Lerk Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 AND im back immediately because as i went to close out my facebook THIS was staring me in the face. GAH https://www.facebook.com/ZolaLevitt/photos/a.116276055076445.7180.105302302840487/705191389518239/?type=1 her caption said: I Stand with God, therefore i stand with Israel! since deconverting i really have not read enough about the whole israel and palestine thing to have an opinion on the whole thing but sheesh. so if they are wrong, you would continue to stand with them? that makes good sense. This stuff really makes me sick. In contrast, I have a FB friend who shared this: When I was a Christian, I wasn't a pre-millenialist. I'm still in the closet, and I've been really tempted to post the "proof texts" we used to "prove" that there was not going to be any literal 1000-year reign. (We were taught that Jesus established a spiritual kingdom, and never intended to establish an earthly kingdom -- "my kingdom is not of this world.") It would really piss off all of my evangelical friends, but it might have some effect of the Church of Christ people who don't know what they're supposed to believe. A lot of them go along with popular Christianity because that heavy theology stuff doesn't get preached on much any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neverlandrut Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Lies.jpg I saw this lovely thing today. BARF. ^^^ Today my creationist cousin tagged me and a bunch of other people in a link to an Answers from Genesis (red flashing light alert) article about why God allows suffering. I read it. The author was a doctor who left doctoring(?) to become a full time creationist ministries guy. Obviously this guy knows a lot about science. The article had a rather simplistic and incomplete understanding of evolution (as molecules "somehow" coming together to make organisms). It also presented the problem of morality from evolution and (of course) took a Biblical literalist position. I prepared a nice little response about how the author left out the idea that perhaps the creation stories were mythology and that the author didn't cause me to trust his authority on evolution. After my boyfriend convinced me that it would probably create a fuckload of drama within my creationist family and that they would not listen to what I was saying anyways, I decided not to post it and merely untagged myself. My creationist family piled on the likes. Then my cousin liked the Creation Museum's page. I don't think I've ever read anything more backwards! (The picture, that is).

Flutters Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 ....Well then maybe you'd realise just what is inside that 'holy' book? I cringe every time I see their posts too, and I'm SO glad to find this thread, so that I don't explode on them for their hypocrisy and veiled arrogance! That said, I might give credence to this meme if it followed with: What if the bible acted like your cellphone by Allowing you to communicate well with loved ones. Actually answered your texts and calls for help Resulted in help actually arriving when you used it to do so Had an actual living being on the other end who communicated back. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midniterider Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 If a cell phone was like the bible you could throw it away every year and get an updated version that ran better and did new stuff. If a bible was like a cell phone you could mute it or put it on vibrate. If a cell phone was like the bible it might crash due to contradictory programming instructions. If the bible was like a cell phone it would be cool and fun. If the bible was like a cell phone you could call an ambulance with it. If the bible was like a cell phone you could look at porn on it while you worked. We need a meme called , "What if Christians used rational thought?" 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not because they actually care about Israel. They wouldn't give a crap if the bible didn't say that the Israelites are their god's chosen people. Here's the part I don't get. Most people in Israel are Jewish, not Christian. According to the bible, christians should be destroying them, but that's also in the old testament. So, why would the christian god come back to his "chosen people" who haven't actually followed the alleged proper path. Aren't christians admitting they are, in fact, wrong and we should all be jews? I'm beginning to have trouble putting on my christian rationalization hat the longer I'm not christian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lerk Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Evolution (memetics) in action. The reason Christianity is still with us is that no matter the problem, the meme has evolved a response to keep people from rejecting it. After almost 2000 years, the responses are well developed. My problem is solved? My god solved it for me! My problem isn't solved? My god wants me to get stronger! I solved a problem? My god gave me that answer because I couldn't possibly have thought of it on my own. And with this thing about the teacher being quiet... I can't hear my god trying to give me the solution? It's because the test isn't over yet. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waitingongod Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Saw this today: "Some of may have seen a yellow letter looking like a U wilh a dot in the middle. It is the letter N in Arabic. İt is a sign that has been placed on all the Chrıstian's homes in Mosul Iraq by ISIS. If anyone ıs ın Mosul tomorrow who ıs a Chrıstıan, they can be identified this way. They will be killed tomorrow. This is my way of doing what Heb 10 and 13 says.....be one with those persecuted. Bear the sign happily. So, dejavu, christian god did something similar when the israelites had to mark their doors in blood to prevent god from killing their first born. I'm debating on responding to this, but depending on how I do, it would likely fully out me and start a shit storm in my family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's because the test isn't over yet. Why the fuck is God always "testing" us, anyway? What is the purpose of that? So that we'll be better people before we go to the heaven that we're supposedly not good enough to go to without Jesus? Do those who do better during the test go to "Better Heaven"? What are the grading criteria? How do we know if we've passed or failed a test? The whole "God is 'testing' us" thing never made a lick of sense to me, not as a Christian, and even less as an atheist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
