What an outstanding intellectual dishonesty! Shocked

Aren't we who blame religion for the wars, it's the people at war who does it.
And yes, it's recurrent that you use your imaginary friend to "forgive your sins"; let me tell you that under an atheists point of view only the people you did harm to can forgive you, not your imaginary friend.

It seems to me you probably know some Christians who aren't very good at being Christian. The whole point of Christianity is to try as hard as you can to be sin-less and Christ-like. They should not be harming others to the point that they can't be forgiven by those people.

There's a pretty simple and plain forward moral rule to abide to:

"Don't do to others what you wouldn't want them to do to you".

Easy and solves most of the problems... and turns funny religious people is usually so unaware of it.

Yes, Jesus taught this, and all Christians should live by it, as it's 1 of 2 commandments He gave. I always try to think about what I would like in a situation and act accordingly.

right lets talk about love in religion

a jew lets there son or daughter die because there god says nature must take its cause its gods will Undecided

rather than let a doctor operate on there kids

a muslim will stone his own daughter to death if they commit adultery
plus they will do all sorts of horrible things to there own daughters if they do not comply ..

a christian will disown there own child and say horrible things to there own child if they are gay they even say there going to hell with hatred for there own children

so being an atheist means i cannot love.. Cheesy

religious freaks love a book more than there own family
AND GOD SAID NO HE NEVER ITS ALL IN YOUR MIND Grin

A Christian should never disown their child or say horrible things to their child. They aren't much of a Christian if they do.

So is jesus a contradicting liar Wink

i mean the bible tells you to do one thing and then says do the opposite ..so even god does not know what he is talking about Cheesy

i cannot be 100% there is no god .. but at the same time i cannot be 100% i am actually here.
am i in the matrix who know for sure.. Cheesy

Video: Why Jewish People Do Not Believe In Jesus

Comment: "The Talmud was written by Rome centuries after the New Testament , so every Jew that is worshiping the Talmud is deceived."

Yes, everyone on earth will rise again. The ones that Jesus finds favor with will live forever, and the rest will not. They will be ashes under our feet.

SO WHATS THE POINT IN KILLING US ALL THEN BRINGING US ALL BACK TO LIFE Undecided

BE MUCH EASIER TO JUST LET US ALL LIVE FOREVER

God doesn't kill us. We die. We're cursed to death, because the wages of sin are death. Luckily, the Lord came up with a plan to save us through Jesus Christ, and when we're revived, we will be able to live forever if tried to be as Christ-like (sin-less) as possible through the grace of Jesus forgiving the sins we did commit.

The Bible doesn't talk about the fruit being given to Adam or Eve. It talks about Eve taking it, presumably from the tree.
.....
God told Adam and Eve that the day they would eat the forbidden fruit, they would surely die. And they did die that day, in spiritual perfection. We, their descendants, receive the same because we are corrupted as they became, both in body and in spirit.

The point is, they committed suicide. God didn't kill them. But God is offering us all the way out of death, into eternal life in joy. Too bad for you that you don't want it.

I have an interesting theory I heard recently. It's that there may have been some sort of sexual immorality on Eve's part, not eating fruit, that was the sin. Which makes more sense since her punishment was sexual in nature (childbirth pains), instead of something to do with eating/hunger/knowledge.
