Christianity is poison, because it preaches weakness and torment as the path of truth. It destroys a person's mind and does not allow him to live his own full life.
Why only Christianity? Every religion is a means of enslavement of the people. All the activities are intended to live at the expense of believers. Religion is more of a vampire than poison. It is not profitable to kill the victim. It is advantageous for it to parasitize.

Christianity is the only religion that offers eternal life to all who believe it. Jesus died on the cross, and arose on the third day, to remove sinfulness from people. The only reason people die temporarily, is to remove their sinful thinking from themselves. All people will arise from the dead in the resurrection on the last day.

Cool

Regardless of religion after death, people are not resurrected like a zombie, just their soul is separated from the physical body and sent to the world of the dead.

People will not be resurrected as zombies. They will have all their thinking ability at the resurrection.

Cool

And they would be spending their days singing praises to the lawd? Is this North Korea?

And they will feel no pain for their loved one who are not with them since there will be only joy up there? Soma tablets anyone?

God took the innocent child home to be with Him in glory and joy. Why? Because Pharaoh and Moloch would have turned the innocent child into a guilty child, by convincing it that there is no God.

Cool

And how do you know this?

Did your god whisper his thoughts to you during your sleep? Or is this simply another assumption of yours?

I know it because I know from scientific proof that God exists.

In addition, science proves that the Bible is an impossible book. This means that God directed it to exist.

Since god direct the Bible to exist, It is His Word.

The above I know. The faith part is that God will fulfill the details just as He said in the Bible.

Once you understand this, come back and ask me again how I know that the child was innocent, and how Pharaoh and Moloch would have turned the innocent child into a guilty child, thereby causing his damnation, and I might explain it to you.

Cool

Puddleduck as I have told you before, Lord of the Rings is a better book to read.

Your bible has no more truth in it than the book I recommend.

You are always making claims about your god being real..... but you show no proof only assumptions.

Keep trying my furry little friend.

Groveling before God - What does it do? Non-resistance to evil, gentleness, poverty - these are your life goals? This is beneficial to make you powerless and not able to fight for your values? And what preaches Christ: good or evil? When the Christian pop smoothly and quietly sings: “all the will of God, all power is from God, God is patient and told us, we are all sinners, we are all little in God's hands,” it's not a quiet song. This corpse poison for the soul and destructive to the human mind, this programming implicitly the psycho slave.

Christianity:
- Study God's Law so that you can be a better person, and so that life will work out better for you;
- Study God's Gospel so that you can go to Heaven to live in Joy with God, and your family who have gone there ahead of you.

Cool

So basically the reason you believe in this nonsense is because you don't want to die.

I would enjoy answering your question. But I can't. Why can't I? Your question doesn't refer to anything. Can't answer a nonsensical question.

Cool

It was not a question.  It was a statement.  You believe in the Bible mumbo jumbo because you hope to live after you die.

That is retarded.  When you die, you fucking die.  There will be no hell, heaven or whatever else you dream up.  You decompose.
Game over.


Wow! You call the Bible mumbo jumbo, yet you can go out and read it in many languages so that you can see for yourself that it is logical. Yet you believe science theories that have a lot of mathematical mumbo jumbo, just because some science joker tells you that it is the truth.

You are about as impractical and illogical as they come.

The Bible is the best record of reality that we have.

People in Heaven will recognize their loved ones from on earth, probably as special loved ones in Heaven. People will also recognize clearly the great goodness God has given them, and will willingly praise Him for His greatness throughout eternity.

How great is God? The reason for eternity is so that we, His children, can grow up to become like our Parent. God is so great that it will take all eternity to do this. God is so great that, if eternity and infinity disappeared, it wouldn't affect God, personally.

In heaven, if all people sin? I don't know a single person who does not commit bad deeds. Of course you can lie to everyone, but if your God existed, he would cheat and it was impossible to heaven no one would get.

You do not confuse? I was the first time I hear from you that the Bible says that the need to kill gays. And about Saturday haven't heard anything. Christians have a day off on Sundays. A Saturday off from the Jews.

I guess you don't read your Bible.

Exodus 31:14-15 New International Version (NIV)

14 “‘Observe the Sabbath, because it is holy to you. Anyone who desecrates it is to be put to death; those who do any work on that day must be cut off from their people. 15 For six days work is to be done, but the seventh day is a day of sabbath rest, holy to the Lord. Whoever does any work on the Sabbath day is to be put to death.


Leviticus 20:13 King James Version (KJV)

13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

It is the old Testament. He probably became the basis for the writing of the Talmud, or Vice versa. I really don't understand it. On Saturdays, the Jewish Sabbath. Christians go to Church on Sundays.

Exodus 31:14 (JPS) reads, "Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you: every one that defileth it shall surely be put to death; for whosoever doeth any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people."

The Bible is full of statements such as that in Exodus 31:14. It is logical to interpret these as warning about the natural consequence of sin. Death in this context is not a call for individuals who commit these sins to be killed by their fellow men, but a warning that these sins lead eventually to self destruction and extinction aka death.

Aren't sabbath breakers supposed to be stoned? Why don't you enforce that?

Quote
If a law has no penalty, it has no force. but it does not follow that because we do not believe in stoning people therefore we believe there will be no punishment for those who violate the Sabbath or any other part of the law of God.

The only difference between the ancient Jewish order of things and ours today is as regards the time of punishment and the executor of the punishment. When God was the direct ruler, He saw fit to have an immediate punishment inflicted. Now the evil-doer must look forward to the last great day of judgment . (See Heb. 10:26-29)

Therefore let not the Sabbath breaker feel at ease in his mind simply because God has not suddenly brought sudden judgment upon him for his violation of the fourth precept of the decalogue, which declares that the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God, Creator of heaven and earth.

The story is told of a certain godless man who found special delight in flaunting his disobedience of the Sabbath command . He lived in a locality where the other farmers near him where devout Sabbath keepers. When October came and he harvested his crop, he found that he had even more in his barn than his neighbors.

Meeting the Sabbath keeping minister on the street one day, he gloatingly mentioned this fact. The minister's only reply was: "God does not always make a full settlement in October." No better answer could have been given.

The faithful Sabbath keeper awaits the day of final judgment to receive his full reward for obedience to God, the Creator of the whole earth. And likewise, the Sabbath violator must await that last great day of accounting in order to receive the final reward for his failure to obey the explicit command of God. The violation of the law of god is sin, the scriptures inform us (1 John 3:4), and the wages of sin is death (rom. 6:23). is that not sufficient penalty?

You twisting your God's words.  He said to kill them.  If you don't do it, you are not following your God's commandments.  You'll burn in hell as a result.

The only question remains if you are smart enough to figure out that it is wrong to kill someone because they are gay, how come you believe in the rest of this nonsense.  The Bible is full of nonsense.
Moral code from Stone Age, why would anyone want to even read this shit is beyond me.


God didn't tell me to kill anyone. I have been through God's Word multiple times, and neither my name, nor my "BADecker" handle are in there, even once. Check it out for yourself? "BADecker" isn't in there.

The question is, are you smart enough to figure out that the Old Testament directives were for the Ancient Israel Nation. Certainly the moral requirements are for us, because we have bodies and lives. But the national directives are for that nation, not our nation.

How long will it take you to understand that the whole Bible is written for that salvation of people? But by your unwillingness to understand, you are quenching the little bit of faith fire you have. Your salvation is being destroyed, and that by you doing it to yourself.

Where is the Bible for the modern world?  Where the fuck is it?  Where is the Bible that talks about the ethical dilemmas we face today?

Where is the Bible that would talk about transgender surgeries, human cloning, genetic therapies, stem cell research, space exploration and bringing alien life to Earth etc?
 
Where is the Bible that would talk about crypto currencies?

You read some ancient, irrelevant book and think you stand on a higher moral ground?  You are as fucked up as the Bronze Age people were.  Follow the Bible I dare you, so that we can lock you guys up and throw away the key.


Truth does not change as we grow in knowledge though our understanding of it may broaden to reveal previously unrecognized depths.

Christianity Gave Rise To Modern Science
http://www.irishcatholic.ie/article/christianity-gave-rise-modern-science
Quote from: William Reville

Modern science arose in Christian Europe in the 17th Century, not in China which had developed a sophisticated culture long before Europe, or in classical Greece. Many people credit Christianity with providing the missing ingredients that gave rise to modern science.

The way Christians think about creation has four significant consequences. First, Christians believe in a rational God who created an orderly world. Second, the world is worthy of study because it is God’s creation. Third, in order to understand God’s handiwork it is necessary to examine the world. Fourth, the universe is not itself divine so it is not irreverent to investigate it. Together these four features provided the intellectual setting necessary to spark off modern science.

Christians believe that the individual is made in the image of God and is therefore endowed with intrinsic value and bears individual responsibilities. This gave rise, for example, to opposition to slavery. The Church banned slavery between Christians and ended slavery in Europe by the end of the 11th Century.

The Christian image of the individual also sparked concern for individual property rights. Stark describes how capitalism was invented in Christian monasteries, motivated by the idea that we have a God-given obligation to make progress. Indeed, capitalism was in full flower in Europe centuries before Protestantism, the conventionally-accredited ‘founder’ of capitalism, arose.

By the end of the 13th Century modern type corporations operated in Italy with share ownership and profit distribution and merchant banks arose with branches around Europe.

There are very many good things in modern society. For example, children from all backgrounds can access education up to the highest levels. People live longer today than ever before, living standards are high compared to the past and little severe poverty remains. Women now have pretty much the same opportunities as men and a wide range of minority groups are now tolerated much better than in the past. And much more.

Consequences

Nevertheless, as European Christianity loses its influence negative consequences are clearly emerging. We now live in an age where individualism is rampant and the person is increasingly seen as the sum of his/her wants and desires.

There is widespread pressure to facilitate these wants/desires and to attach a human right to as many as possible, but little pressure to accompany new rights with responsibilities. Absolute values are denied and the notion of transcendent realities widely scorned.

Sexuality is commonly reduced to sensuality and the notion of gender fluidity has been enthusiastically embraced before being rigorously investigated. Material values predominate, periodically precipitating crises, e.g. the economic crash following the recent Celtic Tiger era. And current soaring suicide rates are surely related to diminished spiritual resources available to handle personal crises as formal religious observance declines.

First of all, if you think the "truth" is to kill gays and people who work on Sabbath, you need to have your head examined.

Second, of all, Christian church burned scientists at the stakes.  Do not forget Giordano Bruno and many like him.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giordano_Bruno

The truth will set you free.

Science advanced in Christian Europe DESPITE the fact that Europe was predominantly Christian.

BTW, you conveniently forget the fact HOW Europe became Christian.  It was not by choice.  Early Christian church converted Europe by sword and fire.

So stop talking about Christianity and science in the same sentence.  The Catholic church is the most evil institution ever.  Even ISIS does not measure up to the Catholic church.

Christians were killing everybody where ever they went.  They are responsible for genocides in North, Central and South Americas.

As I said before I absolutely do not believe "truth" demands we kill gays and people who work on the Sabbath.

Almost no one believes that not even fundamentalists like the Amish or the ultra-orthodox Jews. You seem hung up on this particular strawman.

Your distain of Christianity is in my opinion blinding your objectivity. Yes sins have been committed in the name of Christianity. Human beings often embrace evil with or without religion. God teaches us how to improve if we listen.

The Catholic church is one of the many human institutions built to honor and serve God. All such institutions are guaranteed to have at best a pale and shallow understanding of God. If you are Catholic you believe the church is the best of these institutions with the most accurate understanding of God.

The Catholic Church is far from perfect. It has many flaws and many crimes have been committed in its name. At the same time it has contributed greatly to human progress.

The claim that science had advanced despite religion completely overlooks the fundamental relationship between God, progress, and freedom. The only reason we have come as far as we have is due to the organizational superstructure provided by the worship of God.

If you are interested in the logic behind this I would refer you to the following posts:

Religion and Progress
The Nature of Freedom
The Beginning of Wisdom

First of all, if you think the "truth" is to kill gays and people who work on Sabbath, you need to have your head examined.

Second, of all, Christian church burned scientists at the stakes.  Do not forget Giordano Bruno and many like him.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giordano_Bruno

The truth will set you free.

Science advanced in Christian Europe DESPITE the fact that Europe was predominantly Christian.

BTW, you conveniently forget the fact HOW Europe became Christian.  It was not by choice.  Early Christian church converted Europe by sword and fire.

So stop talking about Christianity and science in the same sentence.  The Catholic church is the most evil institution ever.  Even ISIS does not measure up to the Catholic church.

Christians were killing everybody where ever they went.  They are responsible for genocides in North, Central and South Americas.

As I said before I absolutely do not believe "truth" demands we kill gays and people who work on the Sabbath.

Almost no one believes that not even fundamentalists like the Amish or the ultra-orthodox Jews. You seem hung up on this particular strawman.

Your distain of Christianity is in my opinion blinding your objectivity. Yes sins have been committed in the name of Christianity. Human beings often embrace evil with or without religion. God teaches us how to improve if we listen.

The Catholic church is one of the many human institutions built to honor and serve God. All such institutions are guaranteed to have at best a pale and shallow understanding of God. If you are Catholic you believe the church is the best of these institutions with the most accurate understanding of God.

The Catholic Church is far from perfect. It has many flaws and many crimes have been committed in its name. At the same time it has contributed greatly to human progress.

The claim that science had advanced despite religion completely overlooks the fundamental relationship between God, progress, and freedom. The only reason we have come as far as we have is due to the organizational superstructure provided by the worship of God.

If you are interested in the logic behind this I would refer you to the following posts:

Religion and Progress
The Nature of Freedom
The Beginning of Wisdom

And you are missing my point.  You don't need to overlay Christianity on progress and freedom.  You get progress and freedom despite Christianity.  Believe in unreal entities does not help you solve problems humanity is facing.  A fixed framework based on an outdated world view always hinders progress.  Religions were always in the business of enslaving not freedom.

Look in the historical context what this religion has done.  How can you say with a straight face religions contributed to progress?  You guys were killing people left and right, people who had progressive ideas or scientific breakthroughs.

Slavery, racial and gender inequality was a major thing in Christianity, until recently when the church had to give in.  Look how Amish communities treat women, how they treat children, how 'progressive' their communities are.  Christian communities few hundred years ago were more conservative and backwards than Amish communities of today.

Think of what you are saying.  Christianity was never about progress or freedom.  Quite the opposite.  We have a fucking proof in the living Amish and Mennonite communities, as well as in the thousands of people killed to STOP progress and enslave people on EVERY continent.

You can sell your religion propaganda in your church basement, but in an open forum it will be challenged with FACTS.


Without Christianity among people in America, America would not be close to free.

Christian people resisted the dictatorship that would have flowed out of the Constitution if they hadn't seen to it that the Bill of Rights was added.

Nowadays, it is atheism that is subjecting itself to a Government in America that it doesn't have to, and in ways that it doesn't have to, and slavery in America is expanding because of it.

Cool

Where is the Bible for the modern world?  Where the fuck is it?  Where is the Bible that talks about the ethical dilemmas we face today?

Where is the Bible that would talk about transgender surgeries, human cloning, genetic therapies, stem cell research, space exploration and bringing alien life to Earth etc?
  
Where is the Bible that would talk about crypto currencies?

You read some ancient, irrelevant book and think you stand on a higher moral ground?  You are as fucked up as the Bronze Age people were.  Follow the Bible I dare you, so that we can lock you guys up and throw away the key.


Truth does not change as we grow in knowledge though our understanding of it may broaden to reveal previously unrecognized depths.

Christianity Gave Rise To Modern Science
http://www.irishcatholic.ie/article/christianity-gave-rise-modern-science
Quote from: William Reville

Modern science arose in Christian Europe in the 17th Century, not in China which had developed a sophisticated culture long before Europe, or in classical Greece. Many people credit Christianity with providing the missing ingredients that gave rise to modern science.

The way Christians think about creation has four significant consequences. First, Christians believe in a rational God who created an orderly world. Second, the world is worthy of study because it is God’s creation. Third, in order to understand God’s handiwork it is necessary to examine the world. Fourth, the universe is not itself divine so it is not irreverent to investigate it. Together these four features provided the intellectual setting necessary to spark off modern science.

Christians believe that the individual is made in the image of God and is therefore endowed with intrinsic value and bears individual responsibilities. This gave rise, for example, to opposition to slavery. The Church banned slavery between Christians and ended slavery in Europe by the end of the 11th Century.

The Christian image of the individual also sparked concern for individual property rights. Stark describes how capitalism was invented in Christian monasteries, motivated by the idea that we have a God-given obligation to make progress. Indeed, capitalism was in full flower in Europe centuries before Protestantism, the conventionally-accredited ‘founder’ of capitalism, arose.

By the end of the 13th Century modern type corporations operated in Italy with share ownership and profit distribution and merchant banks arose with branches around Europe.

There are very many good things in modern society. For example, children from all backgrounds can access education up to the highest levels. People live longer today than ever before, living standards are high compared to the past and little severe poverty remains. Women now have pretty much the same opportunities as men and a wide range of minority groups are now tolerated much better than in the past. And much more.

Consequences

Nevertheless, as European Christianity loses its influence negative consequences are clearly emerging. We now live in an age where individualism is rampant and the person is increasingly seen as the sum of his/her wants and desires.

There is widespread pressure to facilitate these wants/desires and to attach a human right to as many as possible, but little pressure to accompany new rights with responsibilities. Absolute values are denied and the notion of transcendent realities widely scorned.

Sexuality is commonly reduced to sensuality and the notion of gender fluidity has been enthusiastically embraced before being rigorously investigated. Material values predominate, periodically precipitating crises, e.g. the economic crash following the recent Celtic Tiger era. And current soaring suicide rates are surely related to diminished spiritual resources available to handle personal crises as formal religious observance declines.


First of all, if you think the "truth" is to kill gays and people who work on Sabbath, you need to have your head examined.

Second, of all, Christian church burned scientists at the stakes.  Do not forget Giordano Bruno and many like him.

You ignore the fact that the Catholic Church isn't really Christian.

Further, any troubles anybody brings on America is because of Americans who are denying God. God isn't actively seeking problems for atheists. It's just that denying God is pushing His protection away.

Atheism is destroying America, and science can't even figure this out.

Christanity is not a poison you are just jerks and idiots. Not because you are atheist or believe in something else, it is because you think that Jesus does not love gay people, atheists. Jesus loves all people on Earth, it is just that catholic Christians say that gay and atheists aint okay by christanity. And saying christanity as a whole is poison is like saying all muslims are terrorist. And you clearly did not see Orthodox Christanity, you just talk shit since you do not have a clue what Christanity is like.

Atheism is the poison, how can you not believe in something, the world could not just create out of nothing, there must be something or someone behind and that is most likely God.

We can not explain God because we are smaller and mortals, can you explain how everything was created if not by God? You can not, you only know to talk bad thing about faith, and you cant even explain why you dont believe in anything.

Wow.   That is a low point even for a religious fanatic like you.  I guess that is the result of home schooling.

FYI, all Catholics are Christians.  Not all Christians are Catholic.


Wrong. Some Christians are Catholic. Catholic talks about Christ, but definitely doesn't save anyone except incidentally. Therefore, Catholic is not Christian.
