evolution is bogus

[RICHARD]

in the catholic religion babies are purported to be born with a lower form of sin.....venial sin
because of Adam and Eve....with baptism that sin disappears. it's not a big deal until you get to MORTAL SINS......that's when evil rocks your world...

and the baby who dies before baptism goes to the halfway house of Purgatory and then goes to heaven
after they 'work off' sin.....think of it as the
penalty box in the worldy game of hockey..

the official skates up the the box and says....

"Baby number 1,256,125,265 is going to the box for two minutes for venial sin..."
after two minutes he gets back in the game....



the killer about to be executed can be admitted into 'heaven' only if he is truly sorry for his 'sins'-that is the sign of a benevolent god....


and why does it have to be a serial killer??

isn't killing one person just as bad as killing a bunch?????

the old line is heaven doesn't want me and hell is afraid i'll take over....but then again why worry???

i'll be dead.

Makes sense Richard. I still don't agree with it.

Yes. I just typed serial killer as an example.

I don't know that I would have put it quite like this, but I really agree!

I am a Christian. My parents were members of the Nazarene church (they aren't anymore, but that's a loooong story). I've never been baptised, but I was dedicated. However, I will not go to church. I have a really hard time accepting the word of a pastor who is preaching about accepting everyone and not judging people based of race or creed or whatever, and then in the same breath saying that gay people can't go to a Christian school (yes, this actually happened when I went to church one morning). Sorry, but isn't that JUDGING?? I beleive in God and from what I know of Him, I don't believe for one second He's that hypocritical.

It has always bugged me when Christians would "feel sorry" for people who weren't Christians (and I'm only basing this on my own experience); they always claimed it was compassion but it always seemed like a smug arrogance like "I'm right and they are wrong"

Whoa - major flashback.

I can remember being around 13-14 years old at my church (Lutheran), and seeing in the hymnal a section on prayers. OK - that's kind of cool. Prayers for all occasions. Holidays, special events, weddings, etc. Then I saw a prayer about praying for all those poor non-Christian souls who didn't know any better....

Even though I never heard that specific prayer out loud, I was really offended by it. I knew that there was something that was, for lack of a better word, "unchristian" about it.

That is my reason for not going to church. It drives me nuts. I (ok Richard, I'm loading you with lots of ammo here) went to a gay church for a while, but then after going a few times I decided it wasn't for me. I didn't like the fact I couldn't choose which church I wanted to go to, instead I had to find a church that accpeted me. I didn't feel that was right at all. People should be able to feel comfortable at any church, I wanted to choose my religion and choose my specific church. I shouldn't have to go to a church because it's the only one in town that will accept me.

ah, religion...the only hypocrisy that GOD approves of.....

the funniest part is to walk into a new church and have all the parishoners check you out with a snap judgement....judge not lest you be judged...

in that case, i think i'll stay at home and take my chances with a life after death!! i mean, no cable or starbuck's, cell phones or taxes...
