fuck those other trolls.
+1 for God made me
and I am beautiful and destroy all that stand in my way.
Well...in addition to promoting/enforcing some morality and stability in society. There is a reason the Bible is full of incest, pedophilia, rape, beastiality, adultery, murder, dismemberment, and so on.
Man was pretty animalistic prior to moral codes and some organized social structure. Worse than animalistic, since animals usually do things for a good biological/survival purpose, whereas man often does them merely because he can or because it entertains him.
Well no, not remotely to the extent they were (and continue to be found in tribal cultures). Police forces and criminal justice had as much to do with it.The world is still full of the things you listed despite religion coming along...
:hmm:
I'd say this right here is the strongest evidence yet against the existence of God.
wait until I take a full on crap on your head tonight.
I know you won't post about that though.
Funny how this thread is basically FULL of people who didn't follow the directions in the thread title. : /
Yeah, because this isn't exactly what the OP wanted. He wants to play victim. That's something I've always found odd, is even when they have a majority opinion, religious people seem to always have a feeling of being persecuted. If its not by other people its by their devil or even their own god (but of course they deserved it then).

if the anti-gay Christian movement has its way, then the state of CA will side with their current argument now on trial in defense of prop 8. Now, this is pretty damn insane, so bear with me:
The fundies are actually trying to argue (and this is in fact TRUE) that THEY--The Fundy Christians--are THE MINORITY GROUP in this debate--and it is THEIR RIGHTS, AS A MINORITY that prop 8 is designed to protect! The "Gay agenda MAJORITY" is threatening their civil liberties. Because, you know, Christians are such a threatened minority in this country. Fucking amazing.
They use the "I'm a persecuted minority" argument to backpedal under a campaign of hate and bitter discrimination, yet the "We are the dominant culture" voice when others try to claim that they should be more tolerant of various religions, beliefs, politicians that don't pray to god, believe that laws are defined by God, etc. Fucking unbelievable.
Holy fuck, it would be funny if it weren't so awfully true.
Roll your eyes all you want. Everything I said is true. Maybe you can't handle the truth.

You don't know what you are talking about. The OP wasn't wanting to be persecuted, nor do other religious people. You pretend to know how it all works though, because after all, you're an expert.

No, I just wanted a who loves Jesus post and to keep your riff raff out. IF you could read and follow directions, this would have been a simple thread.
I pray for you all.
I think the Brahamin have had it figured out for centuries, and still have the most rational, logical approach to the understanding of God:
the minute you start to talk about god, the minute you try to describe god (understanding god with a mortal, non-infinite mind), is the minute you fail to understand ..."It."
There is no single identifiable description or philosophy that can ever properly capture the essence of such a universal creator, and there sure as shit can't be a fleshy representation of such. The idea is patently ludicrous. I'm not sure about prophets though...maybe that concept remains somewhat kosher.
Silence and contemplation--meditation--is the only true means by which "a god" can be approached.
Of course I know that. People just can't control themselves.
Still, my previous post stands as truth.
More proof than you've provided. I'm going with the belief that man has had since mans inception over what a bunch of Internet champs/life failers think.
