Posted on 23:06:06 - 17/11/23 (1 year ago)Post link copied to clipboard Copy post linkIncorrect.
We took free will for ourselves, and got original sin.
Sin, is arbitrary. God sent himself to Earth, to die... for us to be forgiven... for breaking his own arbitrary rules. -

Posted on 23:15:32 - 17/11/23 (1 year ago)Post link copied to clipboard Copy post linkOk, I think that child sacrifice is wrong because murdering innocent people is wrong (unless, of course God demands a sacrifice, but not of a kid, and then it's okay and a good thing?) I don't really see anything wrong with homosexuality, as long as all the people consent to it and taking precautions to prevent harm (eg. std's) as applicable, bestiality is wrong because the humans have too much power over the lives of other animals for them to be able to consent without coercion, explicit or implied, and worshiping idols is fine because of religious freedom, and people should not be persecuted for their religion. I need to do more research on what actually happened, but some of the things that they did are definitely a lot worse than other things.
Edit: I did some research and apparently God ordered a genocide of these people. This is not good, guys, and I don't think they deserved to be killed like this (I don't believe in killing criminals at all), especially if it's over stuff that;s not even crimes, like being gay or practicing their religion.Last edited by EverleighRaven on 23:34:03 - 17/11/23 (1 year ago) -

After being raised that way I believe there is a god who created the universe and all that jazz HOWEVER I do not believe that god is loving or plays a huge role in people's lives day to day.

Posted on 01:23:12 - 18/11/23 (1 year ago)Post link copied to clipboard Copy post linkI personally feel as long as you do your best to live the best life and treat people as well as you can. That is all that really matters in the end. I have read the 3 main books (the Bible, Torah, and the Quran), and that is the main quality they all preach in my opinion. I know they all have violence and whatnot, but I tend to try and ignore that and focus on the positives and live my life that way. I know I have failed many times; hell, folks in Torn have seen me be pretty nasty, unfortunately. I just hope I'm forgiven by them in the end.

Posted on 03:22:52 - 18/11/23 (1 year ago)Post link copied to clipboard Copy post linkThere are plenty of hypocritical Christians out there, but OP isn't one of them.
Jesus sent his disciples out two by two to proclaim the Gospel. He told those to whom he imparted the faith, "do not hide your light under a bushel basket." What Jesus took issue with in the passages you're citing is the self-aggrandizement of pharisees who would compare themselves favorably over others and brag about their holiness. I'm sure we could both identify many Christians we know who would say they are better people than their non-believing neighbors. But it isn't being hypocritical to want to share the Gospel with others and to try to convert others, as long as it's coming from a place of humility. OP has stated in virtually every response on here that he isn't perfect and strives every day to grow in his faith. -

Posted on 03:59:38 - 18/11/23 (1 year ago)Post link copied to clipboard Copy post linkChristianity is many things to me personally, firstly it is apart of my identity, my father and his father before him so forth, to reject this identity is to reject a fundamental competent that connects me to my ancestors, and i reject that wholeheartedly as a staunch traditionalist and monarchist, as my family's noble ancient dynasty has been for well over 700 years, Secondly its a moral operating system for society in pragmatic function the contrast being the moral decline we see playing out all throughout the west. Lastly it is a spiritual vehicle.
Degeneracy envy's what is moral for it is repugnant.Last edited by broleaf on 04:08:25 - 18/11/23 (1 year ago)NRx. Reject Modernity return to: Tradition, Monarchy, Spirit.

Jesus said ‘our father’ he never said ‘mine’. Jesus didn’t know the season of the fruit, he was a human, a mighty prophet, but never God. -

Posted on 08:28:51 - 18/11/23 (1 year ago)Post link copied to clipboard Copy post linkThe difficulty in concluding a discussion such as this, arises from the fact that "believing" in anything requires a so-called "leap of faith", i.e. shutting down your capacity for structured reasoning.
We start with believing and then, on this basis, we try to discuss these beliefs and to decide on moral questions. But the discussion goes nowhere. It's because our brain can't have it both ways: We cannot reason on things that are ill-defined.
Humanity's intellect, our unique capacity to use language (language in our minds, to give things and concepts a name, a label, and to then reason and build on these labels), is our only real difference to other mammals and our true hope of escaping the current "human condition".
In my view, the answer to the OP's original question might as well be "Yes and no and maybe" or anything equally nonsensical. Because the question itself makes no sense. It is just a reflection of our desire for something better in general.
I "believe" that the "god" we should be looking for is a future humanity which employs innate morality along with science. To so further and "save" itself. -
