I know i was born into it, now i take the good lessons which are few and far apart and discard the "prejudice-fear-mongering-bullshit and ignorance" |

I think that between religious indoctrination and military indoctrination, we have a big problem with good people never getting a chance to shine in life or form their own thoughts. SAD. Very sad.

It's a progressive christian church with 2million+ baptised. Whats wrong with that? |

Won't help you though, Gods Word is true to the core, and everything this man said has gone against the Word of God. John 3:3-7; 3 Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” 4 Nicodemus said to Him, “How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?” 5 Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. 6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7 Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’ Peace be with you, may you all seek, and may you all find, may be peace with you in Christ Jesus, amen. |

Who cares if these 3rd world poverty stricken families can't afford to feed their 4th, 5th or 10th child! Most will eventually grow up and be good little Catholics and tithe 15% of their hard earned pittance because they won't get into 'heaven.' It selfishly prays (yes, pun intended) on these people and are happy to take money that people should use to provide food, shelter, and basic medical care, or better yet-prevent pregnancies they can't financially care for!

He warned about Gehenna, a burning, maggot-infested landfill. This is where Roman armies discarded the corpses of Jerusalem's citizens (at least the ones who hadn't already eaten each other). Jesus has come to *save* us, not destroy us. |

The bible was written 2000years ago, even then those werent the direct words of jesus, but THE GOSPEL. In all the time passed , the rewrites and new editions, so much has been forgoten or changed. How do you know who to believe and what. Which religion or sect of a religion has it right and why do all religious people think their religion is right. |
