Topic: Anti-Christians.

Wow! Such a convincing argument!

Doesn't make Jesus real either. It's stuff like this, I think, that makes Christians look silly - this whole you-don't-know-the-truth junk. Your religion is a faith, man, not fact. That's what makes religion religion. Now you have your opinions, of course, but it doesn't excuse arrogant, holier-than-thou condescension.

 

It's funny, christians, to a person of another religion's eyes, you astray, walking off the Holy Path. And they wish that they could make you see the light, but you can't force someone to do that. We're all going to hell, in someone elses eyes.

 

i never said they were real...i simply said christianity borrowed its stories and symbolism from other dieties. and i thought i did a pretty good job at giving evidence to support my statement, but i guess you cant make people see what they dont want to see

 

This can counter a couple of peoples posts but especially loverofthewood's post. You say that the stories of the Bible where copied off from other religions, then why are there chariot wheels dated back to the time of Moses. And there aren't just chariot wheels on the bottom there are whole chariots, there are spairs, and humans remains. Go read the story of the red sea crossing-if you forgot and then go to this site... http://www.arkdiscovery.com/red_sea_crossing.htm



and by the way Ron Wyatt is not the only one that has gone down and researched this- many others have.... so please don't try to discredit Ron Wyatt.


I'll be gone for 2 weeks on a fishing trip... so I wont be able to hear your lovely respones.

 

It IS fact however if u have felt God....and in honesty you're right i cant explain this....except to say its the truth coz i've felt it....thats the problem y'see.....'til you've felt it ur gonna mock it, i kno i did so i cant really judge you either...however i quite liked my witty *coughs* bro thing! lol! PLus i'm not arrogant or holier than thou.....i totally understand how annoying christians can be.....i used to think so too.

I tried to see ur point but y'see the Bible tells me that my God is the only one....just coz there are loads of religions brfore christianity and they are similar to it doesn't mean that Chrstianity took these ideas...its a coincidence. The Bible was written as an account for real events as well as parables.

Sorry but I'm gonna have to do that anyway

Ron Wyatt was full of it, not terribly surprising, 'cuz otherwise it would've obviously been a much bigger story. Just another case of people exploiting the faithful's will to believe. And that link's coming from a Christian site too.

Enjoy your fishing trip, though.

That's better, I'm fine with that, since you acknowledge it's a subjective view.

 

hoorah!

There was a time in history when rulers who were govered by Satan tried to spread Christianity throughout the world by the sword....its sad.

NO true Christian would do that nor would have. Its just that simple. Christianity is not complex...the devil would like and does make you think that. (Thats not directed at you meiska)

 

you'd think god would take better care of his church then do somthing like let satan run it...

 

Ah, but why would God mettle in the affairs of mortals? I think part of the reason that christainity is becoming more militant is that much of it's public veiws and symbols are being labeled "discrimatory" or "prejudiced". Which in my veiw it isn't. The 10 commandments are not only a historic cornerstone of most modern western laws, but they are also very true. "Thou shalt have no other gods before", this could be taken as totally and arrogantly christain, but take it as a veiw of yours. For example, let's say you're an atheist and you believe that you are god, in that case you want no one else veiwed higher than you in YOUR eyes. I see no point in ripping down these old religious symbols, they aren't offensive unless you make them so.

 

Uhh... that doesn't make sense. Atheists don't believe that they themselves are gods, because atheists don't believe in gods.

 

I was trying to make a point. Just see things as you want to see them. Do you find anything offensive about the 10 commandments?

 

:Shrug: Offended wouldn't be the right word, it's pretty hard to offend me. I don't say that there's nothing meritable about the Ten Commandments, but I think when we want to incorporate its ideas into government we could just easily sift out the good advice that's in it without having to patronize a religion. I'm not really offended by it but I don't think we need the religious connotation either.

 

God created us. We are his children. When your children do something that you specifically asked them not to do, wouldn't you interfere? Of course, it seems that parents are too self-involved nowadays to be part of their childrens lives. Their kids are having sex at earlier ages, walking around baring half of their bodies, doing drugs, drinking, and disregarding all sense of morals and vaules. Most parents walk around, blind to it all.

 

Eh, I more see it as more parents realizing that a lot of traditional morals and such aren't really as important or as valid as they were made out to be, and some parents can trust their kids to do those things (more or less) responsibly. Just my opinion though. I don't unequivocably support all those activities you've mentioned, but it's also more of a personal choice thing.

 

Well, things do seem to be morally defunct today, but i wasn't around during the golden generation so i can't compare things. A decline in religion though usually signals an immense collapse in morals as well.

 

Well, morals are mostly a relative thing, once you get past the basic don't-kill-steal-harm-people mark. Not everyone has to fit within one precise set of morals.
