- Flashtone, on 07/05/2008, -12/+105I'm a Christian. Seeing stuff like this really pisses me off. The Bible I believe in tells me that Jesus didn't come to the world to condemn it but to set it free. Sadly these protesters have no clue.

- inactive, on 07/05/2008, -13/+72I prefer to burn...
- thal3s, on 07/05/2008, -29/+80Wow, these people's God is huge prick. Better than 2/3 of the planet (that's 4 Billion people folks) go to hell because they're not Christians?
Man, God must be a mean son-of-a-bitch to do that to his own people!!
If he really wanted us to be Christians he could:
1) Make us believe in Jesus from birth (he created us, he can "make us" think whatever he wants)
2) Write "Believe in Jesus" in the stars so everyone on earth could look up and night and go, "Oh *****. God is serious. I'm all over this Jesus thing."
Just sayin' - Arcesius, on 07/05/2008, -1/+40Are you MrBabyMan's other account?
- xGuerrillaRadio, on 07/05/2008, -0/+35We don't like to talk about 1.0...
- acroyear2, on 07/05/2008, -8/+40jesus is my favorite hippy.
He helps my mom with the yard work and I just pay him with some nice bud. - OC73, on 07/05/2008, -4/+35They should've humped the dude with the sign.
- krustie, on 07/05/2008, -1/+30Whatever floats your boat
- dalexandruz, on 07/05/2008, -9/+33I remember when i was a little kid in the 80's seeing all these religious nut heads walking around with signs saying year 2000 will be the end of the world christ is comming. well, what happend? we are still here and where is christ? people create god in their own image because they see themselves as god. billions of people in this world living with this mental disorder.
- Bennessy, on 07/05/2008, -1/+24FYI, his boyfriend's name is Jesús. They're just doing what the sign tells them.
- BackwardsPanda, on 07/05/2008, -0/+23Wheres 1.0?
- Bologner, on 07/05/2008, -1/+22Is that Jack Bauer's bag?
- dib2, on 07/05/2008, -5/+24Even though they may be joking, I'm sure one of them is enjoying it.
- thal3s, on 07/05/2008, -5/+24Are you saying God "created" us with "free will" and then tests us to see what we do (i.e.: the old "gay is a choice" stuff)?
That would mean God set up an elaborate rat maze and created us to see what we did.
That's just too dumb to possibly be believed.
Or would you care to elaborate your arguments...? - Shipyaad, on 07/05/2008, -3/+22Do I understand free will? Sure. Free will is not compatible with an omniscient God.* So there's a mistake somewhere.
*After all, Jesus predicted Judas' betrayal, did he not? And how could Judas have had free will if his FUTURE ACTIONS were predetermined? And why is he such a pariah, anyway? Wasn't Judas' sell-out a prerequisite for the story of the crucifixion?
Nobody's been able to explain any of this to me in a way that makes sense. If you can do it, I'd be more than happy to reconsider my beliefs - which, if you didn't pick up on it already, are characterized by extreme skepticism. - bagelmaster, on 07/05/2008, -1/+17The newest bandwagon "end of days" is December 21, 2012. We shall see....
- inactive, on 07/05/2008, -2/+17The best weapon against Christian nut jobs is the bible.
"Judge not, lest ye be judged."
"let he who is without sin, cast the first stone" - thal3s, on 07/05/2008, -4/+19What i don't understand is how God let's good, decent Christians die horrible, painful deaths day-after-day, or why 4 billion people are roasting in hell... no church in history has ever adequately explained that.
Makes no sense at all. therefore, it probably doesn't exist. - atgmac, on 07/05/2008, -2/+16What idiots devised that campaign? "Turn or Burn". Does it not occur to them that those who are scared of "Burning in hell" already attend church (or at least say a prayer once in a while)?
- prome05, on 07/05/2008, -3/+17Facebook profile picture?
- mKdiR, on 07/05/2008, -10/+21free will. do you understand it?
- MrWhite7, on 07/05/2008, -3/+14They really didn't commit.
- thal3s, on 07/05/2008, -4/+13Haha!! So i get dugg down for producing a logical argument?
And with no replies?
Come on guys! If you believe in something so strongly, you should at least be able to EXPLAIN it, don't you think? - EarlOfLade, on 07/05/2008, -2/+11@thal3s:
These poor brainwashed folks are trying to tell us that a collection of 2000+ year old goat herder and camel driver scifi books are real and that we need to live our life like a bunch of illiterate superstitious bronze age men. It's really sad to read the many examples over at fstdt.com (Fundies Say The Darndest Things), wanna make you cry.
- EarlOfLade, on 07/05/2008, -5/+14With thousands of different christian cults, it's quite obvious that it is nothing but ***** in the first place.
- Shipyaad, on 07/05/2008, -1/+9Oops, came back too late to delete. But I'm not convinced. Check this out.
"Omniscience is knowing what every human will freely choose before he/she chooses it."
OK, we'll go with that. I'd probably take it a step further, emphasizing the "all knowing" aspect.
"Someone knowing about a choice beforehand has nothing to do with the choice itself."
It has EVERYTHING to do with the choice! Knowing the outcome of a choice - knowing the future - means by definition that it's not a choice at all, whether the "chooser" knows it or not!
Like this: if you already know what someone's going to do beyond a shadow of a doubt... as proven by:
"God knew what Judas would do TRILLIONS of years ago,"
Then how is it that Judas had a choice in the matter at all? Omniscence demands pre-determination. If ANYONE knows the future as hard fact, then free will doesn't exist.
"It's not that God caused Judas to betray Jesus."
He most certainly did. You can't have your cake and eat it too, dude. As the Omniscient Creator of Everything, He obviously had this as part of his plan. Judas existed for one reason - to ensure the Crucifixion.
I'm just saying that the inconsistencies really bother me, and I can't see that any of this stuff works unless God isn't bound by his own rules, i.e., logic.
If you want 37 pieces of flair... - blackhappy, on 07/05/2008, -4/+12Like me telling you to shut up numb nuts, thats free will!
- inactive, on 07/05/2008, -9/+17Well at least some Christians don't go around spreading hate. =]
- RachaelMichele, on 07/05/2008, -3/+11It's hippie goddamn it.
- CZzyzx41, on 07/05/2008, -2/+9Actually chico, Jesus did (and does) exist. Now it's possible none of the people that have been called Jesus was the messiah but dudes named Jesus HAVE existed.
- EarlOfLade, on 07/05/2008, -4/+11And like most gays, he had a female hang-a-round....
- incubusoad, on 07/05/2008, -2/+9Do these people honestly believe signs like this will turn people to God? Like we don't already know about the concept of hell... I bet if you walked up to one of these people and asked them what hell was they would turn away from you; thinking you were mocking them.
The only people these guys are going to attract are people whom already hold the same religious beliefs as them. Could that really be considered a success? That they got more people to join in on... what are these called anyway? We always called it the-crazies-convention-in-speaker's-circle.
My favorite quotes by a crazy person touting the righteousness of God was "There are no fire trucks in hell!" Why the hell would we think there would be fire trucks in hell? - EarlOfLade, on 07/05/2008, -4/+11Wrong!
Jesus clearly stated that "in this generation" and "some of you will not even taste death before ..." clearly shows that it should have happened in the first century but did not and from then on and until this day, the various christian cults have performed mental acrobatics in order to explain why the bible doesn't mean what it actually says and why we are still waiting.
Wake up people, it's bronze age mythology and not reality. - inactive, on 07/05/2008, -6/+12religion is a disease that needs to be wiped clean.
- glowfood, on 07/05/2008, -2/+8Would actually be amusing if the sign holder was facing them.
- scy1192, on 07/05/2008, -6/+12maybe Digg just finds a few specific examples of idiocy and doesn't bother to show Christianity as most Christians practice it?
- ATLien74, on 07/05/2008, -2/+8The other one was much funnier and clever. This one is just gay.
- inactive, on 07/05/2008, -2/+8So you're saying that since billions of people believe it, it must be true?
- inactive, on 07/05/2008, -1/+7I sincerely doubt it...
- irgeorge, on 07/05/2008, -0/+5Yeah, I remember back in the day when it was so hard to get featured on the top stories Digg went without any top stories for almost month. Those were tough times.
- chaosblade77, on 07/05/2008, -2/+7I thought there were historical records confirming that the Jesus described in the bible did exist. Everything else about his is another story though.
- overt, on 07/05/2008, -0/+5I know I am.
:) - Daz3, on 07/06/2008, -0/+4"He didn't write it in the stars, he wrote it in a book."
That 'book' was written and collated by men. Mortal men.
"Either way people who won't believe just won't believe it."
Give me one reason, just one, why anyone should believe it. - brightshadow525, on 07/06/2008, -0/+4Agreed. I'm fine with people casually walking by, handing out pamphlets or kindly talking to people... But walking around with freakin' signs that say YOU'RE GOING TO HELL isn't really the best thing to do....
- CZzyzx41, on 07/05/2008, -0/+4Using the same exact logic...
God lets innocent people suffer and go hungry = God doesn't exist or isn't worth worshipping.
God created bacon, steak, and beer = God not only exists but is one badass *****. -
