i don't know what to believe to be honest

what does the evidence suggest to you?

Old Fable Story
LT

that Jesus could walk on water, so that he was a bit of a god

I think he was one of many preachers who were around back then but his ideology cut through with people and he got such a large following that he got the attention of the Jews and the Romans who saw his teachings as a threat so they made an example of him.

id certainly like to take her up the transept to feel her holy spirit

:hehe:

Nice art Work

But there is no God
Fact.

As real as the things on my chest

The whole resurrection myth was all over the middle east and they hung it on him hundreds of years later like a good editor would make an author add a chapter to a book to make it commercial

I think he was a homosexual politician, going out collecting men and voters.

Correct

Pretty decent guy, I would say. I like him.

Obviously existed. He was an excellent liar. First or the best ever fraud.

Well his mum taught him well..

"i am pregnant, its not yours but I didnt cheat, i was shagged by God"

Superstar.:dance:

Oh I think she was the brains behind it for sure. Just an affair gone too far. No backing out now, might as well give him superpowers.

Wasn't it Saul of Tarsus (Paul the apostle) who spread the message of Christ?

Mary was a cheating slag who lied about God making her preggers so that Joseph wouldn't dump ha. Jesus was just a man.

omg I didn't copy your post I promise!

He made a good table by all accounts.

Its a miracle :o

god moves in mysterious ways

I think if he is/was real, he would have looked better than an NPC from Oblivion... thems my thoughts.

The bible is a story book before television, some went of and chose cats as gods.

As was every other perceived god ever. The more religious people are and the more they allow it dictate their lives- the more gullible they are and the less successful their economies - it holds people back.

As is the Koran and look at the trouble that is still causing in this day and age!

Me and my daughter came up with a theory on this earlier.

We were wondering, WHY would there be critically ill / crippled humans in the world of Harry Potter, if wizards could easily just go around hospitals helping? At the very least - we mused - they'd be able to heal something like a broken spine / paralysis no problem. Why would they let so many suffer? Surely at least one would say "screw the secret!" and help?

And then it hit us.

Jesus was a wizard. Thousands of years ago, he was the one who broke ranks and wanted to help humans. But then not only did they crucify him for it - but a huge cult built up around him, worshipping him, and thousand of years later billions of muggles STILL worship him, and there have been countless wars fought in his name with untold devastation.

And that is why wizards made a sacred pact to never meddle in the Muggle world. That's why no wizard will cure a dying human child, even though they could. The price was just too high :worry:.

Good theory

Anyone who abuses religion with their own twisted ideas will always cause trouble , it's the people that are the problem not the religion itself :nono:

I also think it's disrespectful when people rip Religion to pieces and mock it ,fair enough everyone has different views and a laugh and a giggle is one thing . But it's not nice to be rude about others beliefs even if you don't understand it :idc: .

Have you read the comments about Jesus and Christianity and you pass no comments but as soon as there is a negative comment on the Koran you object - rather one-dided don’t you think! You can’t object to criticism of one religion and not the rest and expect it to be relevant.

Fact is one particular religion is causing more problems in the world today than any other! It may be some people’s interpretation of the words to suit in some cases but in others the words speak for themselves.

"fair enough everyone has different views"

this is a problematic line

Its not up for debate that gods exist and people can walk on water and heal sick people by mind power

People believe stuff like that because their parents brainwashed them as they were brainwashed. Its not based on evidence or fact its nothing more than superstition

just as people dont walk under ladders, dont break mirrors, dont put shoes on a table, touch wood etc

and indeed all of that is fine if its personal but not in schools, not in government.

I agree LT. People can believe in what they want but it should never be via indoctrination or force. Unfortunately it often is. Religion and superstition are pretty much the same thing with people relying on some unknown force to protect them if they do/don’t do certain things. And one thing is for sure it holds back people and economies.

It's easy for the West to feel superior, but we shouldn't really.
Islam is roughly 500 years younger than Christianity. Christianity went persecuting and killing others for ages (Inquisition, crusades, converting whole nations by sword in Eastern Europe, Africa and in the New World, etc etc).
We grew out of that and religious wars and so will Islam one day.

Which fool taught you that?

That may be twosugars but the world in general has moved on. People are more educated than ever before and certain practices can’t be tolerated for the next 500 years to allow people to ‘catch up’. People know better now and anyone living in the West or any country that has communication with the rest of the world is exposed to that.

You have a point. But I wonder if that makes much difference. As we see it probably doesn't, so something else could be at play. Maybe some religions (those who take a dim view of non-believers in at least some of their scriptures) have to go through a violent period? We know demagogues will use religious justification wherever then can find it. Christianity has largely gone through that already, although some pockets of that intolerance still remain even if largely not violent. Maybe Islam simply has to go through that all the way too. I.e every interpretation that lends itself to violence used up and rendered futile? Just a thought.

Nobody, it's my own observation. So thank you for the compliment, Alf!

A scary thought and one we can’t just justify/excuse/tolerate on that basis - or any basis. Enough lives have already been lost/ruined through the centuries and now is the time to stop especially when based on religion alone.
