Re: Hate Speech In Religious Texts
If only it were that simple, Christians would not have been killing each other for many centuries over the issue of who is a Christian. Ironically, all its various factions have resorted to initiating force in order to resolve that problem. Not very Christian, unless you ignore Christ's command in Luke 19:27, that is. Or his outburst regarding Chorazin and Bethsaida. Or a few other bits of the New Testament. Or huge chunks of the Old Testament. If you try to argue that the OT is not part of Christian doctrine, you'll have to account for the facts that it's part of the Christian holy book that occupies space on the pulpits of all Christian churches, and that it is regularly used to instruct Christians.Seth wrote:There is objective criteria for determining who is a Christian. It's right there in the New Testament.

What, are you, trying to argue?
Do you think the bible, "is literal?"
It's not.
So, you can not hang us, on that.
Hate speech? Ya, "full of it".
Calls jews, "sons of the devil". John 8:44
Says adulterous women? "should be stoned".
Homosexuals? "Should be executed".
Drunkards, "ridiculed".
Children? "beat with rods".
Gentiles? "they are like dogs"
Women? "silent".
You know, on and on.
So yes, if I may interject
"Guilty".
That's why we needed "a new bible".

You see?

Irrelevant. Christians have been smashing each others' skulls in regardless of whether it is or not. It's cherrypicking that rules. Not only is that easily done - it is necessary, given the number of occasions where one verse flatly contradicts another.Mark Dreher wrote:What, are you, trying to argue?Hermit wrote:If only it were that simple, Christians would not have been killing each other for many centuries over the issue of who is a Christian.

Re: Hate Speech In Religious Texts
the bible could be about one page long. "Love others" and "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you". The rest is totally unnecessary. Mark, sort it out, bro.

No, you are "trying to prove the bible, wrong".
That's OK.
Got to talk about, something.

Contradictory? Yes.

Bigoted? Yes.
Hateful? Yes.
You see?
I agree with you.

Better, and better, as I go along.

That, refers, to "the prowess of Solomon", who had 1000, concubines.
And, an additional, "200 official, wives", whom, "he allowed, to keep the fruit" of his loins.
200 wives, given the honor, "of being pregnant", with his child.
And a 1000, sex slaves, "which could not".
They had, to abort
"Just, to keep up"
With this guy.
And..

Re: Bro ski
What you've got to realise, Mark, is that Christians, like all conservatives, need to moralise about something. Without moral laws written down for them, they couldn't get all upset by what others do that have nothing to do with them. I think that's what all the other fluff in the bible is. Stuff to let Christians "authoritatively" piss everyone else off with.Mark Dreher wrote:rEvolutionist wrote:the bible could be about one page long.

Yep, that would be good.

Oh hell yes.
The "bad guys", man they're everywhere.
Got to get them.
But who, are "the bad guys?"
Everyone, we have a prejudice, against.
Everyone, has got something, "on them".
Everyone, but me.
Hmm.. we all say that.
All, "is bad", nare one, me.
That, is our psyche, Christians.
And, "we're not very good dancers"
I've noticed.
No Napoleon Dynamite, or nothing.
