After so long of arguing people who use God to justify their own selfish beliefs, I am writing this against Christianity and why it is wrong.
To begin on Free Will and Homosexual marriage. God gave "Man" free will. That is the first indication of why women had no rights. It said MEN had free will. Not women. That is why back in those days, Women had very few rights. Free Will means you are free to be who and what you are. God created human beings, and bestowed this gift upon us, HIS children (remember, God is apparently a HE). But he left us 10 rules. Only 10 rules for us to follow. And they are, in the Catholic version : 1- I am the Lord thy God. Thou shalt not have strange gods before me. 2- Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain. 3- Remember thou keep the Sabbath Day. 4- Honor thy Father and thy Mother. 5- Thou shalt not kill. 6- Thou shalt not commit adultery. 7- Thou shalt not steal. 8- Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor. 9- Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife. 10- Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's goods. From : http://www.juntosociety.com/i_documents/catholic10.html All these empower god. For one, Sabbath Day, the day to Worship god. Honor Father and Mother, some parents out there are terrible, respect should be earned. Thou shall not Kill. Christianity doesnt have a problem with that *Cough*Crusades*cough*Death penalty*cough*. Adultry and Coverting Neighbours wife is the same overall thing, being faithful. Meaning to be faithful to another person. You shall not steal, yeah. Christianity has had no problem with stealing.. Afterall, Christians only attacked Jerusalem to steal it from the muslems. Thats not bad at all, right? Expecially since it was the Church that did it. Keep holy the Sabbath, No strange gods before me, and name in vain. All empowers a supreme monarchy. And like George Carlin says, Coveting items gets the capitalist economy running. Someone gets a cool new car, you want one too. It is sad when a Comedian, the meanest one, makes sense... Now why would God, the all loving, all good, all powerful superior power who loves his children so much, give us free will? He wants us to worship him on free will? So, even though every day he ends up sending more and more of his "Children" to burn and suffer for eternity. That is loving right? Why doesnt he come down from Heaven, in his majestic being, and show us all him. Prove to us he is real? Prove to us there is a god when so many dont follow him. Does he enjoy seeing his children banished to the depths of Hell? I dont know, but that doesnt sound like love to me. Even more, why would he plant landmines in us? Homosexuality is now proven to be from a chemical in the brain. So to me, it seems like God is treating us like test mice. Saying we have free will, and he loves us, but giving us an attraction to something he does not want. Does he want those with that chemical to suffer of not having any attraction to the opposite sex? Live alone forever? Doesnt sound like an all-loving god to me.. Why would a god give their children the one way attraction then say it is wrong? It seems he wants to use us as lab mice. Does god enjoy having some of us go to Hell for having a simple emotion. An emotion he offers nothing to beat it. He doesn't seem to want everyone to be heterosexual, he has not done anything about it yet... Christianity I find to be a rule out of Fear. When you hear the Biblical stories, don't they create a dark image? Lead you to believe there is darkness and evil everywhere, but he is the only redemption from it. For example, the story about the man, Jobe I think? The one who had a great perfect life. God and the Devil spoke, and the Devil said to god, that he would not worship his name if he was not so well off. So God destroyed everything of his, and put rashes and such on his body. And he still worshipped his name. And yet it continues. And it never gets better for him. Does this sound like a loving god? Does this sound like what a God would do? And if it was true, chances are he was confused, thinking Satan was the one doing it. God shows you how dark and evil the world is, and how much evil there is. But says if you worshp him, you will be in heaven forever. If anything is true, it is that Fear is the most persuasive thing to the human mind. And a group of guys from old times decided to use that to learn a way to control people back then. So many stories just prove God is using fear to rule. And ruling of fear is wrong. If God is suppost to be perfect in every way, why does he let his children burn? Why does he hurt his children? Why is he so cruel and mean to people? To me, this all proves that Christianity could have been just a group of people wanting to learn to control people. And it worked too. I myself am Agnostic. I believe if you live your life doing what you feel si right, without hurting or harming anyone, you will go to Nirvana (Heaven, Valhalla, etc, any superior ethereal plane). It all stands to make Males superior, to make people fear change, to make you waste your life on the wrong things. So before you say it is GOD who says Homosexuality, Abortion, etc is wrong, think it over. Can you speak for god? Can you be sure that that God is real? Can you really use his words? Shouldnt god speak for himself? I wrote this because I am sick and tired of people saying it is God who says Abortion adn Homosexual marriage is wrong. If you have a problem with homosexual marriage or abortion, USE FACTS. Stop using religon from a 2000 year old book.

So many people that surround me will back their beliefs, such as "preserving the sanctity of marriage," on religion. It makes me very angry. I encourage them all to think, and not constitute their opinions on religion, just as I encourage everybody. It also angers me when people ignore solid evidence, such as Carbon dating, and still support the creation theory.

This is why I think government should do away with marriage all together and allow everyone to have civil unions with the same legal rights as marriage. Marriage should be an institution which is strictly religious or personal, to be accepted by whoever wants to accept it.

It was brilliant, and it worked. All gays ever really wanted was to be recognized by the states to have the same rights as heterosexual unions. Health benefits, the right to work and have a same sex partner and not fear for their jobs when they mention they have a same sex partner, the right to buy a home together, the right to visit in the hospital and make choices that any other legally united couple can make without having to see an attorney first and pay for legal representation to get the same rights. It was a brilliant move. Had the gays simply fought for civil unions...it would have been denounced by the straights. Now, by fighting for "marriage", they have gotten the homophobes and other people who don't believe in equal rights to give in to the demands they REALLY want. Smart move...very smart. How do I know? I'm gay...and I'm loving it. |

Good job OneRealAmerican. Exactly the point. And no homosexual should be denied those Marriage Benifits simply because they love someone of the same gender.

GOD AND COMPLAINING - Numbers 11:1 Now when the people complained, it displeased the Lord; for the Lord heard it, and His anger was aroused. So the fire of the Lord burned among them, and consumed some in the outskirts of the camp. GOD AND SUBSTITUTIVE SACRIFICE (part 1) - Genesis 22:2 Then God said, "Take your son, your only son, Isaac, whom you love, and go to the region of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains I will tell you about." GOD AND SUBSTITUTIVE SACRIFICE (part 2) - Leviticus 5:5-10 "And it shall be, when he is guilty in any of these matters, that he shall confess that he has sinned in that thing; and he shall bring his trespass offering to the LORD for his sin which he has committed, a female from the flock, a lamb or a kid of the goats as a sin offering. So the priest shall make atonement for him concerning his sin. "If he is not able to bring a lamb, then he shall bring to the LORD, for his trespass which he has committed, two turtledoves or two young pigeons: one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering. And he shall bring them to the priest, who shall offer that which is for the sin offering first, and wring off its head from its neck, but shall not divide it completely. Then he shall sprinkle some of the blood of the sin offering on the side of the altar, and the rest of the blood shall be drained out at the base of the altar. It is a sin offering. And he shall offer the second as a burnt offering according to the prescribed manner. So the priest shall make atonement on his behalf for his sin which he has committed, and it shall be forgiven him." GOD AND SUBSTITUTIVE SACRIFICE (part 3) Exodus 22:20 "Whoever sacrifices to any god other than the LORD must be destroyed." PHAROAH AND SACRIFICES - Exodus 5:17 Pharaoh said, "Lazy, that's what you are - lazy! That is why you keep saying, 'Let us go and sacrifice to the LORD." MENSTRUATION (part 1) - Leviticus 15:19-30 (NIV) When a woman has her regular flow of blood, the impurity of her monthly period will last seven days, and anyone who touches her will be unclean till evening. Anything she lies on during her period will be unclean, and anything she sits on will be unclean. Whoever touches her bed must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean till evening. Whoever touches anything she sits on must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean till evening. Whether it is the bed or anything she was sitting on, when anyone touches it, he will be unclean till evening. If a man lies with her and her monthly flow touches him, he will be unclean for seven days; any bed he lies on will be unclean. When a woman has a discharge of blood for many days at a time other than her monthly period or has a discharge that continues beyond her period, she will be unclean as long as she has the discharge, just as in the days of her period. Any bed she lies on while her discharge continues will be unclean, as is her bed during her monthly period, and anything she sits on will be unclean, as during her period. Whoever touches them will be unclean; he must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean till evening. When she is cleansed from her discharge, she must count off seven days, and after that she will be ceremonially clean. On the eighth day she must take two doves or two young pigeons and bring them to the priest at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. The priest is to sacrifice one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering. In this way he will make atonement for her before the LORD for the uncleanness of her discharge. MENSTRUATION (part 2) - Leviticus 20:18 If a man lies with a woman during her sickness and uncovers her nakedness, he has discovered her flow, and she has uncovered the flow of her blood. Both of them shall be cut off from her people. HEMORRHOIDS - 1 Samuel 5 (KJV) ...the hand of the LORD was against the city with a very great destruction: and he smote the men of the city, both small and great, and they had emerods [hemorrhoids] in their secret parts. VIRGINITY AND PUNISHMENT (part 1) - Exodus 22:16-17 If a man seduces a virgin who is not pledged to be married and sleeps with her, he must pay the bride-price, and she shall be his wife. If her father absolutely refuses to give her to him, he must still pay the bride-price for virgins. VIRGINITY AND PUNISHMENT (part 2) - Deuteronomy 22:20-21 If, however, the charge is true and no proof of the girl's virginity can be found, she shall be brought to the door of her father's house and there the men of her town shall stone her to death. She has done a disgraceful thing in Israel by being promiscuous while still in her father's house. You must purge the evil from among you. NUMBER OF PEOPLE (MEN) IN HEAVEN, SEX WITH WOMEN IS DEFILING (MALE VIRGINITY) - Revelation 14:3-4 And they sang a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders. No one could learn the song except the 144,000 who had been redeemed from the earth. These are those who did not defile themselves with women, for they kept themselves pure. PUNISHMENT FOR THEFT - Exodus 22:2-3 If a thief is caught breaking in and is struck so that he dies, the defender is not guilty of bloodshed; but if it happens after sunrise, he is guilty of bloodshed. DAY AND NIGHT CREATED BEFORE THE SUN - Genesis 1:3-5 And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light. God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. God called the light "day," and the darkness he called "night." And there was evening, and there was morning--the first day. PLANTS CREATED BEFORE THE SUN - Genesis 1:13 Then God said, "Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds." And it was so. The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. And there was evening, and there was morning--the third day. GOD FINALLY CREATED THE SUN ON THE FOURTH DAY - Genesis 1:14-19 And God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark seasons and days and years, and let them be lights in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth." And it was so. God made two great lights--the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night. He also made the stars. God set them in the expanse of the sky to give light on the earth, to govern the day and the night, and to separate light from darkness. And God saw that it was good. And there was evening, and there was morning--the fourth day. GOD(s) CREATED MAN AND WOMAN ON THE FIFTH DAY (AFTER THE PLANTS AND ANIMALS) - Genesis 1:24-31 And God said, "Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild animals, each according to its kind." And it was so. God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground." So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground." Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-everything that has the breath of life in it-I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning--the sixth day. GOD CREATED MAN BEFORE THE PLANTS AND ANIMALS - Genesis 2:4-8 This is the account of the heavens and the earth when they were created. When the LORD God made the earth and the heavens -- and no shrub of the field had yet appeared on the earth and no plant of the field had yet sprung up, for the LORD God had not sent rain on the earth and there was no man to work the ground, but streams came up from the earth and watered the whole surface of the ground -- the LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being. Now the LORD God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden; GOD CREATED THE ANIMALS - Genesis 2:19 Now the LORD God had formed out of the ground all the beasts of the field and all the birds of the air. GOD CREATED WOMAN AFTER THE PLANTS AND ANIMALS - Genesis 2:22 Then the LORD God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man. GOD AND CAIN REFER TO OTHER PEOPLE ON EARTH - Genesis 4:13-16 Cain said to the LORD, "My punishment is more than I can bear. Today you are driving me from the land, and I will be hidden from your presence; I will be a restless wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will kill me." But the LORD said to him, "Not so; if anyone kills Cain, he will suffer vengeance seven times over." Then the LORD put a mark on Cain so that no one who found him would kill him. So Cain went out from the LORD's presence and lived in the land of Nod, east of Eden. GOD CREATED THE RAINBOW FOR THE FIRST TIME - Genesis 9:13 “I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth.” GOD GOT TIRED - Genesis 2:2 By the seventh day God had finished the work he had been doing; so on the seventh day he rested from all his work. GOD CAN'T GET TIRED - Isaiah 40:28 The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. GOD'S FLAT EARTH (part 1) - Isaiah 40:22 He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth, and its people are like grasshoppers. He stretches out the heavens like a canopy, and spreads them out like a tent to live in. GOD'S FLAT EARTH (part 2) - Revelation 7:1 After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth to prevent any wind from blowing on the land or on the sea or on any tree. GOD'S FLAT EARTH (part 3) - Revelation 20:7-8 When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth--Gog and Magog--to gather them for battle. GOD'S FIXED EARTH (part 1) - 1 Chronicles 16:30 He has fixed the earth firm, immovable. GOD'S FIXED EARTH (part 2) - Psalm 93:1 Thou hast fixed the earth immovable and firm ... GOD'S FIXED EARTH (part 3) - Psalm 96:10 He has fixed the earth firm, immovable ... GOD'S FIXED EARTH (part 4) - Psalm 104:5 Thou didst fix the earth on its foundation so that it never can be shaken. GOD'S FIXED EARTH (part 5) - Isaiah 45:18 ...who made the earth and fashioned it, and himself fixed it fast... GOD STOPS THE SUN SO JOSHUA CAN CONTINUE FIGHTING - Joshua 10:13 So the sun stood still, and the moon stopped, till the nation avenged itself on its enemies, as it is written in the Book of Jashar. The sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day. THE BIBLE ON TRUTH (part 1) - Psalm 19:7 "The testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple." THE BIBLE ON TRUTH (part 2) - Psalm 119:130 "The unfolding of Thy words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple." GOVERNMENT AND TAXES (part 1) - Mark 12:17 “Give to Caesar what is Caesar's and to God what is God's.” GOVERNMENT AND TAXES (part 2) - Romans 13:1-7 Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, he who rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and he will commend you. For he is God's servant to do you good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword for nothing. He is God's servant, an agent of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer. Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also because of conscience. This is also why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God's servants, who give their full time to governing. Give everyone what you owe him: If you owe taxes, pay taxes; if revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; if honor, then honor. FAITH AND WORKS (part 1) - James 2:14 What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? Can faith save him? FAITH AND WORKS (part 2) - James 2:17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. FAITH AND WORKS (part 3) - Ephesians 2:8,9 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. UNBELIEVERS - Acts 3:23 "And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear the prophet, shall be destroyed." "

I put it here because I decided to write this when someone used God to justify anti-gay marriage. And that made me write it. I have made a thread, with a link here in religon.
