Oh look another circle wank over religion.
Really?
This again?
Fuck sake this place is worse than /sci/ and the onslaught of spam bots.
[QUOTE=Richard Simmons;23665386]The bible code.[/QUOTE]
Which passage?
Hey guis a single baby drowned from baptism! If [B]RELIGION[/B] was never made then this single baby would have never died thus this is the reason as to why we act like retards and spout retarded sayings about [B]RELIGION[/B] in hopes of making ourselves feel better about something.
Seriously, I'm an atheist but you don't need to go on blaming religion. The priest was just a retard.
[QUOTE=Eudoxia;23665400]It teaches misogyny, xenophobia, and even racism by saying black people are black due to a "curse from the Lord".[/QUOTE]
I agree with misogyny, but can you lead me to the verses that say anything about foreigners or black people?
[QUOTE=Oecleus;23665742][B]I agree with misogyny[/B], but can you lead me to the verses that say anything about foreigners or black people?[/QUOTE]
Any particular reason for this?

He means he agrees that the bible teaches misogyny.
Oh right.
I've got the cold, forgive my weak and feeble mind :ohdear:
[QUOTE=bravehat;23665801]Any particular reason for this?[/QUOTE]
Timothy 2:12 in particular, there are a few more, and one I can recall that says that women shouldn't speak in church.
[QUOTE=ohadje;23665301]I'm not fond with Christianity and never witnessed and Christian ritual/costume myself, but I'm quite positive that in baptism water are just lightly thrown at the baby? Or it's different with Orthodox Christianity?[/QUOTE]
Different Christian sects have different ways of baptizing. Baptists dunk the entire body under water - but when the person is a full grown adult.
Presbyterians, sprinkle water over you, either as an adult or a child, depending on the parents decision.
As for Eastern Orthodox, I'm unsure, but I'm guessing by the article, they dunk the whole body as a child.
Why does the baby have to be submerged down in the water? The few baptisms I've been to involved the priest using the palm of his/her hand to lift some water up on the baby's head. No possibility of drowning.
Oh well.

Different sects, different ways.
Some submerge, others sprinkle.
"Is he really supposed to be down there that long...?"
"Of course he is... Wait, I think he stopped moving..."
[QUOTE=Richard Simmons;23665139]The priest did it to save himself from raping the child, or from it being raped.
He did a good deed while doing a large sin. god bless god![/QUOTE]
Your avatar drives me up the bloody wall...
Seems a bit suspicious to me. You'd have thought a Priest - being a grown man - would know when a human being was suffocating. And then drowing.
"Judge, if God wanted that baby to be baptised, he would've guided my hands!"
I love how every thread even remotely about religion turns into a atheist circlejerk.
'hey look a new born baby, let's dunk it under water and cut off it's foreskin!!!111'
What year are we living in again?

How about you point out the "atheist circle jerk"
Of course people are going to criticize religion when its pointless traditions get someone hurt. If someone died from infection via acupuncture, everyone in the thread would be criticizing pseudoscience and homeopathic cures.

How would he cope in prison?
Babies don't inhale under water, it must have been dysfunctional.
[QUOTE=nullsquared;23665192]How can people possibly defend religion with shit like this?
Face it - if religion didn't exist, shit like this wouldn't happen. It doesn't matter if it's accidental, and it doesn't matter if it's an isolated case.[/QUOTE]
Neither would the Red Cross.
Or the Salvation Army.
Look at those twisted organizations! They must be stopped!
Get the YMCA too!
At least we're sure now the baby is not a witch.
