For
the record, I try to stay away from blanket statements like
"Christianity is the worlds biggest cult."
I'm
watching Jesus Camp as we speak. Again, something that shocks the
shit out of me so badly that my chest starts to hurt and my stomach
sink. There is nothing more sad to me than seeing all these people
literally being brainwashed. I mean going after kids? That's
basically sick. Since when did being evolved from animals mean that
we don't have a purpose in life? How does that mean we can't love
without Jesus? The world knew NO love before the bible was written?
Bullshit.
I
want every "true" Christian to pray in a collective effort
against me. Just to see what happens. Of course that wouldn't mean
anything. When I told them nothing happened I'm a liar compelled by
the devil. This camp teaches kids to die for what they don't
understand. I don't care what you think you have faith in, a faith
misunderstood is a faith unworthy.
Radical
and passionate used in the same sentence to describe yourself is
insane. I've come to a pretty hard understanding. You can't use logic
and reason to fight with radical and passionate. Those two things are
mental inhibitors in that persons mind. You can't get past them until
they do.
This
woman, who's the leader of the camp, goes on a rant about Harry
fucking Potter. I fictional character who's this demon wizard boy
against God. Says he would be put to death if he were real. Let me
put this as plainly as I can
HOW
DOES A PERFECTLY
LOVING,
FORGIVING,
AND UNDERSTANDING
GOD LEAVE ROOM FOR WAR, HATRED, AND JUDGEMENTS OF ANYONE? HOW ARE
YOU A FUCKING JUDGE FOR GOD?
This
next section is just going to be questions. Open ended, and hopefully
going to help me organize an interview with a few pastors I want to
talk with.
God's
perfection created the world and people in his image and yet the
people, who are born uninfluenced atheists, are automatically stained
with sin and damned to hell or purgatory because they haven't
accepted Jesus as their savior?
To
preach the messages of love and peace we need to create more soldiers
for Christ?
The
only way to be taken seriously about what you believe is die in the
name of it?
There
are two kinds of love? Mine isn't worthy why?
What
is so bad about being wrong? Just a little too human for you?
Did
you know being born of a virgin, nailed to a cross, and rising from
the dead is not the first time the story was told?
What
do you believe is the most powerful thing controlling humanity,
laziness or fear?
Why
do people think that saying God created everything in 7 days EXPLAINS
ANYTHING? Nothing makes that claim different from ANY claim about ANY
thing.
What
does God sound like, describe his voice. Loud? Deep?
What
do you say about the Gospels of Mary Magdelan (sp?) and Judas? Have
you even read them? Better yet, even heard of them?
Why
can't you realize what man writing the bible says about the bible?
Who's saying God can fuck up? Not me. Who's saying men fuck up.
EVERYONE.
Why
do we need to "saved" from death? It was bound to happen
the second you shot out of you dad's ball sack. It will happen to
everyone and everything. Who's saving my dog?
I
guess that's one of those wrong kinds of love right?
What
do you think would happen if people stopped focusing on how loud they
can scream Jesus's name and started focusing on just living and
loving? What would the impact of John Doe have on the world instead
of "John Doe's faith?"
Don't
you find it intriguing that spooky scientists don't cause wars?
Neither do Atheists, or Taoists, or Buddhists. All of them teach
something different from you, they love and live, and aren't dieing
or persecuting because they think your different.
Why
would God create you with a brain if you weren't supposed to use it?
Why do you need to be told how to think, feel, and speak? Did you
ever a day in your life tell yourself you are bad for thinking before
you became a "Christian?"
Why
don't you think heaven was good enough for the devil? Why do you
think God lets the devil tempt you? Is it a game? Does God want you
to live in heaven so badly that he gives you flaws and a supernatural
demon beast to toy with you? I bet that makes perfect awesome heaven
taste that much sweeter ..even though its already perfect…and
sweet….
Isn't
the devil just a scapegoat for responsibility? When you don't know
how to handle something you blame someone else. Basic human rule of
nature. Ask any kid who's lied about a broken window. What's stops
all the "old kids" in the world from holding true to that
same law? How hard is it to make people believe in something that's
responsible for making them be "bad" people? How good do
people want to make themselves look before they stop trying?
What
are you doing to stop all the "wrongs" ,as you so view
them, that are being committed by people claiming to be Christian.
All the preaching and ministering is obviously working wonders, but
you got any more ideas?
Why
do you believe I could be "more scared," in a sense, of
what a radically passionate Christian is going to do to this nation,
than any scientist?
What
kind of message does it send about God when gay hater Ted Haggart
turned out to be gay? At least the God of his church.
What's
wrong with finding the God within? How can one damn to hell the very
virtues at the top of the Christian ladder just because they weren't
interpreted in the same? Don't you realize that's what interpret
means? No two ways completely alike.
