A question to christheads (yay reli-war)

Be careful, the last person that insulted me got banned for being an idiot!

You realize that you have your own drama topic dedicated to people that you so choose to drama, so you "Don't spam up the drama board".

You should learn to relax.

Why didn't god just make people not eat the apple, or make them better?
Why didn't he just make people naturally better towards each other and him then?
He made flawed people, that would mean he is flawed.

No it doesn't. He wanted to give people free will.

And your point is?

I'm full of bad mojo and if my eyebrows flex into an anger-like position people get hurt

I can make mine go into a suave position and get myself maced :D

Except Christmas isn't Jesus's Birthday, it's the Winter Solstice.
You can thank christards for being uninformed that their religion is an amalgamation of assimilated beliefs.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winter_solstice

I know it isn't Jesus's birthday, and I know the origins of it's chosen date. A commemoration, really, created as a rather minor holiday. Many early Christians didn't even believe in celebrating Christmas (It didn't even exist for several hundred years after Christianity was established), and even some today still don't.

Regardless, Christmas is certainly a good example of a sharing of cultures - as it should, of course, stay (As you stated). Whether the culture be religious or secular, Eastern or Western, or whatever so else may stand - bringing about those ideas of selflessness, generosity, and Love that we should exhibit not just during the season, but all year 'round. c:

I saw this the other day and it made me think. What if my religion is bullstuff. So I brooded over these supposed "faults" and "theories" that went against God.

Then I thought, "What can I do?"

Then it dawned on me that there is nothing I can do. I have no loving idea whether or not there is a God. There either is or isn't. I can't control that outcome. So, I believe in God, although I acknowledge the possibility of this being complete bullstuff.

If it's something I can't control there is no point in worrying over it. So I choose to be optimistic and believe while knowing when I die, that there may be nothing. What then? Nothing, there is not a damn thing I can do.

Btw here's the video. This is not for the overly obsessive/faint of heart theist. It's arranged into three parts. Enjoy!

Holy stuff, the Bible supports rape/pillaging/murder?

and the stoning of women and killing of children.

[Solid]

That's pretty much agnosticism bro.

and the stoning of women and killing of children.

Isn't that the Qur'an?

[Mr.Interceptor]

Isn't that the Qur'an?

In the Qu'ran stoning is a punishment placed upon a married person who committed illegal loveual intercourse. Where an unmarried person who did the same thing would receive X number of lashes.
