Ah...... Well stop hijacking religious messages to make your morals. Good luck with that. No wishing upon a star for your matey.
As for understanding the morals of the bible how could you understand when you judge yourself morally superior to all humanity that came before you. The lack is in...
Far out . Pinocchio has a religious message if you dig into it. Lighten up. You lot better be careful . I don't think you have any idea how much of your world is built on my stories.
Other than the message that a person can't run away from God's plans, that's about it.
That's a pretty good lesson in itself. Of course you phrase it in a way that makes it seems simple. The lesson is that running away or trying to hide from our responsibilities is pointless they always catch...
I would have thought that a play set in the fading days of the Neo Assyrian Empire centered around the great city of Nineveh would be quite educational. Especially considering your damned country is still at war in that exact area against the descendants of those people.
Also a story about doing...
You lot are so damned shallow, your petty snide arguments do not even approach the real issues. To claim that you are morally superior to your forbears is asinine and lazy thinking. You refuse to address the real issues or to contend with the real problems and just return to your childish mantra...
“Men Have Forgotten God” – The Templeton Address
by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
More than half a century ago, while I was still a child, I recall hearing a number of older people offer the following explanation for the great disasters that had befallen Russia: Men have forgotten God; that’s why all...
Hi
Very clever, but it is not a win if you ignore the context of the Biblical outline.
The way you guys interpret things you would be accusing Shakespeare of promoting suicide with his "to be or not to be"
Hi
From an anthropological and sociological perspective, the theology of god made its presence known directly from one source.
Imagination.
Man has used it to his heart's desire since the dawn of time, and people often confuse it with reality.
This is a very simplistic argument that falls...
Hi
What i find strange is that you bang on only about the poor women and ignore that most men had just as few rights though out history. It does not fit the narrative that men have been the oppressors of women through out history so you alter the picture to hide the near equal suffering of men...
HI
Christianity did not GET POWER with constatine they were taken over by the state, That is why they should no longer be considered representive of what true christians believe. All the wars you bang on about were launched by men for political reasons using religion as the lever.
Peace
Hi
Here's what i don't get.
You said.......Second of all that’s very disingenuous to claim that Christians are not truly Christian if they support war. So you lot blame religion for war and then when i point out that true christians are opposed to war and politics you shoot me down as being...
Hi
I'm not sure why you would think that left or right come into it. Both sides are the same side in any real analysis of politics.
US war machine is mostly empowered by US Christian voters
This is the exact place that the supposed informed Bahai intellectual structure falls apart. You guys bang...
Hi
So you think that religion increased the rate of wars in the past. Other than just stating it do you have any reason to believe that religion has played any part that could not have been replaced by nationalism, Ethnicity, xenophobia or any other group identity applicable to the situation...
Hi
Do you really think that works.
This is a subject that has been written about from Socrates to our present day and you think your snide remarks at the surface of the issue have any weight with me. If we are going to get technical then if God exists anything he does is moral by definition...
Hi
So it was not political forces using religion as a lever in the manipulation of the public, Rather it was Religion using politics so they could kill each other. Well it is easy to see where you are coming from. Yet without religion we still seem to be as murderous and warlike. Strange...
Hi
For someone who said they didn't buy into the male patriarchal oppression narrative you sure spew their talking points over and over and over. It's a poor analysis of the past, you should read first hand accounts from history and not fully believe the lefty feminist propaganda, the truth is...
