[quote:Anonymous Coward 12623026:MV8xODE2MzI3XzMwMjM0MDU1XzJERTU2NEND] [quote:Ohwell:MV8xODE2MzI3XzMwMjMzODY1Xzk1MEM1RTBF] [quote:Anonymous Coward 4585656:MV8xODE2MzI3XzMwMjMzNzYyXzM0OEM5MA==] [quote:nightowl:MV8xODE2MzI3XzMwMjMzNjYxXzk4RkZCNzFE] I have been a Bible believing Christian for over 35 years. I have spent time in church and out of church. I have spent years doubting my faith. And I have also spent years where I have experienced the true Spirit of God/Christ flowing through my life. There are major differences within the churches and denominations as to whether or not they believe Scripture is the perfect word of God or not. Some Christians believe it is error-free and others believe it has some errors; but that the overall flow of the stories and documents reveal that God exists, that he is real, and that we have a spiritual significance while on earth and in the afterlife. Christians are who they are because of their spiritual relationship with God and with Christ. True Christians have accepted the spirit of God/Christ within them. There is always a struggle between the divine nature and the human nature within all Christians. However, if you watch a true Christ-seeking Christian over time, you will see that -- over the years and over time -- they become more and more Christlike. It is a life-long spiritual process. And, if I may say so -- it is WORTH IT! Believing that the Bible is error-free is not a requirement to be a Christian. It may be a requirement to be a member of a certain denomination. [b]So this is what I am trying to say: If you want to know what Christianity means -- then start your own search. Seek Christ yourself. A good place to start is with the question.... "Who is Jesus Christ and what did he teach?" Start with that question - because that is the question that is most central to Christianity. Start reading the books of the Bible that tell about the life and teachings of Christ. Read the books of Matthew and Mark to start. Write down your thoughts and questions. Keep a journal of those thoughts and questions as you read. See what happens. Start with Christ and get to know the spirit of Christ (the Holy Spirit); and the Holy Spirit will lead you into all truth. Seek and you will find. [/b] [/quote] It's amazing what lengths people will go to in order to cling to their irrational beliefs. [/quote] Really amazing. There are many, many cultures unable to read and write. So the lack of this ability, which doesnt come naturally, is supposed to be what will probably lead them to hell. Whose benefit does reading the bible serve again? State or the individual? If the creator felt they needed that ability, he would have given them but he didnt and so it seems that TO READ to know about the creator is not a requirement he demands. [/quote] And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come. Matthew 24:14 , Never hear of Missionary's ? [/quote]

I got this video sent to me and thought it was hilarious and probably true. I personally do not own a bible and so cannot check the citations that run along the bottom of the screen but hey if you do I'd love to hear the results.
Yeah I'm still labeling this thread as "proof" because religions in general contradict themselves all the time. Like... talking a lot about love except hating all those who disagree with them so it would not surprise me at all to find that the Bible which was patched together over something like 3000-5000 years by something like 50-100 different authors would have more than a few contradictions. That's just logical.
Bring on the bad karma, judging people on this site based on a little coloured bar in the corner is just plain ludicrous anyways.
