    The Sabbath

    Example 1What the commandments stand for is the direction of human affairs by God.If 99% of Americans believe in the ten commandments, how can the Bible be repulsive?

    Let's take the fourth commandment as an example. It says:

    Remember the sabbath day, and keep it holy. For six days you shal l labour and do al l your wo rk. But the

    seventh day is a sabbath to the Lord your God ; you shal l not do any workyou, your son or you r daughter, your

    male or female slave, your livestock, or the alien resident in your towns. [Exod us 20: 8-9]

    This, supposedly, is the word of God, the almighty ruler of the universe. But hold on, Walmart, Target, Bestbuy, Lowes and tons of

    buisnesses are open on the Sabath, Even FamilyChristian works on sundays!

    What should we do with all of these people who are breaking the fourth commandment?In the Bible's book of exodus - the same book that contains the ten commandments the Bible tells us what to do with everyone

    who breaks the fourth commandment. In the bible it says:

    For six days, work is to be done, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of rest, holy to the L ORD. Whoever does any

    work on the Sabbath day must be put to death. [Exodus 31: 15]

    That's right. The Bible commands the death penalty for anyone who works on the Sabbath, and we should obey. Right? This means

    we have to kill tens of millions of Americans. I think we can all agree that the thought of killing millions of innocent Americans is

    repulsive. A book this repulsive has no place in our society.And make no mistake about it - the bible really means what it says. It fully intends to be repulsive. In Isaiah 40 verse 8 the Bible

    says:

    The grass withers, the flower fades; but the word of our God will stand for ever. [Isaiah 40 verse 8]

    The Bible says the same thing in 1 Peter 1 verses 24 and 25.

    And in Psalm 19:7 the Bible says:

    The law of the Lord is perfect.Since the laws of the Bible are perfect, they should never change.

    [Psalm 19: 7]

    And then there is this

    For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the Pharisees and the teachers of th e law, you

    will certainly not enter the kingdom of heaven. [Matthew 5: 20]

    According to Jesus, we must follow the laws of the Bible.

    Do you believe that we should kill millions of innocent people because they work on the Sabbath? If not, do you want a book this

    repulsive to be quoted in public? Read to children? Used in our courts of law?

    No Other Gods Before Us

    Example 2The Bible wants us to kill most people in America. For example, the first commandment says,

    "Thou shalt have no other Gods before me." [Exodus 20:3]

    What are we supposed to do with everyone who doesn't believe in God? We are supposed to Kill them. Deuteronomy chapter 17

    says that we are supposed to stone non-believers to death.

    If a manor wom an l iv ing among you in on e of the towns the LORD gives you is found doing evi l in the eyes of

    the LORD your God in vio lat ion of his covenant, and contrary to my command has worsh iped other gods, bowing

    down to them or to the sun or the moon or the stars of the sky Take the man or woman who has done this evil

    deed to your city gate and stone that person to death. [Deut 17:2-7]

    In 2 Chronicles 15:12-13:They entered into a covenant to seek the Lord, the God of their fathers, with all their heart an d soul; and

    everyone who w ould not seek the Lord, the God of Israel , was to be put to d eath, whether sm al l or great, whether

    man or woman. [2 Chronicles 15:12-13]

    Deuteronomy 13:13-19:

    Suppose you hear in one of the towns the LORD your God is giving you that some worthless rabble among you

    have led their fellow citizens astray by encouraging them to worship foreign gods. In such casesyou must

    attack that tow n and co mpletely destroy al l i ts inhabitants, as wel l as al l the livestock. Then you m ust pi le al l the

    plunder in the m iddle of the street and burn it . Put the ent ire town to the torch as a burn t offer ing to the LORD

    your God. [Deuteronomy 13:13-19]

    Deuteronomy 13:7-12:

    If your own full brother, or your son or daughter, or your beloved wife, or you int im ate fr iend, ent ices you

    secretly to serve other gods do not yield to him or listen to him, nor look with pity upon him, to spare or shield

    him, but kill him. [Deuteronomy 13:7-12]

    What if you take the name of the lord in vain?

    Anyone who blasphemes the name of the LORD must be put to death. The entire assembly must stone him.

    [Levitic us 24:16]

    If your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut i t o ff and throw it away. It is better for you to enter l i fe maimed or

    cr ippled than to have two h ands or tw o feet and be thrown into eternal f i re. And if yo ur eye causes you to sin,

    gouge it out and thro w it away. It is better for you to enter l i fe with one eye than to have two eyes and be throw n

    into the fire of hell. [Matthew 18:7-9]

    This verse is repulsive because it wants people to harm themselves.

    Cutting off your hand or gouging out an eye accomplishes nothing. If you are having a problem with unproductive behaviors, what

    you need to do is talk with a counselor or see a therapist. Self-amputation is absurd and repulsive. Jesus dispenses advice that is

    completely useless, and recklessly dangerous as well.

    Repulsive Laws

    Example 8The Bibles absolute sexism is well known, and it is repulsive. Here are two examples:

    Women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the

    Law says. If they want to inquire about som ething, they should ask their own h usbands at hom e; for i t is

    disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church. [1 Corinthians 14:34-35]

    Let a woman learn in silence with all submissiveness. I permit no woman to teach or to have authority over men;

    she is to keep silent. [1 Timoth y 2:11-12]

    Example 9The Bible fully supports slavery. In fact, the Bible has been used in many cases, including the American civil war, as an authoritative

    justification of slavery. Here are two examples.

    Your male and female slaves are to comefrom the nat ions around you; from them you m ay buy slaves. You may

    also buy some of the temporary residents l iv ing among you and memb ers of their clans born in your coun try,

    and they wi l l become your pro perty. You can wil l them to your chi ldren as inher i ted property and can make them

    slaves for life, but must not rule over your fellow Israelites ruthlessly. [Leviticus 25:44-46]

    If a man beats his male or female slave with a rod and the slave dies as a direct result, he must be punished, but

    he is not to be punished if the slave gets up after a day or two, since the slave is his property. [Exodus Chapter

    21:20-21]

    If you are an intelligent person, you know that he entire idea of slavery is repulsive.

    The Bible is riddled with repulsion. Take, for example, this verse:

    Anyone who is captured will be run through with a sword. Their little children will be dashed to death right

    before their eyes. [Isaiah 13:15-16]

    Samaria shall bear her guilt, because she has rebelled against her God; they shall fall by the sw ord, their l i t t le

    ones shall be dashed in pieces, and their pregnant women ripped open. [Hosea 13:16]

    Now therefore, kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known man by lying with

    him. But al l the young g ir ls who have not known man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves. [Numbers

    31:17-18]

    You get the picture. The Bible is repulsive.

    The Bible demands that we kill everyone who works on the Sabbath. The Bible commands us to kill teenagers who drink too much.

    The Bible empowers us to enslave people of other nations. The Bible commands that we oppress women and kill people who

    happen to be homosexual. A book this repulsive has no place in our society. It is time for the intelligent, thoughtful people of this

    nation to acknowledge this simple fact and act on it.

    Divorce

    You are not allowed to be divorced OR remarry

    "Wh osoever putteth away his wife, and marr ieth another, comm itteth adultery: and who soever marr ieth her that

    is put away from her husband com mitteth adultery." [Luke 16:18]

    You are in competition with your family?

    "For I am come to set a man at var iance against his father, and the daughter against her mo ther, and the

    daughter in law against her mother in law. And a man's foes sh al l be they of his ow n hous ehold. He that loveth

    father or mother more than me is not w orthy of m e: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not

    worthy of m e." [Matthew 10:35-27]

    So believing in God, according to the Bible, is like a life-or-death game of Family Double Dare, only instead of having color-coded

    teams it's every man [woman and child] for themselves.

    How to Use:So next time someone says "family first" it's probably them tricking you into loving God less than you should, just so you'll go to hell

    and they won't. So, according to The Bible every time a mother tells her child that family is the most important thing in the world,they're really condemning their child to an eternity of fire, brimstone and suffering.

    So, once again, all you need to do to prove this point in front of anyone is really just to ask them about their family and what's most

    important to them.

    What the Bible Says About Prayer

    If the Bible is literally true, then something is seriously amiss. Simply look at the facts.

    In Matthew 7:7 Jesus says:

    Ask, and it will be given you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For every one who

    asks receives, and he who seeks f inds, and to him w ho kno cks it wi l l be opened. Or what man of yo u, i f his son

    asks him for bread, wi l l give him a ston e? Or if he asks for a f ish, wi l l give him a serpent? If you then, who are

    evi l , know h ow to give good g if ts to your chi ldren, how muc h more wi l l your Father who is in heaven give good

    things to those who ask him!

    If "every one who asks receives", then if we ask for cancer to be cured, it should be cured. Right? If "our Father who is in heaven

    gives good things to those who ask him", then if we ask him to cure cancer, he should cure it. Right? And yet nothing happens.

    In Matthew 17:20 Jesus says:

    For truly, I say to you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, 'Move from

    here to there,' and it will move; and nothing will be impossible to you.

    If "nothing will be impossible to you", then if we ask to cure cancer tonight, cancer should disappear. Right? Yet nothing happens.

    Note that if we take the Bible less-than-literally here, the statement "nothing will be impossible to you" becomes "lots of things will be

    impossible to you," and that would mean that Jesus is lying.

    In Matthew 21:21:

    I tell you the truth, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the fig tree, but also

    you can s ay to this m ountain, 'Go, throw yoursel f into the s ea,' and it wi l l be do ne. If you bel ieve, you wil l receive

    whatever you ask for in prayer.

    If "you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer", then if we ask to cure cancer tonight, cancer should dissappear. Right? Yet

    nothing happens. Note again that there is not a non-literal way to interpret "you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer", unless

    you replace "whatever" with "nothing" or " little."

    The message is reiterated Mark 11:24:

    Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and itwill be yours.

    If God says, "believe that you have received it, and it will be yours," and if we believe in God and his power, then what should

    happen if we pray to cure cancer tonight? It should be cured. Either that, or God is lying.

    In John chapter 14, verses 12 through 14, Jesus tells all of us just how easy prayer can be:

    " I te l l you the truth, anyone w ho has fai th in m e wil l do what I have been doing. He wil l do even greater things

    than these, because I am going to the Father. And I wi l l do w hatever you ask in m y name, so that the Son m ay

    bring glory to the Father. You may ask me for anything in m y name, and I wi l l do it ."

    Look at how direct this statement is: "You m ay ask me for anything in m y name, and I wi l l do it ." This is the "Son of God"

    speaking. Have we taken him "too literally?" No. This is a simple, unambiguous statement. Have we taken his statement "out of

  • 8/12/2019 Religion is Wrong

    12/29

    context?" No - Jesus uses the word anyone. Yet Jesus' statement is obviously false. Because when we ask God to cure cancer

    tonight, nothing happens.

    We see the same thing over and over again

    In Matthew 18:19 Jesus says:

    Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in

    heaven. For w here two or three are gathered in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

    In James 5:15-16 the Bible says:

    And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will

    be forgiven. Therefore confess you r sins to each other and pray for each other so that you m ay be healed. The

    prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.

    In Mark 9:23:

    All things are possible to him who believes.

    In Luke 1:37:

    For with God nothing will be impos sib le.Nothing cou ld be simpler or clearer than Jesus' promises about prayer

    in the Bible.

    Yet, when we pray to eliminate cancer, nothing happens.And keep in mind that this is Jesus talking here. These are not the words of human beings. These are not the words of "inspired"

    human beings. These are supposedly the words of God himself, incarnated in a human body. Jesus is supposed to be a perfect,

    sinless being. And yet, it is obvious that Jesus is lying. What Jesus says is clearly incorrect.

    Excuses Christians Will Use

    A favorite Christian rationalization for why God does not answer our prayer to eliminate cancer is because

    "it would take away free will." The logic: If you pray and God answers your prayer, then God would have revealed himself to you,

    and you would know that God exists. That would take away your free will to believe in him. Of course, if this is true, then by default

    all of Jesus' statements about prayer in the Bible are false. It means that God cannot answer any prayer. Also, why is a God who

    must remain hidden like this incarnating himself and writing the Bible?

    If Jesus is God, and if God is perfect, why aren't all of Jesus's verses about prayer true? Was Jesus exagerating? Was he fibbing? If

    Jesus is perfect, why wouldn't he speak the truth? Why doesn't a prayer to cure cancer worldwide tomorrow work?Believers have many different ways to explain why all these verses in the Bible do not work, even if you are praying sincerely,

    unselfishly and non-materialistically, and even if the answer to your prayer would help millions of people and glorify God in the

    process. They will say things like this: "You need to understand what Jesus was saying in the context the first century civilization in

    which he was speaking..."or:"When Jesus talked about 'moving a mountain', he was speaking metaphorically. When someone says, 'it is raining cats and dogs,'

    no one takes him literally. Jesus was using a figure of speech rather than speaking literally..."or:

    13/29

    God is not a thing. He is a being. He has a will. He has desires. He relates to people. He has personality traits. Prayer is a fancy

    word for talking to God. God, who knows everything, even before we say it, knows the difference between our thoughts and wishes,

    and when we are actually addressing him. He hears our prayers and responds. His responses are based on his personal decisions.

    We cannot predict how he will respond to our prayers... The primary problem with these rationalizations is that they miss the point.

    The fact is that God never answers any prayers, as discussedhere.Going one step further, the problem is that all of these rationalizations miss two other important points:

    1. God is supposed to be an all-powerful, all-knowing, perfect being.2. The statement, "Nothing will be impossible for you", along with the other Bible verses quoted above, are

    false. The fact is, lots of things are impossible for you.

    If a perfect being is going to make statements about how prayer works in the Bible, then three things are certain:

    1] He would speak clearly2] he would say what he means,3] he would speak the truth. That is what "being perfect" is all about.

    A perfect, all-knowing God would know that people would be reading the Bible 2,000 years later, and therefore he would not use

    first-century idioms [he would say what he means]. He would know that normal people will be reading the Bible and interpreting it in

    normal ways, so he would speak in such a way as to avoid mis-interpretation [he would speak clearly]. He would know that when

    you say, "Noth ing wi l l be imposs ible for you",that what it means is, "Nothing will be impossible for you" and he would make sure

    that the statement "Nothing will be impossible for you" is accurate [he would speak the truth]. If God says it, it should be true --

    otherwise he is not perfect. Unfortunately, the fact is that thousands of things are impossible for you no matter how much you pray,

    and no one [including Jesus] has ever moved a mountain. In order to see the truth, you need to accept the fact that all of the above

    verses are wrong. The fact is, God does not answer prayers. The reason why God does not answer your prayers is simple: God is

    imaginary.

    A Day is A Day

    A Day is A Day

    FACT: the world is at least 4.6 billion years old. The bible claims to be approximately 6,500. Christians try to argue this by saying

    the usage of the word day in genesis is actually a term for thousands of years in time. This rationalization, they believecan help

    evolution be accepted into the bible. In other words Christians are trying to say that the word day is not meant to be as a 24 hour

    period. This idea is COMPLETELY FALSE AND NOT PLAUSIBLE. All it takes is a little research into the meaning of the Hebrew

    word for day and the usage of it in consistency. Of course, it should be common knowledge that the first five books of the Old

    Testament were written in Hebrew. The Hebrew word for day used in the genesis is account is yom, which is a definite 24 -hour

    period. Christians attempt to say that because there was no sun until the fourth day, that the word yom is null and void. This cant

    be, for the lord claimed there was light, a morning and an evening PRIOR to the sun being created, hence the sun was not even

    needed. [Also note another contradiction here, that Christians/Jews refuse to notice. Theyll claim the word yom is void becausethere is no sun, yet that would mean that there couldnt have been light or a way to decipher between morning and evening.

    Obviously this is a MAJOR scientific blunder on Jehovahs behalf.] Now this fact alone pretty much blows the shit out of the bible,

    but lets pretend to accept the word yom is really meant for eons of time, how then can we reconcile the following?:

    1] If a day is an era, why are an evening and a morning even mentioned? Actual days must be intended, otherwise, men who lived

    hundreds of years, e.g., Seth and Noah, would really have lived millions of years. If a day is an era, then a year must be

    tremendously long, perhaps encompassing hundreds of millions of years;

    2] If a day is an era, then much of the Old Testament becomes chaotic. For example, in each of the following verses the same

    Hebrew word yom is employed: And the flood was forty days upon the earth[Genesis 7: 1 7], And he[Moses]was there with the

    Lord forty days and forty nights[Exodus 34:28], and Thus I fell down before the Lord forty days and forty nights...[Deuteronomy

    9:25]. If yom means era instead of a 24-hour period, Moses was there with the Lordfor a VERY long time.

    3] If a day means more than 24-hour period, then how are we to interpret the following verses, as well as scores of others. Six

    days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the Sabbath. . . . in it thou shalt not work... For in six days the Lord

    made heaven and earth and rested the seventh day[Exodus 20:9-11].

    4] Genesis 1:16 [And God made two great lights: The greater light to rule the day and the lesser light to rule the night] states the

    sun rules the day and the moon rules the night. This obviously is referring to time as we know it, time with days that are 24 hours

    long with daylight ruling half of each.

    5] Adam was made on the sixth day [Genesis 1:26-31] which was supposedly thousand of years long. This was followed by the 7th

    day which was also thousands of years long. Following the 7th day, Adam fell into sin and was expelled from the Garden. This

    would mean Adam lived thousands of years, which is false, since he died at age 930 [Genesis 5:5].

    6] Genesis 1:5 surely spoke of literal day and literal night, and the inference from the statement, And the evening and the morning

    were the first day,is that it was a literal day of evening and morning, 24-hours. There is no Biblical evidence that the days of this

    chapter were longer periods.

    7] If we do try to buy into what the Jehovahs quote as a day can be a thousand yearseven this isnt sufficient enough time. For

    the earth is at least 4.6 billion. The biblical passages concerning time shouldve read that days can be like MILLIONS of years.

    Obviously, their claim falls apart under mathematic speculation.

    For those of you Christians who are STILL clinging to the idea that evolution can be reconciled with the bible, take a little advice

    from one of your own brethren on the matter. The following is a CHRISTIAN AUTHOR who admits that the word yom does mean a

    24 hour period in the creation account:

    "The Hebrew word for day is yom and this word can occasionally be used to mean an indefinite period of time, if the content

    warrants. In the overwhelming preponderance of its occurrences in the O.T., however, it means a literal day Still further, the

    plural form of the word [Hebrew 'yamim'] is used over 700 times in the O.T. and always, without exception, refers to literal days."

    [The Bible Has the Answers, Henry Morris, p. 94].

  • 8/12/2019 Religion is Wrong

    18/29

    Obviously even Creationist Morris admits the idea that each day represented an era is ridiculous. Not only is the day-age theory

    unacceptable scripturally, but it also is grossly in conflict with the geological position with which it attempts to compromise. My

    suggestion? Make a valid justification as to how the creation account can be plausible, until then dont pimp feeble lies tocover up

    for your even more errant book.

    Contradictions

  • 8/12/2019 Religion is Wrong

    19/29

    Law Contradictions of the Bible

    10] Shall we obey the law? Romans 13:1-7 says quite clearly that Christians are to submit to the law and regard it as the institution

    of God. 1 Peter 2:13-14 Submit your self to every ordinance of man ... to the king, as supreme; Or unto governors. Matthew

    22:21 Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesars. Also see Titus 3:1. Matthew 23:2-3 & Ecclesiastes 8:2 This

    leads one to assume that Christians must and should obey the law, yet look at these verses which contradicts what I just sited. Acts

    5:29 We ought to obey God rather then men. Exodus 1:17-20 shows God punishing the midwives for following their rulers instead

    of God. Also see Daniel 3:16-18, 6:7-10, Acts 4:26 & 27, Mark 12:38-40, Luke 23:11, 24 & 33-35 which all say the law should be

    ignored. Now we know why Christians get away with their selective morality so often.

    11] Should we steal? [Exodus 20:15 & Leviticus 19:13] Stealing is absolutely forbidden. Yet, Exodus 3:21-22, 12:35-36 & Luke

    19:29-34 all promote stealing.

    12] Should we judge? Jesus is quoted in Matthew 7:1-2: Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye

    shall be judged. Also see Luke 6:37 & 1 Corinthians 5:12. Now take a look at Judge not according to the appearance, but judge

    righteous judgment [John 7:24]. Also note 1 Corinthians 5:12 & 6:2-4.

    1 3] Should we covet? Exodus 20:17 says, Thou shalt not covet . . . anything that is thy neighbors, while 1 Corinthians 12:31

    says, Covet earnestly the best gifts. So, are we or are we not to covet?

    14] Is lying okay? Exodus 20:16. Proverbs 12:22 & Revelations 21:8 all say lying is forbidden. Joshua 2:4-6, Exodus 1:18-20 & 1

    Kings 22:21-22 all support lying.

    15] Can we kill? Exodus 20:13 says thou shalt not kill. Exodus 32:27, Numbers 31, and THOUSANDS of other verses show God

    commanding us to kill.16] Can we own slaves? Leviticus 25:45 Moreover of the children of the strangers that do sojourn among you, of them shall ye buy

    and they shall be your possession they shall be your bondmen forever. Genesis 9:25 And he [Noah] said, Cursed be

    Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren. Exodus21:2 & 7 If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years he shall

    serve: and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing And if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out

    as the menservants do. Joel 3:8 And I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the children of Judah, and they shall

    sell them to the Sabeans, to a people far off: for the Lord hath spoken it. Luke 12:47-48 [Jesus speaking] And that servant, which

    knew his lords will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes. But he that knew

    not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. Colossians 3:22

    Servants, obey in all things your masters. So obviously the Biblical God thinks slavery is right, right? Just look at these:

    Isaiah 58:6 Undo the heavy burdens... let the oppressed go free, ... break every yoke. Matthew 23:10 Neither be ye called

    Masters: for one is your Master, even Christ. [Also see Exodus 22:21 & 21:16] Let it be known here that pro-slavery Bible verses

    were cited by many churches in the South during the Civil War, and were used by some theologians in the Dutch Reformed Church

    to justify apartheid in South Africa. There are more pro-slavery verses than cited here. I simply do not have the room to post all ofthem.

    17] What about Improvidence? Improvidence is enjoined in Luke 12:3 Sell that ye have and give alms. also in Luke 6:30 & 35

    Give to every man that asketh of thee, and of him that taketh away thy goods, ask them not again ... And lend, hoping for nothing

    again, and your reward shall be great. Also note Matthew 6:28, 31 & 34. Improvidence is condemned in I Timothy 5:8 But if any

    provide not for his own, and especially for those of his own house, he hath denied the faith, and is worse than an infidel. Also see

    Proverbs 13:22.

    18] What does the law say about anger? Ephesians 4:26 says Be ye angry and sin not not. Anger is disapproved in Ecciesiastes

    7:9 Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry; for anger resteth in the bosom of fools. Proverbs 22:24 Make no friendship with an angry

    man. Also see James 1:20.

    10] Biblicists are not allowed to call anyone father [And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in

    heaven[Matthew 23:9]. Not only is this rule ignored on a DAILY BASIS, but Catholicism uses father as a specific t itle.

    11] Christians are not supposed to plan or prepare. God will provide [Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or that ye

    shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on... Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, not

    gather into barns; yet your heavenly father feedth them. Are ye not much better than they? --Matthew 6:25-34 & Luke 12:22-31

    inclusive]. I see Christian conservatives plot on a daily basis how to screw their employees so they can reap more profits.

    12] Lastly, Jesus, who clearly is of greater importance than Paul, said the Old Law was to remain in force until heaven and earthpassed away and all is accomplished [For truly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, nota dot, will pass the

    law until all is accomplished. Whoever then relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches men so, shall be called

    least in the kingdom of heaven; but he who does them and teaches them shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven-Matthew

    5:18-19 RSV]. Heaven and earth still exist and many prophecies are not yet fulfilled. How many times have you heard some lame

    ass Christian say the Old testament doesnt matter, Jesus was the lamb and abolished it? Dont let them get away with this shit for

    even the bible says that they should still be following the Old Law.

    This verse leads me into an observation of how clear their selective morality can be exposed. Take for instance how

    Biblicists approach the Old Testament. They leap in and out of the Old Law like a porpoise in a ships wake. If they like it, they

    quote it; if they dont, they wont. Among the scores of verses they enjoy and employ are those which teach the following:

    13] Contact with mediums or wizards is forbidden [Do not turn to mediums or wizards; do not seek them out to be defiled by them. I

    am the Lord your God-- Leviticus 19:3 1 RSV, see also: Leviticus 20:6 & Deuteronomy 18: 10-12]. Heres an interesting little stat;

    Christians more then any other faith consult mystics and self -proclaimed oracles.

    14] People should give one-tenth of their income to the Lord, which Biblicists equate with church [ And all the tithe of the land,

    whether of the seed of the land, or of the fruit of the tree, is the Lords...And concerning the tithe of the herd, or of the flock, even of

    whatsoever passeth under the rod, the tenth shall be holy unto the Lord--Leviticus 27:30-32]

    15] Tattoos are anathema: [You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh on account of the dea d or tattoo any marks upon you. I

    am the Lord--Leviticus 19:28] Despite this teaching I manage to see Mexican Catholics daily with tattoos of the Virgin Mary, Jesus

    or a set of praying hands on their forearms and shoulder blades.

    16] Money cannot be lent at interest to your brother, only to foreigners [Deuteronomy 23: 19-20] Ahhh, Im recalling all the Christian

    banking corporations....

    17] Eating pork is forbidden [Deuteronomy 14:8]. Hmm, Ive never met a Christian who DIDNT enjoy bacon and eggs.

    18] A man must marry and have relations with his dead brothers wife [Deuteronomy 25:5 -6]. This goes without explaining of

    course.

    19] A seducer must marry an unengaged virgin whom he seduces [Exodus 22:16-17]20] A raped, unengaged virgin must marry her rapist and they can never divorce [Deuteronomy 22:28-29]. What justice the moral

    majority advocates!

    21] There are several petty and silly little verses in the O.T., but none the less, they are to be followed. I guess its okay to disobey

    the lord for fashions sake. Beards cant be rounded [Leviticus 19:27]; A garment composed of wool and linen cant be worn

    [Deuteronomy 22:11]; Note: this explains why you will commonly see orthodox Jews with the long beards and black clothing. I say

    Christians should do this too so we can identify their stupidity upon first impression.

    22] Bastards cant enter the Lords congregation. [Deuteronomy 23:2] Hey, I know this is harsh, but God commands it, hence it

    must be just.

    All of these rules are part of the Old Covenant and of equal import. Why quote the Ten Commandments and ignore other

    tenets? A believers obligation to one is no less than his obligation to all. In fact, if under the New Covenant Christians have

    stepped into the shoes of the Israelites and become, in effect, the new Chosen People, then they should inherit all the privileges and

    duties of that office. They seem to want the former but not the latter. Biblicists teach, preach, and attempt to reach others with

    moralism, but are not averse to selectively using that which suits their interests.

    Id like to close this essay with how to catch a Christian in the act. When you see them expounding a verse and ignoring

    another, call them on it. I know what youll hear. Theyll say, thats from the Old Law and we arent under the Old Law anymore.

    Trip them with this: But arent the Ten Commandments part of the Old Law? Yes, but we are obligated to follow them because

    they are reported in the NT [Matthew 19:16-18, Mark 10:17-19 & Luke 18:18-22]. Immediately point out to them that Jesus omitted

    half of the Ten Commandments and invented a new one, though shall not defraud ! Before they can get a word in edge wise finish

    them off with: According to scripture it is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one tittle of law to fail [Luke 16:17 & Matthew

    5:18-19]. If sin is transgression of the law, as 1 John 3:4 says, then you should be following all of the Old Law. This, from

    experience, is the best way to shoot down these idiots and bar them from getting away with their hypocrisy.

    Kill everyone who has religious views that are different than your own. Deuteronomy 17:2-7

    Kill anyone who refuses to listen to a priest. Deuteronomy 17:12-13

    Any city that doesnt receive the followers of Jesus will be destroyed in a manner even more savage than that of Sodom and

    Gomorrah. Mark 6:11

    Jude reminds us that God destroys those who dont believe in him. Jude 5

    Ignorance is bliss. Christians should not practice free inquiry nor

    see your good works." 1 Peter 2:12 "Having your conversation honest among the Gentiles: that ... they may by your good works,

    which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation." This contradicts: Matthew 6:1-4 "Take heed that ye do not your alms

    before men, to be seen of themthat thine alms may be in secret." Matthew 23:3-5 "Do not ye after their [Pharisees'] works ... all

    their works they do for to be seen of men."

    23] Who did Jesus tell the Lords Prayer to? [Matthew 5:1, 6:9-13 & 7:28] Jesus delivered the Lords Prayer during the Sermon on

    the Mount before the multitudes. [Luke 11:1-4] He delivered it before the disciples alone, and not as part of the Sermon on the

    Mount.

    24] When was Christ crucified? Mark 15:25 "And it was the third hour and they crucified him." John 19:14-15 "And it was the

    preparation of the Passover, and about the sixth hour; and he saith unto the Jews, Beho ld your kingShall I crucify your king?"

    36] The Elijah mystery: [Malachi 4:5] Elijah must return before the final days of the world. [Matthew 11:12-14] Jesus said that John

    the Baptist was Elijah. [Matthew 17:12- 13] Jesus insists that Elijah has already come, and everyone understood him to mean John

    the Baptist. [Mark 9:13] Jesus insists that Elijah has already come. [John 1:21] John the Baptist maintained that he was not Elijah.

    "There will be signs in the sun, the moon, and the stars, and on earth nations will be in dismay, perplexed by the roaring of the sea

    and the waves. People will die of fright in anticipation of what is coming upon the world, for the powers of the heavens will be

    shaken. And then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. But when these signs begin to

    happen, stand erect and raise your heads because your redemption is at hand." He taught them a lesson. "Consider the fig tree

    and all the other trees. When their buds burst open, you see for yourselves and know that summer is now near; in the same way,

    when you see these things happening, know that the kingdom of God is near. Am en, I say to you, this generat ion wi l l not p ass

    10] John thinks he is living in the last times. He knows this because he sees so many antichrists around. 1 John 2:18

    11]John says that the antichrist was already present at the time 1 John was written. 1 John 4:3

    Pauls Predictions

    13]Paul thought that the end was near and that Jesus would return soon after he wrote these words. Philippians 4:5

    14] Paul believes he is living in the last days. Hebrews 1:2

    15]Paul believed that Jesus would come in a little while, and will not tarry. Hebrews 10:37

    16] In 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 Paul stated: For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the

    archangel, and with the trump of God: And the dead Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up

    together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air: And so shall we ever be with the Lord. Paul shared the delusion, taught

    by Jesus, in that he expected to be snatched up bodily into heaven with other saints then l iving, who would, thus, never taste death.

    The use of we clearly proves as much. It is difficult to deny that Paul was certain that the end of the world was coming in the

    lifetime of his contemporaries.

    There are many Christians and Jews who demand that the Ten Commandments should be displayed in public institutions. In my

    opinion it is only fair that if the commandments are to be displayed, so should the penalties for breaking those commandments.

    Matter of fact they should be posted in its entirety so that society can see just what kind of crap these religions are feeding us. I also

    encourage those of you Judeo/Christians who visit here to print out this very list and post it where your children can see it . Its time

    you explain to them what a murderous, unjust god you brainwash them into worshiping.

    1st. Commandment, Exodus 20:3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me. Old Testament punishment - Deuteronomy 17:1-5

    And hath gone and served other gods, and worshipped them, either the sun, or moon, or any of the host of heavens, which I have

    not commanded. Then shalt thou bring forth that man or that woman, which have committed that wicked thing and shalt stone them

    with stones, till they die. Deuteronomy 13:6-10, If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy

    bosom, or thy friend, which is of thine own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which thou hast not

    known, thou, nor thy fathers; Thou shalt not consent unto him, nor hearken unto him; neither shall thine eye pity him, neither shalt

    thou spare, neither shalt thou conceal him: But thou shalt surely kill him; thine hand shall be first upon him to put him to death, and

    afterwards the hand of all the people. Thou shalt stone him with stones, that he die; because he hath sought to thrust thee away

    from the Lord thy God." Exodus 22:20 He that sacrificeth unto any god, save unto the Lord only, he shall be utterly destroyed.

    New Testament punishment - Mark 16:16 He that believeth not, shall be damned.

    2nd. Commandment, Exodus 20:4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven

    above, or that is on the earth beneath, or that is in the water below. Old Testament punishment- Deuteronomy 27: 1 5 Cursed be

    the man that maketh any graven or molten image. Thats right kids dont EVER draw, sculpt or paint or else god will curse you.

    Wanna be an artist, a photographer, take a picture of yourself or family? TOO BAD, God says no! You better drop out of art class

    before he smites you with boils.3rd. Commandment, Exodus 20:7 Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord in vain. Old Testament punishment - Leviticus 24:16

    And he that blasphemeth the name of the Lord, he shall surely be put to death, New Testament punishment - Matthew 12:32

    Whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come. Mark

    3:29 - He that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgivness, butis in danger of eternal damnation.

    4th. Commandment, Exodus 20:8 Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Old Testament punishment - Exodus 31:15

    Whosoever shall work in the Sabbath day, he shall surely be put to death. Numbers 15:32. And whilethe children of Israel were

    in the wilderness, they found a man that gathered sticks upon the Sabbath dayAnd all the congregation brought him without th e

    camp, and stoned him with stones, and he died; as the Lord commanded Moses.

    5th. Commandment, Exodus 20:12 Honour thy father and thy mother. Old Testament punishment - Exodus 21:15-17 And he

    that smiteth his father, or his mother, shall be surely put to death. More punishment - Exodus 21:17 And he that curseth his father,

    or his mother, shall surely be put to death.

    6th. Commandment,Exodus 20:13 Thou shalt not kill. Strangely enough this is a commandment despite all the punishments thatrequire death in the New Testament and the Old Testament. How can thou not kill when thou is commanded to kill at the same

    time? This hypocrisy should be pointed out if the ten commandments are posted in schools, court rooms and buildings of

    legislation. The confusion of this commandment would surely bring capitol punishment into question.

    7th. Commandment,Exodus 20:14 Thou shalt not commit adultery. Old Testament punishment - Leviticus 20:10 And the man

    that committeth adultery with another mans wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall be put to death.

    For those of you Christians who disregard the Old Testament [even though Christ said it was forever binding], I have gathered

    together a great law from the New Testament. Romans 1 :29-32 Those filled with unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness,

    covetousness, maliciousness; envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, backbiters, hate for god, despite, proud,

    boasters, inventions of evil things, disobedience to parents, without understanding, covenant breakers, unnatural affection,

    implacable or unmerciful nature: Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death.

    Free Will, You Say?

    It is also written that I was given free will with which to choose if I will go to hell or not. How can you possibly deem

    something free when you must fear consequences? That completely conflicts with the definition of free. If I were to hold a gun to

    your head and say you have free will to not give me your wallet, but if you attempt to defy me I will kill you. Does it really feel as if

    you have a choice in the matter? Of course not. Free means to give or receive something with out an expectation of return. The

    whole free will concept is self defeating. Call it Circumstantial Will, for that is what it truly is.

    Despite this, I have still had the displeasure of debating with those Christians who accept hell as a rational and fair wrath

    of God. They defend Jehovahs creation of hell with the opinion that those who are committed to hell go voluntary, as if it is a

    consequence rather then a punishment. That indeed, we as children of God, chose rather to be hells inmates then Gods disciples

    in heaven. Its an interesting idea. However, you dont have to hurt anyone to get into Hell. All it takes, according to Scripture, is

    knowing about Jesus and not accepting him as Savior. It doesnt matter how virtuous you are, how much good you do, how happy

    an environment you create for others. Given this, the voluntary entry argument doesnt make sense. The same argument could be

    used to justify the sending of Aryan opponents of Nazism to concentration camps: they voluntarily chose not to give homage to

    Hitler, so they chose to be interred. Why should we blame the Nazis for the inmates choice? Why should we blame God for the choice of the damned?

    God Is The Creator Of Evil

    I am frustrated at two specific verses in the bible, which applies to this particular topic. The first is the biblical statement

    that God is the Alpha and the Omega. Loosely defined it means the beginning and the end, the all knowing. Which ofcourse

    implies that all of his actions and the results are fore known to him. I have a real problem with this notion. For if God was to know

    ahead of time that someday he would send me to hell for being an Atheist, I ask what was the purpose in him creating me in the first

    place? Was it simply to watch me be tortured? That seems to be the most logical explanation. I can think of no other rational

    explanation, nor neither has any Christian who I posed this question to. Some people have attempted to tell me that God has a

    purpose unknown to us, and that we must simply accept his will. Would you keep a friend who commits evil and offers no self-

    justification or remorse? Of course not, so why is this same judgment not applied to God? Its seems rather contradictory that this

    trait is despised in humanity, yet, it is worshiped in religion.

    Secondly, I want to reinforce the fact that God is indeed the creator of evil. Please read verse Isaiah 45:7. I form the

    light and create darkness. I make peace and create evil. I the lord do all these things. The Christian God outright claims that he is

    indeed the source of evil. So how can he then claim to be sinless?

    To be more specific, lets talk about the lords creation of evil, lets talk about the conception of Satan. This being was

    created and unleashed by God. Jehovah knew [for he is the all knowing] that at the time of Lucifers creation he would eventually

    become Satan, and spend his existence reeking havoc on man kind. Leading people into criminal activities. Suppose I were to

    build an evil robot, that I knew would go around torturing and murdering people. Whose fault would it be if I let it loose? Mine or the

    robots? Of course it would be mine, for I created it with that purpose and unleashed it for that purpose. Now I ask you, whose fault

    is deviltry in the world? Is it the PUPPET Satan or the being that deliberately created Satans evil?

    Now God Plays Switch-A-Roo And Humans Are The Creators Of Evil Not only does the bible imply, but so do many

    Christians, that we as a people are the creator of evil. It is clear for reading the bible that this is untrue, but the speculation still

    remains. Supposedly, when Adam and Eve fell from grace, they single handedly brought evil into the world. All you have to do is

    think logically for a moment, and you will obviously see something is very unjust with this concept. Could any rational being hold a

    starving infant in Ethiopia responsible for the actions of two long dead people? Or perhaps, would you find it fair to be convicted of

    Jack the Rippers crimes? The connection in both of these instances are not only ludicrous but, disgusting to nod your head at.

    People who use this argument are simply attempting to rationalize sadism.

    I must declare that a Christian that walks into a childrens ward and insists that it is correct that children suffer as a result

    of the original sin, must destroy themselves of all compassion and mercy. I insist that those who worship the lord knowing this

    hypocrisy must be as cruel as the Christian God he/she believes in. A complete and utter moral degenerate, taking stabs at

    protecting their belief system. A person as such would just as easily worship Satan as God in their blindness and faith. For

    apparently, no amount of evidence could convince him that God was bad once they decided to worship him; their basic assumption

    is that they are correct, which makes them untouchable by any amount of rationality.
