    hehe - lol...

    Adam and Eve were inbred - they didn;t have much else to do in the garden of eden. Actually, Inbreeding depression is (usually) a result of deleterious recessives coming through. There is no reason to assume that they would have had any, since God would have created them without any "bad genes" in the first place... :)

    No i dont have a prob with religons except for those who's sole purpose in life is to convert other people.


    If there is a right religon at all i would have to say Buhddism. It is actually more a way of life than it is a religon.


    Who put that nice little picture next to my name?


    Adam and Eve didnt have sex while in the GArden. It was a sin free place so they didnt have any lust for the opposite sex. Bad genes does not make the person messed up when inbreeding. They get messed up because the genes are too similar

    On you being the GMOTW.
    http://www.sorcerers.net/ubb/faq.html#plaques

    Go read that. And the rest of that whole page. And try really, really hard to improve your spelling and grammar (or use the spell-checker link on top of every page), or your excursion to these boards might end prematurely.

    Goodness me! If your spelling was that bad (even without proof reading) at 16 in England you would have been sent down a year. You Americans crack me up!

    It is an interesting point you raise about the inbreeding, however if you were capable of reading the rest of the Bible (you can't spell I can only presume you are unable to read) you would notice that Adam and Eve's children start to kill each other. This may suggest the dire side effects of shagging your sister. And also tells you that Christians realise the bad in inbreeding.

    I agree with you to a certain point on the subject of forcing people into the Christian faith. I have verbally attacked many a budding Jesus on my front doorstep even after I had made it perfectly clear that I did not want a Bible, I wasn't prepared to join his strange little church and I CERTAINLY wasn't under any obligation to present him with gifts of tea and biscuits.

    In England, especially in middle class housing estates, the problem gets a little overwhelming. It is perfectly acceptable for the one and only 'Church of the coming of Christ' in our area to send representatives to our door and ask for new members. It is, however another thing to come and badger us every single Sunday morning with the same old rubbish. But to be honest this does bring some good will, the smile on my grandads face when the Christians see his Cricket bat is beautiful.

    It is not fair to enforce ones religion on another.

    In england we have a word which you may have heard before. The word is bollocks. This word is pretty neat in the way in which it sums up the rest of your argument against the Christian faith to a T. The Isralies and Palistinians have been fighting lately because after the second world war the Isralites were all pushed into Palastinian territory. (I think that is what happened anyway) Saying the trouble in the middle east is all to do with the Jews and the Muslims is like saying the German reformation was simply just about religion. It wasn't.

    Now i understand that you desperatley want to make an impression and join in in discussions, however it would be advisable to pass at least a kindergarten level spelling, history and Religion test first.

    There are other point s which will be argued but I don't know enough to do it.

    Christianity is NOT out to convert everyone. There are Christians who interpret the Bible in some distorted way, and try to impose Biblical teachings on others, these people are doing what THEY think is right. I don't agree with that, I'm a Christian, I don't waltz around throwing the Bible at people to try to convert them. I agree that people who try to impose their religion on others need a little guidance, but I haven't seen anything related to this in...well...not in my lifetime.
    Religion is there to help people, people to use it to hurt others are doing something wrong. The Palestinian-Israeli war is still going on because a large number of people haven't realized that what they are doing is wrong, killing people on the basis of religion is ridiculous.

    PS-Being 16 years old is no excuse for bad spelling/grammar.

    Christains interpret the bible for exactly what it says. Cathloc and all the other similer religons dont take the bible so literly.

    Germany rain of terror was caused by Europe (Not all). The French made the German sign a treaty stating that Germany will pay off the war debt and they are not to have German troops set foot in the rhinesland or the French will invade you.


    Gemany went into a deep depression they payed 20 mark just for a loaf of bread. Than came the dictator Hitler, he had great Charisma and he promised that the German Race will be rise up once again. He even Wrote a nice little Book on hwat his pans are for the Country before he showed any Hostile intentions. When he wa Ready he sent his military tot he Rhineland. This was an act of Hostile Intention because he was breaking the Treaty and the Rhinesland Borders France

    I suggest you begin improving your spelling and grammar; it is the rule here, and your posting privileges will be removed if you don't.

    Catholics ARE Christians. Perhaps you are referring to Christians of the Born-Again variety.

    Whoops. Looks like it's already too late. Hey Tal :wave:

    [​IMG] Ok, that does it. Say bye. :toofar:

    P.S.
    Hey BTA, he's already over the line. Too late, too late...

    P.S. #2
    The chatroom voted in favour of giving him another chance. If he makes another post as bad as the last one in here was, we'll take his posting privileges away.

    Iceboy, please for love of all humanity tell me that little rant about Hitler had anything to do witht he German reformation. If so then you are 400 years ahead of yourself.

    Oh and I am sure that Cathlocs don't take the Bible seriously. In the same way that Hundi's like pop music and Bappist's always wear orange. However on the reference to all other religions i must assume you include Catholics, who are well known for sticking to the Bible's teachings.

    Ok since im going to get booted anyways. Ill say this Cathloc is not Christain. It is a form of Christainity. Cathlocs still believe in the basice princibles of God and Jesus but some beliefs about bible are different.

    OK i will when a country is in such terrible shape they want a leader to take them out of it again they will believe just about anybody who promises it. Hitler arginally wanted to be a painter too but he applied at the the best art colloge and they rejected him. If they would have accepted him The holocast could have never happened

    Not meaning to be a tit or anything but, isn't it Catholic instead of Cathloc? Just some friendly reminder and please don't think of me as one of those people over there.

    /me points to group of people who want him kicked

    [​IMG] I'm sure you all know what that means. :rolleyes:

    A little effort is all it would take, but no, he rather chose getting silenced. Remind me not to bother the next time.

    Iceboy, a little word of advice. When someone tells you ten times to spell something in the correct fashion it is good manners to do what they say! There is no Cathloc religion there is Catholics C A T H O L I C. Was God in a bad mood when he assigned you a brain?!

    And waht in Gods name has Hitler's picture postcard painting skills got to do with Religion!?
