Oh jeez. Marx wrote extensively about the french revolution and how great it was, and how it was the first class revolution, which he modeled all...
This just simply isn't true. Atheist societies lived within many different religious societies peacefully, for thousands of years. Further,...
God chose them. Certainly God would have chosen those who would desire to do His will, whom He could bestow knowledge to, the knowledge they want...
They were inspired by the holy spirit, given power not only to speak, but to do so in different languages.
You have over 12 and a half THOUSAND posts on this political forum, which I'm sure the Lions share are in the religious sub forum. Your very...
So any belief outside of "there is a God" automatically entails coercion. Any logic to substantiate your conclusion, or just a general disdain of...
Organized religion, perhaps.
Countries that wish to control their people outlaw religion. As long as people are free to choose to believe what they want to believe, it isn't...
I'm not jewish, Christianity doesn't command killing of anyone, not destroying any artifacts. Praying not to be seen by others doesn't mean in a...
IF eternal life is "the best deal", then I suppose so. No negotiations are necessary, though. All one must do is follow God.
Ugh. God comes to Earth to save humanity, tempted by satan, ministered to by angels, through whom all things came to be, through whom all can be...
I responded to your thought experiment, from a wider standpoint for saying something one believes to be true vs not. The wider approach and point...
I'm not going to extend you the courtesy of acknowledging this "nuance" because it wasn't afforded to me. When I explained that truth as fact...

Ah I see now. Me on a hypothetical island should keep my immoral opinions to myself. You in the world have an obligation to make sure no one...
You believe that people shouldn't challenge beliefs they can't disprove, as long as those beliefs are peaceful, which would make you a hypocrite....
You know, you aren't convincing anyone here that isn't already convinced. And, if you stop for a second, and look around, no one is trying to...
Finished my nap, and it appears two people have answered Freedom's question for me. The Bible isn't a political book. It's a religious book.
What I never understand about these conversations is that the very worst cross section of one religion is applied to the very best cross section...
Who are you trying to convince here? I'm a Christian, and am just shrugging your stuff off... so... where are you going with all of this? What's...
Yes we get it, you hate Christianity. You're a special snowflake, exactly like almost everyone else on this forum.
Saying that Jesus accepted "totalitarian political schemes" is one hell of a stretch. Some people would do anything... ANYTHING... to speak...
You are conflating violence with religious belief. More people have been killed in the name of marxist revolution than were ever killed because...
I simply said that Christianity isn't science, and then you compared Jesus to a chimpanzee. Can't make this stuff up.
This is the perfect post. You demonstrate the intolerance of atheists. I won't report this blatent breaking of rules because I want your post to...
