Your religion

Your religion has actually convinced people that there's an invisible man living in the sky who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of 10 things he does not want you to do. And if you do any of these 10 things he has a special place full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry for ever and ever until the end of time...but he loves you.

How do you feel about that?

 

I feel great about it, thanks for asking!

 

i like it very much.... and i think most ppl on the CHRISTIANITY forum will agree........glad to kno the basics stuck with you!!!

Not sure which religion you're talking about, but that's certainly not Christianity!

 

It's clear enough that you are not well informed about Christianity. This is a simplistic and silly criticism you make. Do you seriously imagine that something such as you describe could , for example. have inspired some of the world's greatest art and music? And do you think it is likely to be taken seriously by anyone??

 

I don't know, seems she hit the main points of the religion, she just missed the part where you can murder 15 people and then repent and everything is ok.

 

Awww, don't be mean to em, MoonFlar.(shakes finger at face)Tsk Tsk!

 

I can only speak for myself, and what I have learned from Christian teachings.

I don't believe in ' an invisible man in the sky'. God is far more than that!

As for an arbitrary set of rules, strictly speaking, the ten commandments belong to Judaism. Christ gave two new commandments for his followers, and according to the New Testament, Grace is what saves us, not ridgid adherence to the Law.

As for multiple murderer - sorry, you've lost me there. It is clearly not ok! But God could forgive even that. Society of course, cannot, and must have civil laws to protect the public.

 

Quote:Grace is what saves us, not ridgid adherence to the Law.

So are you one of the smart ones who realize that christian law is made by man to create a more harmonious and moral society? Finally, someone who is smart enough not to be a literalist.

 

Oh yes, I forgot that one. Stupid me.

 

-Following the laws of the Bible shows Jesus that we love him. Although it is impossible to follow them all the time, to make an attempt is the key. Most people do not make this attempt. Even some who claim that they are Christians don't. And in all reality they are not really Christians. Do not be fooled.

"They claim to know God, but by their actions they deny him." -Titus 1:16

Also, it's sad that there is so many people on this forum that talk down Christianity yet they have no clue what the Bible is really about.

 

good old titus! always solving the worlds problems

 

Not well informed? Would you please, oh great one, tell me the 411, then? I think I'm right on, which pisses you off to see your religion ridiculed.

 

If you really loved your god, you would obey them all. Like you people say 'all things are possible with God.'....am I right?

This is supposed to make what point? I never claimed I didn't deny God.

Excuse me, I've read the bible. Cover to cover. It's sad that so many 'Christians' know less about it than I do. You can't even give an educated response to the post, you have to ramble on and on with things that have been said.

 

lol! Nice summary. Who could not want to adopt this fabulous religion? It just makes so much sense.
See you in Hell moonflower

 

"I think I'm right on".... Thank you for your opinion on Christianity.

 

Damn double posts.

 

Muahahahahahaha. I'll save you a front row seat?

Opinion? Oh, that's right....I insulted your religion.
It's more than opinion.

 

all religions are manmade and all religious ideas are too, therefore the must have some flaws in em...

 

Well, I'm sorry but I don't know what you mean by 'the 411'.

As far as it goes, I'm not pissed off - and nor do I have to revert to personal insults to make my point.

As for it being my religion, I think in fact it is God's.
