    Quoth TambourineBlues:
    Remember when God impregnated that teenage girl without telling her while she was asleep? That's kind of fucked up.

    Were you referring to the story of Mary?

    Yeah, dude, I'm about ninety nine percent sure that if that happened, she was already pregnant. I mean, Elizabeth was already six months along when she found out, according to the BIBLE, and God didn't even tell her, he told Mary. Therefore, God = Date Rapist trying to cover his own tracks with a verse. Also, none of this matters because it's all bullshit.

    Elizabeth's baby John was from Zechariah, the way I understand it.

  • Well, shit! The Bible's like a goddamn episode of the O.C. Everyone's fucking everyone and it's hard to keep track, especially considering that every gospel's different, and all of this was written years and years after it happened, from memory, even though all the people involved were dead for quite some time. Anyway, I guess when it comes to Elizabeth and Zachariah and John the Baptist and how they relate in the Bible then you have owned me. Also, it's five o' clock in the morning. And, this is going to seem like a copout so bear with me, we're arguing over fairytales.

    You guys disgust me. Seriously, as if Christmas and Christianity were about that.

    It's about buying more sweaters and beating up gay people, respectively.

  • If there's one thing I love about Jesus, it's that he could really appreciate a good sweater.

    I don't want to argue about anything, but it makes interesting discussion. My reaction was in fact provoked by your "language", but I learnt now from your signature why you don't care about this good advice: (1) - (2)

    Fucking stories and killing stories are no fairy tales.

    The "fairy tales" we were discussing were written by a medical doctor, who may have been alive when Jesus was born.

    Thank you for stereotyping 3 sins in one breath, lbf! It shows how much we have "civilized" sin in our own human way instead of dealing with it the way we were told to.

    A medical doctor who may have been alive when Jesus was born wrote the bible? Are we talking about Luke? Luke who had nothing to do with Jesus until he became his disciple? Did Luke bang some rocks together and figure out that Jesus was born from a virgin? What kind of proof are you offerring up, because until you can give me something from a third party source, not the Bible, I'm going to dismiss you. And I don't know what random incest verses have to do with anything, especially because you're not proving that they actually happened, which basically DOES make them fairytales.

    As for my "rage and insults and blah blah blah", it's the internet. Lighten up.

    Actually, please don't. This is the internet, I think I'll just laugh at you from a distance. Jesus loves you, I'm sure.

    Nice one! You can read about the end of the Church Age in Revelation. This is either about to happen soon or already going on.

  • No, that says that Satan's time is short and that Christ will come to save the righteous again.

    1) Beating people up,
    2) Being gay,
    3) Buying sweaters?

    Well, I guess if they're made of a cotton/polyester blend....

    Maybe the third sin was "trying to be sassy", which is a sin by association with sassy gay sidekicks in sitcoms.

    1) Beating people up,

    Behold! The Holy Spirit came on ratnerstar!

    I should have said "3 manifestations of sin", rather than "sins".
    Example: Beating up people is a manifestation of sin. The hate, a lack of forgiveness or whatever reason for beating someone up is the sin.

    This difference is important: there can be laws against manifestations of sin (Moses), but not against sin itself (since Jesus we have "grace"). This example will make you understand the usually so poorly understood Romans chapters 5, 6 and 11.

    Buying a sweater is not sinful, far from it. On the other hand, excessive consumption, collecting riches and the like, are often manifestations of sin.

    Just as for beating someone up, being gay can be the result of numerous different kinds of sin, be aware of this, instead of beating them up!

    But if instead of dealing with sin, one would say "hey, what's the harm in buying a sweater and the other says : "what's the harm in enjoying this or that?" Well indeed, there is no harm at all if this behaviour was not the result of sin.
    How can someone still blame gay people for saying: "Hey, what's the harm? I was born like that!"? If everyone is ignoring his own sin, because the manifestations of it are not against the law, why shouldn't you grant gay people that same right?

    Everyone's a sinner. And everyone has the choice to deal with them or to ignore them. Let him who has eyes, open them now! The Bible did have things to teach us!

  • The part that confused me is Noah and the flood. If it was just Noah's family that survived wouldn't that mean that rebuilding the human race consisted of a TON of incest for a few generations? Maybe that's where the term "Mother-Fucker" came from.

    It seems so ironic when Noah's family had to leave Gomorrah because they we're doing sinful things like mother-fucking then god put them in a situation where they had to do the same.

    If incest causes birth defects, genetic mutation would explain why people of the time lived for 800 years. But the length of life would be offset by the incredible mental retardation of generations of inbreeding. I’m sure the average life-span was about the same from offset of accidental deaths of retarded inbred children.

    Somebody else may have said it but that's how I remember it. It's a reminder that come what may I will not allow myself to be broken until the end.
