Old Testament God was a real bad ass. I guess he mellowed out a bit in his old age.

I AM of the old Covenant was a jealous, sadistic bastard. Over and over, he commanded or condoned the deaths of tens, hundreds, thousands, ten-thousands... also the odd rape, etc.
What always gives Christian apologists the out, is that the Son of Man was a righteous dude, and His message was one of ultimate tolerance... about the most violent he got, was his prediction that his message would turn brother against brother - "I come bearing not peace but a Sword" - as far as folks being unable to accept the new covenant... |

What do you need my justification for? What did the bible say was God's justification?

What happens is, SeaFive continues to bait and switch, switch and bait, circle, circle, circle around, posting from his Invincible Iron Tower of Ignorance, until we give up and stop posting in the thread - whereupon he declares he's "won". And his sycophants, brethren in ignorance, slap him on the back and give each other handjobs in glee, having driven off those nasty heathens once again! |

It is sick, pure evil, abhorrent and a complete abomination. Anyone who can't understand that is a blind follower of Christianity. |

Actually, thats really only true of the western religions; Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Most, if not all of the Eastern religions (Hindism, Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, Shinto) are completely accepting of other faiths as they themselves worhsip many gods and deities. Guess they're hedging their bets ... Quote:
Of course, with religion it's quite a different story. Most of the important religious tenents require "faith" not proof. An exponentially harder thing to form an opinion on. I'm no bible scholar and I'm not even convinced of my own religious beliefs, but this one bible verse from Matthew 6.1-4 has resonnated with me for years. It seems more appropriate than ever these days: “Beware of practicing your righteousness before other people in order to be seen by them, for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven. Thus, when you give to the needy, sound no trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets that they may be praised by others" |

"Woe to you, teachers of the Law and Pharisees - you hypocrites! For a pretense you make your phylacteries wide, your tassels long, and make loud prayers in public places... you tie up heavy burdens to place on a man's shoulders but lift not one finger to help him... you travel across seas and over land to win a single convert, and when you have him you make of him twice the son of Hell you are... you are like whitewashed tombs, on the outside bright and clean but inside, full of rubbish and dead men's bones and everything unclean! O woe to you!" |

Your niece is a Christian. You, obviously, are not. If you believe in something, there are black and white lines. Therefore, as a Christian, if you do not accept Jesus Christ as your savior, you go to hell, not heaven.
Might be good for you to listen to her...she is already WAY smarter than you. |
