[QUOTE=sgman91;24092625]Listen, if you don't like a religion itself that's fine, but if your going to call yourself a Christian than you should actually try and practice what it teaches. You can't just say, "Oh hey, I believe the Bible is true and all, but this part is stupid so I'm going to ignore it." without some sort of justification other than "I don't like."[/QUOTE] I was christened so I'm a real Christian. I think that some of the bible is crap but I do believe in Jesus and god.
Everyone who is part of a religion is actually just creating their own forgery of the religion. None of it's followers actually follow the true [i]rules[/i] it sets down, and so all of them would be going to hell if hell actually existed (it doesn't).
the extremists may not represent the whole group, but their credibility is lended from them.

Because Facepunch is full of elitist, liberal, Atheist faggots.

[QUOTE=Archy;24092924]you're just a gay furry[/QUOTE] ad hominem much?
[QUOTE=I Broke The Sun!;24092782]No you're not dumb. Most Christians were raised that way and probably don't have any reason to question it. It's not like it's a big part of their lives.[/QUOTE] That's okay with me, they can believe in whatever the fuck they want, just don't let it interfere with me. That's a basic idea of what I think.
[QUOTE=Archy;24092837]10 commandments arent in the book of matthew[/QUOTE] No shit, but the point still stands. He's committed adultery in the eyes of Jesus, and adultery breaks the seventh commandment. What's the point of having holy scripture if you're just going to ignore bits of it?
[QUOTE=Kybalt;24092964]ad hominem much?[/QUOTE] it's facepunch what do you expect

Because whether you like it or not, the laws of your religion state that these things are bad and by calling yourself a Christian, you must abide by these rules. If you do not, you are not a true Christian, more or less, and therefore shouldn't be calling yourself a Christian. You don't want to fallout from the beliefs of Christians, don't call yourself one.

ITT: The majority of people say that they're fine as long as nothing is pushed on them, some guys makes an ITT statement, repeat ad nauseum.
[QUOTE=Archy;24092987]it's facepunch what do you expect[/QUOTE] smart people who use good arguments and dumb people who dont. guess which one you are.
FUN FACT: most of the rules are in the law part of the bible, in the old testament. jews, christians and muslims all agree on the old testament, therefore, if you're going to bash on christians for stuff in the old testament, you're also going to be bashing on jews and muslims [editline]06:18PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Kybalt;24093149]smart people who use good arguments and dumb people who dont. guess which one you are.[/QUOTE] i'm sorry are you taking everything with equal weight again

[QUOTE=xVENUSx;24092801]I was christened so I'm a real Christian. I think that some of the bible is crap but I do believe in Jesus and god.[/QUOTE] Just because you were christened does make you automatically a real Christian. This is one of the reason I don't like Christianity, or even Judaism, and probably most religions, but a lot of people in the Western world say that they are Christian or whatever, and that they believe in God. While it may be true that you believe in God, you also have to agree with the teachings of the bible. You are only a real Christian if you follow the bible, or if you have a reason not too, like you have a different interpretation. But just believing in god, and just going to church doesn't make you Christian, and I find that most people are like this in the Western World, with really any religion, but mainly in Christianity and Judaism.
[QUOTE=|FlapJack|;24092470]because christians support bestiality instead of masturbation "Your seed would be better in the belly of a beast than spilt on the floor" or something along those lines.[/QUOTE] practically 90% of the bible is parable with a moral and the rest are letters [QUOTE=iktomi;24092528]I don't believe in religion.

He was then smitten by God. This isn't technically masturbating, but it covers the fact that instead of using your seed, you just let it fall to the ground and get wasted(which happens after masturbation). So fuck, you don't even have to masturbate to go to hell, just using the pull-out method will do it.[/QUOTE] old testament, wrong religion [QUOTE=xVENUSx;24092801]I was christened so I'm a real Christian. I think that [b]some of the bible is crap[/b] but I do believe in Jesus and god.[/QUOTE] bingo, you should read just about none of the bible besides the story of christ in a literal sense [QUOTE=Detective P;24093015]Because whether you like it or not, the laws of your religion state that these things are bad and by calling yourself a Christian, you must abide by these rules.

Simple really. Extremists have the loudest mouths. Same applies for Islam, Judaism, Conservatism, Liberalism, and pretty much any religion or mode of thinking.
[QUOTE=Roll_Program;24093021]What does that have to do with anything in this thread?[/QUOTE] You said christians were weird, not nearly as much as gay furries to most people, it was an actual counterargument
[QUOTE=that1dude24;24093192]Why does that make a difference?[/QUOTE] i'm just saying, threads with stuff from the old testament always seem to be targeted at christianity, despite 2 other religions using the old testament
