Now with Animation holy piss!

"Had any of you been born in Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Iran, Jordan, Syria, etc, there is nearly a 100% chance that you would be Muslim, and no amount of free will given to you from Jesus would prevent that. You would be doomed to Hell strictly because your parents lived in the wrong country. Think about that the next time you picture your God as all-loving and merciful. If He exists like you say He does, He is allowing millions of souls to go to Hell because they were born into a nation that does not believe in Him. How do you justify this?" C. Diddy

One of the most interesting quotes that I've seen expressing this hypocrisy in the Christian Religion.

A few Christians I know are relatively accepting, they may need a knock on the head once or twice, but they are absolutely wonderful to get into physiological and spiritual debates with. They also, of course, understand perfectly that I have my doubts with christianity. (I'd be far more comfortable believing in the older and pagan religions). They were also from my world religion class, and even they understand and aknowledge that the bible had been written by humans, and therefor is contaminated by the "human element."

However, there were christians in that class that had fits because they (as my other stamp Sorry Christians says) were being taught that there were other religions other than Christianity.

Well, needless to say, this argument came up in class, and the room absolutely imploded. I mean, seriously imploded. Security needed to be called because some crazy woman threw a book at the teacher's head.

HOWEVER I DIGRESS HOLYFUCK.

God is not all loving, and from what I read IN the bible, he really didn't think his creations through, at all, or his decisions. Why in the hell he would put a FORBIDDEN TREE IN THE MIDDLE OF EDEN AND TELL THEM NOT TO EAT FROM IT, is beyond me. Why he wouldn't just smite humans during Noah's Ark, being that Animals rely on instinct and survival, while humans are... less than so... is beyond me as well. To kill everything just because a few people are pissing you off? Nah, not my cup of tea.

UPDATE

So I have christians telling me that the word of God is the bible it should all be believed in context, and christians telling me that only half of it is applicable. I think you people need to make up your mind and figure out what is going on in your religion, because not only are you making yourselves look like a disorganized group of schoolchildren (as Christianity, Judaism, and Islam usually does), you're pretty much proving to EVERYONE how dissolved your minds are thanks to this.

SO I've done some thinking, and amidst me and my class buddies getting a starbucks and huddling around a table, I came up with a new notion.


Answer me this Christians.

If a man would come up to you and say he was the Son of God, what would you do? Would you shriek and bow at his feet asking him for forgiveness, or would you rebuke him, tell him he needed help, and ASK FOR PROOF?

To those who get irritated with me going I want physical proof not the 'word of god' (bible) don't seem to get that THE BIBLE WILL NEVER BE PHYSICAL PROOF TO ME. Stop going "Well the bible said this," because I really don't care. I'm looking for any historical NON-BIBLICAL evidence, that you can provide, that these events ever happened.

Such Events:

The Existence of Eden
The Great Flood
The Tower of Babel
The Plagues
Jesus' Existence
And other Monumental occurences.

Wait, so there are no any other possible choice than worship or just bash him. I would just go with this in neutrality. Pretty hard to believe a random person to be Jesus, but who knows maybe he could have some sort of hidden wisdom in spite of the lack of sanity. But that is just me and my appreciation for pseudo-insane people.

As for the proof, well just Christ's existence seems like the only good proof; but that doesn't seem to fly with most Atheist seeing that though Jesus was indeed historically real, not all the stories of him are said true (except for being this prophet teaching a religion of hope, said to be an equivalent of a miracleman/doctor, and crucified for the belief he is giving).

Other than that, I do agree with the stamp. Though God show instense of being loving, there are times where he sometimes portrayed something different. Than again, the reasons for these actions might be better explained in Judism belief; after all the Christian Old Testament is largely based on the Jewish stories.
