We all like to look at the Muslims and say look at those ass holes. Why are they so willing to kill themselves for a god. Meanwhile back at the ranch we have a Christian take over of most of our government, which means that people who believe in an apocalypse actually have the power to make it happen. Most of the Main Street religions came about 2000 + years ago, when they didn’t have indoor plumbing, no weapons of mass destruction and really no way to improve all lives. It’s been running as a business every since, back then church was the government and actually helped people. Now all they care about is their influence over people.

Now I for one want to move forward from antiquated rituals and start getting off the path of destruction. Maybe we can look past all the bullshit and try to make a life for our children or our children’s children. Think of this as a warning cause it’s only a matter of time before a savoir in our government steps up and pushes a button that destroys the world.

Faith, I can agree with and even feel positive about. Faith gives rise to brilliant and powerful ideas.

1.You shall have no other gods before me.

2.You shall not make for yourself any carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth; you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.

3.You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain.

4.Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates. For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it.

5.Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long upon the land which the Lord your God is giving you.

6.You shall not murder.

7.You shall not commit adultery.

8.You shall not steal.

9.You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.

10.You shall not covet your neighbor’s house; you shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor’s.”

Yes these are an amazingly good group to follow and will make every one follow the good path.. Totally worth the risk of having someone who belives in the end of the world and thinks that bringing it about will actually save his fellow belivers.

Sounds like the perfect recipe for a mass following of well behaved sheep who don't dare object to your word for fear of eternal burning.

Now just replace religion with government, or combine the two.

Good stuff man.

So the ten commandments state that it's OK to own someone, as long as they don't work on the 7th day..

Are you waiting for the apocalypse?

Also do you take off the 7th day, because if you don't hell awaits you as well.

How is this a troll thread? It's a thread that states we believe in antiquated religions and it's seriously negatively effecting the world. We have people in Power who believe that when the world ends, god is going to come down and carry them to heaven. There are people who might have power to set off nuclear arms who believe such things.

So tell me all the positives in religion?

Any Christian who espouses the prediction or ushering in of the apocalypse is full of shit. If Jesus couldn't give them the date, then how could anyone else?

It's a troll thread because it's an ignorant explosion of intolerance towards a massive percentile of humanity, based upon a few pigheaded and widely-publicized examples of ignorance and intolerance. You would have been better off summarizing your OP with a lolcat.

edit: ...or naming your thread 'atheist circle-jerk.'

You don't need to predict when it happens when  you can make it happen.. I'm not ignorant on the subject nor am I intolerant about it. You believe what you want, it's just very scary that someone who believes so devoutly could actually be in that position..

So do you believe in the Apocalypse?

I'm not an atheist.

tbh, Organized religion that promotes extremist ideas is bad, should be eliminated

Organized religion has done really good things too, like collect money for the poor, etc, etc...

People can believe in whatever as long as their beliefs don't create conflict.

I'm agnostic BTW.

My personal beliefs on the matter are irrelevant to the fact that the thread is trollish, so you can put that red herring back in its tin can where it belongs.

Speaking from a neutral point of view (to avoid the expected questionnaire), how arrogant would it be for a devout Christian to 'force God's hand' into committing to a course of action on or around a date that Christ himself didn't venture to guess?

I'm sure the Pope wouldn't approve.

"christian takeover of most of our government" ROFLMAO
Apparently, you never took a good look at US history.  You'll find we are probably at the least Christian dominated point in our history.  In the 1700s, "freedom of religion" basically meant you could be any denomination within Christianity...

I'd also say the Christian church (read Roman Catholic) was at a pretty corrupt point in the early part of the 2nd millenium.  It's improved quite a bit (sexual abuse scandal being the exception).

Good talk and wow most of them don't go over 4 pages. I guess it's cause no one really wants to talk about it, well that's a good debate. Hopefully we'll move along and evolve as people before it's too late.

I think the values religion teaches are very good, for the most part (do good by others, help people etc. etc. etc.). Problems happen when people believe others speak for "god" or whatever higher power, and are taught not to question.

Meh, I could go on for ages but it's 5:30am, time for sleep.
