question to the faithful

[FrenchInhale]

juggalo its hard to explain the idea of why God allows people to suffer. Think of free will like this:

Free Will = You moving out of your parents house and having to fend for yourself. You make choices yourself and you have concequences for those choices good or bad, and your choices can effect OTHER people. So, the children who are dying and starving and stuff. No it isn't their fault, its their parents fault, or there parents parents fault... somewhere down the line its someone in their families fault. There choices effected their grandchildren. So, God is not going to just come rescue someone. We are on our own... we aren't going to get help from God, because we are on our own on earth. However, christians feel you still have to believe in God and worship him, because what would be better... having a crappy life or not having a life? Everyone on earth should be greatful... they are all alive.. which is a blessing. Again, just my take.

Angels fighting aimlessly.
Still Dying by the Sword.
Our Legions K_lling all in Sight.
To get to the on called Lord.

I hate Religion.
All those people dressed in their nice sunday suites.

Familar with Deterministic philosophy? How about Compatibilism?

[Delta9]

Yea I know determinism, fate, yata yata yata.

compatibilism. No i have not heard of compatibilism.

But I have met a few priests and The Christianity is sold out.
I'm sorry but the church just wants money. They have charoties but the money never goes to the people that really need it. It goes straight into University Officials pockets.
Not only that people that work for the Catholic church also tend to be police officers and firemen. They sorta' take over our government. I mean look at george Bush He's alsways talking about his faith. Or IL Senator Obama Said he likes to mix his spirituallity in with politics. There is a Definite separation between Church and state that is slowly diminishing. We do not need a bunch of 80 year old Catholic Cleargy members running this fucking country expecting a bunch of young kids to getting down on their knees and kissing their hands. I go to A Catholic School and All those people to see ranting and raving about abortion and gay sex and drug use are all Up tight, Anal, Faggots from Catholic Church.

I think I wrote I support George Bush. And I do. Hes The President. But The Christian concept of proper living in society is not entirely correct. Not only that Christians are never open to other peoples view because they see the Bible as the right way. Look what Christians did to the Native Americans. They tried To Dress them up like School boys and Teach them to read. Come on they were the fucking first generation Nomadmadic warriors that the colonists met. Do you really think that they would accept the Doctrine of the Church.

Delta - Why do you automatically associate christianity with sunday best and suits, or priests. People show their faith in lots of different ways. You seem to be tarring all christians with the same brush.

[Delta9]

I guess I was not really trying to refer to Christians as Individuals. So Yea I think I have made a incorrect generalization. It's Just the Government of the Church is not something I would want to be apart of. What I am reffering to is some of the doctrine that Christianity teaches. Most people go to Curch and Donate their money to the Church, but, Do they really know what their donating to. The Bible lays out a strict structure of rules and regulations that Christians are supposed to abide by. And I don't think that your average Marijuana smoker would be too happy living under the rule of the Pope. I go to a Catholic School run by an Abbot and The University/Church officials are extremely republican and have extremely tight security. Do you want cameras watching your every move - being constaintly monitored. You know "Big brother is watching" we'll thats the kind of stuff that these strict Catholic officials believe in and that is the prosecution of all drug users to the maximum extent of the law and the persecution of homosexuals and the abolishment of abortion.

If you had to take orders from some old jack-off priest like I have too, then you would probably worship satan as well.
