Actually, it's the reverse. Constantine struck a "great compromise" with the Early Church--stuff like an eternally burning hell that is burning right now, an immortal soul, idolatry (cloaked as praying to the saints), Sunday worship a celibate priesthood, sinless saints, saintly intercession, Mother Mary as intercessor, an ANGRY GOD, infallible popes (whose number is 666 interestingly enough SEE HERE), and a whole host of other changes to early Christianity which was based on decentralized churches who worshiped on the Sabbath and kept dietary laws. The linchpin of all this is MAN and his works became the center of salvation not Grace through faith. It would take many deaths by burning at the stake and many religious wars for that truth to come out...

Lots of what is laughable about "Christianity" now is due to this apostasy/compromise.

In essence, the Roman "church" turned Faith into a superstition. No wonder many Catholics (I was once an RC) become atheists....

That's why if you are Catholic (like I was) the video would be ROTFLMAO funny. However, if you've done your research, you can feel sorry for Carlin cuz of the stuff he was fed by the "Church"

@ Donny - who created the God that created us ?

@ Johnnyboi - who created the Aliens that created us ?

@ God - why did you create Donny and Johnnyboi, is this really a false flag argument to cover up your real motives ?

@ GideonGallbladder - would DMCA work in this thread or would God claim safe harbour ?

@ DamianJ - is Gary allowed a horse in this race ?

@ DvTimes - link ?

@ Paul Markham - does God dictate your ridiculous threads about the demise of porn ?

@ Nathan - did Manwin buy God yet ?

@ All of you Jesus freaks - PICS OR IT DID NOT HAPPEN !

:winkwink:

Homosexuality was labeled as an abomination in the Old Testament. Other things that were labeled the same:

-Eating Shellfish
-Paying high interest rates
-Getting remarried
-Prideful arrogance
-Hiring a prostitute
-Not Helping the poor
-Adultery

Etc, etc.

Lots of things are called abominations. Some people just choose their "pet abominations" to focus on. Homosexuality happens to be one of those. There are reasons God asked certain things to be avoided. Obviously, homosexuals can't fulfill the whole "be fruitful and multiply" command. But that particular "sin" is no more offensive to God than the others listed. You won't ever see me holding a sign telling homosexuals that God hates them, 'cause if that was true I'd have to hold another sign pointing at me, too. From a Christian view: God hates sin, Jesus paid for all sins (past, present and future). We choose whether or not to accept his payment made on our behalf.

Here I fixed it for ya

So you worship and support a god that hates homosexuals and promotes slavery.

You're a joke and so is your belief.

You're not paying attention. God doesn't hate homosexuals.

You, too, aren't paying attention. I've been owning my wrongs for many years now. I've shared the things I've done in front of literally millions. I accept the blame for what I've done wrong. But I also realize I can't possibly "pay" for it, which is where the Jesus payment comes into play.

Just one simple question.
Who created god if he exists ?

Sorry but it falls into the same category as "Santa Claus". All man made up.

Anyways, once you start learning about the universe. Nothing stands. See sig.

I notice how you you avoid the slavery claim.

These are direct quotes from YOUR bible.

Then why does the church denounce gay marriage but turn a blind eye to the hundreds if not thousands of pedo priests?

dogma

just like how at one time the Church forbade the Bible to be read in any other language but Latin, and forbade people from thinking about what the Priests thaught them. Or how they killed the ugliest and most beautiful women in a community because they were of the devil.

an acquaintance of mine who's half Jewish would say to this the Torah (Old Testament) was doctored over time by the Pharisees and Levites to turn YHWH into a blood-thirsty, vengeful God. She makes a pretty compelling argument connecting the dots which makes sense considering what Jesus says about God - dwelling in the light and being the light who's also all-loving and all fogiving.

Other's believe YHWH was an entity - a dragon or a spirit depends on whom you ask - among several, that Moses chose

What is it called if you believe is several gods?

Good questions. Fortunately, God does not = those in His fan club.

Then tell me why the vatican won't allow gay marriage but will allow molestation amongst the prists within the church? They supposedly follow the word of god right? The "church" is nothing more than a corrupt agency that seeks out retards like yourself. You are a tool nuff said and I feel sorry for your son you brain washing tard.

politehism

nothing, carry on with your ponny

I'm not Catholic. But thanks for your kind words.

Blasphemy

Well... I'll go on the record, right here and now, as agreeing that that is indeed an abomination.

And, charging the same is nothing less than a mortal sin :2 cents:

yeah sure...

God topics always net the longest threads.

Can I get me a halle-freaking-lujah

He was smart dude...
