Re: Atheists Should Be Registered Like Sex Offenders!

let me simply start with a disclaimer- I am not here to flame, just discuss and exchange perspective and opinion in a calm way, no yelling, inciting, or insulting, just my honest opinion, nothing is meant to be rude, so please don't take it that way.

On another note, I am an american, I was born in ohio, but have spent a few years in different american cities, though I've never left the country.

and also, I do not worship satan, I do not believe that he exists, I worship nothing, I merely try to live my one life, the only one I believe I have, as best I can.


billy bob jenkins-
how about this, I agree not to stigmatize, or generalize, or assume anything about you, and I ask that you do the same, please.

I read the quotes you posted but I differ from your "cliffnotes" of them

matthew 15:4 clearly says LET them die, not kill them.
the revelations quote doesn't say that it was to feed the birds, merely that the birds ate the flesh.
mark4:11-12 yep, thats right, I never made any claims him wanting slow people in heaven, but it sends them to hell, not to some slow people/atheist internment camp.
luke 12:47 yep, and the bible also contains instructions on how to obtain slaves, how hard to beat them, and when you can have sex with the female slaves. however, that is a whole different topic that I would rather not get into a tangent on, and I will merely say that if you support it in the literal sense that it is your prerogative and we will simply have to agree to disagree on that matter.
jesus also said many peaceful things, it was this large contradiction that lead me to atheism in the first place, but I am not ignorant of their existence.

Re: Atheists Should Be Registered Like Sex Offenders!

wow, that was a lot to read, I saw a link to this forum on facebook and was interested. I am an athiest, but I have friends from many different walks of life, and I'm Sad about what I read. If you want to follow the teachings of christ, why not strive to be more christ like in both thought and action? to turn the other cheek and let he who has not sinned cast the first stone? If america's wars in the middle east can teach us anything, let it be that we cannot force people to believe what we do, because it only galvanizes their convictions. why need athiests to be separate? all of the real world evidence shows that they are no more likely to harm you than someone of a different religion, and the bible is pretty clear that they will be punished by god, not man. Surely a follower of christ would try and offer salvation for the athiests soul, instead of subjecting them to what amounts to imprisonment/slavery in this life. and how would you not break the commandment against theft in rounding them up, surely you can't move the land they own, even taking it and paying them for it is still theft.
I hope that some of you may read this and see the hate and violence of previous posters in the forum, but I fear that instead the teaching of your own religion will be rejected for the way of thinking that's easier and more comfortable.

Dear Foreign Satan Worshiper;

Learn to speak American. No one can understand what you are trying to say. And if you're here to flame us, better take a look at THIS before making an even bigger ass out of yourself.

I will pray that the Holy Spirit enter you and chase the demons out of your rectum and let Jesus fill you with His Grace. If you use your God-given free will to reject Christ and His temporary death on the cross for my sins, then you are sending yourself to hellfire.

YIC,

You know so little about the ministry of Jesus it is ridiculous for you to lecture anybody to be more Christlike. Jesus advocated the slaying of children here:

Matthew 15:4

King James Version (KJV)

4For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.

He kills people to feed birds here:

Revelation 19:20-21

King James Version (KJV)

20And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.
21And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.

He admits He used deliberately obfuscatory language so that slow people would burn in Hell for all eternity:

Mark 4:11-12

King James Version (KJV)

11And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:
12That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them.

Jesus advocated corporal punishment for disobedient slaves.

Luke 12:47

King James Version (KJV)

47And that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes.

Jesus said a lot of things that you would be ignorant of if you haven't read the Bible.

Re: Atheists Should Be Registered Like Sex Offenders!

Well met my new and honored Christians. I was called upon by Jesus to come her and join your fight for this cause. For to long has SATAN been allowed to rule this world by the hands of atheists! Jesus came to me last night and told me that I must come join this church to fight for our Christian country. Let us rise up and toss these atheists into the abyss.

[Mary Etheldreda]

Re: Atheists Should Be Registered Like Sex Offenders!

I laughed. Out loud.

Laugh it up, chuckles. Your time will come.

The Lord shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming. (Psalm 37:13)

It is called tolerance and you people are supposed to be preaching it!

Where do you find that in the Bible?

I wont give you bible references or whatever, I know you will reply "you cant back this or that up with the bible"

Oh, it's not in the Bible. Okay.

but the bible is just a book written by men!

You thought maybe God was hunched over a writing desk? Ever heard of a guy named Moses?

For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost. (2 Peter 1:21)

I think the importance is in how people interpret it and being raised in a Catholic school I do have a pretty good idea of what your religion is about!

Sir, I was a catholic, too. I know all about the brain washing and fear-tactics they use to dupe people into believing whatever crazy thing they want people to believe. They raise the emotional fervor so high they'll believe anything. With all due respect, you can't know anything until you have the Holy Ghost alive in the bowels of your being and that cannot happen in the catholic church because a boy's bowels are otherwise occupied.

This is prejudice...simple. It is you lot talking as though you are going to start a holocaust against the atheists? (Boycotting their shops, "the final solution", avoiding them in the street, knowing if they live near) all of these things were part of being a Jew during Hitlers reign and now Christians who say their religion is peaceful and perfect and right want to do these things to others: / This is becoming less of a "Wow you guys believe in God your dumb" argument and more of a "Wow I just lost so much respect for the Christian community".

We don't care about your respect, sir. We care only for God's glory, and we shall glorify Him even as you persecute us!

Everyone here is sick and giving such a bad reputation to the other good and accepting Christian communities out there!

If they are True Christian communities then their reputation with Christ is all that matters!

Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: (Matthew 25:41)

You lot will be going to hell if there is such a thing!

No SIR! True Christians are without sin and on our way to praise God's Glorious Name FOREVER!

And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal. (Matthew 25:46)

[Rev. M. Rodimer]

Re: Atheists Should Be Registered Like Sex Offenders!

I am all for people believing what they will SO LONG as they are acceptant of others! It is called tolerance and you people are supposed to be preaching it! I wont give you bible references or whatever

I ignored the rest of that Wall of Text.

I highly doubt God specifies in the bible that men are allowed to beat their wives as doesn't he also say we are equal? Also I am sure it does not say Please go out spread hate towards disbelievers and especially atheists.

You won't give Bible references for your ridiculous claims because they aren't in the Bible. Tolerance is not in the Bible, unless you consider genocide for turning to another god tolerance (Numbers 31). So yes, it does say to spread death toward disbelievers. You probably agree that death is a bit more extreme than hate.

Also, the Bible specifically states that a man is head of his wife, just as Jesus is head of the man.

That'd mean definitely not equal.

Can I just ask another question genuinely curious, why are atheists considered the worst? Would it not be those of different beliefs because to you they are worshipping false Gods? Please answer

Because while believers in false religions can convert and come to God -- it's possible they are simply misguided or haven't learned about Jesus yet -- atheists hate God so much that they pretend He doesn't exist.

As a result, they are then free to wallow in sins, and have no moral compass. You see, morality comes from God.

So, an atheist, thinking he won't be eternally punished by God, has nothing to stop him from lying, stealing, raping, killing, or anything else. That's why the prison system is full of atheists (and Muslims).

Re: Atheists Should Be Registered Like Sex Offenders!

But the bible isn't dictated by God and there is no evidence to say it was. I know that God dictated the Ten Commandments but I have never heard anyone claim he dictated the bible too.

Are you stupid? I just posted the evidence that it was!

2 Peter 1:20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.

Again we see that every word in the Bible came from God and was not made up by people.

Re: Atheists Should Be Registered Like Sex Offenders!

Well if you do need reading glasses it is your problem. Changing the subject to my paragraphs was the change in subject, I was just answering. I know just showing that I understand, I took the 1st year Uni grade course in my 6th year of high school (I am not American so I am not sure what Grade school is?) It wasn't well meaning advice, it was irrelevant and I genuinely would say if you can't read paragraph sized comments without them being split into smaller ones it is a failing on your part. I manage just fine, so I don't see why you wouldn’t? Unless you needed glasses as I suggested.

Since it's my problem that I get a headache of your posts, let's give you some incentive. Me and my dad are going hunting two days from now, and I'll refrain from "accidentally" shooting some foxes if you add at least one enter per three sentences. Can't guaranty that the foxes that I let go won't be shot by my dad, but still.

Re: Atheists Should Be Registered Like Sex Offenders!

Why are you attacking the other atheist here? Didymus is the atheist, are you not noticing that? But it is fun to watch.

Atheists are like wild animals. They have no morals or self-control. Is it any wonder they are disproportionately unrepresented in respectable fields like politics? The reason they are so rarely sent to prison is because they use science to mastermind diabolical escape plans.

Did you know that atheists believe in mythical hybrid animals like the archeopteryx? In order to believe in evolution, you have to believe in nonsense like that.

Isn't changing the subject a symptom of lack of response?



If you keep doing the same thing, how honest is that apology?

Paragraphs are a grade school thing, not university.



Instead of taking well-meaning advice for what it is, you turn it around and imply a failing on my part. Are you always this defensive?



Yup, it's everyone else that has problems. You're just Little Miss Perfect, aintcha?

Isn't grammar something people focus in on when they have nothing to say in return or to add to a conversation?...

Isn't changing the subject a symptom of lack of response?

...I honestly don't mind what you think of my grammar. I have University grade English, I apologize if I don't use it here...

If you keep doing the same thing, how honest is that apology?

Paragraphs are a grade school thing, not university.

...If you do have trouble however, with reading fairly good size print without paragraphs I would suggest reading glasses...

Re: Atheists Should Be Registered Like Sex Offenders!

The reason people think Mary Magdalene was a prostitute is because they listen to people puffed up with their own importance who have never actually read the Bible.

The Bible is the literal dictated word of God and is not open to interpretation.

2 Timothy3:16*All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

So all this nonsense where Popes just plain make things up to coincide with their favourite urban myth matters not a jot. It's either all just made up or it's the word of God to the last comma.

So if God says we are to hate and despise atheists then that's what we must do.

But the bible isn't dictated by God and there is no evidence to say it was. I know that God dictated the Ten Commandments but I have never heard anyone claim he dictated the bible too. From anyone I have ever heard speak of it, it was that the Bible was written after the coming of Jesus by witnesses at the time. I doubt it was a dictation; God wouldn't speak in the third person if he was writing a book to his people would he? Ehh actually there are hundreds and hundreds of different Christian branches, each because they can't agree on the interpretation of the bible. The Protestant branch was famously created by King Henry (can't remember his number but he had a lot of wives?) who disagreed with the Pope over divorce and so he set up his own church to divorce his wives. So every branch of Christianity is an interpretation, your branch just accepts everything literally and as law.

Re: Atheists Should Be Registered Like Sex Offenders!

You are preaching the tolerance but are not seeming to display tolerance for the fine Christians of Landover who are simply following what God is saying in the Bible. Nothing more, nothing less. You appear to be the intolerant one here.

Fair enough I will admit I am being hypocritical in some ways, but I highly doubt God specifies in the bible that men are allowed to beat their wives as doesn't he also say we are equal? Also I am sure it does not say Please go out spread hate towards disbelievers and especially atheists infact attempt to repeat the holocaust with them. Since that had not occurred then I doubt it was in the bible. I don't disagree or object to your religion but to your extremist attitude I object highly. Why are you against living in peace with others of different beliefs? Can I just ask another question genuinely curious, why are atheists considered the worst? Would it not be those of different beliefs because to you they are worshipping false Gods? Please answer
