Re: 7 reasons why God hates Estonia

I have nothing against people who follow religion till they don't bother me.

Hello, and welcome to our friendly forums! If Freedom of Speech and the free Expression of Religious Beliefs bothers you, you can simply turn off your computer, get up off your seat, and take a walk outside. Note God's glorious creation! It will do you good!

Religion was good at first. It united people. But later, when some religions got more followers then they started to slaving the mankind. All the education/science was abandoned, people were murdered without any good reason, wars broke out, lying ...
Why was it needed?

Because mankind is a slave by nature. We are born slaves to sin. The good news is that we can choose to be slaves to Christ! The thing is, dear, there is no freedom for those who want to be slaves, so we work to break through the blinders, to show them that there IS freedom in being a slave to Christ! There is Righteousness! And that is the ultimate freedom - freedom from an eternity of God's Merciful Justice for Sinners: The LAKE OF FIRE (Revelation 20:14-15)!

Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.
Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.
Romans 6:16-18

Please explain how a discussion on a private internet forum "bothers" anyone outside the membership of that forum. Nobody forced you to come here to be "bothered". You are free to close your browser and walk away at any time.

@Alphonse Alban
What makes you think that I am not smart?
And do you know what a FACT is?

You complain about insults and then you insult people. When you are pointed your hypocrisy, you don't even get it. After that you go on about facts, and back up your "facts" with opinions. Then you ask us what makes us thinking that you are not smart.

Please, try to use your brain for once.

Re: 7 reasons why God hates Estonia

You surely don't know the difference between true facts and imaginary stories. There's a huge difference between a fact and an insult that is not true at all. And that bothers me, because why the hell (is this phrase allowed on this forum?) do you have to say lies about other nationalities .....

So according to you it is a fact that everyone who believes in the Holy Bible is, to use your own words, "brainwashed/badly educated/mentally ill"?

Why all this hate? What did religious people ever do to you to make you so extremely hateful?

[Alphonse Alban]

Re: 7 reasons why God hates Estonia

These are not even facts.

God is a fact. These are opinions.

People who still believe that the Bible has 100% true facts must be brainwashed/badly educated/mentally ill.

You are not very smart, are you.

Re: 7 reasons why God hates Estonia

Is this forum a joke? ...

I initially considered this as well, but after some exploring around (which at first was amusing but made me increasingly sad), it seems that the users of this forum are indeed sincere.

It's their forum, though, and we can't do anything about it. If they choose to believe in the things they do and hold the morals they do, they're allowed to do so. We live in an era of information and technology, and everyone in the 1st and 2nd world countries have access to enough education to have a healthy world-view. Ignorance is no longer a curse, it's a choice. These people seemed to have made their choice.

A sense of community offers confidence and creates a positive-feedback mechanism that keeps communities like this one alive. As long as they're not hurting anyone (some people here do have quite violent thoughts against others, though), then they just exist and that's it. The rest of the world, including Estonia, goes on, fortunately.

Re: 7 reasons why God hates Estonia

I can't read your mind, could you explain me what did you mean by that?

I would put it like this:

1. You insult people who believe in the Bible, i.e. us, calling us "brainwashed/badly educated/mentally ill".

2. You then say it is not nice to insult other people.

This is illogical.

You would probably put it more offensively.

She was pointing out the irony of you complaining about us insulting people, while you were in the process of insulting us.

Try and keep up, huh?

Re: 7 reasons why God hates Estonia

Not just the earth. Everything you see, earth, plants, animals, the whole universe was created in six days little over 6000 years ago.

These are not even facts.

We are living in 21st century. People who still believe that the Bible has 100% true facts must be brainwashed/badly educated/mentally ill. This madness must be ended.

Also, it is not nice to insult other people. You don't have to insult people who live in other countries and who follow other traditions.

Re: 7 reasons why God hates Estonia

Earth is only 6000 years old

Re: 7 reasons why God hates Estonia

Is this forum a joke? Firstly I thought that people are just making jokes about that the Earth is flat and that the Earth is only 6000 years old or that humans are some non-animal beings?


Also, I want to know if you hate Estonia or you hate people who don't follow the "true" religion?
