This needs to become a t-shirt.
Where did this come from? Since I’d totally just silk screen it on or something, but don’t really want to violate any copyright laws.
Its just some text on a black background… I wouldn’t worry too much about it.
Well might have been someones idea/quote or something that is licensed or copyrighted, rather not break any laws of sorts.
It will only break laws if you start selling it. A personal print is 100% legal in both Canada and the US, assuming you’re from one of those.
Where does it say in the Bible that God hates gay people? He loves EVERYONE, me and you included. No matter what your sexuality is He will always love you. Our Father cares about us and wants us to come to Him. You see how there have been so many earthquakes and tsunamis recently just this and last year? He’s coming back soon… Compared to 40 years ago it was safer to step outside and have fun but now this once-good planet has become an immoral and filthy den of sinners. I know I’m a sinner, but I don’t WANT to sin. The world is going to end soon, I just know it. I’ll keep you all in my prayers, hoping that you come to Christ and surrender your hearts to Him. When we are in times of despair only He can give us comfort.
1 Peter 1:13 – Therefore, prepare your minds for action; be self-controlled; set your hope fully on the grace to be given you when Jesus Christ is revealed.
1 Corinthians 15:19 – If only for this life we have hope in Christ, we are to be pitied more than all men.
1 Peter 1:3 – … In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
Isaiah 40:31 – but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
The bible is jam packed with contradictions. That said, it does say pretty clearly:
“You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination.” (Leviticus 18:22)
“If a man lies with a male as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them.” (Leviticus 20:13)
Leviticus is always there to back the Atheists up.
Three cheers for Leviticus!
Hip Hip! Hoo- +gets hit with big fucking rocks+
Again, God does not hate gay people. He loves them so much that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believes in Him would not perish but have eternal life.
You cannot, however, enter the Kingdom of God while refusing to repent (which means turning away from your former way), anymore than a bank robber can continue to rob banks, an embezzler can continue to steal, or an adulterer can continue to commit adultery. Following Christ is about control and restraint — as Paul put it, dying to self daily. That means if you love God you obey Him, even if it means giving up things you like.
And God DID NOT choose for anyone to be a homosexual.
G;
If God loves us so much, why did he impute one man’s only sin, onto the rest of us for eternity ?
Then, need a human sacrifice to forgive us.
But, not so fast, turns out that we’re not forgiven after all.
We’re still lousy, wicked dirty little humans until we convince ourselves that we’re saved.
It seems that God lost his penchant for the blood of goats?
I think THAT, was a more secure bet.
Yeah the vicarious redemption bit is where it stops for me.
If you admitted to me that you killed someone, I could certainly go to the cops, turn myself in in your stead and serve your life sentence (or die in the electric chair) for you, but my action would not erase your dirty deed, nor take away your guilt. It would not bring the person you killed back to life either. The idea that God would have such immense and cruel suffering rain down on an innocent individual as a form of “justice” for a crime committed is one thing, but his own self personified as his only human Son?
What Christian’s don’t understand is that this is not a beautiful thing by any stretch. It’s an incredibly grotesque, cruel and capricious application of justice for wrong doing. Crucifying a completely innocent person for the sins of others distorts and perverts any and all structures of justice that we have. If we are all sinners deserving the death penalty PLUS eternal damnation and suffering in hell, then why confuse things further by punishing one innocent person or a million innocents?
God should just deploy his extreme form of justice and be done with the matter. Creating this elaborate, sanctimonious system of exceptions and dogma, were it true,is colossal waste of celestial time. Lastly, millions of people were born, lived and died not knowing one iota of the story of Jesus nor it’s implications to their lives. They were not aware of the requirement to be “save” vicariously by a neolithic carpenter. Did those millions get a free pass, or a last second crash course (Jesus 101) just before passing through the pearly gates?
Matthew 10:32-39:
“32 ‘Everyone therefore who acknowledges me before others, I also will acknowledge before my Father in heaven; 33but whoever denies me before others, I also will deny before my Father in heaven.
Not Peace, but a Sword
34 ‘Do …not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.
35 For I have come to set a man against his father,
and a daughter against her mother,
and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law;
36 and one’s foes will be members of one’s own household.
37Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; 38and whoever does not take up the cross and follow me is not worthy of me. 39Those who find their life will lose it, and those who lose their life for my sake will find it.”
He sounds real loving in these passages. HE wants to split households and HE wants not to bring peace to the earth but a sword. I guess peace is the job of the atheist. It is also worth noting that I copied this from an argument that a christian was trying to make in support of the quote by Richard Bonnke “My definition for atheism: INTELLECTUAL VANDALISM. “The fool has said in his heart, ‘there is no God’” (Psalm 14, 1)” Another quote that makes no sense. I do not think that the atheists are the ones filling minds with useless information that tries to persuade people into a single mode of thinking.
If “G” still thinks that God loves everybody, he needs to read Deuteronomy 28;
“Curses for disobedience ”
Deut. 28:22 The LORD will strike you with wasting disease, with fever and inflammation, with scorching heat and drought, with blight and mildew, which will plague you until you perish.”
26Your carcasses will be food for all the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth, and there will be no one to frighten them away. 27The LORD will afflict you with the boils of Egypt and with tumors, festering sores and the itch, from which you cannot be cured. 28The LORD will afflict you with madness, blindness and confusion of mind. 29At midday you will grope about like a blind man in the dark. You will be unsuccessful in everything you do; day after day you will be oppressed and robbed, with no one to rescue you.
There’s more !
Read all of Deut. 28. Can’t you feel the Love ?
You too, show a critical misunderstanding of God’s Word. Sadly skeptics will point out every little “flaw” to God’s immaculate and limitless personality and say “Look! He hates us now! Maybe He’s not so great now, is he!?!” The problem here is that skeptics don’t bother to read the entire stories and instead prefer to nitpick certain verses to “prove” a point. What point are you trying to prove?
Anyways, time to disprove your points.

Seriously you atheists are as dumb as a pickle.
Mr. VGG73AP;
I really am sorry if my “take” on Christianity offended you, but remember, you came here to us and not we to you.
Also, in all fairness, I admit that I find YOUR religion intellectually and morally offensive.
To think that I could once, spill the blood of an animal to take responsibility for my sins.
Would that work in a court of law today?
Let’s see, once we remove all the “tap dancing” from our topic,
What do we have?
What is the penalty for homosexuality ? Death. lev 20:13
What is the penalty for cursing your parents ? Death. ex 21:15
What is the penalty for worshiping other gods? Death. ex 22:20
What is the penalty for adultery? Death. lev 20:10
What is the penalty for working on the Sabbath? Death. ex 35:2
What is the penalty for anyone who blasphemes God? Death. lev 24:16
What is the penalty for a capital offense? Death. deut 21:22
What is the penalty for being a first born
child or animal in a land that holds the
Israelites captive? Death. ex 11:5
Hopefully, if you’ve ever worked on a Sunday, you were able to avoid having more than 2 men witnesing
this.
“He sounds real loving in these passages. HE wants to split households and HE wants not to bring peace to the earth but a sword. I guess peace is the job of the atheist.”
You don’t even know what you’re talking about. You’re taking all those verses out of context, as if God is directly speaking to all people and not just the evil and the wicked He is punishing. Would you honor a judge who lets murderers, rapists, burglars, etc. free and without punishment? NO! This is why God judged those people for their wicked ways. Man would become so independent and so full of pride that he would only think for himself. God wants us all to love one another.
As for the Peace vs. Sword argument help yourself to some quality reading:

“I do not think that the atheists are the ones filling minds with useless information that tries to persuade people into a single mode of thinking.”
That’s an absurd charge against true Christians. We are not the ones filling our minds with useless information; those who claim to be “open minded” are. We love hearing what others have to say, even though they don’t have a true grasp of Christianity. The naysayers who attack and badmouth our God are the evil ones. It is cold-hearted atheist fools like Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens who attack the beliefs of others by shoving it in their faces. Why not just leave us alone? I understand there are harsh people that *claim* to be “Christian”. They’re not. They are fakes and deceivers being used by the Devil.
I’,m having a hard time trying to understand just WHY people think that atheism makes for a more peaceful person? How do you get hope? If you suffered a near-death experience I’d like to know how many of you would call upon God for help? Only He is going to help you, not man. God wants to be a part of our lives.
ONE FACT: Christ, not atheism, Is responsible for changing more people for the good than any other person who as ever lived.
One example is in the jailing system. People who are “born again” in jail have a much much much lower chance of finding themselvs back again. Another is in divorce rates. Couples who pray together every day have a 3% chance of getting divorced verses a 49% if not… It can’t be rationally denied by sane men.
People talk about the crusades as Christs fault, seems like. So I ask a question. Was the Pope Christ or is he just the Pope. “He who lives by the sword dies by the sword” and “He who has not sinned, may cast the first stone” are beautiful…Truth…
I will not attack. I don’t wish to hurt people with my words or my fists. Because of this people see me as to kind and weak. I ask, dose it take more strength to attack or to make peace, to lie or tell the truth, to be prideful of to humble one’s self.
I ask, what side is of this argument possesses more people trying to make peace with the other and what side uses the most verbal violence with intent of hate… The answers to these two questions will tell us who is under control and who is not. Who is truly strong and who is not.
Lets grow up people. Set aside the angle and the animal.
(In the name of Jesus, save the one God. Let him who has ears to hear let him hear)

I trust you have sources to back the numbers up.
“I ask, what side is of this argument possesses more people trying to make peace with the other and what side uses the most verbal violence with intent of hate…”
I’m not sure I read that right, but if I did, then religion gives people another reason to kill each other. Atheism would seem to take that reason away, leading to less people killed in the name of a fairy tale. Which is more good?
>Couples who pray together every day have a 3% chance of getting divorced verses a 49% if not… It can’t be rationally denied by sane men.
Lol, what a crock of shit. I’d love to see the source on that bullshit claim. Divorce rates are highest in states where “conservative values” are the highest (eg, the red states).
