You know your quote could also apply to yourself as well. If you don't like all of the pros for Chrisitanity and all the positive folks on this board, why don't you get out and take YOUR POTTY MOUTH WITH YOU.

I'm still here after all of the bull**** I have to deal with from all of you guys, aren't I? Same with Brain. We can deal, you can't, you will actually use ignore or just not read my posts because you can't handle anyone in opposition to yourself. There is no "right" way to conduct things, get over not being the center of the world, you all have as much "wrong" with you as you believe I do.

Well that's the point isn't it, Santabot.

How often do the words of a christian actually reflect their actions?

Jesus and his father are both omnipotent, yet couldn't prevent his own execution. Isaac asks for pros and cons yet immediately ridicules anyone posting a con.

He choose not to prevent his execution....read your bible.

Christians words and actions often reflection each other. You just choose not to see it and you choose to expect that they should be perfect.

I've read the Bible.

Seems to me a man that can walk on water and heal the sick could come up with a better way of saving the world than by allowing himself to be crucified. And don't even get me started on God...the being who created the Universe with the snap of a finger chose the only salvation of man to be through the extreme and brutal suffering of his only child?

Brain it is OK not to believe in God or anything else. It is not OK to lampoon Christ Will you give a answer to the question that has been ask many times of you ??? Do you think that your Christian family is scum as you have called all other Christians ??? You say you would like to MAKE Christians admit they are wrong ! Do you think you have made any head way with that on this board ? The fact is you are doing just the opposite which is make people read their Bible and stick to their guns.

1. It's perfectly alright to say anything I want as long as it's not a threat of harm against another individual. It's call the First Amendment.

2. I already answered the question and had a brief discussion on the subject with either TBelle or Pocahontas...I forget which now. Either go back and look yourself or start paying attention on the first go around.

3. 4 votes non-christian votes....that's about 23.5% of the participants...considerably higher than the national average. You tell me if I've made any headway.

4. Reading the Bible is all it takes for most sane individuals to realize it's a work of fiction. We have similar goals whether you believe it or not.

It is your right to post what you think brain.
You have never in any post come out and said what you think of your Christian family ???
You have made no head way and you know it. The people that voted as they did you had nothing to do with now that is most laughable
As far as the Bible Sir it is your choice to not agree as most of this world does. I choose to believe because I have spent many years trying as you to disprove it and in the process I have come to totally believe in it. There is still time so pick up the tools and try to spend some time disproving it instead of attacking it that is all. Brain that is my opinion and you are most welcome to yours Sir.
Isaac

Brainsmasher, you assume too much in your statement "yet couldn't prevent his own execution". Of course he could. But that was not God's plan now was it? God's plan was something that satan did not expect. Satan assumed too much, and lost a great deal when God gave his only son for us, to establish a new covenant with man. What you see as an execution, others see as a victory in the most important battle in human history. Read the book, satan lost that day. big time.

You're god is omnipotent and the devil is powerless to stop him, why not just snap his fingers like he did when creating the universe instead of having his only son executed in quite possibly the most notoriously evil way of being put to death ever conceived by man?

Good question. The answer is simple. God abides by God's laws and satan doesn't. So God had to figure out a way to achieve victory while still keeping his word. While satan is not concerned with keeping his word, much less God's Word. He is a law breaker through and through seeking to defy God.

I think we all want to break laws and defy the authorities at some point in our lives. (usually our younger years) I used to race cars and motorcycles and it felt good breaking laws and in essence giving the fingers to cops for writing me tickets in the past. So I can relate. God doen't keep me from learning my lessions the hard way, even through that is not his preferred method for me.

And again, an all knowing and all powerful being couldn't come up with a better solution than having his only child brutally tortured and executed at the hands of a bunch of filthy apes?
