Christianity EtcTop 10 Reasons Why Beer Is Better Than Religion by Reverend(op): 7:43pm On Dec 20, 2006
Beer is a far better bet than religion

1. If you've devoted your life to Beer, there are groups to help you stop.
2. You can prove you have a Beer and that it exists.
3. There are laws saying that Beer labels can't lie to you.
4. You don't have to wait more than 2,000 years for a second Beer.
5. Nobody's ever been burned at the stake, hanged, or tortured over their brand of Beer.
6. When you have Beer, you don't knock on people's doors trying to give it away.
7. They don't force Beer on minors who can't think for themselves.
8. Beer has never caused a major war.
9. Beer doesn't tell you how to have sex and when.
10. No one will kill you for not drinking Beer.

Worship the mighty beer!

@Backslider

How can I have a problem with a person that does not exist. Please explain?

As for the Jews, they control the World! the TV you watch and nearly all the Banks and other financial institutions.

What has Tito got to do with anything? He died more than 25 years ago!!!!

I realize that I am human and that there are many of us on this planet. I really do not get your point?

As for all this born again nonsense, why will I have to account for my life to  the fairy story character Jesus. Now that is going a little too far.

Next you will be telling me that Santa Clause is not real tongue tongue

@Gbade.x

You are right that you have to deal with the root of the problem if you are to find a cure.

The problem is that when you have cancer taking an aspirin is not going to cure it. It has to be cut out and you have to make sure none of the cancerous growth is left,

That is nearly impossible sad

The Koran is an even more ridiculous book than the Bible. The Koran is the Mother or all contradictions and  is possibly the Greatest Bullshit story ever told.

I would like to be seen as being fair and impartial regarding both books!

CrimeRe: Internet 419 by Reverend(m): 10:34am On Dec 18, 2006
You are correct in saying that it is not ONLY Nigerians that commit these crimes!

99% of 419 crimes are commited by citizens of the following Countries:

1. Nigeria
2. Benin
3. Ghana
4. Ivory Coast
5. South Africa

Nigerian 419 gangs in Europe operate out of several centers namely:

London
Amsterdam
Madrid

There is no justification for their activities. They are criminals and they do untold damage to the reputation of honest Nigerians everywhere.
BusinessRe: Making Use Of Ebay by Reverend(m): 11:47pm On Dec 17, 2006
You can thank the Yahoo boys for this situation undecided

Every honest Nigerian should report people they know to the authorities if they are involved in 419. It is destroying the Country and is not as some people think a Western conspiracy!

It is greedy, lazy criminals sitting in internet cafes all day. They may think that they are not criminals, but in reality they are the worst type!

Maybe someone should set up an association of Nigerian Ebay users and offer a guarantee system that members would deliver and/or pay for the goods! Could be a good business and you could charge for membership!

[size=14pt]Jesus is in reality Horus the Sun God[/size]

The gospel story is an artificial, non-historical work. It has been fabricated from source materials that can be identified and traced to their incorporation into the gospels. There is not a particle of hard evidence that 'Jesus of Nazareth' ever existed

The Egyptian sun god Horus however,  who predated the Christ character by thousands of years, shares the following in common with mythical Jesus:

Horus was born of the virgin Isis-Meri on December 25th in a cave/manger with his birth being announced by a star in the East and attended by three wise men.

His earthly father was named "Seb" ("Joseph"wink. Seb is also known as "Geb": "As Horus the Elder he, was believed to be the son of Geb and Nut." Lewis Spence, Ancient Egyptian Myths and Legends, 84.

He was of royal descent.

At age 12, he was a child teacher in the Temple, and at 30, he was baptized, having disappeared for 18 years.
Horus was baptized in the river Eridanus or Iarutana (Jordan) by "Anup the Baptizer" ("John the Baptist"wink, who was decapitated.

He had 12 disciples, two of whom were his "witnesses" and were named "Anup" and "Aan" (the two "Johns"wink.
He performed miracles, exorcised demons and raised El-Azarus ("El-Osiris"wink, from the dead.
Horus walked on water.

His personal epithet was "Iusa," the "ever-becoming son" of "Ptah," the "Father." He was thus called "Holy Child."
He delivered a "Sermon on the Mount" and his followers recounted the "Sayings of Iusa."
Horus was transfigured on the Mount.

He was crucified between two thieves, buried for three days in a tomb, and resurrected.
He was also the "Way, the Truth, the Light," "Messiah," "God's Anointed Son," the "Son of Man," the "Good Shepherd," the "Lamb of God," the "Word made flesh," the "Word of Truth," etc.

He was "the Fisher" and was associated with the Fish ("Ichthys"wink, Lamb and Lion.
He came to fulfill the Law.

Horus was called "the KRST," or "Anointed One."

Like Jesus, "Horus was supposed to reign one thousand years."



Furthermore, inscribed about 3,500 years ago on the walls of the Temple at Luxor were images of the Annunciation, Immaculate Conception, Birth and Adoration of Horus, with Thoth announcing to the Virgin Isis that she will conceive Horus; with Kneph, the "Holy Ghost," impregnating the virgin; and with the infant being attended by three kings, or magi, bearing gifts.

In addition, in the catacombs at Rome are pictures of the baby Horus being held by the virgin mother Isis--the original "Madonna and Child."


So there we have it. Jesus is Horus!

TeeHay:
If Jehovah and Jesus were the same, how could one of them be aware of things of which the other was not? Jesus, for instance, said regarding the time of the world’s judgment: “Concerning that day or the hour nobody knows, neither the angels in heaven nor the Son, but the Father.”—Mark 13:32.
Because neither one of them exist, only in your imagination!

[size=18pt]MOCK GOD IF YOU FEEL LIKE IT![/size]

Nothing will happen to you at all  cheesy


Make a personal reflection about this. Very interesting, read until the end,

It is written in the book of fairy stories (The Bible) (Harry Potter 6:7): "Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

Here are some men and women who mocked God and had absolutely no problems at all. Most of them went on to be some of the most influential people of our time!


Albert Einstein

(March 14, 1879 – April 18, 1955)


"I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation, whose purposes are modeled after our own -- a God, in short, who is but a reflection of human frailty. Neither can I believe that the individual survives the death of his body, although feeble souls harbor such thoughts through fear or ridiculous egotism."

Arthur C Clarke

(December 16, 1917 - )

"It may be that our role on this planet is not to worship God, but to create him."

"Religion is a byproduct of fear. For much of human history, it may have been a necessary evil, but why was it more evil than necessary? Isn't killing people in the name of God a pretty good definition of insanity?"


James Madison,  American president and political theorist

(1751-1836)

"During almost fifteen centuries has the legal establishment of Christianity been on trial. What has been its fruits? More or less, in all places, pride and indolence in the clergy; ignorance and servility in the laity; in both, Famous Atheist & Quotessuperstition, bigotry, and persecution."
"In no instance have . . . the churches been guardians of the liberties of the people."
"Religious bondage shackles and debilitates the mind and unfits it for every noble enterprise."

"What influence in fact have Christian ecclesiastical establishments had on civil society? In many instances they have been upholding the thrones of political tyranny. In no instance have they been seen as the guardians of the liberties of the people. Rulers who wished to subvert the public liberty have found in the clergy convenient auxiliaries. A just government, instituted to secure and perpetuate liberty, does not need the clergy."


Samuel Clemens "Mark Twain"

(November 30, 1835 – April 21, 1910)

"Faith is believing something you know ain’t true."

"If Christ were here now there is one thing he would not be -- a Christian."

"It (the Bible) is full of interest. It has noble poetry in it; and some clever fables; and some blood-drenched history; and some good morals; and a wealth of obscenity; and upwards of a thousand lies."

"A man is accepted into a church for what he believes and he is turned out for what he knows."

"Our Bible reveals to us the character of our god with minute and remorseless exactness,  It is perhaps the most damnatory biography that exists in print anywhere. It makes Nero an angel of light … by contrast."

"I cannot see how a man of any large degree of humorous perception can ever be religious -- unless he purposely shut the eyes of his mind & keep them shut by force."

"If there is a God, he is a malign thug."


Sigmund Freud

(May 6, 1856 – September 23, 1939)

"Neither in my private life nor in my writings, have I ever made a secret of being an out-and-out unbeliever. "

"Religion is comparable to a childhood neurosis."

"The whole thing is so patently infantile, so foreign to reality, that to anyone with a friendly attitude to humanity it is painful to think that the great majority of mortals will never be able to rise above this view of life."


George Bernard Shaw

(born Dublin, 26 July 1856 – died 2 November 1950)

"The fact that a believer is happier than a skeptic is no more to the point than the fact that a drunken man is happier than a sober one."

"At present there is not a single credible established religion in the world."


Billy Joel

(May 9, 1949, in Bronx, New York - )

"I wasn't raised Catholic, but I used to go to Mass with my friends, and I viewed the whole business as a lot of very enthralling hocus-pocus. There's a guy hanging upon the wall in the church, nailed to a cross and dripping blood, and everybody's blaming themselves for that man's torment, but I said to myself, 'Forget it. I had no hand in that evil. I have no original sin. There’s no blood of any sacred martyr on my hands. I pass on all of this."

"I believe that all important matters have to be settled here, not in the clouds somewhere after we kick off."


Charles Darwin

(12 February 1809 – 19 April 1882)

From the age of forty he was, to use his own words, a complete this-believer in Christianity. He professed himself an Agnostic, regarding the problem of the universe as beyond our solution, "For myself," he wrote, "I do not believe in any revelation. As for a future life, every man must judge for himself between conflicting vague probabilities."
"The mystery of the beginning of all things is insoluble by us, and I for one must be content to remain an agnostic."

"It appears to me (whether rightly or wrongly) that direct arguments against christianity and theism produce hardly any effect on the public; and freedom of thought is best promoted by the gradual illumination of men's minds which follows from the advance of science."


Margaret Sanger  -   American birth control activist, founder of Planned Parenthood

(1883-1966)

"No Gods, No Masters."


Thomas Edison

(February 11, 1847 – October 18, 1931)

"Religion is all bunk."

"I cannot believe in the immortality of the soul,  No, all this talk of an existence for us, as individuals, beyond the grave is wrong. It is born of our tenacity of life – our desire to go on living … our dread of coming to an end."

@Pataki

You are a 100% loser who can not address the questions. You whinge and whine but I can feel your frustration and anger at yourself.

You have just admitted that you have trawled this forum looking for my posts when you could have spent your time answering the questions raised.

That is how much you know. You can not answer the questions of this thread as you are well aware that they are contradictions without answers.

You write long winded sentences about nothing.

I do not need anymore answers from you. You have answered everything I need to know in your last post.

YOU ARE WELL AWARE THAT THE BIBLE WAS WRITTEN BY MAN TO CONTROL MAN AND THAT IT MAKES NO SENSE WHATSOEVER!

Finally we have got you to indirectly admit what you really think! That the Bible is a pack of fairy tales.

Call the contradictions errors if you must. But that does not make the book less fallible!
