the thing that it says if someone slaps you you give them another cheek to slap..but why do christians kill other relegions and themselves if they belive this?
Asherlee, I'm not in denial, I'm just wondering when you last heard of a Christian murderer in the last 100 years. I'm not in denial at all, just tell me of a Christian murderer, name one. (and I am not saying Christianity is full of perfect people)
'Throughout his life, Hitler often praised Christian heritage, German Christian culture, and a belief in Jesus Christ. In his speeches and publications Hitler even spoke of Christianity as a central motivation for his antisemitism, stating that "As a Christian I have no duty to allow myself to be cheated, but I have the duty to be a fighter for truth and justice"'
Serb, please get your facts straight before you insult a member of the community. Just because you don't want to believe it to be true, doesn't mean that it isn't. Please show respect, and watch your cursing.
No, I am not any of those things, and I do not feel that I need to tell you what my beliefs are. I spit on no one, and I respect Judaism.
I highly suggest that you stop making false claims and start acting nicer, because you are in violation of the Rules & Guidelines. Especially when you are insulting two moderators at once. For some reason that doesn't strike me as a good idea.
Think about this: If there was no religion, but lets say last week jesus was born and starting preaching christianity, he would look as crazy as tom cruise
i dont get why peolpe are always talking about how weird christians are it annoys the crap out of me.(btw im christian lol) and how everyone is always talking about how so many peolpe who were mass slaughterers were christians. have you ever heard of the roman times when christians were slaughtered because they threatened the roman power. they were being put to extinction. im not saying christianity is perfect because i really treat all religions equal. im just saying why do peolpe always have to judge religions based on so few things.
Taco, it seems that is a part of MOST (not all) religions. People kill in the name of their country or religion and lash out on specific groups to make a point. This is why I have deduced that organized religion might be a bad idea. I think personal spirituality is the way to go. I know I don't need religion to believe in a higher power.
I mean look at how many people have died because of religion.
usually id think that a thought like asherlees about organized religeon is stupid but when someone explains it like that it seems like the right thing to do
well all the killing isnt so bad. now dont start thinking bad about me let me explain first. The world is starting to overpopulate. if the millions who had died over religion lived, then they would have had more kids. then those kids would have had kids and so on. War, religion, and disease is how our world has kept from being even worsely overpopulated today. ive read somewhere that about 45 people are born each second and about 27 people die each second. Without all the fighting and disease of the world the dying rate would be much lower. Just like rabbits have natural predators like foxes to keep their numbers in check, fighting is the way we keep our numbers in check. Although even these things arent working as they should thanks to modern medicine,
