I do find it embarrassing the way I see fellow Christians treat those of another religion or atheists at times.I do find it embarrassing the way I see fellow Christians treat those of another religion or atheists at times.Mario2007
I got over it. I read The Bible.
Now when people start preaching to me I start QUOTING The Bible. Things like:
"I'm not concerned for my eternal soul, because the word 'soul' doesn't mean what you think. If you read Genesis you'll see that Adam doesn't HAVE a soul, he IS a soul. Soul means "to take breath", not some ephemeral part of your being that continues after you die. Hell, even fish and animals are referred to as Souls because they RESPIRE! When you're dead you're gone, and that's why The Bible says a Physical Resurrection is necessary: you simply do not exist without your physical body. So piss off and educate yourself!"
I've made people so mad they can't complete a sentence. Funny. As. Hell.

As a religious person I've also said somewhat similar things to people. A soul is a person. They are the soul. It's not a separate entity.As a religious person I've also said somewhat similar things to people. A soul is a person. They are the soul. It's not a separate entity.ShadowsDemon
Yup. So many people misrepresent what The Bible is all about. The one lesson that permeates the text from beginning to end is: be meek and humble.
A Bible Thumper is neither.
The planet wants to be coated in plastic. So it created a life form to make plastic for it. 90% of all life that ever existed is no longer around and once the planet has sufficient plastic, one more species will be added to that %.
I'm a recently converted Buddhist. And by recently I mean, today. Though I've been following the teachings of the buddha for about a year now.

Okay George Carlin.
I am an atheist in the sense that I don't believe in any gods (disclaimer because the term is so muddied nowadays) and philosophically I could be called an existential nihilist. I am not hostile to religion as I see it as an important institution for human beings. Most people are better off believing in some mainstream religion. I do find some religions more objectionable than others however.

So many religions brain wash their people and twist the Bible in so many ways that it grows sour and no one wants anything to do with it.[QUOTE="br0kenrabbit"][QUOTE="ShadowsDemon"]As a religious person I've also said somewhat similar things to people.

So many religions brain wash their people and twist the Bible in so many ways that it grows sour and no one wants anything to do with it.Most of the religious people I know really do twist the bibles message. Well Jesus's message, because the bible is full of some pretty nasty verses. Every once in awhile I meet a really good christian... it's rare in my country, but it does happen. But that Christian really make me believe that there really are some good religous people out there. It's not about conversion, but about their relationship with god and how they can do good in our society with it.But the issue is like almost all religions once you become a fanatic of it the problems begin to surge.
[QUOTE="GrayF0X786"]that would be me :P , there are a few more Jews around here, guess they didn't vote. but I mean , what do you expect, there are only about 13 million Jews in the world.Only 13 Million Jews in the entire world? That population number for Jews is disturbingly low if you ask me.only 1 Jew?...Jesus.

That's not what I mean, instead I was referring to the fact that China, where Chinese people from, aren't that great.GazaAli
Classic Gaza. Compensates for his own shameful society by falling back on the mantra that other countries "really aren't that great". Whether it's America, China, Sweden, Germany, UK, Gaza would rather think that none of these countries is really that great. What a pitiful individual.
