Conservative Bible

[presonorek]

They aren't your words, but you chose to quote them, and I'm questioning your motive in doing it. So you can either sack up and actually explain the point you were trying to make by citing this quote, or you can puss out and say, "Just figure out for yourself how right I am". Of course, that is the same thing as saying, "I'm completely full of crap, and you should spit on me and ignore me as not worth your time."

So it's entirely up to you whether or not you relegate yourself to board joke. I guess we'll see your choice in your next post.

My words are destructable. The words of the Bible are indestructible.

Christians once said the Bible said interracial marriage and being gay were sins. What do you mean the words are indestructible? How so?

The Bible does not say interracial marriage is a sin and never did. The Bible has always said the homosexuality is a sin and still does.

This is really Bible 101.

Not according to other Christians especially in the 1960s.

Here’s an example. When Republican president Richard Nixon defended abortion he said there are times when its necessary. The example he used was for example if a white woman gets pregnant from a black man.

I’m sure you can find a verse in the Bible that can be interpreted to fit the narrative.

Can you guess who defines Christianity? Hint: it ain't "Christians"

How many guesses do we get?

I thought early Christians were called, "Followers of the Way". I thought Christian was a derogatory term.

How come Christians don’t name their kids Jesus like Muslims name their kids Mohammad? Not proud? Sure you name your kids peter Paul Mary and Luke but not the man himself?

Pop quiz!

What was the way 'Followers of the Way' followed??

What does 'the way' refer to? How does one follow it?

the FSM

What do you know about the FSM?

Flying Spaghetti Monster.

Atheists like to pretend it is just as plausible as a creator of space and time. It isn’t.

there's no such thing as an atheist because you cannot NOT believe in something that is not there

Atheists believe in humanity and it's infinite possibilities. Some call it humanism.

By definition that's a contradiction. Humanity does not have "infinite possibilities". Right now we can't make it much past 110 years. Right now we can't make it even to Mars.

Christianity believes you go live in the sky for eternity. Are you actually looking for rationality in a human belief system? I happen to believe humanity has doomed itself to extinction but more optimistic people have seen that any technological thing we can imagine will eventually come to pass.

I'm not sure about in the sky. Could be in a part of the space-time continuum we can't recognize yet. That seems exceedingly likely to me, indeed.

It does not matter, as far as this world is concerned there is no life after death. We can imagine all sorts of spiritual scenarios to comfort ourselves but as far as anyone knows for certain death is the end. Religion offers us consolation that our deceased loved ones still exist in some form and that we will see them again.

Belief is far more than loved ones still exist....far far more

 

[Cecilie1200]

Overstatement. A vast overstatement at that.

I'm a Conservative but I recognize that Jesus transcends politics--thank God for that. I do everyday. And if you think Social Justice Jesus is any better than RW Jesus, you're fooling yourself.

A big problem with Social Justice Jesus is that it makes Christianity and God secondary, just a means to an end. God will not accept being used as a tool to accomplish something more important; He will not accept something else being more important.

"Thou shalt have no other gods before me." - Exodus 20:3

Putting God first is just the high-sounding euphemism for accepting the often flawed moral judgements of clergy. I read the words of Jesus and hear that how we treat the weak, the sick, and the down-trodden defines us as moral people rather than how obedient we are to the preacher.

Of course. What the words do is place that moral attitude strictly within the venue of individual conscience, and not in the hands of government policy, no matter how well-meaning.

Again I am puzzled by someone who apparently does not want the government to respect or reflect the gentle values they supposedly hold dear.

Why puzzled? Again, it's a matter of individual conscience. The federal government has no mandate to involve itself with charity, nor a right to decide that individuals must by statute transfer their wealth to another individual. That is simply theft.

True. If someone mugs me, steals all my money, and then gives it all to a homeless shelter, it's STILL wrong for them to have robbed me.

 

[Cecilie1200]

the bible is fairytale crap--worthless

Can't imagine why you thought you just HAD to come in here and share that. No one asked you, and now that you've felt compelling to waste our time telling us anyway, no one cares.

Believe it or not, it's completely possible for you to just go on your merry way and allow people to discuss religion without your valueless "contribution".

 

[Cecilie1200]

I just explained it to you.

then it is really nothing but another book

The facts say otherwise.

o, you really explained it alright
hahahahahah

Do you know the FSM?

please explain it to me--I'm so ignorant

No, you're stupid. Ignorance is just not knowing things. Stupid is not knowing things, believing you DO know something, and being proud of it.

Wrong. Look at yourself. If you just didn't believe, you wouldn't pay any attention to other people believing it. You, on the other hand, are going out of your way to try to evangelize your lack of belief and to attack people who believe. That goes beyond simple disbelief into actively believing against it.

Seems like a waste of energy to me, but clearly, you have issues.

 

[harmonica]

You can't be. You never took the oath.

Here's your oath.

Socialism intentionally denies examination because it is irrational. There is no formal defined dogma of socialism. Instead there is only a vague, rosy notion of something good, noble and just: the advent of these things will bring instant euphoria and a social order beyond reproach. Socialism seeks equality through uniformity and communal ownership Socialism has an extraordinary ability to incite and inflame its adherents and inspire social movements. Socialists dismiss their defeats and ignore their incongruities. They desire big government and use big government to implement their morally relativistic social policies. Socialism is a religion. The religious nature of socialism explains their hostility towards traditional religions which is that of one rival religion over another. Their dogma is based on materialism, primitive instincts, atheism and the deification of man. They see no distinction between good and evil, no morality or any other kind of value, save pleasure. They practice moral relativity, indiscriminate indiscriminateness, multiculturalism, cultural Marxism and normalization of deviance. They worship science but are the first to reject it when it suits their purposes. They can be identified by an external locus of control. Their religious doctrine is abolition of private property, abolition of family, abolition of religion and equality via uniformity and communal ownership. They practice critical theory which is the Cultural Marxist theory to criticize what they do not believe to arrive at what they do believe without ever having to examine what they believe. They confuse critical theory for critical thinking. Critical thinking is the practice of challenging what one does believe to test its validity. Something they never do.

did to
ahahahhahahaha
just like a ''christian'' condemning others while they:
TORTURE
condemn people for believing the Earth is NOT the center of the universe
raping/molesting kids
etc etc

= HYPOCRITE

You are worse than a hypocrite. You are a subversive.

I'd rather be a subversive than a hypocrite that believes in fairy tales/sky fairy /etc
so you hate people who don't believe .....??!!!!

Luckily for you you are both. Subversives usually are.

at least I'm not a sinner like you

No. You did not. You never took the oath. You admitted it.

separation of church/state--sorry

[
Do I have to say “So Help Me God” during my enlistment/officer oath?
No. This is a common question with a simple answer. Simply ask the officer administering the oath to say “affirm” rather than “swear” and to omit the “So Help Me God” at the end

For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat. 2 Thessalonians 3:10

To my knowledge this is the only verse of the Bible ever quoted by conservatives.

There are 17 other verses in Chapter 3 of Thessalonians. Are they relevant?

There are 23,144 other verses in the Bible. Are they relevant?

How can people continue to pretend that the Bible doesn't promote left wing principles? The Bible is way more consistent with liberal political thought than with conservative politic thought. Does anybody get it?

I love the part of the bible where it says "God helps those that help themselves". With liberals they want Government to help them because they are too stupid to use God's given gifts..

Could you imagine red states without blue state support? They are already economic basketcases. But they would be centers of starvation at the level with Biafra and other places in the world where people can’t take care of themselves without blue state freebies.
