IMO very good point.
I’m not upset over Kennedy being assassinated, either. Historical facts will do that. I’m fascinated you find it fascinating.
Shocking
Decades ago at the RCC in my hometown the common belief was that the nuns and priests lived in housing that was completely disconnected from one another. That was until building repair workers found a previously unknown passageway that connected the two dwellings. And low and behold what did they find there one day. The remains of an aborted fetus.
A reply from someone who is erroneous on so many subjects. What you fail to understand is you’re talking about denominations and church buildings. It’s actually a lot more than that. Those are man-made things, and they can have uses, but they’re not the “Church”….
Today's religion is not a ministry It's an enterprise hiding behind a tax exempt number. If it is not an enterprise then why do they pass the collection plate? Why does it always oppose efforts to eliminate the tax deductibility of donations? Perhaps you in your superior intellect can explain to me why given that it operates on a profit and loss basis why today's organized religion is not an enterprise?
Because you’re talking about religion, and denominations, I’m not. Not that those are inherently bad, but they are totally different than being a Christian. It’s what you fail to understand. And always will as long as you’re a non-believer tried to analyze it from the outside.
Yes
That's never stopped you.
Nope, he pretends Christianity is the most destructive form of religion, and it fails to realize being an atheist is far more destructive in every aspect. Both now and in eternity. Quite a sad existence for someone who doesn’t believe and thinks his 60 to 80 years is all there is.
What is the basis of your contention that Christianity is not a religion? What sets it apart from Buddhism , Hinduism or Islam? Are you saying that there are no self righteous hypocrites within the Christian community?
Well, the first thing is our God rose from the grave. Quite a bit different from those dead guys. We’re getting ready to celebrate that you should join us. And if you think I believe there’s no self-righteous Christians, you would be mistaken and you would also probably need to read the Bible and understand it. It also talks about those kind of people they’re going to have a fate worse than yours.
And the bible you use no matter which version is full of historical accounts of bloodshed and death going back thousands of years involving civilizations who have attempted and often succeeded in destroying one another over the question of who's god is the true god and who loves him more and who among those civilizations is god's chosen people. And that war continues to this very day and will still be waged long after you and I are gone.
Oh no, not bloodshed and death it’s almost like the Bible, doesn’t whitewash the sad state of the human condition and falling man? You should really stick to things you understand don’t know why you’re in this thread if you don’t believe but it’s clear deep down you know you’re wrong and it bothers you.
Point?
Then you must not use the KJV because it's full of wars over religion. And more importantly when it comes to accusing me of being wrong you're without question standing in judgement over me. And doesn't your holy book say something to the effect...."judge not...or lest ye be judged'?Oh no, not bloodshed it’s almost like the Bible, doesn’t whitewash the sad state of the human condition and falling man? You should really stick to things you understand don’t know why you’re in this thread if you don’t believe but it’s clear deep down you know you’re wrong and it bothers you.
You don’t see me in the FedEx threads because I don’t understand it and I don’t care
I’m not judging you. That’s Gods place, I can’t damn you to hell only you can do that. Keep pretending you understand what the book says, because you don’t.
The point are the simple facts. In the entire history of mankind can you think of an issue that resulted in the deaths of more innocent people that religion?
