Really? Where did I go wrong?
Why does the God of Abraham need to impregnate some poor girl, birth himself through her, kill himself and resurrect himself?
Why indeed but a wrong understanding of what took place.
Most of you pat yourselves on the back with the arrogant idea that you have “the one true path of salvation”. By your reckoning, the best God can do is "save"10-15 per cent of his own children.
That is pretty funny coming from a Mormon and Moslem apologist. Are you one of the 144,000?
Watch this video and tell me it isn’t compelling and factually accurate. Take your time. Watch it all and turn it up. Talk about faiths that limit the number of ‘saved’.
And of those saved, are they the best portion of humanity? Would I ever even consider of spending eternity with people of the sort as “booklover”, “Versimilitude” and “ibkc”? [LaMar shakes head no]
You’ll get used to us. How could you not love someone with the handle booklover? Her being correct just adds to her beauty.
For the rest, God has created a devil spook, and a place called Hell, so that he can burn and fry the rest of humanity… Nice folks like “Sister Amy” and Richard Dawkins are supposedly going to find that their destination, who I’d much rather end up with.
Sister Amy and Dawkins are ideologically opposed. Dawkins would call her misguided and Amy would call him Kafir.
Did God create the billions of people with the idea that he was going to torture most of them? If so, he’s a sadist and he’s nobody I want to give any respect to on principle. …
You really need to watch that video.
And what about this devil? Why not just kill the devil and be done with the whole business? In the book of Job you see God meeting with the devil in various board-of-directors … in the mythical flood (that never happened). Why not just kill the devil and stop all the trouble he causes?
If you don’t believe anything why do you argue for the Muslim god and his messenger? Your issues are other than Catholic.
None of this Christianity stuff makes any sense at all. … Christianity is such a laughably transparent fraud … could possibly take it seriously. I thank God (if he exists, which I doubt) that I was not born into a Christian family.
If your intelligence is insulted it is not by accusation and I know of no one including myself that has insulted you in a personal way.
Many non-Catholics have no respect for our
wafer as some call it, but offense is taken at an accurate if not respectful description of the Mormon revelation. Correct me if I am wrong that you admitted you do not believe Smith did as he said.
Simply put Catholic/Christians claim a fulfillment of the Jewish text without any abrogation of it. Jews shouldn’t be ideologically offended with our view because we have changed nothing of what they still feel as not having been fulfilled. They are welcome to correct me if I am wrong here.
Mormons claim a new testament to be associated with the New Testament. It has little to do with faith that it is unsupported by either the OT or NT or physical fact so personal offense is unwarranted for pointing out inconsistencies with your ideology. Other than the past doctrinal poligimy and racist views Mormonism is generally non-violent and that goes a long way.
The Muslim claim is most bizarre because they offer a complete ideological re-write of the OT and NT while claming to accept all that came before. Logically the time after and error within the Koran is rejected unless you suspend total reality their claim is true that even the Dead Sea scrolls are irrelevant as legitimate support to prove the accuracy of the OT if not the validity.
There is no logical reason not to believe the words and actions of Christ are true as recorded in the Gospels. None. For the same reason I fully accept the Qur’an as exactly what Mohammed said and did. If Muslims accept it, I accept it. Mohammed is among the rank of Joseph Smith and Jim Jones with regard to truthfulness and character with one exception. Mohammed really was visitied by a spirit I am convinced was Satan.
The remaining non-Abrahamic people make no claim on these scriptures (God) one way or another but have totally different and largely non-violent belief systems which is due respect for the non-violence.
What is the difference between your scoffing at my devotion to Mary and my comment about secret golden plates found by Smith? What is the difference between Sister Amy insisting with kindness that an imposter was placed upon the Cross and my question as to why Muslims so highly honor an admitted assassin, thief, and pedophile in Mohammed?
The difference is my ideology does not infringe upon you or Sister Amy’s ideology in anyway and the offense taken at legitimate accepted facts by your own faiths and ideologies is dismissed as arrogance and/or ignorance. Besides that, Islam poses a real threat to humanity due to its origin and only Truth, not war will avert it.
