Thoughts of an Antidisestablishmentarianist
What I think is what I think. I can't make you think anything different from your thoughts, and you can't make me think any diffrent.
Religion part II
Papal Infalability? Where the hell did that come from? How the hell does one man, elected by a group of other men, suddenly become "all knowing and always right"?
Last time I checked, the pope is still a man, let me see... yep, every pope to date has died sooner or later. I give Benidict... four years. At best, and ya know what? I still say that "papal infalability" is a load of freshly made crap. I'm pretty sure that all men are falabile. So, how does getting a big hat, nice staff, fancy robes, cool title, and "god's power on earth" make you infalabile? And how do you get god's power on earth, anyway. I believe that god is omnipresent, right? So why would he need to give some human, a created being, his power? I don't get it. And don't get me started on the Baptists. The only religion they show is when the say grace for the food that they eat. Non-denominatinal churchs are the only ones that make sense. They have relationships with god, not religons.

Thanks for listening to my rants.

Aye, Agreed. To actually have a relationship with the god you worship is much better than being taught what is and is not His love. Besides, the churches haven't been all clean themselves. Come on... just look at the history behind the Catholic church. The Crusades, all the persecutions, hell, they even SOLD TICKETS to guarantee people's path to heaven during the Renaissance. Then again, it would have been hard to colonize the Americas without their land-conquering and fort building in the pre-colonial periods. But whatever... Which religion is the 'right' one anyway? The bible states that the Muslims are the chosen people, or rather were until they turned their back on him. Who's to say one God is better than another's? The only true proof of God is through Jesus. He fulfilled all 299 prophecies before his final one... to die and come back to life. He completed the 300 prophecies of the true Son of God, which were written CENTURIES before Jesus was born. I believe in God and Jesus. I do believe there's 1 God; who he is, we won't truly know until we see him face-to-face. Then we will understand, and we will know, and we will love and appreciate. I've ranted enough on your rant. I could go on for a while though XD
