[QUOTE=TyroneBiggum;19396428]Your opinion isn't a fact.[/QUOTE] Science is fact. :science:
No. And if he did exist, the Bible has been edited, rewritten, and censored so many times that it's depiction of him can't be anything close to accurate. For fucks sake, US and European churches have everyone convinced he was white.
[QUOTE=TyroneBiggum;19396428]Your opinion isn't a fact.[/QUOTE] And what you are saying is a true fact? Get to the fucking religion subforum.
[QUOTE=Bassplaya7;19396440]Science is fact. :science:[/QUOTE] Or theory.
When I was a child, not having been presented any opposing opinions, sure. After I hit the virile age of 6 years, I had already found conflicting statements in the bible itself (being one of the few christians to actually read the damn thing). By the age of 8, I could no longer believe it at all. At 21 years old, I finally figured out that it was all about power, much like most other organized religions, and that honestly, the pagans were closer to the right idea, separating and categorizing the forces that affect our world and the universe... I mean look at the Greeks. Their religion eventually was just a story to them and was pushed aside to give way to incredible advances in philosophy and technology. Remember, Christianity caused the Dark Ages, but it sure as hell didn't cause the Renaissance. [QUOTE=Sinbues;19396460]Or theory.[/QUOTE] I will take theory, a [i]possible[/i] answer, ANYDAY, over some bullshit blind "faith", written by men desiring control who couldn't tell lightning or a volcano from God's Wrath® Also hell is a bullshit concept invented by the Catholic Church, Satan is actually a pagan force that is NOT inherently evil and has nothing to do with God, and Jesus probably didn't exist.
the reason I dislike Christianity is because it compels people to do the whole, "hey! calling out all christians!" annoying prickery. Do you see Hindus, Muslims, Buddhists, Atheists doing the same? No. So why are you an exception?

[QUOTE=TyroneBiggum;19396428]Your opinion isn't a fact.[/QUOTE] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4E-_DdX8Ke0&feature=related[/media] Sagan is not fighting for or against the idea of a God. He is merely pointing out that nobody can prove or disprove the existance of a creator figure.
I believe in Jesus's status as God. But more oft than not, I want nothing to do with many denominations and/or churches (cough extreme baptist churches cough) and, honestly, I think that a lot of Christians these days don't get the real concepts and they're just into the whole shiny cross 'round my neck sort of thing.
Nope.
[QUOTE=TyroneBiggum;19396403]No, I just recently found Jesus and I want to accept him as my savior. I also recently started praying and he has been guiding me.[/QUOTE] Certain threads I treat them as a 50-50 chance to be a lie, or true. But what you're implying is making me think that this thread a lie more then truth. You suddenly believe in Jesus, so you make posts on Facepunch, smart idea.
To me, whether or not Jesus was a descendant of God is kind of irrelevant. I know that's the huge selling point of Christianity, but... isn't it okay to view someone as just a philosopher? Just an influential person? Why do people instantly assume someone has to be related to God to be of any importance? In a round-about way, I kind of find it insulting. It's just my opinion, but last time I checked, people really didn't care about your lineage all too much. Besides, like a user has stated before, why are people still trusting the bible? Not that it can't provide a source of comfort like any other holy book, but just that it's been translated countless times and compiled from honestly shaky testimony.
There is no[b] [i]God.[/i][/b]
Jesus spoke some good words, listen to them. The entire structure of Catholicism (or most religions for that matter) is silly, as you shouldn't have somebody breathing down your back telling you how to worship a [b]very[/b] abstract person/object [editline]12:02AM[/editline] So pretty much I fully support Christianity, but not the Christian church.
[QUOTE=TyroneBiggum;19396403]No, I just recently found Jesus and I want to accept him as my savior. I also recently started praying and he has been guiding me.[/QUOTE] Congratulations! You found Jesus, now go find some intelligence.
haha you are idiots for taking this thread seriously
[QUOTE=TyroneBiggum;19396492]Look at my first post again. Keyword: BELIEVE[/QUOTE] Well, you see, here on the internet we deal in facts, not blind belief in bullshit.
[QUOTE=Used Car Salesman;19396852]Well, you see, here on the internet we deal in facts, not blind belief in bullshit.[/QUOTE] Amen, brother, amen.
Please do not bring religion in this forum. All it causes is flame wars and massive banning. Everyone knows this is a Flying Spagetti Monster forum.
[QUOTE=Used Car Salesman;19396852]Well, you see, here on the internet we deal in facts, not blind belief in bullshit.[/QUOTE] The internet is more a deal with opinions no matter how true or ridiculous it is.
Thread in 2 wrong places at once. There is a religion forum aaaand facepunch has more atheist than christians. At least they are the cool ones who don't go around bashing religion. There are some like that Here but whacha gonna do? Kill them? No. Ontopic: I accept him
I do. Really. But why the fuck did you make a thread here, FP has 80% non Christians.
jesus didn't exist he's a fucking myth like king arthur and hercules
[QUOTE=Machk;19396282]I don't believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God, or that he was same "Saintly Man, who never sinned", in fact I find it hard to believe that he existed at all, all we have is one record of his existence, written by some guys during hard times. Jesus could even have been multiple men taking the same name. There's no proof and only blind faith. So, I don't believe in him.[/QUOTE] Same can be said about the rest of the Bible.
I'm just saying if you don't belied in god, what do you look up to in life besides rotting in the ground. I strongly believe there is a god and Jesus was real. How else can you explain the thousands if not millions pieces of evidence. And to all of you athiests god still loves you
Either this isnt going to end well, or it is going to go on for a long time. Also i dont entire believe, I have other made up religions :) but mainly i am focusing on science for now. Science RULES!!!!! Bill Bill Bill! Bill Nye the science guy -_-

Jesus did exist. That's all there is to it, there is no way he did not exist, but supernaturally? Most likely no.
[QUOTE=Jakobi;19396973]Jesus did exist. That's all there is to it, there is no way he did not exist, but supernaturally? Most likely no.[/QUOTE] it's called a myth bro.. did hercules exist too?
