians hate people, every single day of my life I see that shit

What someone believes shouldn't bother you? Why, because they believe it? Again, full fuckin' retard. Beliefs are not immune to criticism.

Also, did you know TODDLERS are responsible for more American deaths than Muslim extremists?

That's a lot of coming!

what he will say,what he will do. someone will write about it,photograph it, video it. why should we look to a book to show us the old when we are headed to the knew.
I like the phrase with this spelling, that's clever (albeit unintentional)

look forward my friends..
If he can make it by July 4th, I'm having a huge, kick ass BBQ down at the lake. I got the beef and beer, he can bring all the wine, loaves and fish...

Pad, you shouldn't have brought that up. Now, Uncle Sam is gonna start rounding up the toddlers and putting them in camps. Though, I understand toddler camp isn't that bad...

The bible has similar murderous hatred. I think Islam is the way it is right now because its younger than Christianity, go five hundred years or so in the past and Christianity would be doing the same thing, if not worse.

You people think you know something but you don't. I won't even dignify your ignorance with corrections. But don't worry about me popping back in here because I won't. Personally I don't see why we even have a "religious" forum here. Any religion is welcome here except Christianity. Like I said, I'm NOT a Christian; I don't believe in "Jesus", but I do recognize a blatant double standard when I see one. Unsubscribing.

Well, it's unfortunate you feel that way, because tucking tail and running away from anything you don't like isn't a very good way of figuring things out.

If you've paid attention at all to this sub, you would have realized this issue has been addressed multiple times here before.

I think this is so tough for people who are not atheists in the western world to accept because they fail to see things from an atheistic perspective, they fail to link the points of history to the examples given and they fail to acknowledge any wrongdoing by Christianity, even when it's legitimate.

Any religion iswelcome here, as long as it doesn't actively promote, encourage, or support blatant racism, violence, stupidity or ignorance. Also unfortunately, Christianity fails to meet those requirements. Islam does too, but not many Muslims visit RIU that I'm aware of, when they do, they get run through the gauntlet of logic by the regulars just like Christianity frequently does.


The religion itself isn't the problem, it's the dumbasses who decide what is written in an ancient text holds more weight regarding human rights than what centuries of established scientific fact tell us.
