So you decide for yourself which interpretation of the scripture is right for everybody?

Have fun with this one.

But have it without me.

Im gunna rot like a peach after I die, unless im creamated. Once your gone, your gone, but you will live on in the thoughts of the people who loved you. If it makes you feel better to believe in a god, more power to ya, but I need at least some proof before I believe anything. One of my favorite website is "exchristians.net", and I think everyone should at least have a look.

your a classy lady....

how long did it take you to interpet the dead sea scrolls....??

Thanks but I'll respectfully decline from checking out what the ex-Christians think.
For me, Jesus Christ said it all with his "Sermon on the mount", and nothing needs to be added, nor can anything be subtracted from that perfect message.
Happy Holidays to ya!

Thats fine, assuming that there ever really was a Jesus, and as I said before, I sure havn't seen any proof. In my opinion, and im not alone, to believe anything that was written back then is ridiculas. I used to believe in God...

I believe it's pretty much established that Jesus existed in human form as a historical fact.
To me, he exists as the living God by nature of the Holy Spirit that dwells in my heart and convicts me to believe in him and the salvation he has promised.

thats you


but I have yet to seen any proof of a god.there will never be any proof of that either,((((((because no one can make it a fact that there is a god.))))))all there is are bibles,churches and words.......does not make it fact

I believe that there may have been a guy with the name of Jesus back then, I don't dispute that at all. Actually, lots of people have that name today, but it's pronounced differently (hey suse)
I feel sorry for people who believe that there is a god watching over them, and lots of people do. There are many religions today, and there always have been, but not one of them can produce any proof that their god really exsists.

And who's argueing with you ? I'm certainly not...You have the right to believe, or not believe whatever you wish...

Please don't waste any sorrow on me. I'm blessed beyond compare.


If there was proof... If you had that proof, without room for doubt, that God exist and is omnipotent, knowing the count of the hairs on your head, knowing your past, present and future, you would in essence be denied free will.
God I believe in doesn't want robots, he wants us to seek him with our own free will.
He wants a relationship with us which is sought and found in faith.
If you don't believe in him, that's fine because you're exercising your free will. I happen to believe and that's fine too.

Why do you feel sorry for them?

People are programmmed from childhood, to believe whatever religion their parents are into, just as they are programed to believe everything else we learn as we grow up.
There are some exceptions, like when a prostitute or drug user has finally had enough saddness in their life because of their actions, and turn to religion out of desparation, but I think that is taking things to the extreme. It would make alot more sense to just stop doing bad things.
I used to be a terrible alcoholic, and my life had become a nightmare. I didn't need religion to stop drinking, I only needed to stop drinking, which is what I did, and now my life is wonderful again, and has been for about 7 years now.
People need to believe in themselves, decide what it is their doing wrong, and change their ways, thats all it takes, and it's easy to do without any outside help from a myth. Dennis

But, why do you feel sorry for them?

It's cyrstal clear to me that the Bible itself is the word of egotistical bigoted male-chauvinisitc men and most certainly not the word of any divine being.

To believe in the Bible is to put your faith in the bigoted superstitions of men.

You'll never find God as long as you worship dogma.

there is no god to worship

just cause you go to church or believe a certain way,does not make you a christian.

show me proof,make it a fact that there is a god,dont tell me to believe any of that stuff.make it a fact

"dogma" if I'm not mistaken is belief in man's interpretations and rituals.
I don't believe in dogma, but rather I believe in the spirit that dwells in me which lights my way.

I feel sorry for people who suffer from physical or mental illnesses causing pain and the inability to live a normal life.

I feel sorry for people who are without heat or utilities during the cold winter months.

I feel sorry for those who have no bed to sleep in at night.

I feel sorry for mother's and father's who have no Chritmas presents for their children this year because they lost their jobs.

I do not feel sorry for people who have different spiritual beliefs than I do....even if they don't make sense to me. To say that you feel sorry for people who believe in God is condescending and implies that they are somehow inferior to you.

I may believe what I believe.

but i dont feel sorry for any one,nore do I look down on them.I just state my opinion it is an open topic,in which any one can post

It's not for me to show you proof or exibit facts. It's only for me to read the writing on the wall for myself.
