Also what would you do, if after you die you are allowed to go to heaven because before anything else, you were a good person, but there is a problem, Christianity was wrong and the right religion was Buddhism, Buddha the true god tells you that you can go to heaven, but first you must acknowledge him as the true god or he can't save you.

Would you do it? or would you rather go to hell?

That is so funny from the point of view of a Buddhist. 😆 Buddha would tell them that they are responsible for the heaven or hell that is in their lives.

anyway, I don't support it, I just think is a good way to make people think for a little and search if their claims are true... to with after a little while you will see they exaggerate, but most of their claims have valid points (The best lies are the Half Truths).

Except that most people who watch it don't take the time to learn anything about what they say and treat it as absolute fact. ("gospel" if you will)

Also you seem to know with one is my religion, I would like to ask you with one it is, since you seem so sure of yourself.

Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster most likely. Maybe Voodoo?

Modern Christianity may not be the same as Middle ages Christianity, but is pretty damn close, still closed to other beliefs labeling anything that is too different as Heresy, always thinking that others must be saved because they are wrong

If you seriously think that Christianity now and in the Middle Ages are highly similar you've managed to completely delude yourself for no apparent reason.

what the heck is so special about Christianity... what makes them believe everyone else is wrong and they are the only ones that are right? (the same applies to most religions), wth maybe the right one is Islam, or the Mormons... or Scientology... so care to elaborate why Christians are right and everyone else is wrong?

THAT is what I dislike

I don't even believe in God you idiot I just don't like irrational knee jerk reaction by small minded children who have convinced themselves they somehow know anything meaningful.

I have to say I'd be very surprised if I died and God turned out to be real and also be a person who didn't profess any belief in a physically seperate Heaven, Hell or God. That would be pretty weird, really.

I suppose I'd have to ask him why he never his divinity apparent. I'd than thank him for his tolerant beliefs and acknowledge him as God considering I'm dead and it seems in your scenario he seems to have had a way of proving that he's really God.

Also, why would Christianity being wrong be a problem for me more than say anything I actually believe being inaccurate?

Hello hypothetical question >_>

I never said they are the same, but there are certain traits that remain unchanged... just look at all the priest that keep saying Evolution is a work of the devil... pfff (and I am not just talking about Rednecks right wingers)

Hello? Religion Forum, I never expected to find a person that doesn't believe in anything in a Religion Forum -_- are you one of those sad forum trolls that check all the new post just to see if they can flame someone?

I mistook you by one of those close minded jerks that take religion to the extreme... I was having a discussion with 2 of them at my university and when they could no longer counter attack my statements/arguments they just ran away and said I was not ready to embrace the lord... with let me quite pissed and I came here to blow some steam... sorry I guess I just decided to pick the fight where I let it with them 😮

Oh well all of you have a good night.

Er, I'm not a nihilist. I am a *******, though 🙂

It's not a forum for religious people, btw, it's a forum for discussion on religion.

Happens to everyone (but not me) from time to time. It's just that we get a quite a few people who express or hold strongly negative views on religion with varying levels of validity. It usually is a reaction to the people here (in the minority actually) who are closeminded fundie evangelists.

Sorry for insulting you it was a, uh *cough* kneejerk reaction that I have to what I see as unfair criticism of people's beliefs.

Soon, all will bow down before the almighty Sterculius, the great Roman god of feces...

Also, it's interesting that someone referred to Cortes as a "white-skinned man-god". That's a generalization of native Europeans, given that Spaniards are extremely swarthy due to centuries of being raped by Arabs, and southern Europeans in general are hardly "Nordic".

It would be so awesome if there was a place where people like you could be eternally tortured in suitably ironic ways.

its not like what he said isnt true or completely inaccurrate.

if anything the spaniard repeated the ugly cycle of raping those they conquered.

Who are you to mutilate the English language like that? Also, you might want to go read the last few posts and note my views on religion before jumping to stupid conclusions.

Spaniards look the way they due entirely because they spent centuries being raped by Arabs? I like to see even the most remote evidence of that.

i may have to retake some world history but didnt the persians conquer and rule that part of the world at one time?

either way i just think you dont like the words he chose to use, i am pretty positive that raping was involved as part of the conquest of the ppl as well as simply mixing races by chose.
