Re: 8 Reasons why God hates New Zealand!
Well......what an eye opening experience this all was. To be honest I started reading the posts and laughed my arse off....right up until I realised that this isnt a joke site with a fake Christian theme to poke fun at zealots, small minded idiots and the general hate that modern Christianity seems to swim so deeply in, I realised it -was- a site for zealots, idiots and small minded fools to post their hate and somewhat stupid ideals.
I kept reading through the pages to see if any "actual" Christians might have joined the fray with words of wisdom and love that the Bible provides us with, instead I was met with even more cringe worthy responses from the common US proxy Christians who have little titles like, "True Christian" and a myriad of other baseless self labeled ranks.
The subject turned away from the badly researched points (which I am still sure must be a joke) and landed on military strength. Sorry, the idea that a countries moral standing is directly decided by military strength is too much of an American ideal for me to understand, guess all that education really blinded me to the "truth".
Big mention to the addition of nuclear weapons to the argument.....nice.
I kept reading on, I mean come on, surely a Christian forum would have even a slight sliver of Christianity...right?..........right?!?.....
Alas I was wrong, just more nuggets of mindless dribble provided from a people who think an ancient religion born in the middle east was created exclusively for red necks and zealots in preparation for our current era.
Every time a valid point is raised its ignored a response and given a lame joke or trollish stab to avoid any real conversation.
Maybe as a proud kiwi and Maori I find the idea that a bunch of morally corrupt racist extremists on an ego trip, rather insulting.
I mean only a people who would think their country is, "Gods Country", when its built on rape murder and the destruction of culture and history, could ever really provide such epic double standards on which to base some sort of moral and spiritual soapbox garbage.
I stopped going to church
I read the bible and decoded what I thought it was trying to tell us through the bias words of men disguised as saints and came to a real understanding
I studied the words of Islam, Buddhism, Bahai, Shintoism and many others to see the world for its many teachings.
I stopped telling lies like, Easter is Jesus's resurrection, or, Christmas was his birthday, because honestly who -doesnt- know they were Pagan holy days that Christians tried to replace.
I started to see the difference between zealots and real Christians, the later being nearly extinct today, and stopped telling people what they should believe in.
I started to appreciate all races, cultures, sexual preference and religion for the beauty they could bring to me and others and stopped avoiding those who did not share my views or faith, as who the hell am I to tell someone they are wrong with no proof other than words written by men?
After all that I am 100% more of a Christian than many of the people here it seems and I am so far outside the supposed guidelines, weird.
Sorry to any normal and educated Americans who may take offence, this is more directed at the few crazies and early mornin money begging fear merchants who sorta ruin the face of your faith and general population.
