We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

Is pretty much the best sentence in the English language.

MarsMudoken 12-14-2009 03:11 PM

Didn't God also say something about black men being created as slaves?

I didn't mean it was devoid of any goodness, but Life and the Pursuit of Happiness get kind of stalled when you come to the second amendment in this day and age.

If catholocism turns out to be true...

I'm screwed.

That's God's eternal love.

No, Man said that and claimed it was God's will. Big difference.

I HATE THE BIBLE! IT'S NO MORE THAN A BUNCH OF WEIRD CONFUSING BABBLE, IN FACT...

Until you've read it, you're not allowed to make that sort of claim.


In fact, until you make a coherent point, you're not allowed to post in this thread. This is an official warning that you will be infracted unless you actually contribute.

*innocent smile*

Eh heh heh...heh...sigh.

Alright the title says 'Catholocism: Your view?', so I'm saying I hate it, K?

Anonyman! 12-14-2009 04:38 PM

I think they're better than protestants, generally. Less likely to whine if you're not Christian. And they're usually really shitty at being religious.

They also believe in Evolution and tell their members to not be mean to gays and sinners. Hate the sin, not the sinner yada yada

Would you care to explain why you hate it? I don't think this is what Nate had in mind.

MarsMudoken 12-14-2009 08:08 PM

Why? Because it freakin ruined Rome. It turned Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto, Venus, the gods...into the pope. A stupid guy in a stupid hat who looks stupid. I hate god.

Nate 12-14-2009 08:15 PM

Then you must hate Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto and Venus, seeing as they are gods too.

How could you not love this guy?

MarsMudoken 12-14-2009 10:08 PM

Cool.

And 'God', is the singular christian, jew, catholic etc almighty being. I'm talkin' about the GOOD ones!:D

Josh 12-14-2009 10:23 PM

So, you believe in multiple gods? There is a religion for that.....

Nate 12-14-2009 10:34 PM

And, Mars, how do you worship your Gods?

Strike Witch 12-14-2009 11:56 PM

He mentions them on internet message boards.

slig# 5719 12-15-2009 01:08 AM

Wow Mars... Old school :p.

Anyway, now that people better understand the world I don't think religion is needed as much as it was. People used to (some probably still do) Sacrifice people or objects to make sure the sun rose, we now know that isn't necessary. People knew that the earth was flat and the earth was the center of the universe, we now know this isn't true (the guy who theorised that the earth revolved around the sun was killed I believe).

I'm blabbering on again. Basically what I'm saying is as human knowledge increases human faith slowly decreases. We now have more explanations then; God did it, he works in mysterious ways, DON'T QUESTION HIM!!!

My view on religion is strangely similar to my view on Software Engineering; Postel's Law states "Be conservative in what you do, be liberal in what you accept from others". Or, to phrase it another way, follow your own religion strictly but don't get bothered by (or interfere with) what anyone else does.

There we go! I exactly do agreed with ths

OANST 12-15-2009 06:15 AM

Which would be fantastic if everyone felt that way, and didn't think it necessary to either legislate their beliefs or murder for them.

On behalf of OANST and myself, Wiccans make me sad. Mind you, any religion makes me sad.

I think you're saying a load of crap.

Sincerely I believe in God my way, I often need him, don't ask me why because I can't explain it... but I also DON'T LIKE Vatican, the current pope, and I sometimes don't like how priests preach and how they act. I like praying (alone), I think it's something that doesn't take a lot of time and that help me to be attuned to something great. Since I was a kid, it makes me feel good.

OANST 12-15-2009 07:28 AM

AiN is far too nice.

STM 12-15-2009 08:14 AM

MarsMudoken you aren't serious in saying you believe in the false pagan gods that are Jupiter, Zeus, Aries etc, I am most glad that christianity devoured Rome and rekindled the atrocities there into a christianic empire. And if you are serious in saying you sacrificed food, a burnt offering? Did you correctly say the penitential rights or the rights of your false religion (funilly enough isn't included in the religious census) if you didn't than bahah it didn't work!!!! Baal failed, Moloch failed, Asherah failed, who hasn't to God

Oh my.

This is something.

Wings of Fire 12-15-2009 08:20 AM

There's ignorance, then there's ignorance and then there's this.

STM 12-15-2009 08:20 AM

indeed it is! I like to fully cover my points when I make a rare insult. Too mean?

Scrabtrapman, you aren't serious in saying that you believe in the false Christian god that is God, are you? I am most glad that some people are independent/sane enough to live without feeling as though a powerful madman is constantly watching over them. And if you are serious in saying that God is lovely, have you considered the fact that he must have also created parasites, cancer and every single severe illness?

AIN, you're alright. Anything I say about your God isn't personal.

MeechMunchie 12-15-2009 08:57 AM

No, we are noting that while everybody else gives reasoning for their views, you just blare off into GODLESS HEATHEN-isms.

EDIT: OJA = Speedy shit.
