If proven falseilleg@lmonkey77 postedBronze Age Beliefs: -The Earth was flat -Spitting on a wound cured it -Constellations were celestial beings -Sea monsters were considered a legitimate hazard If all of these things have been proven dead wrong, why do we still believe in silly religious beliefs such as drinking the blood of a cosmic Jewish zombie and eating of his flesh with the promise of everlasting life at his side? Sponsored Link-------------------------- hasse_john repliedYour implication is that the above errors are supported by scripture? I don't suppose you would like to quote chapter and verse...? Your caricature of true faith is neither accurate nor amusing. April repliedYou know what? If you want to believe that a bunch of star dust just poofed together and somehow all life on earth just came into being, be my guest. But that isn't any less "silly" than believing that some form of intelligent life created all this. Tom repliedthanks your insensitive anti-religious remarks. i dont see how any of those examples prove any purpose. christians believe that the pope and Church are infallible (cannot be wrong) in issues of faith and morality. they can be wrong in other things since the Church is a human AND divine institution. If you dont like what christians believe, what they have faith in, then no one is forcing you to believe it. Eli repliedhehehe! I love questions like yours! The Bible. If you read it, you will find tons of science facts that we are only now beginning to learn about and they were written at least two thousand years ago or much more! Look at Biblical prophesy has it ever been wrong? The answer is a resounding --- NO! That Jewish Zombie, I love Him and He died for me. So my friend who would die for you? Scary stuff! Read the Bible and learn of our destiny. Love you man, I want you to live forever! leximac repliedasking questions that you dont want the answer to is dumb, but asking questions that you already know have now answer is even more stupid. if youre looking for a petty word fight try the playground little boy Lives7 repliedBecause Jesus is Real. YOU ARE WRONG replied"The God Who Wasn't There" was a great movie, huh? Anyway, it gives comfort to some people that everything is going to be alright. Phil Aysho repliedBecause Christianity is obviously not false. say_no_2_religion repliedBecause of religious indoctrination and the use of fear by religious leaders has kept religion around and will still keep it around liddabet repliedHasn't been proven false. Never will be. Nobody can prove or disprove everlasting life. Oh well. Namaste! Darwin repliedGo figure. frakusa 666 repliedSome people haven't yet exited from the bronze age, spiritually speaking. mark h repliedI would say that you characterization of Christ is as exaggerated as your claim that these false beliefs somehow relate to Christ. Hope that helps. i dont know who i am? repliedmaybe you need to realise how much christianity has spread and still is in the world today, what you call silly has not been proven wrong has it SuperAtheist repliedYou will recall that in some parts of the world you can still be legally slaughtered for NOT believing. Even in less savage countries, the craziness is deeply ingrained. THE FIST OF CHUCK NORRIS repliedBecause there are people making a profit from it and it is comforting. cristineae repliedMaybe because it's true? That belief wouldn't last for 2000 years if it wasn't true. -)
