If you’re a Christian just so you can play it safe and double-down in case there’s an afterlife, so when you get to the gates St. Peter doesn’t say, “Sorry asshole, you had the wrong religion,” you and I both know that is a horrible reason to have faith.
You claim that I don’t let anyone prove facts from the Bible to me, when in reality you haven’t shown me ANYTHING even related to a fact. Sure, you quoted plenty of passages from your trusty iPhone app, but restating Biblical text is not proof by any means; it’s repetitive gibberish.
And lastly, why on Earth would I want to be part of such a hateful, bigoted religion? Last time I checked “God hates fags” is a Christian organization, people who discriminate against other people because they aren’t just like them. Not only that, but the Catholic church, a sect of Christianity, doesn’t want women to have control over their own bodies; they don’t want them to have access to birth control and abortions because it makes Jesus-lovers feel queezy. Catholic priests are being convicted every week of more molestation charges. How can you defend your religious leaders now?
And let’s not forget about the history of Christians: remember the crusades? Remember Christian slaveholders and the KKK? And even today, most Christians are conservatives who don’t want to give their money away, especially to other countries. Do you really think that would have been a Jesus ideal? Do you think Jesus would hoard all his money and stock canned goods? Pretty much every Christian I meet is pathetically hypocritical.
Religion is for weak, superstitious people like yourself who are too scared to imagine dying without an afterlife, people who need an imaginary friend and couldn’t bare being on their lonesome like they really are. I really hope that you are soon enlightened by proof that you can actually see and by people who actually know what they’re talking about.
Final note: Sodom and Gomorrah was a city of sin; people were doing all kinds of hanky panky and naughty things. So when God caught wind of this, he sent down two angels to talk to the town leader. Unfortunately, the townspeople tried to rape them on the way. Now, to make sure that his city didn’t get the reputation of a place that… rapes angels… he gave up his own two daughters to satisfy the mob. And he was the good guy in town, the hero of the story! So why the fuck would I wanna put my hand on the King James Bible?
Unless you are talking about semi auto Bibles I think you put this in the wrong section.
Its funny how we never traded a little bit of freedom of religion after the Jonestown Massacre.
