Jesus was the Houdini of ancient times... probably faked his own death as a joke or something.

There was a discussion actually earlier in this thread I believe on the topic of Moses not being able to fake the things that happened. I believe that if Moses is the real deal, by association, Jesus is the real deal also. I cannot prove that Jesus didn't fake his own death as a joke, but I can point out that the statement will likely piss off quite a few believers.

More entertaining too. The bible must have been low budget.

Nice rebuke Strider. The only problem is that you didn't actually answer the question. You simply threw a half-witted insult. How about getting your shit straight and answering the question.

no, you stop your half-witted insults and get your shit straighten out. dont get pissed at me over the Internet and then expect me to put up with your bullshit.

Medieval Bob 2003-02-11 05:07 PM

You still have yet to answer a question. I have insulted nothing but your intelligence which insulted istelf when you stated that MIB makes more sense than the bible. I haven't put forth any bullshit, nor do I expect you to put up with any of it.

I have, however, put forth a question which you have yet to answer.

Strider Fury 2003-02-11 05:16 PM

you lost your chance to discuss it like two civilized human beings right about when you threw that childlish insult at me, prior to even allowing me the opportunity to explain myself. live with it. like I've said, I will not take bullshit from anyone with such a magnitude of ignorance.

Rofl. Do you even know what ignorance means?

"prior to even allowing me the opportunity to explain myself."
I've given you several opportunites to explain yourself. Actually, I've even asked you to explain yourself.

Strider Fury 2003-02-11 08:41 PM

whatever.

if I am, in fact, such an idiot, then I guess that my explaination will not be worth hearing anyways.

Medieval Bob 2003-02-11 09:24 PM

It would be better than no explination at all. I think you're stalling.

Strider Fury 2003-02-11 09:43 PM

*stalls.

Medieval Bob 2003-02-11 09:46 PM

I'm not going to banter with you anymore. You obviously made an irrational statement. You were overstating something, but when called on the fact, you stood with it. You cannot back up your statement. End of story.

Strider Fury 2003-02-11 10:07 PM

it ended when you made that childlishly remark over a serious matter of discussion. I simply decided that I wasn't even going to brother to waste my time on a person who is so thick-headed about a perticular subject that he wouldnt even look the other way, especially before I've even provided sufficent evidence to back up what I've stated.

Medieval Bob 2003-02-12 06:02 AM

Then there was no conversation at all. If, however, you ever had anything intelligent to say about this topic, you would say it. The fact that you so blatently avoided answering the question

In your fit to discredit religion, faith, and the Bible, you made a stupid remark which has no truth behind it, nor can you fake any truth behind it, which says to me that you are a stupid, immature, little boy. Go watch Barney with Grav, little boy.

Demosthenes 2003-02-12 03:53 PM

strider i would like to here an explanation also.

From what i interpret i think all stryder was saying was an expression that the bible has no HARD evidence backing it...it's strictly a matter of faith. MIB also offers no hard evidence, and if someone chose to believe in it, it would be up to them.

Thats just the way I interpret it though and im probably wrong so that's why i would like to here stryder's side of the argument.

Grav 2003-02-12 04:10 PM

I don't literally watch Barney.

Note: There is no god.

Silverjinx18 2003-02-12 10:21 PM

omg...strider are you really hellmonkey???i mean really...whine whine whine,bitch bitch bitch, evidence evidence evidence...this is why I slowed down my replying to this thread unless it was to someone who really wanted to take the time and know something...stop your bitching and give the Bible a chance...read the last book of the Bible and look at the world today...anyone know how many times i've said that???i've lost count...so...idunno...stop acting like a baby and go do something usefull...

Wow, Wetwired. I thought you were just a little smarter than the average person. Can you honestly believe that there is a god? There is no resolve for people such as yourself. It will be a constant rebuttal of religious propaganda.

Jamesadin 2003-02-13 03:14 PM

Wetwired is intellegent to realize that there is a god and believe that the world is not revolving around them only.
You critisize others for their belifs, that shows the level of arrogance and stupidity on your part.

If you are going to believe that there is no god, thats fine. But just don't be a fool about it.

*head re-forms and then explodes again*

You do realize what you're saying right? GOD. An ALL-POWERFUL BEING. What a crock of shit. It's just a scheme plotted by old governments that couldn't control their own public. "Be bad, suffer for eternity."

If you're too afraid, or ignorant, to accept that fact that things happen that we can't explain yet, but will most likely be able to in the future, that's your own problem. Not mine.

Jamesadin 2003-02-14 07:01 AM

I'll make a note of it, somewhere.

i do suppose you have as much proof for that that you do God doesnt exist. You see, its hard to try to make us look stupid by telling us theres no God, when in fact, theres atleast as much proof God exists as there is he doesnt.

Demosthenes 2003-02-15 05:17 PM

I agree with you completely...there is no more proof that god doesn't exist as there is proving that he does. That said though, there is no proof that the MIB do not exist. For me to say that something is real you have to prove it. Let's say, for example, when a child sais that there is a monster under the bed. Would your child be lying to you on purpose?...is there any proof that there isn't an invisible monster under the bed?? But we all know that there isn't any such monster under the bed.

Uh you do realize that you just proved my own point right?

Medieval Bob 2003-02-15 10:25 PM

If you had been paying attention, mjord is one of the non-believers.

khwiii 2003-02-17 12:11 PM

Quote seen somewhere

To believe in God or in a guiding force because someone tells you to is the height of stupidity. We are given senses to receive our information within. With our own eyes we see, and with our own skin we feel. With our intelligence, it is intended that we understand. But each person must puzzle it out for himself or herself.

Pyro 2003-02-17 02:53 PM

And now I must quote Weird Al... "I'll be laughing my head off when you're burning in hell"

Believe. Don't believe. Who cares. I believe, but what you believe will only affect you in the end. Until then, let us believe what we want, and don't try to "prove you're point". Those who believe have reasons, just as those that don't, I'm sure.

Prove my point? My poinit is, it's everyone's own place to decide what they want to believe. YOU now push the believing point of view telling someone "they will burn inn hell" The fact is, You have based your belief on what a group of guys said 2000 + years ago. I guess with that mentality, what's wrong with Mormon beliefs? Or for that matter the beliefs of the Hebrew nation? The fact is for your "not caring" you have judged me, which YOUR god told you not to do. Read the quote over again. Decide for yourself if i was "pushing my view". AND if I really was, do tell me exactly what my view is. YOU can't, not from the quote i placed there. I CAN based on your qutoe. So thanks.. But try again.

Grav 2003-02-17 05:31 PM

Yes, yes, believe in hell. Good. I hope you go to it.

When he said "it will only affect you in the end", i think he was saying that our beliefs now will have any affect on us after life.

My biology teacher tells me that the brain is in my head, by your logic, i shouldnt believe that until, oh say, ive cracked my head open and seen it for myself?

You'd think that if there were a God, this all-seeing, all-knowing whatever, he'd speak to everyone and not just to people he knows are just going to end up getting crucified, impaled, or burned... seems like a waste. I don't believe in God and I'm only a Christian when it's "convenient."

Jesus did go around and let everyone he could know of his presence. Those who chose not to believe him condemned themselves.

Also, on the "today" end of the spectrum, I've heard a theory that I like. God doesn't speak to people today as he did back in "Biblical times." At least, we don't think he does. According to theory, this is because today there are so many adamant non-believers, that either God simply chooses not to say anything, or he knows that if he were to do anything short of uh.. say.. blowing up the sun and most of the planets in our SS, people still wouldn't believe it was an act of God. Or, God may be talking to people.

If this were true, it can be easilly explained that none of us know about it. Those who refuse to talk about it are numerous. Either they choose to keep it to themselves as something personal (a good example of this would be this thread. many people bash others for their beliefs) or they might disregard it as a strange occurance or a hallucination. Those who speak out... would, in today's society, generally be considered insane.

It's a sad world we live in today.

It's their lives, they choose what to do with them.
