Re: God Hates Iceland!

I am pretty sure that God doesnt hate Iceland as much as he hates the most other European countries, cause porn, prostitutes and strip clubs are banned in Iceland, such crimes are punshable by a maximum 2 years prison sentence in that country, while 2 years is not enough for such serious crimes its still a good start i would say.

Re: God Hates Iceland!

Question Number 2:
How do you reconcile your actions towards other people, when Jesus himself said in Matthew 5:43-48 (King James Version)

"Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and the unjust. For if ye love them which love you, which reward have ye? Do not even the publicans the same? And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? Do not even the publicans so? Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect."

I am not following you on this question - we do not attack or curse IRS workers. Many of support Micheal Bachmman, a former lawyer for the IRS. I fail to see we were are disobeying Jesus teachings on publicans.

Re: God Hates Iceland!

Full disclosure: I am a Pentecostal Christian.

Why can't you people sit still in your damned pews like everyone else?

I would like to know how you reconcile your beliefs about other faiths, denominations of Christianity, and other races. Especially when Jesus himself says in Matthew 5:3-9 (King James Version)

"Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God."

That verse has nothing to do with race. These do:

Deuteronomy 7:3-4
3Neither shalt thou make marriages with them; thy daughter thou shalt not give unto his son, nor his daughter shalt thou take unto thy son.
4For they will turn away thy son from following me, that they may serve other gods: so will the anger of the LORD be kindled against you, and destroy thee suddenly.


Acts 17:26
King James Version (KJV)
26And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;


Numbers 12:1
1And Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married: for he had married an Ethiopian woman.


Deuteronomy 7:3
3Neither shalt thou make marriages with them; thy daughter thou shalt not give unto his son, nor his daughter shalt thou take unto thy son.


Numbers 25:6-8
6And, behold, one of the children of Israel came and brought unto his brethren a Midianitish woman in the sight of Moses, and in the sight of all the congregation of the children of Israel, who were weeping before the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
7And when Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose up from among the congregation, and took a javelin in his hand;
8And he went after the man of Israel into the tent, and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through her belly. So the plague was stayed from the children of Israel.


Leviticus 19:19
19Ye shall keep my statutes. Thou shalt not let thy cattle gender with a diverse kind: thou shalt not sow thy field with mingled seed: neither shall a garment mingled of linen and woollen come upon thee.


Nehemiah 13:3
3Now it came to pass, when they had heard the law, that they separated from Israel all the mixed multitude.


Deuteronomy 32:8
8When the Most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel.


1 Peter 2:9
9But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;


Ephesians 6:5
5Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ;


1 Peter 2:18
18Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the froward.

These verses have to do with other faiths:

2nd Corinthians 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

2 Chronicles 15:13
Whosoever would not seek the LORD God of Israel should be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.

Question Number 2:
How do you reconcile your actions towards other people, when Jesus himself said in Matthew 5:43-48 (King James Version)

"Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and the unjust. For if ye love them which love you, which reward have ye? Do not even the publicans the same? And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? Do not even the publicans so? Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect."

I'm not sure which actions specifically you are referring to, but when I forcibly amputate appendages from members of my own family, I only do it because the Bible commands me to:

Mark 9:43-47
43 And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:
45 And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:
47 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire:


Matthew 19:12 (King James Version) 12For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.

Just for clarification, I am using the definition of Love as appears in 1 Corinthians 13:4-5 (King James Version)

"Love suffereth long, and is kind; love envieth not; love vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil..."

I am sorry if anyone becomes offended by anything I have written, I only wish to understand your opinions.

Thank you for your time.

The only reason I am offended is because you are clearly a Biblical cherry picker. I wish you would accept the rest of God's word, and not just the parts that are convenient for your modern, secular value system.

Re: God Hates Iceland!

1 Corinthians 13:4-5 4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, 5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;


There really is something wrong with your Bible.

Re: God Hates Iceland!

Bible was written about 300 years after Jesus by couple of drunken bald priests. Of course Bible is myth. Bible was written to tell us to love everybody and make peace, not war. That why Jesus 'die'.

Of course you are right. How foolish of God not to know better than some bitter hellbound kiddie. You were there, of course, witnessing this total fiction, right.
Of course you weren't so if it's all the same to you we'll just stick to the actual evidence.

[O'Lemon]

Re: God Hates Iceland!

So tell me, oh wise one, which bits are literal and which are metaphor?

You might as well say God is just a fairy tale. This is obviously not true because we have the Bible to tell us of all the amazing things God has done since He made the world. I suppose all of that isn't real either.

You can't take Bible literally. Bible is full of metaphor and if you take that literally- Y R STUPID.

Re: God Hates Iceland!

How can you guys call yourselves Christians? I've read the Bible and Let Jesus into my heart, And I'm pretty sure the Bible has one reoccuring message and that is that because our Father and our Savior Jesus Christ do not hate, but Love every living being on earth. Because of this we as loyal followers of Christ should do our best to extend Love and Peace to all peoples of the earth because only through love and peace will the non believers one day come to the Lord.

Matthew 10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

Erm... that would be God.

You're entitled to your opinion, whether or not it sends you to Hell, but please don't lie about the Bible.

Re: God Hates Iceland!

You Christians seem very racist, bitter and immature, I myself am from Iceland and I live a happy life without any religion, you've shown me that Christians are indeed mean and bad people and create problems in life.
I think it's more likely that you Christians will go to hell by making people think that your god is an evil god. I guess you people are scared of death and seek life after death, and no matter how many times atheists and other religious people prove you wrong, you keep on being ignorant and complete douchebags to anyone who doesn't believe in an invisible man in the clouds like you do.
also, I don't get easily fooled, if you believe in god, you could as well believe in anything, such as an invisible pink unicorn, I wouldn't be able to prove that doesn't exist, same goes for your god.

None of that is true and if you must know, your words have cut me soul, very deeply. How can you be so cruel. You do not know me, we have never met yet you insist of spewing such words of hate, in from Of Jesus. You know, He died for your sins. How dare you disrespect Him. I suppose it is just typical behavior from a half breed icehearted eskimoe but still, the words hurt.

So you admit you Can't prove God doesn't exist. Game. Set. Match.

Now go away, little boy.
