The British Secret Service became number 1 in the world,the day they stole a black crystal ball made of Obsidian(black volcanic rock)and brought it to England!!!The crystal ball originally belonged to the Incas(pagan native Americans from modern day Peru)!!! |

[/size] the first one is a beautiful wooden sculpture that shows the devotion and creative skills that the Yourba people have poured into depicting these "material representations" of Universal SPiritual Forces , to help them to concentrate their prayers, (a.k.a. Spiritual ENergies" on. the 2nd picture is not an idol, but a Spiritual article used in Ifa divination. i dont see why any of these objects should exemplify human characterisitcs of speech , hearing and understanding We are Pagans. we do not do man-worship, like some people. . 1 Like |

PAGAN 9JA: The book you are talking about is a hoax. I'm an atheist but this book was written by people who have an axe to grind with the current British royal family, and they use this made-up claim about descent from Jesus to make their own claim to the throne of the UK (I'm talking about the Stuart family, whose dynasty ended about 1714) They have absolutely no evidence for what they say and rely only on peoples' fascination with grand conspiracies to get some attention. |

Long before the christians lied to us that oil will one day finish,and we will go back to making fire with sticks and stones like Captain Caveman,the native American Indians were using the urine of a particular water buffalo to light their lamps,because it was so flammable!!! |

[/size] Frosbel, can this useless dumb idol below speak, hear or even understand all the scrap you spew at it? Ofcourse, you have a preference for the white skinned idol as opposed to the dark skin idols that reflect your cultural roots and identity. You can worship a dead white man all you like, it's not gonna make you white. We can see how much you despise yourself. Tufiakwa! What a tragedy! 2 Likes

plaetton: I most certainly did read the book! It was interesting but just not based on anything that could be independently corroborated, and therefore, pure speculation. I don't believe much of what the book asserts. |

When Indian girls in Calcutta wanted to give birth,Mother Teresa insisted that they shouldn't use any drug to numb the pain,because the pain will bring spiritual cleansing!!!Most of these girls who were under aged eventually died from the pain!!! |

Niflheim: When Indian girls in Calcutta wanted to give birth,Mother Teresa insisted that they shouldn't use any drug to numb the pain,because the pain will bring spiritual cleansing!!!Most of these girls who were under aged eventually died from the pain!!! yes she was a missionary after all. her primary aim: she wanted to connvert many of the orphans to her faith. this is because the North-Eastern Bengal region where she was posted had very few xtians. most of the xtians werre concentrated in SOuth Western Indian territories of Goa and parts of Kerala. |

onetrack: Even if you do not agree with their conclusions, the book was well researched. The authors presented facts and documents.It is left for the reader to reach whatever conclusions they are comfortable with. Much of Dan Brown's work was based on that research. The authors of Holy blood , holy grail actually sued Dan Brown for copying their materials, although the courts ruled in favor of Dan Brown. |

The pagans living in the european country side,made herbal remedies for sores and infections,this was at a time when all the Catholic monks like Dom Perignon,were busy making sparkling wine and champagne in the monastery,to create more drunkards for christ!!! 1 Like |

For those who never knew,Dom Perignon,was originally a christian monk,and his speciality was champagne,so they named the bottle after him.Yet Mary Slessor claimed that it was my ancestors who were the drunkards.......................RUBBISH!!! 1 Like |

On a very serious note, Jesus called Himself the Way so it is not surprising that there are followers of His who called themselves followers of the Way. I think the appelation Christian was a more accurate description of the newly-founded group. |

I want to thank everyone who has made contributions to this discussion. I have have learnt a lot today and gained more insights from the various posts on this topic. To the so-called professed Christians here, you refused to answer the questions I asked in my initial post. Some self-acclaimed Christianity Champions have been dancing around this topic while exhibiting pretentious intellectual gymnastics. Please answer the questions I asked and stop throwing unnecessary missiles. I asked these questions because I need honest answers. Thank you for your time. 1 Like |

*Coughs* ahem, many people have done a lot of rubbish in the past in the name of their religion (doing what God did not send them), even the bible did mentioned that false prophets shall come to steal the flock. Looking at Nigeria alone, you can see so many fraudulent pastors running lose (when they should actually be behind bars - with the keys thrown away). But i want to believe there are real christians that are not disgrace to christianity, but the evil ones are trying their best to EDGE THEM OUT. That is my own 2cents. If i have offended any human being here, then they should forgive me. I usually say things the way i see it - not necessarily to please anyone. |

nep2ra: I have been meaning to discuss this issue with enlightened and intelligent folks on this forum. Years ago while studying the Bible, I came across these verses which made me challenge Christianity as practised today and its categorization as a religion. Apostle Paul who wrote two-thirds of the New Testament and who most Christians base their doctrines and beliefs on called himself something other than a Christian. Let's look at these verses. ... subscribing. Don't be too quick to close the thread in one day. Please, llow others to find it, contribute and answer your questions. |
Re: Is Christianity A Fraud? by nep2ra(m): 12:57am On Nov 02, 2012 |
okeyxyz: @nep2ra, How are you doing today sir? First and foremost, let me correct you on the erroneous claim you made that I am making invalid arguments. The purpose of this thread is to engage intelligent and fine minds in a healthy debate with a view to answering the five questions I posed after my introduction. I assume you are intelligent and can clearly understand the point I'm trying to make. Please take time to read my introduction again and the following questions. Answer the questions if you can. If you can't, then make your contribution without resorting to unnecessary insults. Thank you. |

Ohibenemma: Jesus Christ said, 'I am the WAY, the truth and the life...' John 14;16. Thus, a follower of the WAY should be clear to you. If in doubt, as to the authenticity of any faith, you should be looking at Islam, which could take out passages from a book written long before the birth of their founder, copy and edit some truths in it to suit his purpose and pass it on to gullible minds as a revelation. E.g, the story of Abraham's sacrifice of Isaac being changed to Ishmael.guess who was the "way,truth and life" in the centuries before jesus- you guessed right.Mithra existed long before jesus.he has twelve disciples,was born of a virgin,died and arose on the third day and was called "the way,truth and life" |
