God

Surprisingly, I only meet a small people like that around my area. And most of the Jehovah's Witnesses just stand around 69th Street Terminal holding their little newsletters. But I guess it might be different in some other parts of the country.

And he did away with Limbo? How the hell did I sleep through that?

Btw... for those wondering, I am a Roman Catholic under the Society of Pope Pius X.

But yeah, I've lived East Coast, West Coast, Mid-West, been in the military, watched the news and TV, and I've seen a lot of it. And it just annoys me. Which is probably why I've fallen away from organized religion. (That and the nice traditional Roman Catholic church I belonged to going all weird and touchy feely hippie on me after the older pastor who was the embodiment of everything I thought the religion should be left to make way for some other younger priest whose preachings and general personality ran along the lines of the religious peeves that I have.) I mean, if everyone is saying that the other is going to hell because they don't share their beliefs, then is everyone going to hell?

Also, keep in mind that Genesis is just a story created during the Babylonian captivity to keep the followers of God in line even during the hardships. There never was a garden of eden or even Noah's Ark. In fact, I think Noah's Ark was written as a way to cancel out the negatives in the Creation Story. Albeit he killed thousands of people in the process so I don't think it holds much credibility, but just a personal opinion.

The bible is the true word of God except, of course, for all the times it isn't? What a weird belief system you must have.

Think about it? Did we really start off like that? I'm a Christian but that does not mean I don't believe in evolution. And what about the other people? If everyone is descended from Adam and Eve, when Cain was exiled, where did the people he met up with come from? That's the problem with the bible, much of it does not make sense.

And yet you still believe in it. Astounding.

Yeah, that was part of the version the voices told me. Their version supported evolution, mythical creatures, polytheism, where the other people came from. Yeah. They can be entertaining and thought provoking. *^_^*

from what i can tell those are very few and far between....

the local walmart carries a christian section in the DVD area, it has such titles as "Animals that defy Evoloution" and how many times have i heard on the news about parents getting mad that evolution is being taught in the schools... that "all theories should be included, including creation-ism" or that there should be "huge warnings at the beginning of science books that say "this is only a theory" " O.o

The scary thing is... some of what I said (like the first books being written to keep exiled Jews in line) was written IN my high school Theology book and said to us by my theology teacher. Out of everything I can think of, it makes the most sense.
