Topic: why do some people try to prove that there is no creator? | |
---|---|
the best way i can explain it is its like being the kid in the story "the emperor's new clothes"... if it were not for the people who throughout history, sought to debunk the superstition and dogmas that imprison the human mind and societies, sometimes at the cost of their own lives, the world, the state of education, technology and knowledge would not have progressed beyond the dark ages where god did everything, and we only had to read our bible and nothing else (those who could read that is). some of us actually care about the state of our one world and our one life and do not seek to console ourselves and appease our conscience by telling ourselves there is another one after we've denigrated this one. |

more people have been murdered in the name of god than anything else
except maybe Nazism and Communism (between Hitler and Stalin a LOT of people are dead) Adolf Hitler was Catholic. The Communist regime was never killing anyone in the name of god. More people have been put to death for the sole cause of organized religion than for any other reason on earth. |

Somehow I don't remember any of the World wars being started because of God.I don't remember any speeches saying we are killing for God.The only religion I can see that kills for God is the Muslim religion.You are also not going to sell me the idea that Hitler was somehow a good Catholic trying to conqure the world to convert it Catholism.He wanted the destruction of every Jew and burned down Jewish churches.I think it's safe to say religion wasn't a high priority on his list |

"I have often reflected, wistfully, on how much happier modern history might have been had Hitler been brought up as an atheist, an agnostic, or, at least, a Unitarian. Born and bred a Catholic, he grew up in a religion and in a culture that was anti-semitic, and in persecuting Jews, he repeatedly proclaimed he was doing the "Lord's work."
You will find it in Mein Kampf: "Therefore, I am convinced that I am acting as the agent of our Creator. By fighting off the Jews, I am doing the Lord's Work." |

I hate to break the news to you but Hitler was about as un-Catholic as a frog is to the desert.Anyone can say they are a Catholic or a Christian but does that mean that they are one?Of course not.Hitler told more lies in a few months than most politicans do in a lifetime.Have you ever listened to his speaches and noticed how "out there" he is?Few would debate he was not insane.Certainly ones actions speaks louder than words and considering Hitler was basically killing everyone on the planet he certainly wasn't even following the bible remotely including one of the commandments "thou shall not kill".I personally have never seen Hitler in church nor did I ever hear of any churches supporting Hitlers cause.I have never seen him wearing a cross or holding a cross.I have never seen his service men in uniform in church nor have I seen them wearing crosses. I think it's fair to say that Hitler though he was God and by him killing Jews(which he treated as a parasite)he thought he was doing the right thing.Many people have said Hitler was a "Anti-christ".Few would disagree myself included.Do I believe that Hitler would lie and use the bible and call himself a Catholic to further justify his actions.Yes I do.You certainly can not give me a single example of anything Hitler did that was either bible justified or something that Jesus would approve. In basic terms nobody on this earth would disagree that fighting Hitler was a battle against good and evil.Who do you believe was evil and good? |

Who do you believe was evil and good?
I dont. Since you are a Christian, you incorrectly assume that all people hold your same concept of "good and evil". There is no absolute good and absolute evil in things or people. All living creatures contain elements of both. This is a function of polarity. |

Krisma get back to me when you are ready to get into a serious discusion.

Well I answered your question. What do you want from me? Im not starting any arguments. Hitler was a Catholic and I dont believe in the concept of duality.

As a boy, Hitler attended to the Catholic church and experienced the anti-Semitic attitude of his culture. In his book, Mein Kampf, Hitler reveals himself as a fanatical believer in God and country. This text presents selected quotes from the infamous anti-Semite himself. Hitler was not only a confessed Christian, but his intolerance and atrocities were consistent with Biblical scripture and he acted as other Christians of the past and present. The Catholic and Protestant Churches in Germany set the foundation for WWII and the atrocities to occur. Popes, priests and nuns supported Hitler's regime. Indeed, Hitler could not have come to power without Christianity's help. http://nobeliefs.com/Hitler1.htm |

Maybe next time you should try a website that is religion neutral instead of a Christian bashing website.
Religion aside this is the biggest bunch of non sense I have heard in my 34 years.I am actually so surprised at the stupidity from the last few posts on this topic I can bear to read no more.I think your post should be in the Darwin awards hall of fame. |

Good luck finding a "neutral website" The closest you will be able to locate is historical sites. That is where I find most of my information. In this particular case I utilized "Mein Kampf." which translates to "My Life" in English and is an autobiographical account of Adolf Hitler.

"We are accountable for our own beliefs"
Pause for reflection it is up to each of us to check things out in His Word for ourselves. We, you and me, we are accountable for our own beliefs. Start by "checking out" the following scriptures which say "check things out for yourself". 1 Thes. 5:21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. John 5:39 Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. 2 Tim. 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. |
