The End of Christianity




Is there a reason to believe in God? The majority of the world believes that a supernatural god exists. They do so for various reasons: Because they know that everyone they love will die including themselves; they were conditioned from childhood to do so; they do not know how everything came to be and they want answers; they want to be something more than a mammal that will live for 75 years...the list goes on.

People also believe because of their personal experience with God. They talk to God, and they find guidance through him and his teachings. Looking at such things from a rational perspective, one can see that it is much more likely that the people are talking to themselves, and that the human brain is perfectly capable of creating sensations that seem supernatural. The only way prayer has been proven to work is in some placebo effect studies, which simply means the brain is strong enough to release endorphins that relieve pain. It is much more probable that ones personal experience with God is not supernatural considering the supernatural does not exist as we know it. 'We are all atheists about most of the gods that humanity has ever believed in. Some of us just go one god further.' -Richard Dawkins.




The God who Wasn't There


Regardless of the fact that God does not exist in scientific terms, many have spent their lives as devout Christians; they ask God to spare one second to talk to them or to give them a small sign, but many (including myself) are ignored, even when we pray the 'right' way and for the 'right' reasons God epitomizes the deadbeat father. When we have dozens of people praying for us, nothing happens. While God is silent to our prayers, there are children slowly dying of starvation every 5 seconds, there are natural disasters claiming the lives of millions, and there are viruses using innocent hosts in the most detestable ways.




Christianity, the Unoriginal Myth


All throughout history humankind has depended on gods to explain how things work. Before and after Christianity, humans have invented many gods. To say all of the gods before and after the Christian god are fakes is to shoot one's self in the conceptual foot. Many of the main concepts of Christianity are unoriginal and can be found in texts older than the Bible. The concept of souls, hell, sin, everlasting life, rules to enter eternity, the creator of the universe, the object of sacrifice, redemption, etc can be found in one book that predates the Bible: it is the Bhagavad-Gita, mostly based on the teachings of Krishna. This is just one archaic text out of many that share similarities with the bible, though they were written before it.

Not only is the Bible unoriginal, but it is full of inaccuracies and contradictions. Read individual stories from the Gospels; many of the stories do not match up, i.e. the crucifixion and resurrection. Not only do they not match up, but every story about Jesus 'was written 35 to 65 years after Jesus' death, not by people who were eyewitnesses, but by people living later.' -Bart Ehrman leading New Testament scholar. There were other faith healers at the time of Jesus whose followers claimed to have seen them after they died. Were they all correct? 'Other faith healers in the time of Jesus -the tradition of miracles done by Apollonius of Tyana, Hanina ben Dosa, Honi the Circle-Drawer, and Vespasian.' -Bart Ehrman

THere is A GOd and hes Father of Jesus Christ. Believe it or not. Its kind of weird that everything that is happening was prophesied and yet we are here sitting and like " O well its suppose to happen. Hey some will follow and others wont. We all have our own wills to choose what we want.

Realy? EVERYTHING thats happening was prophesied?

No it isnt.

There are no biblical prophises that have come true.
People love to delude themselves.

You are correct... some will believe their own lies but others will keep what has been tried & true.

Christianity: The belief that some cosmic Jewish Zombie can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathicically tell him that you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree.

right.
Makes perfect sense.

Take off the fleshly blinders...

Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

faith is the belief in something because there is no evidence for it.
The only you have are your fear tactics, they worked on you and out of shear embarrassment you need to get others with them so you don't feel as gullible and you can point fingers and and say well it fooled you to.....
That and the driving fear of your own death, but either way it is a fear based religion that must be avoided at all costs.
