The worst false religion is that Flying Spaghetti Monster nonsense.

Scientology's a close second, I guess.

Pastarapharians are a FALSE religion just made up by some guys living in a desert who wrote down what ever they felt like. They even go so far as to say the hereafter is some kind of perpetual party. As you can see they are nothing like Christianity.

I can't seem to find the Mormons in this list. They would get my vote as the worst of the worst. Of all the ridiculous fairy tales upon which to found a religion, the absurd (where not utterly plagiarized) rantings of a convicted swindler is the stupidest!

Indeed, dear friend. The Mormons believe in a "holy" book that combines distorted versions of earlier religions' scriptures with made-up nonsense that contradicts everything we know about history. Why would anyone believe in that instead of the Holy Bible? I have added an option for Mormons.

I cannot believe you are being so disrespectful.

How respectful should we be of false religions that will damn their adherents to eternal torment? Back up your answer with Scripture, dear friend.

Re: POLL: The Worst False Religion?

I am sorry but I believe that all religions are equal and we should respect other beliefs.

Jesus refused to curse non-believers: Jesus' teachings were rejected by the inhabitants of a village in Samaria. His disciples asked that he exterminate the people of the village by issuing a curse. Jesus refused to do it, and simply move on to the next village.
Luke 9:52-56: "...they did not receive him...And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias did? But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of. For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. And they went to another village."

Re: POLL: The Worst False Religion?

...Jesus refused to curse non-believers...

What should we do? Accept only the verses that support your view or include also verses of the Bible that indicate the opposite?

Luke 19:27 But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.

How are we supposed to ignore this? Jesus says that those who do not accept Him and His power, i.e., those who do not believe Him, should be slain before Him. That is what Jesus tells us do do with non-believers. It is equally a part of the Bible. How do you choose the verses you follow?

Look at this:

Matthew 13:38-42
The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.
The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;
And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Children of the Kingdom = believers in Jesus. Tares = those who do not believe. They are according to Jesus cast into Hell. In your opinion, did Jesus lie here? Does the Bible lie? How do you tell the parts that are true from the lies?

Jesus doesn't curse unbelievers?

Matthew 25:41
Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

I'm sorry but if we take the Bible as the Word of God, your post does not make sense. Oh yeah, it would be wonderful if everybody were saved regardless of faith, conduct, obeying the Bible... But, according to the Word of God, it just isn't so.


Yours in Christ,

Please make a thread of your own in the "Introductions" section of the forum, so that we can properly greet you. Tell us about yourself, your church, and how you came to find Jesus.

And if you're here to flame us, better take a look at THIS before making an even bigger ass out of yourself.

I will pray that the Holy Spirit enter you and chase the demons out of your rectum and let Jesus fill you with His Grace. If you use your God-given free will to reject Christ and His temporary death on the cross for my sins, then you are sending yourself to hellfire.

I don't think I'll go to hell for believing that people with other beliefs should be respected. Open your eyes to the truth.

Hey, you want to know how much Jesus respects people who don't believe in Him? He's going to throw them in a Lake of Eternal Fire!!!



(John 3:18) "He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."

What would Jesus do to people who live good and righteous lives? But aren't Christian.

They're going to Hell. Check out John 3:16-18.

The Bible says that if they're not Christian, their lives are not good and righteous (by God's terms). Duh.

Here's a fun activity for you: go to one of the online Bible sites. Do a search of Scripture for the terms "love God" and "fear God". Report back with your results.
