If the world could only have one religion exist, which one you want it be?
@iron_tiger: this guy just said knowing why and for what is irrelevant.
pls go away.
read why god said those things.
@arthur_morgan: That's three times I proved your "God" was evil and you've got nothing to counter with, so you act like you beat me in something...
@iron_tiger: i didnt have to beat anything nor counter anything.
you simply qouted something without context or reason why it was said or done.
Its clear you have no idea what being actualy evil means.
I mean you have the devil in the same book but say god is evil lol.
dont respond pls.
@arthur_morgan: I'll take that as you conceding. Good game.
Not sure, but one that could at least be challenged over time on the good and bad or right and wrong, have some inspiration of creativity derived from it whether knowingly or unknowingly, and make things less boring.
I have no religion because man made establishment is bullshit. Only Jesus Christ is the truth. Morals and philosophy mean less than shit to me if it is not directly quoting the Bible.
I don't mind what the rest of the world should believe in or not, but when it comes to the Germanic region:
Heathenry, the all-father Wodan/Odin should return to our hearts and passion.
A) The Isaiah passage was referring to God punishing those who rebelled against him and rewarding those who obeyed His will. Disaster and evil are not the same thing.
B) The Midianites were a culture that practiced cult prostitution, infant sacrifice, and even bestiality. Like the other Caananites, God spared them for centuries and they continued in their evil ways, so God finally issued judgement and had Israel wipe them out. He knows everything, including the future, so we can logically conclude that all of the non-combatant Midianites who were killed would have grown up to continue in the despicable past times of their ancestors, and would have also dragged down the Israelites into apostasy(which is exactly what happened every time the Israelites disobeyed). The Old Testament is replete with instances of God sparing Caananites who chose to abandon their evil ways and repent, because God is just. Indeed, he was willing to spare the entirety of Sodom if there were but a few righteous men within.
OT: Assuming that the world would actually adhere to the true commandments of the religion, Christianity in a landslide.
Still, no religion is better for everyone.
Truth. Religion is used as a reason to do bad things, or as a curtain to hide those bad things. It's time for the world to grow up & put away all of the imaginary friends.
@benjamin_poindexter: It's not like every Religious people are evil feinds lol.
Then gay is a sin?
@benjamin_poindexter: You've chosen a good name.
@bbironman: Says so in the Bible.

So, slavery would be legal?
And we'd outlaw things as simple and benign as getting tattoos and eating shellfish?
And we'd have the death penalty for "crimes" such as adultery, homosexuality, and disrespecting your parents?
And wives wouldn't legally be allowed to talk back to their husbands. (Okay, maybe we can keep this one, JK)
Point is, we really shouldn't adhere too closely to the "true commandments" of the Bible, or any Holy book for that matter.
Religion has historically been one of the greatest driving forces of war, violence and hatred in general.
I'd be happy to see a world without it.
@iron_tiger: thank you for proving my point about taking things out of context.
you cant simply sort out things and say “look here“.
how can you say god is evil when god encourages you to be good?
God created those things to test you.
he gave you free will to be evil or good , its up to you but god would prefer humans to be good for obviouse reason.
now i see were you come from.
have a nice day , seems pointless talking to you.
The Bible is the word of God, right? The absolute word and will of God?
Well, it seems he tells you to do somethings that are... not so good.
“Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord.” (Ephesians 5:22) advocating the oppression of women

"You may purchase male or female slaves from among the foreigners who live among you. You may also purchase the children of such resident foreigners, including those who have been born in your land.

"If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and that, when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them: Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place; And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard. And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die." (Deuteronomy 21:18-21) advocating for the execution of disobedient children
"Whosoever ... hath any blemish, let him not approach to offer the bread of his God. For whatsoever man he be that hath a blemish, he shall not approach: a blind man, or a lame, or he that hath a flat nose, or any thing superfluous, Or a man that is brokenfooted, or brokenhanded, Or crookback, or a dwarf, or that hath a blemish in his eye, or be scurvy, or scabbed, or hath his stones broken ... He shall not go in unto the vail, nor come nigh unto the altar, because he hath a blemish; that he profane not my sanctuaries." (Leviticus 21:17-23 KJV) advocating for discrimination against the disabled
"When a man sells his daughter as a slave, she will not be freed at the end of six years as the men are. If she does not please the man who bought her, he may allow her to be bought back again." (Exodus 21: 7-8) advocating sex slavery
And when she had presented him the meat, he took hold of her, and said: Come lie with me, my sister. She answered him: Do not so, my brother, do not force me: for no such thing must be done in Israel. Do not thou this folly. [II Kings 13:8-12] But he would not hearken to her prayers, but being stronger overpowered her and lay with her. [II Kings 13:14] condoning incestuous rape
"Slaves, be subject to your masters with all reverence, not only to those who are good and equitable but also to those who are perverse." (1 Peter 2:18) more condoning of slavery, sex slavery and human trafficking
“And if a man beats his male or female servant with a rod, so that he dies under his hand, he shall surely be punished. Notwithstanding, if he remains alive a day or two, he shall not be punished; for he is his property." (Exodus 21:20-21) more condoning of slavery and beating slaves
"But if the thing is true, and evidences of virginity are not found for the young woman, then they shall bring out the young woman to the door of her father’s house, and the men of her city shall stone her to death with stones, because she has done a disgraceful thing in Israel, to play the harlot in her father’s house. So you shall put away the evil from among you." (Deuteronomy 22: 20-21) advocating for the execution of women who have pre-marital sex
"For everyone who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death. He has cursed his father or his mother. His blood shall be upon him." (Leviticus 20:19) more advocating for the execution of disobedient children
Is that enough examples for you? Or is God and the Bible still great?
Breathtaking with Keanu Reeves as its central figure?
This ^
@wolverinebatmanftw: Beware, he may tell you you're taking that all out of context because he doesn't know how to counter them. I mean, just look at my posts with his replies... that's all he did.
@vengefulshot: Couldn't have said it any better.
Daveism
The entire universe was actually created about 2 weeks ago by my buddy Dave.
He did not want people to freak out so he put everything in our minds in there so we don’t worry about it.
He wants people to have many options so he created all the fake religions so people can do what they want.
Dave is pretty forgetful though so sometimes there are conflicts in people’s memories.
Sometimes he changes his mind and goes back and changes something so we have the Mandela effect.
Dave does not really care if we worship him or not, he just did it all so he could have something to watch. That is why he does not take credit for it. He only told me because he is my buddy, and he made me that way.
All hail Dave.
@firestarlord73194: How do you even know which is really jesus taught which is made by stupid human?

How can I join Daveism? Is there a membership fee? Some kind of referral, or appointment? Is there a physical Church of Dave?
@bbironman: his words and teachings are written down in the Bible, following that is a good place to start
Dave is not really into all that, he does not have that kind of ego where if people do not worship him the are tortured for eternity or anything.
Dave is a peaceful guy, he knows what he did and that is all he needs, if people want to say thanks or something that is cool but just live your lives people.
All Dave wants is for people to do what they want, pick whatever religion you want, Dave made them so diverse so that everyone can find the one that fits them best. Whatever you want for the afterlife is fine with him, he will hook you up with what you need.
D is for the deity that he is for us
A is for all, to which he gives
V is because it looks like the peace sign
E is for everyone, because he accepts us
Deities for All, “V” peace Everyone, Dave man.
Dave sounds like he'd be a really cool roommate.
Also, is Keanu Reeves to Dave what Jesus is to the all-powerful-dickhead known as the Christian God?
Gay is sin and rapist are allowed count as well?
