Religion is the biggest business in the world, I dont believe mostly everything from the "book" and Buddha, and Alla, etc etc
Christianity generates more profit than Walmart, Microsoft & and every oil company in the world combinedIf you think tough men are dangerous, wait until you see what weak men are capable of.

ok...I think faith is merely believing in something that cannot be proven to you with empirical or physical evidence. If you think just because people don't subscribe to a religion they don't know what faith is then you are sorely mistaken. You cannot see, touch, or smell a feeling you have like love, but you still believe in it. With respect to your science as a religion comment, I'd like to see you qualify that statement without talking about scientology. Science exists because there are many questions that religion has failed to answer and I'm not just talking about Christianity here. Without science and the scientific method we would not know much about anything and we would probably still be dying in our 20's or 30's. Where would our society be without the advancement of science and technology?
I almost fell off my chair when I read; "Christians have something called faith which you know very little about. It explains everything instantly without need for physical scientific evidence". What is explained to you? Does it not bother you that there are other religions out there that contradict what you know to be "absolute truth"? How do you explain this phenomenon?
I'm not going to sit here and bash religion or Christianity because I'm not that kind of a guy. I understand where you are coming...Just because I do not subscribe to it does not mean that I don't understand its utility. If you believe in something, then great for you, I am happy for you that you have something fulfilling in your life. But please do not be that guy or girl that has to convince everyone else that they are wrong because they don't have the same beliefs as you do.

OK, probably best if I take this in sections again.
Sorry but again utterly wrong here. The basis or roots of Christianity can be traced back much earlier than the time of Jesus Christ and the advent of the Christian church.I am not speaking LITERALLY about Jesus power, but Jesus(which is the BASIS of Christianity) still remains omnipotent in this day and age.
You only have to talk to them to see that sadly many of them seem to have an affliction to anything that contradicts anything that they have convinced themselves of.How would you know what is and isnt a problem for Christians?
Oh I have faith my friend, but not in the blind, lazy, arrogant type so many ignorant people choose to posses rather than enrich themselves with truth.Christians have something called faith which you know very little about. It explains everything instantly without need for "physical scientific evidence".
Well again I think you are letting your imagination run away with itself here. I couldn't care less what Christians choose to become or not become, but I do think that it's high time that the Christain church started to treat their belivers in a more honest and grown up way.See you are coming from the viewpoint of a "science" which is also a religion(but I digress thats another argument) and obviously you seem to think that with scientific evidence you can disband Christianity and make Christians atheists. What you fail to understand is that Christianity is such a perfect religion that nothing can physical can disprove it to its believers.
And that is one sad inditement on the christian mindset.What you fail to understand is that Christianity is such a perfect religion that nothing can physical can disprove it to its believers.
[/QUOTE]Learn what faith is and what it means then continue this conversation with me when you can acknowledge its power.

I wonder what Donny thinks about all this.
Would be another perspective to hear his take on all this.Comment

Nice try, but here how about a little more reputable source than the devils dictionary lol.
Faith
1. Confident belief in the truth, value, or trustworthiness of a person, idea, or thing.
2. Belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence. See synonyms at belief, trust.
3. Loyalty to a person or thing; allegiance: keeping faith with one's supporters.
4. often Faith Christianity. The theological virtue defined as secure belief in God and a trusting acceptance of God's will.
5. The body of dogma of a religion: the Muslim faith.
6. A set of principles or beliefs.Comment

Uhm Christianity is named "Christianity" for a reason lol. THE CHRIST. Yes there were "religions" before Jesus but Jesus "started" Christianity.
That would entirely be your opinion. I know MANY Christians that are much happier than most normal people.
Actually I would argue having faith in Christianity is absolutely not lazy its very "hard" to logically comprehend the religion on that level. Ignorance to science maybe but not ignorance in general. You paint with a wide brush here, there are many who believe in Christianity with a higher intellect than both you and I.
YOU think its high time? Who made you a God? They already have a God why would they listen to what someone as obviously irrelevant as you would say? I dont mean that as a personal attack but trust me you will never be an authority on the subject.
So POWER is the goal we should all strive to achieve in our lives?
Also I find it extremely offensive that you think Christianity(and to a more general extent religion) is a bad thing that should be "destroyed".
1. Half of the world believe in Jesus, One third of the world believes in Christianity.
2. Science is a MAN MADE religion as well, we come to conclusions according to laws and measurements that were made BY MAN.
3. Science has yet to prove there is no "creator".
4. Prove to me that science can explain the creation of the universe.Comment

Yes, Christianity does have that name for a reason. It comes from the Greek term "Christos" which means, ( roughly translated from the old Greek ), " One who is annointed with sacred oil" .Jesus Christ, ( or to give him his proper title - Jesus the Christ), was one of a select band who had been annoited with sacred oil by preists after they were satisfied he had attained a certain level of knowledge and spiritual enlightenment. Two other figures from the time of JC who were probably annointed in such a way were Simon Magus and John the Baptist.Uhm Christianity is named "Christianity" for a reason lol. THE CHRIST. Yes there were "religions" before Jesus but Jesus "started" Christianity.
Although JC's religious sect was primarily that of the Essene's Many of the teachings and strictures of JC can be reliably traced back to several sources including ancient Egypt, the far East and India. As I stated earlier in this thread he allmost certainly was privaledged enough to be the recipient of an exceptional education in wisdom and esoteric subjects, but he wasn't the only one.
Yes of course there is, but lets not forget there are plenty of those same high intellectuals that also disagree.Actually I would argue having faith in Christianity is absolutely not lazy its very "hard" to logically comprehend the religion on that level. Ignorance to science maybe but not ignorance in general. You paint with a wide brush here, there are many who believe in Christianity with a higher intellect than both you and I.
What are you talking about now ? - I merely stated my opinion and LOL, did'nt bother God in any way. "Never be an authority on the subject".........LOL, now who's playing God ?YOU think its high time? Who made you a God? They already have a God why would they listen to what someone as obviously irrelevant as you would say? I dont mean that as a personal attack but trust me you will never be an authority on the subject.
For me no. Enlightenment through knowledge is my goal.So POWER is the goal we should all strive to achieve in our lives?
Now you are becoming delusional - were in any of my posts do I make such a arrogant claim ?Also I find it extremely offensive that you think Christianity(and to a more general extent religion) is a bad thing that should be "destroyed".
Science gives us the why's and wherefore's - everything has to work somehow. It is religion that can often give us the wide brush strokes.2. Science is a MAN MADE religion as well, we come to conclusions according to laws and measurements that were made BY MAN.
Well not really. Modern science is actualy leading toward a theory that there was a "creator" of the unverse.Science has yet to prove there is no "creator".
Strange. you seem to be ridiculing the scientific approach at one moment and then in the next asking it to give you answers.Prove to me that science can explain the creation of the universe.Laughing Out LoudComment

I do believe on Jesus Christ...Comment

He is the Son of God who is born to a virgin on the 25th of December before three shepherds. He is a prophet who offers his followers the chance to be born again through the rites of baptism. He is a wonderworker who raises the dead and miraculously turns water into wine at a marriage ceremony. He is God incarnate who dies at Easter, through crucifixion, but who resurrects on the third day. He is a savior who offers his followers redemption through partaking in a meal of bread and wine, symbolic of his body and blood.
His name? Osiris.

I know you were just funnin - but the hilarious part of all of this shit is that jesus wasnt even born in Dec - the celebration on Dec 25th was a Pagan rite based on the birthday of Mithras the Persian Sun god - the church just changed in around 300 ad
It was even outlawed in the early USA (the Puritans) to celebrate Dec 25th as "christmas" due to the pagan connotations
the whole thing makes for a nice fable and tale for those that cant handle life on their own - I guess some feeble minded people need something to hold onto to make their life worthwhile?Comment

Yes, one of the main problems religious historians have faced over the last 30 years or so is the unwillingness of the Catholic church to give them access to the material that they undoubtedly possess that could help them build an more accurate history of the life of JC.
Thankfully, ( and much to the annoyance of the church ), enought reliable sources have been found outside the church's control to enable them to allmost complete the task and in the procces nailing many of the cynical lies the church has been peddling for centuries.Laughing Out LoudComment

There's no doubt in my mind that "Yahshua" (Jesus) was an actual person. However, I definitely do not believe he was the savior of mankind or the "son of God." He was probably just some delusional megalomaniac. Hell, in the Bible it even states that some of his followers began to think he was just some crazy guy and stopped following him completely.
That being said, I doubt the bones they've supposedly found are really his. I very highly doubt that it's a scam by James Cameron to make money, though. I mean, really, come on. The guy's already rich beyond belief. The thought of him concocting this story to make a few extra bucks is laughable.Comment

I belive that there is *some* possibility that these remains are that of JC and his family but there's also some evidence to suggest that ....
A. After JC's death Mary Magdelane, ( who was undoubtedly the wife of JC ),fled to the south of France
B. JC's uncle, Joseph of Aramathea, fled to England with JC's son shortly after his death
C. The Templars found JC's remains in the middle ages and brought them back to Europe with them, ( again the south of France figures in this theory ).
So for now I belive that this find is just another possibility and untill it can be proven beyond reasonable doubt it should be treat as such.Laughing Out LoudComment

I think that Jesus existed.. I do. But I believe in those times he was blown all out of context...they figured a guy who could do more than most was something really amazing...but then in those days they probably didn't think space travel was possible.
I think Heaven is a place people fantasize about cos they are afraid that when you die there is nothing else. Nothing. Just blackness and nothingness. But hey, what the hell do I know, I haven't died yet. I could be wrong.
I believe in science though. I don't believe that when we all die we go to some amazing beautiful place called heaven. I believe we dont know anything when we die just like we dont know anything before we were even born.
Just my two cents. People want to think when we die everything is perfect and wonderful. I mean, how many believe that those suicide bombers live in paradise with Allah?Comment

I believe he was a real man just like Santa was based off of a real man. I'm not Catholic though, I do enjoy Christmas though.Regardless of what you think you are in the minority because 2000+ years later half the population on this planet believe in him in a religious context. Simply put there are many geniuses around the world with intellects far superior to any of you that believe in Jesus.
Whatever you think or believe it doesnt matter because Jesus is greater and more powerful than any of us, whether he be mere mortal or not is not the question he still shapes this planet this very day.
