Why is it that the so called "Crhistians" try to push their religion trough anyones eye without considering their values or without respecting their believes? Why is it that the only way vto go to heaven (if there is one) ]is trough Cristhianity?.. Why is it that Cristianity totally refuses evolution and even have the nerve to claim that the earth is 10000 years old.. How do we know that Jesus Christ was who he claimed to be? If we were as backward and ignorant as the people was back then,, nowdays,, this great magician (David Coperfield) (I'm not sure how to spell it) could easily claim that he is God or something like that and WE will believe him due to the fact of what we see.. We now that he is a grate ilusionist dissapearing things, levitating, and all sort of things that he does, that is more that enought to convince someone that does not know what is going on.. That person "the ignorant".. after seen this magical act will be amazed and chances are that he will put the magician at the same level of God.. just because the trick that that person saw.. If there is one God, and there is only one Crhist.. Why is it that there are so many different denominations for Crhistian churches,, Methodist, Lutheran, Presbiteryan, scientist.. ans so on... Why Christians take the Bible so literaly it was a book written long time ago.. things have change but they still keep following the same book.. which is Racist, predegist, and 100% BS.. I have read it many times,, just look what it says about women.. According to the Bible women are not capable of thinking and have to follow their husbands and be submisive and in other words be a slave.. Why is it that the Chistian Bible is missing some books that the "original" Bible have,, Book of wisdom for example.. Who in the ... was King James.. and why do you guys believe in that *** He just wanted to keep his kingdom going and in that time religion was the best weapon that he had, and at the same time religion ( Faith) nwas the most effective controling instrument.. If God is Holly Power, and he is omnipower, omnipresence, and GOD it self what right whatsoever do christians have to put boundries to him.. Boundries such as,, Human shape,, People that claims that know him and understand him.. if someone knows God and Understand him,, there is no more mistery about God,, therefore there is no more God.. Because if you understand him and Know him so well,, you cvan become God yourself,, How come that all this Christian priests, are so controling and money hunters. all that they care is money, nice cars, and women.. Who pays for them,, the Christian Faith,, Just because thay Cry in t.v. and hold a Bible in their hands.. We don't need people like that,, we are smart enough to read the Bible and Undestand it.. thanks to our intelligence, intelect or our capability of thinking (whatever you want to call it).. ` Well, just some questions of the 10000000 questions that I have.. Please,, if you are going to reply,, just do it but don't try to convince me in to Crhistinaity.. I have been around Christians,, My best Friend is Christian, I socialize with Christians, and I am glad that they have understand at last who am I, and what are my believes, and finally they stopped pushing.. and I like it,, so don't try to convince me ,, I have been in crusades, conferences, bible study, sunday school, church,, adn still Christianity does not ring the bells,, I do Believe in God ,, I do respect him, I do pray to him, I am thankful to him, I trust him with all my heart, I know he is with me always, I know he is watching me always, and I believe he talks to me through my consience since when I do something that is not quite applausible,, my consience bothers me alot.. I will keep in the search of a religion that conceives God in the way that he should be, I would keep my search for people that respect him as he should be respected, I will keep searching for people that loves him by heart no just because their parents told them to.. I feel really confortable around Crhistians because they are almost what I am looking for.. the Poblem is the way that they view Jesus, AI think is too much admiration,, I thinbk that God should get more attention.. and i think he deseves more honest people. Because my theory is,, As far as you are good to you self, your friends. your family, and the stranger, as fa as you thank your Lord God,(whatever Conception youi have of him), as far as you have a clean consience, you are in good stand whit god (please don't quote this).."I mean don take it literaly "Good stand with God" or God's side",, I don't really know how to put it) I hope you get the message)) No matter what church you belong to, no matter who you think God is, as far as yuo are Good,, you ae in Gods' side (again don't quote me) Who is to say good and bad.. you consience is the best judge,, some people can overcome it, but not trully.. well flame me if you want,, I just wnat to know and get moe and more knowledge about this... thanks..
