Maybe i went about explaining it in the wrong way but the whole point is that christianity beleaves in to much stuff that is so obviouslys impossible and defys so much logic. Which is why its so obviously wrong.

Lately, I find it harder and harder to give any sort of respect or credibility to anybody who is religious, no matter what religion they are or how they practice it. I cannot respect a person who is so weak they need to convince themselves that something like a "God" exists. I used to just not care, but, slowly, I've hardened my heart against any sort of religious people. I don't really care if you're going to lambast me for this, since it's just proving my point...

Anyway, this topic makes me laugh. Good work.

I found this thread fairly amusing, and the fact people are offended so easily in the area of religion. Though, I wouldn't have expected well thought out points from izzy to begin with.

As for the original topic, I think everyone should have their rights. Sexuality has nothing to do with how you act or how you should be treated...who your sexual partner is matters not.

And whoever brought up the golden ratio...have you ever thought of it the other way around? It's kind of like the flawed 'intelligent design' argument. Look at the vastness of the universe. You expect ratio's to not appear frequently? What about 1? and 2? 1.5? The golden ratio may be a 'special' number, but what if it is simply an inevitability considering the size of our near infinite expanding and elegant universe?

Speaking of Christianity and homosexuality, where does the Bible say homosexuality is a sin? I still never learned the exact location in the Bible no matter how many times I ask =/ Do Christians even know their own damn Bible?

I have it. And I'll actually type it up for you

Romans 1:25-27

They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the creator-- who is forever praised. Amen. Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men commited indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.

Yay, I finally know =O

But isn't the Christian God supposed to forgive sins? This definately looks like a "I-don't-take-no-s***" kind of thing. Looks like the Bible contradicts itself >_> I could use this quote of Chickendude as backup.

P.S.
Quoting the bible is pointless, because it was written by a bunch of random people and then edited by constantine in 300ADish to remove any human qualities. It is a highly biased piece of work, and quoting it is pointless. But, just because the bible has many many many issues, doesn't mean you have to bash religion in general. I guess the way I treat religion would be more accurately defined as a philosophy.

Homosexuality is a silly topic to debate on. Anyone against someone having the rights to be homosexual is probably ignorant, stupid, a supremist, and sometimes even hypocritical if they're really dumb (you know, the one that says "I don't discriminate!"). There isn't anything to debate unless you're a Christian that lets your religion keep you ignorant or a 13 year old.



I agree debates about homosexuality are pretty pointless.However I do find it funny that you think that you think anyone who disagrees with your opinion is ignorant, stupid, etc.Especially since people who usually say that are for tolerance and free expression(or so they claim).

You don't get it: I don't care if you express what you feel, but I don't hesitate in flaming what you feel if it is a statement made off bias or stereotypes. Hatred towards homosexuals is 99.999% of the time made off stereotypes or bias. That's the kind of shit I hate and will not tolorate, and that is why I think it's a stupid topic to debate on.

Oh, please use the quote tags, looks much nicer :O

Its the #$#ing religion i hate. I have a couple friends that are christian.
Its just so discusting how people spend so much of their time worshiping false hope.
And in the end like always they are just going to die without seeing a single sign of god (wonder why)
Its also like that #$#ing crazy damn christian lady who thinks everyone else is the #$#ing devil.
If christianity or any other religion didnt exist everything would be so much better.
I also hate all the religious refrences made on this forum, really anoying.

Wow, I don't think I'll ever respect you. You could be insulting any religion like that and I'd freaking spit on you. You are such an impassive sacreligious asshole it isn't even funny. I hope you get banned.

PS: YOU HAVE 666 POSTS OPPS I MADE A VAGUE REFRENCE TO THE DEVIL! Actually you had 666 when I first went back to this thread, now you have 66X.

Pshycic, I don't care what you believe. Just believe it. Whatever you have to .

I can't believe.

I can't believe this thread hasn't been locked -__-

Wow.

Let's all jump the anti-religion bandwagon. It makes us cool. =\

Id spit on you to. I dont think ill ever respect you either after that.

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: Sad but true

Izzy. Give up.

Not all Christians are ignorant and try to force their religion on you. Granted, there are some that are, but that's not saying that all of them are. But, being an anti-religious zealot is just as bad as being a religious one. You are no different from those you despise so much.

You pretty much summed up all of the flaming in this thread. GG.

Who said anything about hatred towards homosexuals,If you know people who do hate them then tell them that they themselves are sinful.However disagreeing with the lifestyle and hating the person are not the same thing.



I base my beliefs off the Bible, not by stereotyping.And like i said debating about homosexuality is pointless it accomplishes nothing.

RE: Re: RE: Re: RE: Re: Sad but true

Nice one. You're no diffrent either. We are all the same.
Lets just jump in a big circle and dance.

Homosexuality has joy for the people that are.
Thats all that there really is in life.

We are both going to die and we are both going to rot in the same earth.

I come back after posting in this thread the day before and what do I find? Bam! Eight new pages.

It seems like this thread has evolved from a homosexuality debate to another directionless religious one.

Ugh.

Just because our bodies will rot in the same earth does not mean we have to believe our souls will rot in the same way aswell.

Some people have something called faith, a concept that you are clearly incapable of understanding. And do not pull out your scientific/logic nonsense on me again. Yes, science has infact proved teachings from the bible and multiple other religions to be IMPOSSIBLE. A man cannot survive being set on fire because he refused to worship his king. What you fail to understand is that faith has nothing to do with that. Hypothetical situation:

Your brother is a soldier at war in the mid-east with 12 other men. One night on the news you hear that 12 soldiers were killed in the mid-east because of a suicide bombing.

If you truly held on to your scientific/logical beliefs, you would assume that your brother is dead, and possibly proceed to prepare things for his funeral. But you wouldn't, would you? Because one soldier survived, and he could've been your brother. Are you saying that one tiny possibility of your brother having survived was completely blocked out of your mind?

If you can understand that, I don't know why you can't understand the concept of people having faith in some type of upper power. People believe in God for multiple reasons, and 80% of the time they understand the 'flaws in the bible' that you've been preaching about throughout this entire thread. It is because God gives them some kind of hope, wether it be to become a better person, go to heaven, or anything else for that matter, that they chose to believe him. You can't fucking understand that?

You're also making a horrid generalization that all Christians shove their religion into your face and try to 'recruit' every single living being into their little 'cult'. Not only is that completely WRONG, but you are being no different than these stereotypical christians. You are constantly pushing YOUR beliefs upon them, expecting them to suddenly go "ZOMG YOU'RE RIGHT I GUESS GOD DOESN'T REALLY EXIST." Some people grow up with it, and the concept of there being a god is ingraved in their mind. Just like the concept of killing being wrong is in our minds. If some lunatic came in here and said we should all kill the jews, he'd get a slap in the face on the spot. You're being no different.

I'm sorry if I suck at words but your ignorance this time was seriously enough to make me want to write out a good long post. =\

Well, technically, from what I've learned, Christianity a religion that believes in the idea of missionaries and "spreading the word". At my church at least, we're supposed to go and "spread the word about God". Isn't this a sort of recruiting? And isn't it required (more or less) by the religion?
