I think I'll pick some up to have on hand for when she visits.

ddrgkd is a perfect example of how brainwashing works.

Notice that all he ever posts are the brainwashing verses of the Bible that are repeated by the biblical authors ad nausea.

It's clear that the culture that wrote the Bible was desperate to brainwash people into believing that they need to be 'saved' and that only their religion can provide that service.

He can't debate the book in general because he has no clue what the stories are actually about.

I believe that you are right to ask him if he ever actually read the Bible himself because based on his posts it's pretty obvious that he hasn't. He just roots through the book quoting the demagogurey and never gives any reasons or explanations as to why any of it makes any sense.

The idea that Jesus was the son of the God of Abraham is ludicous and that becomes crystal clear from actually reading the Bible!

It is a fact that the vast majority of Christians have no clue what the Bible actually says.

In fact, historically speaking, the men who have studied the Bible the most have rejected the religion altogether.

Of course there are those who made religion their careers, but even if we look at the professional clergy we see that they all disagree on what the Mediterranean myth is all about.

Some of them are Jews, some are Muslims, some are Catholics, and the most obnoxious of all have protested to become protestants of a myriad of sects that all disagree with each other.

It's strikingly obvious that men who actually read the Bible either denounce it altogether or become fiercly divided about what it actually says.

We need to keep in mind also that the the Bible, the Torah, and the Koran are all the same myth twisted in different ways.

Obviously if the New Testament is correct then God turned his back on two cultures that wanted to worship him - the Jews and the Muslins.

It would be ludicious to claim that the Jews and Muslims turned against God because they both believe that they are worshiping him!

This alone should be proof positive that all four of these major religions, Judaism, Catholicism, Islam, and Protestantism are all obviously wrong.

It makes no sense to believe in a God that purposefully divides people via confusion.

These religions are clearly ungodly, not a one of them can be true because utimately they are all the same train-wrecked religion.

Just look at Christianity!

It started out with as supposedly unchanging God that was concerned solely with good works and good morals. But now it has become all about a God who has changed his mind about how he wants people to behave, and he has also changed his mind about the criteria to earn his love.

Clearly that religion is bogus. It simply can't be true. There's no question about it. A person doesn't even need to go outside of the myth to recognize that it's a farce.

If there were any truth to the religion at all, it would need to lie in Judaism or Islam, clearly Catholicism and Protestantism are out of the picture because they veered too far from the original premises of the religion.

So if there is any merit in the religion at all it necessarily must be in the pre-Jesus versions of it.

Jesus would not be a 'savior' at all, but a divider. And for God not to recognize this would imply that God is utterly stupid. Clearly we can't have God being stupid, so the religion necessarily must be rejected based on the fact that it's absurd.

That the only conclusion that can be had if you truly read the Bible.

Jesus cannot possibly have been the son of the God of Abraham. The Old Testament simply doesn't leave that option open.

Read the Bible and you'll see that this has to be the case. Jesus didn't even agree with the God of Abraham and he actually blasphemed against the God of Abraham by denouncing the ways of the Old Testament. The Jews would have been honoring the God of Abraham by murdering Jesus.

There's no way that Jesus could have been the son of the God of Abraham.

It just isn't feasible. The Old Testament doesn't permit it.

ddrgkd, that was a tongue-in-cheek post I made. Have YOU read the bible? There is no book titled Hezekiah in the bible. Hezekiah was a king mentioned (I think) in Kings, Chronicles & Isaiah.

Good for you that you have a strong faith and are happy with where you're at, but Christianity is NOT for everyone. No matter how many times you ask someone to read the bible, or ask them if they're saved, you're not going to change their mind. There are those of us here who have read the bible front to back and we're still not going to agree with you. If you want to argue using scripture verses, I'll be happy to list verses that directly contradict each other.
I was raised in a christian household. I was taught that Jesus was the only way into Heaven. Whenever I had a question about something contradictory in the bible, the question went unanswered. The only time I truly felt Saved was when I took the christian blindfold off and left the church altogether.

One of the lost books of the bible...found!

2nd Hezekiah Chapter 4 verses 4-7
(4)“...and thou shalt not taketh my words literally, but shall knoweth that I speak of enlightenment from a gnostic sense. Verily, it pains me to see my children rammeth their version of the truth down my other children’s throats. (5) I do hopeth, even now, that the scribes who are coping down my words (as spoken through the mad, lice-ridden prophet that I’ve chosen for this week’s mouthpiece) will removeth only the swear words and not change my message too much. Thou knowest, as do all who have played telephone, that the original message often get’s lost in translation. (6) Thou must wonder why I have chosen men to write down my message. I am thy Creator, yes, and I am all-powerful. However......I seem to have misplaced my pen. (7) So......while I am searching for it all I ask you, my children, is to not argue over the different translations of my words, persecute or try to “save” others, or do something as stupid as go to war in my name. Also, I’m not God the Father. I’m God the Mother. Hopefully I can find my pen soon before these scribes mess everything up and try to make this a patriarchal, narrow-minded religion. Love, Mother.
P.S. Stop searching for Jesus. I already found him. He was behind the couch the whole time.”

Hmmm. The easiest solution would be to offer to change the baby's diaper yourself and then you can do it where ever you want to.

Here is a thought~
Ever used the restroom and not washed your hands? Has company ever used your restroom and not washed their hands?

Where a baby gets changed is not as unsanitary as you think. The baby doesn't even touch the floor or surface in question. There are wipes involved too.

But it is not at all rude to dictate what goes on in your house. You live there... it is your kingdom!

Yes, there was water in the bowl. Glad it wasn't a dream about tequilla and eating the worm at the bottom of the bottle.
