It's too risky for anybody to translate that into other languages. Mistakes can creep in... and that can lead to heresy. True Christians should only read English."
English is the divine language now? That would make the 5th element much more boring. - inactive, on 01/14/2008, -21/+473Start > All Programs > mIRC

"god was sacrificing this child as a way to show others the light. much as he did his own child. what a beautiful gift he has given us." - ggnictee, on 01/14/2008, -56/+432Sadly any given group of people is going to be made up of ...well people. And people can be dumb. And there are dumb people who are also Christian.
I feel compelled to point out that this group is not representative of all (or even most) Christians. They're not crazy Christian people. They're crazy people who are also Christian.
Christians do NOT believe that:
1- God hates "the gays" (see: John 3:16 and ..heck the whole New Testament)
1A- God wants you to stop gay marriage and 'fix' "the gays" (see: John 15:12. That is how you should homosexuals and everyone. It's a commandment from God that you love one another. An order, a law, a rule which must be obeyed. Christ gave lots of advice, things to do, and general rules but only one Commandment. Try to do this one thing. pretty please. Just be kind eachother. It's not as hard as it sounds. (note: if you aren't Christian, this is still pretty good advice in general.)
2- God hates evolution (the two (separate and distinct) stories in Genesis were written for a purpose. The first story was written to show God is powerful. The second to show that God loves you (yes you anonymous digger) They were never intended to be a literal history of events. (and frankly to use the bible for a purpose it wasn't intended has a name: blasphemy)
2A- God doesn't hate science in general. that's just dumb. Even the pope thinks so.
3-God thinks women should stay "in their place" - before Rome began heavily influencing the early Church women were equally in charge. Many early church leaders were women. It wasn't until after Christianity became the social religion of Rome that Rome's social interests began creeping in.
4-God Kills Babies for a reason- this is dumb. God doesn't want Anyone to die. (this is the whole purpose of the Jesus 'thing') However, God did give us free will. We are free to make our own decisions, live our lives, and make mistakes. Good news: this means we get to be free thinking rational beings. Bad news: war, murder, drunk driving, hunger, greed, anger, partisan politics, riots, Star Wars Episodes 1and2, etc. Bad things don't happen to good people for "a reason." bad things happen because of free will. Without free will there would be no evil. But without free will we wouldn't be human (bit of a catch 22 if you ask me)
5- ...I don't really have anything to say for 5, other then I hope I've helped and to apologize for these people who claim to share my religion. God bless digg. Please (both sides, or all sides (there's more then just two)) try to be kind, try to remember we're all human, we all say stupid things, make mistakes etc. Everyone is trying, please be patient with one another.
Thank you. - navitatl, on 01/14/2008, -10/+339How about this gem from the forums at military.com:
"Also, one thing about evolution. If humans supposedly evolved from gorrillas, why aren't the gorrillas still evolving into humans now. Why is it that you never hear on the news, "(name) the gorrilla evolved into a Human today at the Atlanta Zoo."? I guess its just a coincidence." - wetmetalthong, on 01/14/2008, -17/+342Holy ***** ***** this is scary.
- nullx42, on 01/14/2008, -10/+321" Puts on his robe and wizard hat*
- THETEH, on 01/14/2008, -11/+322(spoken by a father to his gay son)
" told him how being gay would mean he would live a shorter life, and that if he couldnt change his orientation he could be celibate like most the ex-gays are. He started crying saying something along the lines of "I knew you wouldnt understand! You're just like everyone else!" before running to his room and slamming the door. What did I do wrong?"
That may very well be the most depressing thing I've read in weeks. People are lunatics. - stackered, on 01/14/2008, -22/+287Quote:

Athiests as a Majority
This is what it would be like, if the majority of people were athiests.
ATHIEST KID: Mom, I'm going to go ***** a hooker.
ATHIEST MOM: Okay, son.
ATHIEST KID: Afterwards, I'm going to go smoke pot with my friends, since it's "not addictive."
ATHIEST MOM: Okay, come home soon!
The athiest kid leaves the room. The father comes home from work several minutes later.
ATHIEST DAD: Hey!
ATHIEST MOM: Hi, honey! I'm pregnant again. I guess I'll just get another abortion, since "fetuses don't count as human life."
ATHIEST DAD: Okay, get as many abortions as you want!
ATHIEST MOM: Oh, and don't go in the bedroom.
ATHIEST DAD: Why not?
ATHIEST MOM: There are two gay men ***** eachother in there.
ATHIEST DAD: Why are they here?
ATHIEST MOM: I wanted to watch them do it for awhile. They just aren't finished yet.
ATHIEST DAD: Okay, that's fine with me!
Suddenly, their neighbor runs into the house.
ATHIEST NEIGHBOR: Come quick, there's a Christian outside!
ATHIEST MOM: We'll be right there!
The athiest couple quickly put on a pair of black robes and hoods. They then exit the house, and run into the street, where a Christian is nailed to a large, wooden X. He is being burned alive. A crowd of athiests stand around him, all wearing black robes and hoods.
RANDOM ATHIEST: Damn you, Christian! We hate you! We claim to be tolerant of all religions. But we really hate your's! That's because we athiests are hypocritical like that! Die, Christian!
THE END
Scary, isn't it?

ROFLCOPTER. I guess us atheists are all bisexual murderers who forget to wear condoms. - inactive, on 01/14/2008, -10/+225And I'm all out of bubble gum...

- sharknip126, on 01/14/2008, -9/+171These people are morons. I generally try to defend anyone who believes in Jesus Christ, but with many of these quotes, I wonder if they have even read the Bible as most of these quotes are contradictory to what it teaches.
These are disturbing examples of people making judgments without any knowledge about what they are talking about. Please do not assume they speak for everyone who believes in Christ.
oh, and btw, i think it's hilarious that they claim the KJB should be the only bible in the world and that "evolution is a lie" is apparently 3 words....let's hear it for intelligent conversation... - dig412, on 01/14/2008, -2/+162Gorilla is evolving....
boop beep boop beep boop beep bing!
Gorilla evolved into... Human! - ggnictee, on 01/14/2008, -4/+139(Note: I'm a Christian, read my bible, go to church etc)
The King James people really ..upset me. The author has a point: translations can lead to mistakes. Bad news though: the KJV is a translation of translations. We don't have the original letters, only copies. And the old testament, who knows how old some of those stories are. (ok so we do, but my point is that they were passed down orally then translated, then translated again)
Also (and this is always fun if you're ever talking to a KJV fanatic) which version of the KJB do we use? And what do we do about the letter from King James to the monks who wrote the bible that says "I don't' care about accuracy, just make it sound pretty"?
...sigh. - raulbot, on 01/14/2008, -5/+137"If we did evolve from monkeys then how come babies arent born monkey" and "how come we cant speak monkey" are from scientist coolstylinstud
- mekriti, on 01/14/2008, -9/+132I hate telling people I'm Christian because I just know they mentally lump me in with these nutcases.

- Groovemaster, on 01/14/2008, -13/+125Prolonged exposure to religion causes psychosis; a mental illness involving loss of contact with reality, paranoia and delusional thoughts.
I shouldn't really laugh at the baffled musings of the mentally ill, but I have to admit that list was hilarious! - doctechnical, on 01/14/2008, -8/+113Holy flying *****... I'm stunned. That's all I can say. Stunned.

- rarson, on 01/14/2008, -7/+99Christians make the mistake of thinking that everyone is as despicable, hate-filled, and intolerant as they are.
Disclaimer: Not ALL Christians are like that, but the type of Christian that writes something like this certainly is. - jklyon, on 01/14/2008, -1/+92Sorry if duplicate comment, but anyone have a mirror?
Digg down if it is duplicate - bomb288, on 01/14/2008, -13/+104"What is called 'Science' today and 'scientists' consist of the same old gang of witch doctors, sorcerers, tellers of tales, the 'Priest-Entertainers' for the common people. 'Science' consists of a weird, way-out occult concoction of jibberish theory-theology... nothing good has ever come from 'science' --- In fact, technology is not in any way related to the web of idiotic scientific theory. ALL inventors have been anti-science. The Wright brothers said: "Science theory held us up for years. When we threw out all science, started from experiment and experience, then we invented the airplane." By the way, airplanes all fly level on this Plane earth!
The Fact the Earth is Flat is not my opinion, it is a Proved Fact! While all we need to know is that the Bible says the Earth is flat (Is.40:22, Ez.7:2, Dn.2:35; 4:10-11,20, Mt.4:8)... but for a second can you imagine what these so-called 'scientists would have us believe --- If the earth really was round, that would mean there arre people who are HANGING DOWN, HEAD DOWNWARDS while we are standing head up? But since the theory allows to travel to those parts of the earth where the people are said to hand head downward, and still to fancy ourselves to be heads upwards, and our friends whom we have left behind us to be heads downwards! LOL! What foolishness! TheWHOLE THING IS A MYTH - A DREAM - A DELUSION - and a snare, and, instead of there being any evidence at all in this direction to substantiate this popular theory, it is plain proof that the Earth is Not A Globe!
Also, be sure to know the Sun and Moon are about 3,000 miles away are both 32 miles across. The Planets are 'tiny.' Sun and Moon do Move, earth does NOT move, whirl, spin or gyrate (1 Sam.2:8, 1 Chr.16:30; Job 9:6, 38:4-6; Ps.96:10, 104:5, Is.13:10, Mic.6:2). Australians do NOT hang by their feet under the world... this is a FACT, not a theory! Also a Fact the Spinning, Whirling, Gyrating Ball World Planet, Globe Idea is Entirely 100% now and at all times in the Past, a RELIGIOUS DOCTRINE... a Blind Dogmatic Article of Faith in the Religion for the Blind unreasoning beast of prey. No earthly reason for a Sane, Upright Member of the Elite True Christians to subscribe to it. Also a Fact, today the Elite of Earth ALL live on the Flat World. Only the illogical, unreasoning "herd"... prefers the way-out occult weird theology of the old Greek superstitution earth a spinning ball! Both Copernecious and Newton, the inventors of the "modern" superstitions (400 year OLD modern) have said: "It is not possible for a Sane reasonable person to ever really believe these Theories." Thus sayeth Newton-Copernecious. What sayeth THOU?"

- TheAkolyte, on 01/14/2008, -8/+61Thats nothing. When I came out to my parents - they burnt me at the stake.
Haha - just kidding, they were a lot more understanding then that. They crucified me. - Campog, on 01/14/2008, -6/+57I would have to agree with you. Although many Diggers like to pretend otherwise, not all Christians are this retarded. Unfortunately it probably is a pretty large majority. Believe it or not a large number of Christian reformed churches such as mine do support the theory of evolution.

- tismealso, on 01/14/2008, -9/+56to iggr:
I wanted to know too ! so with a little google research, the quote originated from truth radio on 6th June 2006 and according to RichardDawkins.net this theory can be attributed to Kent Hovind.... read on. This is gooood.
... [Kent Hovind] is now considered to be one of the foremost authorities on science and the Bible.
founder of Creation Science Evangelism and Dinosaur Adventure Land in Pensacola, was found guilty of 58 counts, including failure to pay $845,000 in employee-related taxes. He faces a maximum of 288 years in prison.
so that is what he is doing now, but here a a couple more of his gems I found while looking into this, they may
be on the original [dugg] site but I didn't see them.
This is the best yet....
"In spite of their ferocious look, many people would probably argue the T-Rex was a vegetarian. The ferocious teeth would have been great for, you know, crushing stuffed pumpkins or something, you know. I don't know if it has ever been proven they were meat eaters. There is plenty of evidence from cracks in the enamel with chlorophyll stains in them indicating they were certainly eating plants."
and this is plane horrific..
[Advice to the daughter of a woman with breast cancer]
HOVIND: One thing is for sure, if you do nothing it will probably get worse. But it is surprising, if you do nothing with cancer your life expectancy is somewhere between 6 and 10 years. If you take chemo your life expectancy is between 1 and 2 years.
WOMAN: They want her to take radiation. And that is my greatest fear. I believe the FDA about as much as I believe in evolution.
HOVIND: There you go. [...] I think the last thing I would do would be to take the medical profession's approach.
WOMAN: Well, that's what I'm saying too.
