Felling down lately with my health issue's i decided to turn to "the good book", i really needed something to need and about the only worthy thing to read is the bible, i have gotten to Matthew 12 in the span of 2 nights...

So far its interesting and i advise all of you's to read some of it, it may seem like a gay or "un-cool"thing to do but its actually quite an ok story, i just read it because if i forgot the old jesus'y picture and made up my own characters it would be cool and i have implanted new images of jesus in my mind to make the story a little more gripping, the part im really interested in is revelation i have read some of it (omfgcheatar!) and its....well....ok.

So yea ive had this instant urge to read the bible,probably a sign.....hmmmm...nah ill continue.

Criticise til lyour sad hearts are content or all descent ppl....discuss.

I was reading it too, and the best book is Leviticus. My favorite part is where he says what people can't eat.

"1: And the LORD spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto them,
2: Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are the beasts which ye shall eat among all the beasts that are on the earth.
3: Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, and cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat.
4: Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the hoof: as the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.
5: And the coney, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.
6: And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.
7: And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you.
8: Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they are unclean to you.
9: These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat.
10: And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you:
11: They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.
12: Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be an abomination unto you.
13: And these are they which ye shall have in abomination among the fowls; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
14: And the vulture, and the kite after his kind;
15: Every raven after his kind;
16: And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind,
17: And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,
18: And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle,
19: And the stork, the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
20: All fowls that creep, going upon all four, shall be an abomination unto you.
21: Yet these may ye eat of every flying creeping thing that goeth upon all four, which have legs above their feet, to leap withal upon the earth;
22: Even these of them ye may eat; the locust after his kind, and the bald locust after his kind, and the beetle after his kind, and the grasshopper after his kind.
23: But all other flying creeping things, which have four feet, shall be an abomination unto you.
24: And for these ye shall be unclean: whosoever toucheth the carcase of them shall be unclean until the even.
25: And whosoever beareth ought of the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even.
26: The carcases of every beast which divideth the hoof, and is not clovenfooted, nor cheweth the cud, are unclean unto you: every one that toucheth them shall be unclean.
27: And whatsoever goeth upon his paws, among all manner of beasts that go on all four, those are unclean unto you: whoso toucheth their carcase shall be unclean until the even.
28: And he that beareth the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: they are unclean unto you.
29: These also shall be unclean unto you among the creeping things that creep upon the earth; the weasel, and the mouse, and the tortoise after his kind,
30: And the ferret, and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the mole..."

In summary, we can't eat pig, camel, coney, rabbit, shellfish, eagle, osprey, ossifrage, vulture, kite, owl, cuckow, hawk, cormorant, swan, pelican, stork, heron, bat, lapwing, most flying insects, weasel, mouse, tortoise, ferret, lizard, snail, or mole.

Dayum.

Yea thats the part interested in until i thought, whats the point if we dunno why it will end. So im trying to bring out key issues and list them, Why would god want it to end? If we all turn against each others? So far everyone i know is going to hell, they really should consider the bible if they feel there is a god or afterlife and make sure all is good with god, because right now im performing a sin.

Ok, I'm not against the bible or christianity or anything, used to be one(still am?) but, how do you know God is real?
I'm talking concrete evidence. I wanna see that mountain move. Something real. Not, yippee, my foot doesn't hurt anymore!
Isn't it convienent that the bible says not to test God?
I've kinda been questioning the basis of religion lately. If christianity, or any other religion, is the religion, then why didn't everyone know about it in the beginning? That's the way God would want it right? Instead, all of these other peoples that developed away from where other religion's have their roots developed their own religion. Woulnd't the religion develop everywhere, even if it was in slightly different forms? Does that mean in our psyche we have a need to believe in a higher power? Or is it the "good versus evil" thing where the devil, bad spirits, whatever, is trying to condemn, and the faithful have to recruit?
Do you see why I'm questioning my beliefs? Everything I've believed in has been flipped over. Logic sucks.

Nobody believes in God more stongly than the Atheist; a person who has created a religion for the sole purpose of ignoring God, yet desperately tries to get His attention.

In the gospels Jesus damns entire towns [Mt 11:23], compares non-Israelites to dogs [Mt 15:26], and affirms even "the smallest letter" [Mt 5:18, Jn 10:35] of the Torah. The god of the Torah tests and torments his followers, commits mass murders of e.g. Noah's flood victims [Gen 6:7, 7:21] and the firstborn sons of Egypt [Ex 12:29], creates linguistic division for fear of an ancient construction project [Gen 11:6], and curses mankind because Adam dared to "become like one of us, knowing good and evil" [Gen 3:22].
The god of the Torah promotes or demands extravagant worship, dietary taboos, animal sacrifice, repressive sexual codes, human mutilation, monarchy, subjugation of women, slavery, human sacrifice [Lev 27:29, Jud 11:30-39, cf. Heb 11:17, Jam 2:21], and mass murder of even infants [Gen 6:7, 7:21, Ex 11:5, 12:29, 1 Sam 15:3, cf. Heb 11:7,28]. In the gospels Jesus affirms the Torah [Mt 5:18, Jn 10:35], endorses the murderous flood of Noah [Mt 24:38, Lk 17:27], and promises sinners not a thousand years' unrelenting torture, nor a million or a billion, but an eternity of excruciating torture by fire [Mk 9:43, Mt 18:8, 25:41, 25:46].
...yeah, the bible kicks ass.

I actually have read the bible. I studied to be a church worker. Then I read some sciencetific literature, and noticed that it (the bible) was just few thousand pages of old oppinions and fables.

Watch me waste cyberspace.

I'm sure it's a great book. I just find it hard to believe in it. Also, i don't need to belive in that sort of thing, either. It just consumes time.
