have you read the bible? that's tame.

"if someone annoys you in your "lair" torture them brutally" or "if somebody bothers you, tell them to stop. if they do not, murder them."

because it doesnt

what are you talking about?

jesus forget
I guess I could see like some of them but i mean the religion is urging them to murder/"destroy" anyone who bothers them.
like what the actual forget
the bible mentions rape, murder, pillage, slavery, ritual sacrifice (that's a big one right there), and much more

that's kinda tame compared to the bible

It never tells you to torture or murder someone.

Edit: Oh and to clarify stuff: I'm not really a Satanist but I'll back up any religion where being self absorbed or stupid is a sin.

it tells you to scoop their eyeballs out and chop their ears off though

i never said it did, also, you're paraphrasing, again. i said that compared to some sections of the bible, destroying someone for bothering you when you've explicitly said stop is actually really tame.

Some people find it relaxing you know.

cross out all other options until there's one option left.
A lot of science has been proven, none of religion has been proven. Like I said, religion was created to explain the unexplainable. Our brains do this naturally. Our brains make sense of things that we don't understand. For example, you probably can think of an event that happened to you when you were a small child. Most of the details that you think are true are completely false. This is because over time your brain has lost information about the event, so when you recall the event, your brain has to fill in the parts that have been lost so the event makes sense to you. The fill-ins are almost never correct.

Religion is a fill-in.

what the forget are you talking about I don't understand you people why is murdering someone tame?

ok go back and read what crunk posted

and you do realize that no christian has done that stuff for hundreds or thousands of years

because most people have empathy and reason nowadays

Does it say those are good things that you should do?

see, i'd love to make a logical rebuttal to what you said, but you flatout interpreted what i said in whatever way you wanted, so i'll leave it to someone else.

ok i actually wrote that really wrong, but you didn't actually say that the first time. I meant that destroying someone is not tame at all, and those are apparently still rules that satanists follow. even if the bible apparently has even worse things in it, times have changed drastically and no christian in their right mind would do any of it.
Does it say those are good things that you should do?
even if it is they are pretty much saying "well it's in the bible so obviously christians still do it!"

Oh, Sunday. Anyone go to church?

mudkips
i win everything.

I'm Methodist so... yeah basically Christian.
