so what happens when another religion is actually right and you die a christian?
i can't stand the thought of believing and loving a God who is all powerful yet lets people go to Hell, i would much rather prefer to believe in a loving god |

It is something i do of and on. If you notice homosexuals tend to be some of the most creative people alive. And im tryin to be superior in anyway, far from it we are, anyways. Its just that being a homo forces that person to think out of the box and consider alternatives. I hate all the people in our town that just take everything at face value. I find it sad that if they were born in Iraq then they most likely would be muslim and in support of Saddam Hussein.

no other religion is right. look into and trust me, christianity is the answer. there are no discrepancies in it.
and yes it is much easier to think of a God who loves everyone and doesn't want them to go to hell isn't it. well God doesn't want anyone to go to hell. it is instead out of a love that surrpasses all understanding, that ppl do go to hell. sounds messed up doesn't it? but how would you like everyone to go to hell and have no say in the matter? that is a dictatorship, and God does not deal that way. he instead gives us a free mind. and yes it kills him to see ppl chose to go to hell. i've purposely withheld scripture because often times, ppl are more turned off by that, if you want though, i can give you a few |

you're right jake. had i grown up in a devout muslim family, most likely i would support that faith. not because it is right, but because it would be forced on me. if i denied it, then i would be killed or denounced from my family. but tell me, if that religion is love, then why would they do that. why would they treat women as they do. so many problems with that. and the only reason why i would suppport suddam is due to fear. i mean honestly he uses chemical warfare on his own ppl and kills them if they do not vote for him. he won the election with 100% of the vote. that is such a joke

monkees, your use of scripture cant prove shit. its so easy to take any scripture out of its own context and pertain it to any meaning.
by the way, how could you prove that christianity is right if you're using a christian book (the bible) to prove it? thats like me pulling out an american history book written from an american point of view and trying to prove the history of another country. |

yep yep yep, but if i was an all-powerful god, i'm pretty sure i'd realize that instead of knowing that i was the one who created them with the free mind and obviously some may be corrupted and therefore sending them to hell, i'd just make nice people. unless that's just his form of entertainment, we are created in his image supposedly right? maybe he has a morbid fascination with conflict and likes watching RealTV like programming too

Once again Titan,
<b> THIS IS NOT FUCKING ICQ <\b> if you're gonna make 2 word posts, get on msn or something. You're just taking up space. At least say something intelligent that is worth our time to read. [This message has been edited by St. Anky (edited November 18, 2002).] |

true about extreme islam. but if you look at turkey or egypt those people are not forced to be islamic and they are democratic. and im still sure that if the majority of the kids from warsaw had grown up in that culture then they would accept it at face value with out thought. This is how our culture strikes me. Always finding itself righteous and superior. I find the only reason we have developed the most is because christianity has a deep intersest in education and everyone knows knowledge is power. this has certianly helped seprate the west from the rest of the world. also look at our geography. we have the worlds best climates and land of all, with the most abudant resources. Not to mention europe is set strategically between two major continents which is good for cultural diffusion and the spread of ideas through trade. My point then is that i hate how people from our culture can be so one tracked and act all superior with out giving others a chance. this is primarily directed at comedian and the other set of dumbasses who use this site to try to make themselves feel better about themselves.

st anky i not not using just the Bible. or just christian references. like i said a while back, the bible, along with many other books in this world of ours all corralate together. i mean you look at herod in the bible, then you look at egyptian history books and you will see that he delt with Christ. that is just one of many examples. as for twisting scripture, i definately agree with that. many in this post have already misused it. but as i said earlier, you have to read more than just the one liners. you have to dig in deeper than just face value. and with my sanctified imagination, i do my best to see it not from my own standpoint, but that of God's. i don't know if that was explained the best, do you understand what i am saying?
titan- many seem to twist these words around God did create us in his image. does that mean that every fraility and problem that is in each and every human come straight from God and does he feel the same things? no. that is where the villian comes in, satan. when looking at the very beginning with adam and eve, there was no sin, and they were in God's image. Then satan in the form of a serpent came along and disrupted the entire thing. it was not God, but satan |

well lets see here. lets relook at warsaw. look how many non christians there are about 75% of kosiosko are unchurched. alarming isn't it. nevermind how many are non christians. now you are telling me that if ppl in this community grew up in iran that they would believe muslim. i highly doubt that |

im sticking up for someone who's done nothing but show respect but at the same time voiced his opinion. just because you're a little pussy who always does what their told and never thinks on their own doesnt mean you need to ALWAYS follow suit. you're just another conformist comedian...
give the guy a break, it takes some balls to do the shit he's done |

We still believe.

Can we please kill this topic, I am tired of it. Except we can do nothing, and stop attacking 'Jake' the person. All you can do is worry about what he is doing, and if he thinks it is right then he will deal with the consequences. But dont rip the hell out of him for this.

understood brass. didn't God creat lucifer and then he went all berzerk? why can't he then just kick his ass since he created him? sorry, not asking you directly, i know you don't know everything, but does it say anything about that in the bible?
and anky, just cuz you're better at performing sexual favors for small prices than performing in a band, is no reason to rip on me. [This message has been edited by Titan (edited November 18, 2002).] |

Anky-
It does take some balls to do the shit he's done. But that still doesn't mean I have to respect him. I do not agree with his lifestyle, therefore I do not agree with who he is. ------------------ ~The Comedian~ |
