sorry, let me correct it ,i am trying to show you were you are wrong in your self worship by beliving in a god that picks you, and inparts to you only some special info. god is not talking to you, in person or through his "written word" god is not real, you are decived, now you know.

And 'round and 'round we go...

ok

Jesus didn't write, because most folks in that culture didn't write. It was oral
culture.

the jews had a oral tradition its was written down it is called the mishna, you can find many thing in there, you should try the zohor also, also the tulmid is a good set of oral wrightings to invest in.
I have no ideas what you're talking about. This isn't about child abuse.

ok, god is punishing man for what god did not protect man for in the begianing. the child should not be blained in any or this.
also god as the ultra father had sex with mary, to produce jesus, and all though it is cleaned up in the christians view, by having the wholey gost overshadow mary, she still conceved thru god impregnating her.

also, god in the garden with adam, god was not tuthfull with adam, he also allowed the serpent in the garden with adam and eve even before the knew what was right and wrong, even you can see that was a crappy thing to do. god pimped out man to the seperant, just so they would fall so he could get them to love him because he was going to sacrofice himself to keep himself from killing and damming man forever. and even till this day the serpent is still haveing a go at man in the guize of religion. you belive that god is good. maybe you needs some time to rethink this.

Vomit.:drool:

ok some help here, are you saing that what i wrote was vomit? like nastyness from deep inside of me spewing out,or are you saying that in the middle of your typing a responce you actuealy vomited. like in to your lap anf on your keyboard?

because, i hope your not coming down with somthing,

maybe in the presiance of your dogmas reproch you vomited out the belly full of lies that religion has forced down your through

Proselytization is prohibited here.
again sorry, i was hoping that you would cast aside your error prone dogma for a more relistic understanding of how the human mind has a special place for myth making. :shout

"Most Christians" are members of the Roman, Orthodox, and Anglican bodies, none of which subscribe to sola scriptura.

Sola scriptura (Latin ablative, "by scripture alone") is the doctrine that the Bible is the only infallible or inerrant authority for Christian faith, and that it contains all knowledge necessary for salvation and holiness. Consequently, Sola Scriptura demands that only those doctrines are to be admitted or confessed that are found directly within or indirectly by using valid logical deduction or valid deductive reasoning from Scripture. However, Sola Scriptura is not a denial of other authorities governing Christian life and devotion. Rather, it simply demands that all other authorities are subordinate to, and are to be corrected by, the written word of God. Sola scriptura was a foundational doctrinal principle of the Protestant Reformation held by the Reformers and is a formal principle of Protestantism today (see Five solas).

if you belive that the bible is infallable, or that the chruch is infallable it is the same thing your belife/faith is in the workings of mear men. and men screw things up. if you draw a line down the middle of christadom you will see that both sides dont think the other side is going to go to heaven, they even take joy in it. christians dont even like other christians. they rot from the inside out. this is the body of christ? this is what jesus died for?

More vomit.:drool:

man get a bucket,

Proselytization is prohibited here.

sorry, you serve a god that is right and wrong, up and down, good and evil, he can say one thing and do another, followes no rules and requiers all to follow the ones he makes. is real but hidden, is light but lives in darkness, profecess love but give hell. i am asking you to stop playing around, and wake up, belive, belive in what is real not what other men say is real. i am not asking you to follow me, or to belive in things i belive in i am just asking you to put down the religious crack pipe. you have wasted so much of you life beliving in a lie.

Yet more vomit.:drool:

omg, do you need a doctor? your like the guy from the monty python movie "the meaning of life" the guy that vomits, and vomits untill he exploides.:drool:

the Jews didn't create their religion out of whole cloth either. Why don't you spew at them for a while?

i have in the past, do you belive in anything they belive in, would it be pertinate to the debate thread here? fyi the jews are just as wrong as the muslem, and christians.

Great, witty comeback! I'm completely undone!
wate dont vomit again.

More vomit.:drool:

to late, what did you eat? well atleast its not dieareah. you dot have that symptom to do you?

You're projecting again. It's not healthy.

i guess you got dieareah too.

Sos' my shirt, but it's the only way I can wear it properly.
i am glad to see that thru all this you still have jokes:yes:

Cause when you get as old as god is, you need to make notes to yourself often so you can remember. I know, I do it all the time LOL (though I'm not as old as god of course!)
Or you need a very long string...

Why do you think "God needs a Bible?"
i dont think god wuld need a bible, when you have childrun you dont give them a group of storys sorta about yourself and pass it on to your friend to give to your kids

i think religion needs a bible
god could be possible with out a bible but religion could not. religion needs a bible to point to why it is important to be religious.

for christians salvation does not have to have a bible to take place, but there religion needs a bible for reffrence, if there were no bible there would be no need for the refiramation, or joseph smith wrighting the morman bible, or the johova wittnesses beliving that jesus came in 1914 and is in the hemilayas right now.

Then why even bother to ask the question?
because i belive that men createded god, and as the makers of god, man has had to form a bible to have some semblance of understanding of how to contune to make god for each new geniration. i do not belive the church is holy, or ran by god.

Just to play devil's advocate.....
why does god need to explain himself to man?
If you had children, wouldn't you want them to know you?

and why does he feel compelled to expaine hinself in code?
Not in code so much as poetry. Because our limited language can't describe Him literally.

i do have kids but i will not send them to hell over my inability to explain myself.

i get that religion is an feeble attempt to conect to god, the problem is i dont belive that we as humans can contain the true ideal of what god is, i think that we get stuck with our own understanding of what we think god is, and then we mix in our wants and needs and presto changeo jesus is magic. we fall victim of trying to solve for x, when we think we understand what y is, and we dont know ourselfs well enough. our lack and our wants shap our needs, our need feeds our fear, our fear drives us to search. and with out answers we fill in the blank spaces. and god becomes a book, or a religion. or a movement. and we in our shallowness get pulled along and by the feel of that pull think we find god. we can offer god nothing, when god entertains the ideal of man he lessens himself. man is a reminder that god is not great, or holy, or loving, or kind.

For future reference, I would very much appreciate it if you don't reply inside the quote box. :)

Well, you didn't ask about that, and I wasn't addressing it. I don't believe in such a God, and even if I did, I would refuse to worship it.

the problem is i dont belive that we as humans can contain the true ideal of what god is, i think that we get stuck with our own understanding of what we think god is,
Agreed, which answers your question about the Bible.

man is a reminder that god is not great, or holy, or loving, or kind.
I do not share your misanthropy.

God deosn't need to do that. But we seem to need to explain God to ourselves.
"Code" is the best we can come up with, using verbage that is inadequate to the task.
