Can you handle the Truth?

Pathetic. How can you even try to argue with Mister Jesus Lives? I'd call him a fanatic to state the least. Well of course there are different forms of believing in God and Jesus?! And no Christian should judge the other forms of belief wrong or right. You were at least slightly realistic, JIA, concerning the bible to be a book written down by men. What do you think, the book is a bunch of 6000 - 2000 year old stories, translated into different languages a hundred times, always changed a little bit through the "feeling" of the time for the right way to formulate the content. Don't you think that humans are kind of unreliable carriers for the word of the Lord? How can God be so stupid and hand his message to some guy and then letting all humanity rely on the wisdom of that one man, living before school was invented?
Certainly, every word of the bible is a source of impeccable knowledge about someone sitting on his cloud, and there is absolutely no reason to believe it might be a little influenced by the author's feeling for what he's inventing right now.

Sorry, pals. I'm not sure if I'd want to argue with people whose entire personality has been exchanged by some thousand year old fables, and who are willing to call their brainwash "rebirth".

Edit: And please, please.. Don't tell me I'm a sinner and I misunderstand the word of God and I will burn in hell. I know. I know.

Humans are not carriers of God's Word.

The 66 books of the Bible were not written by one man, they were written by 40 different authors over a period of 1600 years.

Okay, I won't, I promise (sike).

does that 1600 years start at 0 BC?

No, it starts in 1500 AD and ends in 100 AD.

JIA the bible is the word of god in the same way that a playboy book is the word of god. They were both writen by men about gifts from god. 😆

Well, of course humans are the carriers of God's word, or did Jesus himself bring the Bible to English language? And I don't care how many there have been to have been writing it, of course there was more than one person mentioned.. But that doesn't make any difference, it's still a fact humans wrote it down and basically every wacko who thought God was talking to him and that he was a prophet was able to write a book which might have ended up in the bible after some time.

Of course, we all know that the New Testament has been puzzled together of single transcriptions about Joshuas life by a committee which convened between 200 and 300 AD (I'm not sure), and the criterions to be put into "the bible" were if the gospels would conform to the churches' dominant opinions. I'm sure god himself told them which ones. Just like he tells the guys from Vatican who should be the new pope.

Yep I can handle it, ive been close to it, felt the perfection the wholeness with the one and I crave for it.

Of course the word "truth" doesn't mean truth in this case unless you agree with JIA.

It's another one of those, if you are not with us, you are wrong, things.

that reminds me of the Nazis. 😐

I think the Nazis were Christian. I know they were not Buddhist.

No, no.. the Nazis were in conflict with church. They tried to create a new religion based on ancient Germanic traditions, hence the swastika and all these runes and stuff.

Doesn't make too much a difference after all.

I know that the Neo Nazis are Christians. I saw a show on them.

Well, i'm talking old-school 😛

But you are right about neo-nazis. They are no real nazis anyway.

I'm glad about that, but they still scare the shit out of me. 😱

I think we need a sub-sub-forum.
May it be called "Fanatics" or "I'm really desperate to tell you my opinion"..
"Preaching forum" would be alright, too.

edit: note the "23 minutes in hell" and somewhere down there "90 minutes in heaven".. 😑
