He doesn't and that's what makes it wrong. I'm not going to tell you it isn't wrong, but I am telling you that judgment awaits that priest. Just as it awaits me and you.Cliff_m85 said:
Salvation is kind of like this...
A kid with no money and his friend are at a circus and want to ride a ferris wheel. They get in line and then then the owner asks for the kid's money. But the kid's friend says, "Don't worry, dad, he's with me." The owner lets them ride.
Christ is like that kid's friend in a way. You need to have a personal relationship with him in order to get into heaven, or the ferris wheel in my metaphor. That's all there is to Christianity. Of course, there are certain things you have to do to be friends with this kid, just like any relationship, but that's it.
Isn't that a bit short-sighted of the great one?darthzew said:
Surly it should know that not everyone will know of it's existence and if it loved all of it's creations, it would not punish them for not knowing or indeed reward those who do know.
The owner of a nightclub doesn't keep people out of that nightclub because he doesn't know them.
If the nightclub is even there in the first place, that is.
And by the way, I did mean "God's world".
This world which God is said to have made, it doesn't match up with what the Bible says.
Wouldn't that be extremely exclusive, considering how few people of the whole world population actually are Christian?darthzew said:
As an atheist, I don't really care, but I always figured that - because of this issue - most religious people would accept that good folks go into heaven/paradise/nirvana/whatever, no matter their specific faith. After all, your faith is mostly the result of your upbringing. It's rarely a choice (few people actually convert, at least compared to the number of people who simply grow up with their parents' faith system and keep it).

Combine the two...dagens24 said:
Or better yet.. Call the experts themselves...
Have every dude you know dress in a Borat thong and prance aound them like a bunch of ferries, telling them how much you love them.

Throwing rocks is good too.

Well if you just wanna piss them off, you can get a big sign that says "West Borough Likes Cock in Thier Mouths"

I grew up a missionary's kid living overseas. And I've seen thousands of people convert at a time. The Bible states that we have a duty to bring the gospel to all the world, this is called the Great Commission.Skeleon said:
Christians don't believe that good works get you into heaven; it's your relationship with Christ.
I'm not sure I entirely understand your point, but I'll try...Booze Zombie said:
It's written in the Bible that Christians must follow what is known as the Great Commission, or that we should bring the gospel to all the nations. This is our responsibility, therefore, all of those who aren't reached is also our responsibility.
And God's world... Yes it does?
Westbro Baptist Church... oh yeah the hypocrite society of morons.
I'd say they're pretty much the offline version of trolls, and the best thing to do is to ignore them. Although admittedly that's probably not as fun as say chasing them off with a flamethrower.

Let me just say, any Christian who comes up to your face and says, "You're going to hell!" should sit down and actually start reading the Bible, cause they ain't reading the same thing I do. I swear, it's people like this who create a terrible stereotype, and it's the rest of us who will never live it down.
I was going to sugest Firebombs or tear gas.....now that I think about it if Jack Thompson started a church it would be the Westboro Baptist Church.
A man is sitting at a table. There is a tranq gun right next to him. Across the room is a child coloring in a coloring book. Another man enters the room and starts coloring with him. After 20 minutes the man looks around and violently grabs the child, removing his pants and underpants. As a moral man, I can assume that you would pick up the tranq gun and save the child. However the man sitting at the table doesn't. He just watches as the sexual abuse takes place, he watches and does nothing. What would you think of such a person?darthzew said:
That person is your god.
And suddenly the holes in Christianity become crystal clear.darthzew said:
First of all isn't God's love supposed to unconditional? Believing and worshipping him and having a "relationship" with him sound like conditions to me. Him or Jesus whatever, aren't they one and the same? Father, Son, Holy Spirit, whatever... I don't care.
And why does he punish us for not meeting those conditions? Must be tough love eh?
After them being in my city (San Diego) for two weeks I can say the best thing is to ignore them. The reason is because if they are not getting attention they will leave sooner.
Edit: Also can someone explain why on of their signs said "You will eat your babies." I am not joking when I say that they were holding that sign when protesting in San Diego.
