Thank you for all the time you spent putting this information together. I will be looking up each link and researching the contents, which will most likely take some time as well. I will get back to you when I am done.


Look I appreciate that you are saying and claiming that you are going to look at these links and read these books, but frankly that is going to take you several months, maybe even years to really spend time with. So you aren't likely to get back to me anytime soon about it, and if you write back in a week that you've investigated this with the kind of attention it deserves then I must conclude that you really aren't going to weigh the material carefully.

I also found it really disappointing that you haven't acknowledged in any way the information I have presented you simply through discussion about the way christian's behave towards others.

While you appeared to apologize, the sentences you followed the apology with clearly demonstrated your behavior (which wasn't anything like being a true christian) is what, and how you normally respond to material that contradicts your belief system even while you claim it is your belief system and present yourself as a christian who is just absolutely filled with love, compassion, empathy, and understanding for everyone.

Why didn't you address that issue at all? Is it because you reserve the right for yourself to step away from your pretended christian beliefs, values, and morals when it suits your purpose to smash and crush anyone who disagrees with you?

Doesn't sound, or appear to be behavior that has truly embraced what are foisted upon us as the true teachings of the most glorious savior character ever in the world.

Well, the bible is a magnificent work and you have to take it in faith that it was written for instruction. I know, God has not been here lately but most importantly, when he sent his son to save us from our sins, he to left us with his spirit.

You get faith through suffering and all naysayers either have not been called yet or have refused to listen when He called, but each individual gets the opportunity to enter into relationship

I believe I was called when I was paralyzed at 15. A severe head injury destroyed all nerve connections on the right side of my body. While unconscious, I met the Lord.

Life is very difficult without a working system because medicine does not know how to help you and you have no idea either and they just leave you in that nerve-less body...but it was in 1975 that I was hurt and now almost 40 years later, I have figured it out..

So believe me, it was all his spirit who has given me strength over the years and today I want people to realize His goodness and encourage others to get to know Him better..

We haven’t heard a peep from this imaginary sky daddy ever. The only peeps people can point to happened some 2400 years ago for a period of a couple hundred years.

There are no eye-witnesses, though a few claim to have seen this crap with their own eyes. But there’ no proof or evidence of any of it. It is all hearsay. There were 4 editors who have rewritten, redacted and edited the myths stories that fill these books. Ever heard of them? :roll: :roll: :shock: :shock:


Scholarly examination which gives evidence of their individual influence has labeled them as the Elohist (E), the Priestly writer (P), the Deuteronomist (D), and the Yahwist (or Jahwist = German equivalent of English letter Y so Y or J).

So these folks PYED (the pied pipers) have altered the text, have altered the order of books, altered the order of events (thus making it appear that something was prophesied before it occurred, and made claims regarding who was the author responsible for the texts that were outright lies.

There are numerous shifts in tense (first person, to third person etc.) within the same story, which clearly indicate that several texts written by different authors are sewn together like they all were written by the same person about the same subject or were audited and edited before inclusion. Or, the editors found the actual text unsatisfying, didn’t make enough extraordinary claims about events and so wrote in a new version, forgetting they had changed the tense the author was writing in.

You folks who claim to know this material, who claim to have read it, well, you probably read it, but your minds filled in the blanks when you ran across all of these bumps and potholes in the road so that you could continue paying attention to an extraordinary story about something that didn’t happen, and yet allow the story (BS) could continue to unfold.

All of you continue to be so eager to believe, you don’t ever question the continuous stream of subtle and glaring errors that confront you. Your belief, and brain just continue to fill in the blanks so that you can maintain these beliefs.

You guys play this game over and over again dancing, dodging, and deflecting.

Why would such a caring imaginary friend want to make things hidden? This is nonsense of the highest caliber.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Robbie1 continues: For example, the bible says it is appointed unto to man to die once and after that the judgment. I may say that means we as men die (and then) then we are judged at the white throne (of) judgment.

Okay, it’s BS, but do women go to a different court where there is a different colored throne? Are people of different ethnicities, races, and different or who maintain no belief systems spoken to from a different colored throne in a different part of this imaginary afterlife world?

And why is a chair making these decisions?

Robbie1 stamps his foot: Not true. It means that when Adam sinned against god all men died. Even before they were born.

Ummmm, what about the women and children? Secondly there wasn’t anyone named Adam who sinned in this context. This is a fairy tale.

But let’s continue.

Do you know how insane and nutty that sounds? ROFLMAO.
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Throughout my life, and the lives of millions of others, do you have any idea how many even more nutty, (and some less), interpretations of that fairy tale story and that kind of thinking has been promulgated by preachers and believers?

There are now some 38,000 christian sects/cults each one interpreting all of this fairy tale’s books insanity and nonsense in different ways!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Each one claims it is the one true and only way to believe!!!

Why are there 38,000 different sects/cults if your sky daddy’s words are so clear and without contradiction, and obfuscation?

I’m sure your spin is going to be just adorable.

:oops: :oops::oops::oops: :roll:

Robbie1 claims: god's plan is seen to god as one plan as though it already happened.

Right, right, right and you know this because you’ve had conversations with this imaginary friend in your head all the time and this is what delusional belief will do to people. You’ll claim to know just about anything.

Robbie1 claims: god knows the beginning from the end. Everything happens with god all at once.

Right, right, right and you know this because you’ve had conversations with this imaginary friend in your head all the time and this is what delusional belief will do to people. You’ll claim to know just about anything.

Robbie1 continues: If god has to think of something then that would assume god doesn't know everything.

Which is just another circular defense so that you can continue to pretend this imaginary friend exists.

Robbie1 makes another attempt: Not true. He/she/its’ plan for mankind was over and done with before he/she/it said let there light.

Yet by your claim, if I do something different than I am doing now I can change what happens to me, yet it’s already been done, decided and known in advance so what’s the point of a religion that pretends to give you an out, pretends to foster the idea of free will, if everything has already been done and decided in advance?

That’s about as whackjob a way of thinking as can be. :oops: :roll: :lol:


This is snakeoil Robbie1, and that makes you a snakeoil salesman. Which basically means you are willingly perpetrating a fraud.

Pangu, here's something I'm sure of. You are not a very nice person. So, you don't believe in God. You have spent a great deal of time to prove your belief. I'm still working on answering your comments, but I do have a couple questions for you.

Can you prove 100% that we came from a big bang? And who was there to write down the details of how it happened, in sequence? You know, a witness? Yes, we have written words telling us how it all happened, in Genesis. And yes, the Bible states that all was inspired by God. God's Word even states that "Only the fool has said in his heart that there is no God." And I read all that you said to discount the truth of the Bible.

But now, I need to hear your argument for the other side. Again, share with us 100% proof of how this universe, earth, animals, and the intricate details in a human body came to be from a big explosion in space. And, why or how did we get such a variety of human form? Where did the bang come from?

Please. While I research your statements and links, perhaps you can tell me what you believe and why? Tell me what YOU believe. I need to hear the other side too, you know. :)

And again, we can discuss all of this without being insulting. You really have not been a nice person. Apparently this subject really gets to you. So, let's just leave out the attitude, and discuss it thoughtfully. Robby1 made statements according to his faith and knowledge of scripture. He and I have faith. You do not. So can't we agree that we disagree without putting down the other? :D

Thank you. Now on to my studies. Have a good evening! :)

“Robbie1 Fails again”
Your words not mine. And no, as far as I can tell, you have not shaken his faith one iota, nor should you be able to.

Trolls come on here all the time. And all you fools do, is the same thing.

Yap, yap, yap, yap. Bla, Bla, bla, bla.
Your right, and everyone else is wrong. You are so boring. Try a different subject or get the hell out of here. Ever heard of an educated idiot.
Well there you are, fitting right into that pidgin hole again. Don’t you ever get tired of hearing your self talk?

Are you so self centered, you don’t know when people are laughing there self silly over your would be pronouncements of, your more knowledgeable than over 2/3 rds of the worlds population. Come on fool,
wake up. Your even starting to embarrassing me.
Do you even realize your saying you know more than God. And lets be real here shall we. You can no more prove he isn’t, than he is. For all of your so called research, ( by the way, looks like well over 95 % is cut and paste ) you haven’t proved anything. And it is also very clear you know it as well. Otherwise you wouldn’t try so hard to swing people over to your way of thinking. Your predilection for insanity runs deep in you. You really need to go back to the home, before you hurt your self.

Do you love your child enough to let him/her continually play out in the street?
Do you love your wife enough to let anyone who wants her to have sex with her?

You argument concerning christian love is not viable , nor is it answerable because you are not using logical statements.

Anyone can ask how many angels will fit on the head of a pin, but no one on earth can answer that question. All questions are worthwhile, ALL. However, answers are fickle because they can be believed or unbelieved. It depends on the direction the asker is leaning.

What existed before existence? Where does guilt come from? Don't give me the definition of guilt where did the feeling or emotion of guilt come from.

If in the end of everything, how can one say there is nothing, when in the beginning, everything came from nothing?

You don't have to be so rude. If you are defending absolute truth and knowledge, there is no need to try to insult or intimidate people.

The bible is not an instruction book.[1]

The bible is not an inspiration guide.[2]

The bible is not a textbook for morality or life.[3]

It is a collection of at least 66 separate works, written over centuries of time, that contain narratives about people's perceptions in which they believed there was/is a god as a means to try to answer things about life, this world and universe for which they had no other ability to comprehend or measure. Experience, knowledge, morality, social inclusion v exclusion are all ideas and knowledge and wisdom obtained by others throughout history without claiming an imaginary lord and master.

However, people do try to use it as all those things, and the confusion begins when they fail to consider each individual author's purpose (including those of the 4 editors who fashioned and tweaked it further). If I tried to use The Great Gatsby, Huckleberry Finn, or the Iliad as an infallible collection of directives, I'd run into trouble fast, just as all you folks are by using this book. These are simply cognitive mechanisms that offer an optimal compromise between interesting things and expected things.

People do something similar when they think of the bible like a textbook.

To interpret something properly, you need to understand the context, the author's intention, and know something about the audience the author was writing to.

When people think of themselves as the audience, or god as the author, ignore the context, or misunderstand why the author is saying what he does, there's bound to be problems with things making sense.

[1] A number of the books are laws that were devised to govern a nation of (or tribes of) people but aren't often really considered directly applicable today, and they're valued by some as insight into principles. Principles that can be found in writings throughout time with no one claiming they were from an imaginary friend. But there are a slew of other books throughout history that had nothing to do with religion, even novels that have done the same thing for people. People felt good because of how, what they read made them feel, which is an emotional experience, but isn’t a god. One can also experience a knowing about truth when they discover it within themselves, but that isn’t a god.

[2] A reader might find parts that are inspirational.

[3] As with any literature, there's often a "moral to the story" and parts of the text include moral principles and practical advice.

People hallucinate and dream of all manner of things, especially those things given supernatural powers by the societies around them, and especially when suffering from neurological trauma. It doesn’t mean you met any lord or imaginary friend.

You don’t get faith through suffering, you get hope that the suffering will end, once it does end attributing its end to faith is a non-starter. It isn’t real, but it is what you may want to believe.

Faith is the SUBSTANCE of things hoped for, the EVIDENCE of things hoped for.

Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God.

Rom 5:8 Says," While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

All or most have gone through the doubts you express. And all or almost all have been taken to a point of brokenness. God is not willing that anyone should perish but that all would come to repentance.

God in His infinite mercy knows how, when, where, what, and why to touch you or something or someone who is very precious to you. This is not done out of anger because it is the kindness of God that leads men to repentance. God does not want you to lose your soul in hell; everyone is going to live forever somewhere, why not make it heaven?

You are one of God rebel sheep right now but one day you may be one of His best sheep. God has two hounds found in Ps. 23; One hound is goodness, the other is mercy. And they are going to relentlessly pursue you all the days of your life. Why don't you lay down your anger, hurt, and emptiness and be released from your blindness.

Yet by your claim, if I do something different than I am doing now I can change what happens to me, yet it’s already been done, decided and known in advance so what’s the point of a religion that pretends to give you an out, pretends to foster the idea of free will, if everything has already been done and decided in advance?

That’s about as whackjob a way of thinking as can be. :oops: :roll: :lol:


This is snakeoil Robbie1, and that makes you a snakeoil salesman. Which basically means you are willingly perpetrating a fraud.
You have to be saved before the Holy Spirit shows you the mysteries of God. I guess you know where you stand. Or not.

Dog in his/her/its infinite mercy knows how, when, where, what, and why to touch you or something or someone who is very precious to you.

Armageddun sez: Faith is the SUBSTANCE of things hoped for, the EVIDENCE of things hoped for.

Ahh, but you don’t see that you have it backwards. Substance is what is hoped for. Faith isn’t that, faith is the determined belief that something will happen. It isn’t a guarantee, ergo it isn’t substance.
Something you want but don’t have and hope to get, is having hope. Believing that you will get that thing you HOPE for is called faith. There is no substance in that. It is only the belief that you will get what you hope for. The thing you hope for is substantive. You really should spend more time really thinking things like this through before you go ahead and make assertions that are flawed. Nor is the determination in the belief that you will get what you hope for in any way evidence. Desire and intent aren’t evidence of anything. Fingerprints on a weapon used in a shooting are evidence, but pretending that you know that you will get something, because you want it and hope for it are not evidence of any kind. Go look up the damned words evidence and substance and faith and hope. All of you engage in such wordgames, none of which are clever BTW.


Armageddun sez: faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of god.

More BS. More circular thinking. Repeating such words does not make a statement like that true in any way. It is an empty claim. There is no word of god, there is only the words of men pretending to speak of and for, and on behalf of an imaginary friend.

Armageddun says citing a buybull verse," While we were yet sinners, krystos died for us.

There isn’t anybody named krystos save for claims of the new testacle. Paul was a nutcase, an epileptic who had seizures and hallucinated that he had conversations with some imaginary savior.

The others didn’t begin writing about this myth until 70 CE, and did so based on oral traditions about events told and retold in Rome, not in Judea or Galilee, that likely didn’t happen at all. Why? There is no historical record of this savior. Why?

Prove this figment of your imagination exists. Can't? Why? Hasn't seen fit to visit humans in over 2000 years? Why?

Armageddun sez: All or most have gone through the doubts you express.

Primarily, I don't have any doubts. Everything I have posted is with certainty.

So back to the other part of your claim. No, that’s not true either. Not everyone is born into a situation in which they are indoctrinated into delusional nonsense. So your claims of all or most just doesn’t fly. There are about 4 billion people at present on this planet who are counted by their religious leaders as being believers. Many pretend to be believers because of the societal and familial pressures exerted on them to be believers. Not fear that they will be punished after they die, fear that they will be mistreated by the believers who claim to be loving people.

Fewer people are going to church or other places of delusional worship these days. The number of people calling this nonsense out for the fairy tale stuff it is and leaving religion in the dust is growing. Why?

Armageddun: And all or almost all have been taken to a point of brokenness.

BS. BS. BS. BS.

Armageddun claims: god is not willing that anyone should perish but that all would come to repentance.

More BS, since there is no god, and no need to repent. It is all a fabrication using fear. What a great scam. Why willingly be a part of a scam? Fear? Grow up.

Armageddun: god in his infinite mercy knows how, when, where, what, and why to touch you or something or someone who is very precious to you. This is not done out of anger because it is the kindness of god that leads men to repentance.

BS. There is no dog or imaginary friend.

And Only men? You are the typical christian misogynist.

There is no god of your understanding. There is your belief that this imaginary friend and sky daddy exists, but no proof. Why?

Funny how no one from nearly 2 millennia ago forward has seen or heard from this nonexistent delusion. Why? It used to be (as claimed by some really ignorant and superstitious people) that this imaginary friend made appearances fairly regularly riding in on clouds in the sky for example, speaking from burning bushes and the like. What a load of horse puckey.

Armageddun: god does not want you to lose your soul in hell; everyone is going to live forever somewhere, why not make it heaven?

BS. If there actually was a sky daddy you wouldn't know what it would want. I’ve heard this delusional song and dance before. You aren’t any better at it or any more convincing than anybody else.

Again, as I have informed others. You folks are making extraordinary claims for which not a single one of you has any evidence, let alone extraordinary evidence. Why?

By indulging in this belief system, or ideology, and its attendant dogmas you willingly shut off your brains and make yourself willing to sacrifice truth. Why? Fear? Societal pressures?

Armageddun: Why don't you lay down your anger, hurt, and emptiness and be released from your blindness.

Why don’t you baa a couple more times before you are shorn for the wool? You look funny running around on all 4’s pretending to be an animal. Why don’t you shed yourself of your delusions?
