But you allways seem to be wrong. :shrug:
*************
M*W: That is your wishful thinking.
You were wrong, according to your own admission, about Christianity...Supposedly you were a bible thumping fire and brimstone Christian...wrong about that.
*************
M*W: I have always said I was wrong about christianity WHILE I WAS A CHRISTIAN. Don't try to twist my words. I believed, but I was wrong because christianity was wrong.
You even thought i was a fundamentalist, then that i was a Christian, i dont even know any fundamentalist's and if i were a Christian i would say i was a Christian.
*************
M*W: Maybe I misunderstood your beliefs, but reading your earlier posts, they were rather apologetic of christianity. So, I may have been mistaken about your specific beliefs, but you still continue to be (or to sound) apologetic. However, it doesn't matter to me what your affiliation may be, it's not going to change what I have to say. I don't make a habit of writing so as to please the reader. I say what I have to say, like it or not.
And the Christians on this board all maybe three of them all you do is push them further into it.
*************
M*W: What they do is not my responsibility. They do what they do because they want to. Obviously, they're not going to take what I have to say seriously, just like you, so what they choose to do or to not do is totally up to them. If what I have to say pushes them further into their religious addiction, that would happen anyway. If it weren't me, it would be somebody else. It's an easy excuse to refuse to learn. After all, I'm not the only atheist and anti-christian in the world. Maybe I'm just one of the louder ones. They don't listen to me anyway, so I fail to see how anything I do or say would affect them.
You say you are bringing truth's to others, so what is it?
*************
M*W: I've repeated this so many times, I don't see the purpose of doing it again. Let me give you a hint: sun worship myths.
Anyone can flood a board with comical passages like you did in the OP about a passover story.
*************
M*W: You can think what I say is comical if you want to. That is your right. I put a lot of reading and research into the topics I write about. I always provide back-up documentation, references, citations, bibliographies and such. When you say that my beliefs are comical, I can assure you there are many respected scholars whom I have studied that must be comical, too.
So just give us an insight without bashing any specific religion as to what the truth is that you know almost 100% of.
*************
M*W: No bashing intended. If you take it that way, that is your problem. Yet, you claim not to be a christian.
The truth of what I believe (and what many scholars have published) is that christianity (and all religions) are mythological, as in created by men probably for the purpose of entertainment. There have been many dying demigod saviors who were born, lived, died, and were resurrected, all with the same theme as Jesus. He wasn't the first, by the way. There were some 24 saviors prior to the Jesus myth evolving, but all of them were based on sun worship and were mythological. I'm not discriminating against Jesus or christianity, none of them are real.
With 5,600 post dont you think you owe this forum the truth?
*************
M*W: Can you or can you not read? The only reason I come to this forum is to speak the truth as I see it. I did not create this out of my wild imagination. I read, research, question, confirm, publish and present what I believe. If you've somehow missed it, I can't help you. I'm not quite sure what you're looking for from me. Maybe you should go back and re-read the posts and threads that I've created or replied to. Somehow, I just think you are ignoring me (on purpose) and what I've got to say.
*************
M*W: The truth is what I give you. You just don't recognize it yet.
*************
M*W: Now, you're getting nit picky and trying to twist my words. Think about what I said. The desire to seek the truth starts with a thought or idea. It may come as confusion or doubt. It can slap you in the face, but sometimes you can't see the truth until is runs over you like a train! What inspires one's quest for the truth is going to be different for each of us. I said what inspired me to search for the truth was an uneasy 'sensation.' I don't mean like ESP or telepathy or clairvoyance. I mean like sitting in church or a prayer meeting when questions would arise in my head. I did not always rear those questions unless it was to a priest or someone with more advanced knowledge who could answer my question intellectually. I found all too often that if I had a question about Jesus or the bible or god, if I tried to discuss it with my ex-husband, he would just ridicule me for having doubt and, of course, that was a sin. It was like a viscious circle. I couldn't move forward in my search for the truth, because I always seemed to be directed right back to the place where I shouldn't even be asking! I knew I wasn't going to get any answers unless I found the truth for myself. It was a very lonely pursuit, but it was well-worth the journey.
I'm not here to convert anyone to atheism. That's not something that someone else can do to you. Atheism is something that is revealed to you when the time is right for you. That time comes after you do the reading and research. It could take years. It could take a lifetime. It's not an overnight 'sensation.' That 'sensation' is like a light bulb going on in your head. Everything becomes clear. That's what I meant when I said I had a 'sensation.' Maybe I should have just said that I had the desire to learn more about christianity while I was a christian. My pursuit wasn't toward pursuing atheism, it was really toward a deeper understanding of christianity.
I hope this isn't too comical for you.
