"1 And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes. 2 And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, 3 Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains: 4 Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him. 5 And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones. 6 But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him, 7 And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not. 8 For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit. 9 And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many Mark |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 6933561 This is one of my favorites; "And God went on to say: “Let us make man in our image, according to our likeness, and let them have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and the domestic animals and all the earth and every moving animal that is moving upon the earth.” 27 And God proceeded to create the man in his image, in God’s image he created him; male and female he created them. 28 Further, God blessed them and God said to them: “Be fruitful and become many and fill the earth and subdue it, and have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and every living creature that is moving upon the earth.” Ge1:26 |

The only way we will survive as a species is to completely do away with archaic and baseless religious beliefs and political systems created and intended to divide. Religion is a cancer on this earth, and politics are like AIDS, infiltrating even the seemingly healthy sectors of humanity. This system has to stop or we're going the way of the dinos. |

071676 User ID: 50291311 United States 02/23/2014 06:26 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The problem with man is not politics or religion. The simple answer is that man, in all of his self-conceit has not advanced any farther than that man that hid scared and tired in caves. We just have better tools now. Man will never accept an outsider to run their lives, and as long as they will not, man will never advance. But it isn't just allowing an outsider to rule them, but to allow outside thought to enter into their personal space and realm, while keeping their traditions holy. Nothing will force conflict more then to tell someone that they are unworthy of respect because they do not hold the same values. |

Yes, that explains man's failure to achieve global Eden, and ruining the earth instead, even though being a button push away from inflicting total extinction. He will not accept the 1,000 year reign of Christ, no matter what the consequences, even while more 'nuclear deterants' are being built in the name of fair play and balance of power. "I saw also an angel standing in the sun, and he cried out with a loud voice and said to all the birds that fly in midheaven: “Come here, be gathered together to the great evening meal of God, 18 that YOU may eat the fleshy parts of kings and the fleshy parts of military commanders and the fleshy parts of strong men and the fleshy parts of horses and of those seated upon them, and the fleshy parts of all, of freemen as well as of slaves and of small ones and great.” 19 And I saw the wild beast and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered together to wage the war with the one seated on the horse and with his army. 20 And the wild beast was caught, and along with it the false prophet that performed in front of it the signs with which he misled those who received the mark of the wild beast and those who render worship to its image. While still alive, they both were hurled into the fiery lake that burns with sulphur. 21 But the rest were killed off with the long sword of the one seated on the horse, which [sword] proceeded out of his mouth. And all the birds were filled from the fleshy parts of them." Rv17;19 |
