You are making the point of the OP. You don't believe in the Christian God or Bible and yet you are here talking about what you don't believe in. undecided

That is not the point I'm making. The point that I am making is that as much as you claim to be based on the bible you often directly contradict the bible. You are confused.

"Remember now thy Creator in the days of thy youth, while the evil days come not, nor the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them" (Ecclesiastes 12:1).
That's wrong. It should be "enjoy your life in the days of your youth, when life is still enjoyable". Don't squander your youth by not enjoying it.

A car without the use of the manual book will have more purpose than a man who has not discovered his relationship with his Creator. Remember now your Creator. smiley
The purpose of life according to Christianity is a life of evangelism and going to heaven to praise God forever and ever. Not very interesting!

I still don't see why you spend a large part of your life attacking what you don't believe in. Why bother? undecided

If I were you I would learn from the experience and wisdom of the wisest man that ever lived during his time. His conclusion was that young men and women should remember their Creator instead of pursing after wealth and pleasure. He has shown us that when a young person fully realises that he has been created for a divine purpose and that his Creator has also become his Lord and Saviour, it will bring purpose and meaning to his life thereby changing his life forever.

Having a loving relationship with your Creator will make you more fulfilled. Jesus will make this happen for you if you believe in Him. smiley

Because your beliefs affect your behaviour in such a way that has detrimental effects on the well being of the general populace. You are a vermin on society.

Look who is claiming to know someone's intention. Hypocrisy upon hypocrisy.

Calling someone ignorant then trying to pretend that you are only asking questions and not claiming to know.


You are a vermin, but like the weeds amongst the crop unfortunately you cannot be weeded out completely yet but you can be exposed as much as possible.

If you hate biblical Christians and their God with a passion must you lie through your fingers to get your point across?

You rather exposed yourself that you are not a pastor. You also exposed yourself to be an self hating atheist but the most important exposure is the fact that you hate biblical Christians and their God with a passion and that explains why you really bother about biblical Christians and their God, it is because you are an enemy of Christ and you are out to attack anything that is associated with God. That explains why you seem to bother with threads on this section.

You cannot say that you don't claim to know yet in the same breath call another person ignorant.

What you say is what you say and represents you no matter what thread you said it on. Unless you your opinion changes from thread to thread.

(p.s. actually it does seem to change from thread to thread. On one thread you are proudly celebrating that Charles Martel (a catholic) stopped the Muslim advance into christian europe. Yet on another thread you will attack Catholics as been of the devil. Thereby you expose yourself to be a confused soul.

Yes you are right, I am contemptuous of those that champion a text as the absolute truth. However I don't need to lie to expose the stupidity of such a position.

I've told you why I bother with your threads. Evil must be challenged and that is why I challenge you. All that is required is that the debate continue. Feel free to continue to post hateful threads, and I'll continue to make a point of showing you why you are nasty.

Any monkey can say that. The point remains that you are mendacious, and you pick and choose what you quote in the bible in order to support some nasty standpoint or the other.

In fact this post that I'm responding to is just another example of that.

Many times (especially in the past),society rules have been dictated by ancient religious views, that gets enforced on non believers as well. Of course we'd bring up our case on these silly dogmas and beliefs.

Sorry but long since before Mankind start cultivating (cultivating the earth, or cultivating all sorts of convoluted misguiding doctrines), seeds have always taken root and sprouted and grown since the dawn of earth.

The truth will prevail whether or not you cultivate and mix manure or poo with it or not.

Traditional dogmas and beliefs is different from true Christianity. Traditional religion is a man made way of searching and reaching out to God but Christianity is God searching and reaching out for man. The Son of God became the Son of Man so as to make man become the sons of God. smiley

And how is this related to the one you divided into two aspects in the front page? undecided

As I said on the front page, there are two aspects to religion. A personal aspect and a civic aspect.

In the above case a personal aspect would be when you take it upon yourself to personally care for orphans and unfortunates.

A civic aspect would be when the state/govt takes it upon itself with contributions from members of the community to take care of the less fortunate in society.

An example of the civic aspect could include the Tithing of all food stuffs as practiced in Ancient Israel, the food was then shared with all those who didn't have any food.

“When you have finished paying all the tithe of your produce in the third year, which is the year of tithing, giving it to the Levite, the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow, so that they may eat within your towns and be filled,

Deuteronomy 26:12

This can also be done on a personal level at the whim of the individual who cares for the condition of the unfortunate in his society.

Atheism is NOT the rejection of religion neither is it religious skepticism . Anyone can be religious , both atheists and theists .

Atheism is just empty and your post is a complete waste of space .

I agree. Not only can atheists be religious but Everyone in the world is religious in someway or the other it's just a matter of whether they are practicing True religion or whether they are practicing some kind of Satanic cultism like the OP.
