Points on Religion - Page 3

God's Plan is based on a personal relationship with Him -- He didnt particularly like organized religion -- For those that go and benefit -- Church can be a means of recharging your batteries for the week !

That is the essence of education. You can choose to either agree or disagree on what you are taught. My morals have no connection to christianity

---

So then you hold no morals that are also held by Christians?

The source and foundation of my morals are not from christianity- that is what I am saying

The majority of your life was spent learning Christianity (or so you say) and yet you claim that this has not impacted your morals in anyway. Either you had really bad teachers or you hadn't paid any attention.

You are assuming that if you are taught christianity, you must accept it or else...

My purpose of going to school was not to learn about christianity. That was a minor part of my life. Just because someone thoroughly learns about christianity doesn't mean they have to accept it as their moral foundation.

Not so you do not have to accept it but some of it will become subconcious.

the problem with religions, mainly christianity, is that they teach you a form of chaos theory... humans are born evil.

this is in no way true, i dont know where i got my morales from, they are just there... they definatly did not come from my parents, my parents are crazy...

humans are like any animal, they will kill if need be... but they would rather work in a pack for a common cause ( think of wolves )

Humans would rather control the pack for individual gain.

that's true, however humans, along with wolves know if they are able to overthrow the current leader...

i quote myself here

quote:

---

they will kill if need be...

---

if they believe strong enough, ONE of them will attempt to kill ONE other. this is nature of all living entities and religious, so far, has done little to stop it. and i doubt it ever will.

quote:

---

they will kill if need be

---

If by need you mean because they want a new car then sure. Fact is humans usually don't kill out of need but rather out of selfish ambition.

yeah, and is religion fixing this? most psycho killers are super religous.

Super religious maybe but not Christians.

What utter hypocracy! you must be blind to reality. Christianity- is one of the most violent religions.

what summit said, but differently...

muslims and hindus right now are the most violent religoin if you want to look at total deaths caused...

christianity however produces the most "jesus told me to cut out his eyes and eat them, then stick my toe in his noes and..." psychopath killers.

False. You are under the wrong impression of what Christianity is. People may use God's name but that doesn't mean anything. I could kill people and tell them summit made me do it would that make you in anyway guilty?
