ALSO THE QUESION OR THE ISSUE IS NOT ABOUT MUHAMMED BUT ON THE VERSES QUOTED ABOVE.IF YOU WANT ANYTHING ON HIM, WE CAN ALWAYS CREATE ANOTHER THREAD AM STILL WAITING FOR THE MEANING OF THOSE VERSES. SO JESUS COULD ORDER KILLING OF PEOPLE. PRINCE OF PEACE INDEED |

When it comes to bullshit, big-time, major league bullshit, you have to stand in awe of the all-time champion of false promises and exaggerated claims, religion. Religion has the greatest bullshit story ever told. Think about it. Religion has actually convinced people that there's an invisible man living in the sky who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of ten things he does not want you to do. And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever 'til the end of time! But He loves you. He loves you, and He needs money! He always needs money! He's all-powerful, all-perfect, all-knowing, and all-wise, somehow just can't handle money! Religion takes in billions of dollars, they pay no taxes, and they always need a little more. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed. Results like these do not belong on the résumé of a Supreme Being. And for those of you who look to The Bible for moral lessons and literary qualities, I might suggest a couple of other stories for you. You might want to look at the Three Little Pigs, that's a good one. Has a nice happy ending, I'm sure you'll like that. Then there's Little Red Riding Hood, although it does have that X-rated part where the Big Bad Wolf actually eats the grandmother. Which I didn't care for, by the way. And finally, I've always drawn a great deal of moral comfort from Humpty Dumpty. The part I like the best? "All the king's horses and all the king's men couldn't put Humpty Dumpty back together again." That's because there is no Humpty Dumpty, and there is no God. None, not one, no God, never was. In fact, I'm gonna put it this way. If there is a God, may he strike all the users of this forum dead! See? Nothing happened. Nothing happened? Everybody's okay? All right, tell you what, I'll raise the stakes a little bit. If there is a God, may he strike me dead. See? Nothing happened, oh, wait, I've got a little cramp in my leg. And my balls hurt. Plus, I'm blind. I'm blind, oh, now I'm okay again, ![]() ![]() ![]() |

@ Reverse, for every stupid post you bring out, i have made it a decision to grant you the appropiate answer for it!! Now you rattle like a five year old child with this stupid post you just posted. As much as God is a consuming fire, he is as well as a God of mercy. As much as He is been benevolent of his mercy on you, dont let your childish babblings take a better judgement of your reasoning. I have told you before, and will say it again, if you dont respect your being let it stay at that ![]() IT IS A FEARFUL THING TO FALL INTO THE HANDS OF THE LIVING GOD!!!!!!!! ![]() Do not say you are not warned Reverend ![]() |
Re: How Would You Describe Jesus? by mrpataki(m): 4:26pm On Dec 14, 2006 |
@ babs787, What a shame that, you are totally dull of understanding, guess the protocol of always listening to what your alfas tell you without questioning the sensibility in it has rubbed on your intelligence over the years. Sorry i have answered your post previously, and will not further engage in frivolity and superflity of nothingness in addressing your stupidity!! |
Re: How Would You Describe Jesus? by gbadex1(m): 5:08pm On Dec 14, 2006 |
@ Rev, lol, Reverend. You are too much of a joke to even take serious. If you think religion's what u think it is, then what can we say about your Kinky Church? If i can recall, back then u tried incorporating Biblical verses into ur warped and false doctrine and then distorting and twisting these doctrines to your own liking. And when bari_kade revealed/tore your yansh open, and Christians didn't buy into your false, warped cult, you have since then adopted this anti-religion/Christian view/slogan. . . . . . .and i thought it was only 6yr old schoolboys that sulked that much when the i-won't- play-with-you-because-you-don't-want-to-play-with-me technique of manipulation doesn't work. You really are pathetic, Reverend. Like i once told, Get yourself a Life. And a Job. |
Re: How Would You Describe Jesus? by Reverend(m): 5:22pm On Dec 14, 2006 |
The only reason to incorporate bible verses in some of our teachings were to meet the needs of the people who had been brainwashed by Bible bashing biggots like yourself and Mr. Patakill! As I have said many times, the Bible is a book of fairy stories! |
Re: How Would You Describe Jesus? by mrpataki(m): 5:42pm On Dec 14, 2006 |
@ Reverse lol ![]() at first i was angry at your post, but now i know better that you are just a disgruntled element looking and desperately seeking for attention by all means. Hence you searched for a means to get that,and how did you achieve that: by distorting the ways of God you had once loved and cherished. Thank God am not the only one to have noticed your childish babblings over several posts, else would have thought that i was actually the insane one here. Guess with time you will incorporate another version into your perv'd up life. Cant wait for that. In the meanwhile, your gimmicks here no longer work, try a better version, or you could ask your great one (lucifer), who actually pulled the greatest staunt ever. You want to know about that? Well you will have to ask me about it ![]() |
Re: How Would You Describe Jesus? by Reverend(m): 7:18pm On Dec 14, 2006 |
@Klaptrappi I have no gimmicks. I am not the one who spends my time branding everybody a sinner based on the teachings of a book of fairy stories. You are the person who has taken it upon yourself to do that! What a ridiculous statement that I am distorting the words of God that I had once cherished. What have you been smoking? What words of God. There you go again with your ridiculous idea that the Bible is the word of God. It is the distorted word of man that you have decided to follow and nothing else. That you troll this forum and have decided to judge people on the basis of this utter dribble and nonsense is a very sad fact. You are typical of the slime bags that brand everything and everybody that has a different view than there own as being a cult. I am not surprised or angry. I have become used to people like you. People with pea sized brains and no education. Scum like you are behind many of the problems that we have today on this planet. You have plenty to say about everything but you never speak one word of sense or give one useful word of advice. You hide behind the meaningless and corrupted words of a book that was written to manipulate and control the thoughts and free will of man. Your micro sized brain has no capacity to reason or ask questions. You follow like a sheep and are capable of no independent thought. You are a robot who follows what you are told. It was people like you that allowed Hitler to become so powerful. People who without question put faith in one person without doubt or reason. The one person who murdered millions of innocent people. You are no different! There is no reason to ask you about anything else. You are a follower and you will never be a leader. You are not capable. You just do as you are told and take everything as being true without question. So, be a good little boy and follow the teachings of your book. It was after all written for people like you! The weak, uneducated and simple primitive beings! Finally, learn how to spell. I have noticed that your command of the English language is atrocious. This is definitely not a 'staunt' ![]() |
Re: How Would You Describe Jesus? by Ndipe(m): 10:37pm On Dec 14, 2006 |
A book of 'fairy stories' that is the bestseller of all bestsellers. By the way, "Reverend", why go by the name that is associated with Christianity if you have doubts on the veracity of the Holy Bible? |
Re: How Would You Describe Jesus? by gbadex1(m): 10:58pm On Dec 14, 2006 |
Language, Mr. Reverend, language. you seem to be getting frustated. you know, getting yourself a job is a more better and viable option than Kinky Cult. Observing from ur posts to me, you stated that you incorporated Biblical verses in your cult to meet the needs of people. Isn't that just as pathetic as an asskisser? Let's take a cue from that statement and others. From ur usual rantings, you believe the Bible to be a book of fairytales, and a lie, right? Now if u incorporate this same Bible into ur Kinky Cult, aren't u contradicting yourself? To satisfy the needs of people? so in other words, you compromise your doctrine to win a few cheap Brownie points with people. dude, by all ramifications, your asskissing credibility just went up a high notch. |

Re: How Would You Describe Jesus? by lafile(m): 9:54am On Dec 15, 2006 |
Reverend:Silly. You are quoting the best selling books of 2005 while we are talking about THE BEST SELLING BOOK OF ALL TIME. These books you listed may have been the rave in 2005, but who'ld buy them next year? People have been buying the bible for hundreds of years and they still haven't stopped. How many copies of Thomas Harris' Silence of the Lambs were sold last year? it was on the best sellers list a few years ago, remember? People risk their lives to smuggle the bible into some countries. I'm sure you would risk your life to smuggle the latest Harry Potter book into some country. Bible, book of fairy tales? you bet. |
Re: How Would You Describe Jesus? by Reverend(m): 10:38am On Dec 15, 2006 |
There is a big difference in books that people buy for themselves and books that are institutionally bought and provided to the public. If schools, churches, colleges, universities, hotels, courts and all the other places where Bibles are compulsory purchased would have to buy Harry Potter instead then of course this would change the figures. I am talking about books that people buy of their own free will with their own money. One of the biggest selling books of all time on this basis is 'The Diary of Anne Frank' The Bible Society's attempt to calculate the number printed up to 1975 produced the figure of 2,458,000,000. The first mass Bible printed was the Gutenburg Bible printed in 1455. If you take the years that have passed since 1455 (520 years) then divide the 2,458,000,000 into that, it gives us an average of 4.7 million copies per year. In the last ten years 250 million Harry Potter books have been sold or if you are bad at maths then this is 25 million per annum or ten times more than the Holeee Bible per rota. Hail Harry ![]() |
