Humanity is taught through lutheranism
You definitely haven't read the Bible if you don't think there's a certain I-word associated with "his chosen people."
If you do not understand that, it is your own problem .
I have talked to priests about this
They sure know a hell of a lot more than you do
ANyone who's watched Veggietales can tell you that Israel is God's Chosen People. It says that far more often than it refers to stoning.
I have grown up and lived in the bible belt. You speak as someone who doesn't really go to church very often, but likes to say they do.
That's a prerequirement for defending Christian authoritarianism
Seriously dude!
Either you ARE at the top, so you want it. Or you're the one who they want to rule.
YOu can't say that the Bible makes no claim to God having a chosen people when it's run through the entire Old Testament.
God has always favored some people over others for their actions.
There are verses clearly stating that God sees all people as equal
Either way, God's a dick, but so are other gods. He's just more deceptive. Odin is at least honest about his dickery, so I'm sticking with him.
No, there is one verse where Paul says that race and gender don't matter in the church. One.
Compared to the whole Old Testament where Israel is the chosen nation.
And also most of the New Testament.
They need to release the Old Old Testament
That would be the necronomicon, and has since been lost to time.
Time waits for no one
The Jews' claim to supremacy is the entire point of Paul's teachings on race and ethnicity.
He had to teach the church that Jews were not inherently better people.
It's almost funny how easy it is to debunk false religious claims using this awesome thing called internet
I used to have to open up a Bible
Living right now is like playing a mmorpg that has outgrown itself and never got past the tutorial level, or been allowed to
Here I come with the Bible.. and I am talking New Testament where it states how stuff is going to go down;
``1 Corinthians chapter 3.
**The Church and Its Leaders**
1 Brothers and sisters, I could not address you as people who live by the Spirit but as people who are still worldly—mere infants in Christ. 2 I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready for it. Indeed, you are still not ready. 3 You are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and quarreling among you, are you not worldly? Are you not acting like mere humans? 4 For when one says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,” are you not mere human beings? ``
With mainstream religions, it's even more funny that you debunk them with their own material :U
@ETBrooD What exactly have you debunked? Is your position that we SHOULD be partial?
What does a religious person do when their personal beliefs contradict their religion? Make up things about their religion, of course!
`` If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay or straw, 13 their work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each person’s work. 14 If what has been built survives, the builder will receive a reward. 15 If it is burned up, the builder will suffer loss but yet will be saved—even though only as one escaping through the flames. 16 Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in your midst? 17 If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy that person; for God’s temple is sacred, and you together are that temple. 18 Do not deceive yourselves. If any of you think you are wise by the standards of this age, you should become “fools” so that you may become wise. ``
The builder recieves the reward
And they try to teach people compassion for others because they say that God is just a spirit
Nah, they pick and choose things that their religion supports, and claim ignorance on the parts of that religion which opposes
Yeah
I wish I was making it up but that was what I was taught in school
Nice thing about it being so horribly written. The bible is its own worst enemy.
I was not taught the bullshit you just put in your heads allowing people from Islam to build schools and stuff on territory that is not their's
"you"
