You don’t need to justify your faith.
Yes you do
It’s faith.
Fair Enough im still iffy about God Question myself
@Scale_e that's the entire reason I do so. Their faith does tend to screw with me. I rarely bring it up unless someone else does.
>“Jesus was heading his way, and Zacchaeus wanted to see what he was like. But Zacchaeus was a short man and could not see over the crowd. So he ran ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree.”
GG, Jesus was average to below average in height
That’s the whole point. You can’t prove it. You aren’t supposed to prove it. It’s *faith*.
Just, like, live and let live man
So if you have faith in communism it’s justified?
Except for the immigrants.
@HitchSlapped! I just think his brother was better at getting his points out.
@Scale_e then why do they keep trying to prove it? XD
“I dont need to justify this thing but other people need to justify theirs”
Side note: I dislike "is god real" question, it's better formulated as "is god true"
@lunemarie Communism leads to starvation and genocide.
Christianity leads to western civilization.
And I’m saying that *as an atheist*.
Christianity leads to kiddy fiddling and murderous oppression
Not that the question of realness vs being true isn't a good question, but it too often leads to sidetracking.
God is real, from a certain point of view
The Enlightenment lead to western civilisation
No, kiddy fiddling and murderous oppression happens *despite* Christianity. Big difference.
@Scale_e that's basically true, but not entirely.
Ah yes because before the enlightenment Christians didn’t oppress people
@lunemarie the enlightenment required Christianity I believe
Think of all of the cool things that got swallowed by Christianity and painted as evil like Necromancy
Or pagan holidays
Nature Worship
Define "oppress" and "people"
big-tiddy demon chicks
Without Christianity... more or less oppression in the world?
Less
Heck even trick or treating is stolen from pagans and bastardised further from there
@Hommedaction requiring you not to be a fuck waffle is oppression
@Scale_e probably about the same. But by different people
and in different ways
The enlightenment was literally trying out classical philosophy again despite Christianity
Speaking of Christians and oppressing others....

And I mean that seriously, society does oppress us, but that's not neccesarily bad
Don't compare to utopia here. 20th century atheism oppressed more and in worse ways than christianity
