The Dark Lord Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 ...if you call the world events from Jesus to Now "happily ever after" you are either naive, stupid, an idealist, or drunk... That's the point I'm trying to make. World Wars I & II, Holocaust, Communism in Russia (Stalin), nuclear disaster in Cherobyl (However you spell it.)? SWAG Mayn U wanna be like me but U can't be me cuz U ain't got ma swagga on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defender2516 Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Jesus was God, comming as a man, to take away our sins. Not his sins, but ours. There is only 1 requirement to get into heaven and its free. Accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior. Yet, instead people are careful and watchful, that they do not offend anyone. When ones freedom is interrupted by another freedom, the once love that was in people's hearts forgave them, so unity may take place. Now.. when a freedom of another person steps into anothers freedom, hostility arises, hate and strife breed. We are not shocked due to our desenstivity. Sin wipes out love. You cannot sin while being in love. They are completely opposite. Jesus says, no matter who does what to you, love them. Or another words, never touch hate. Even if you have a reason to hate someone, do not. The term "eye for a eye" stands more today than ever. If I was to stand here today, and say Jesus is lord, and the Father is the only true God.. and every other religion is false, then I would suffer alot of persecution, being arrogant on the matter, dumb, foolish, and unwise. The reason why this action would be justified by others is simpley because I know not.. nor am special like anyone else, nor know any more than anyone else. So, ridiculing me would be okay. But what does one like myself do.. if I was right? What if it was the truth? Do I stand by quietly.. watching people live the wrong ways of life.. or do I speak up? Offending many..? ~Defender~ If you love me, send me a PM. 8 - Love me2 - Hate me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djo0 Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Alex :15, I belive Jesus was a real person, who belived there was a God and he set up a religion with his wife Mary Magdaline and his disciples. I do not belive he was the son the of God, but he was one of the most influential people of the last 2 milenia. Also he was the first communits. "All men are free" "all men are equal" Sounds like Stalin, or Gordon Brown :P There is little to no proof that Jesus and Mary Magdelin were married. The only reason that most people believe this is because of the "Da Vinci Code." It was fiction, Dan Brown made that up to sell copies. Also, about Jesus saying that all men are free and equal. How is that Communist? The US Declaration of Independance basically say that. I'm pretty sure everyone believes all men are free and equal, at least in the US.

Offending many..? ~Defender~ I must say mate, I do applaud you for your last few posts being much less immature and more descriptive of your belief, letting people know what you are really on about and not just leaving us all in the dark and thinking nasty things about you. Sincerely. As for your very last point, of course, well put, but I or anyone else of any faith, creed or doctrine could think exactly the same thing. In terms of beliefs, we all think we are right, otherwise we wouldn't believe them. Perhaps a contributor to my atheistic life stance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
