I read the bible... not the version you mentioned, but it's an interesting book, but I never really understood exactly why some people take this for truth...
There are plenty of other religions, or interpretations of those religions (you guys are just a small part of christianity), so please explain to me why you are right and they are wrong.
Unfortunatly, the answer: "the Bible says so" is not enough. I know you are convinced that the Bible is the only truth available, but I'm afraid muslims say the exact same thing abouth the koran, and others think it's all the same, books written by people, nothing more. Why would you be right, and all the others wrong?
Note: This section was split off from Is Your Child a Goth, as the discussion merited its own space. -OYK

Yes well, being a frenchie it would be tougher for you to understand God's Divine Plan. Try reading the REAL Bible, The Holy KJV1611 Bible, the only one dictated directly by God, and you may stand a chance of grasping His love.
Surely you aren't so twisted as to imagine that a filthy sand nigra cult is somehow equivilent to Jesus?
Here is a partial list from just a few scripture verses:
Hypocrites (Matthew 24:51), The Unforgiving (Mark 11:26), Homosexuals (Romans 1:26, 27), Fornicators (Romans 1:29), The Wicked (Romans 1:29), The Covetous (Romans 1:29), The Malicious (Romans 1:29), The Envious (Romans 1:29), Murderers (Romans 1:29), The Deceitful (Romans 1:29), Backbiters (Romans 1:30), Haters of God (Romans 1:30), The Despiteful (Romans 1:30), The Proud (Romans 1:30), Boasters (Romans 1:30), Inventors of evil (Romans 1:30), Disobedient to parents (Romans 1:30), Covenant breakers (Romans 1:31), The Unmerciful (Romans 1:31), The Implacable (Romans 1:31), The Unrighteous (1Corinthians 6:9), Idolaters (1Corinthians 6:9), Adulterers (1Corinthians 6:9), The Effeminate (1Corinthians 6:9), Thieves (1Corinthians 6:10), Drunkards (1Corinthians 6:10), Reviler (1Corinthians 6:10), Extortioners (1Corinthians 6:10), The Fearful (Revelation 21:8), The Unbelieving (Revelation 21:8), The Abominable (Revelation 21:8), Whoremongers (Revelation 21:8), Sorcerers (Revelation 21:8), All Liars (Revelation 21:8)

Well, I guess explaining that explaining Belgium isn't France is useless, after all they're not mentioned in the Bible, so it can't mather anyway, can it?
Anyway, that kjv1611 Bible, exactly what's the difference between that one and the other versions? God himself just came down and told somebody what he wanted to be written down? Strange little story, I thought taking drugs made you goth? whatever...
And you missed my point abouth the islam (or, for that mather, any other religion): from their point of view they are right and you are wrong. and they all have some Gods to back them up, and they probably also came down to tell mankind what to do. So to me, some guy who isn't baised yet, they all look the same. I already asked: why are you right? and I also already told: the Bible says so is not a good anwer.

Okay.... No army in the history of earth has ever gone to the battlefield thinking God sided with the enemy.
From a logical standpoint, everyone should leave everyone else the hell alone. But that doesn't happen. God laid down some pretty straight forward rules. They're in the old and new testament. That whole, "Don't tread on me," doctrine came from somewhere. Honestly though, check out the histories of the world's modern religions. You'll find one hell of a lot of contradictions.
"If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing. . . . And if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out as the manservant's do."
(Leviticus 21:6-7)

That is the point Friend; The Bible is God’s message to creation. If Islam or Mormonism were the right one God would say so in The Bible and they wouldn’t have to have those extra books.
Look, the argument of Islam and Mormonism is damn silly from their own view point friend; they all claim to worship the same God as the Christians do. This God is supposed to be all powerful, all knowing, active in the world and perfect. So according to Mohamed and Joseph Smith God is too dumb or doesn’t care so mere men could screw up His message The Bible so God felt the need to put out supplemental works. They undermine themselves with their own argument. If God is that dumb, weak or uncaring why worship Him?
Time to reclaim our FREEDOM from the “Mullah in Chief” and his growing activist voter hoards of socialists, communists, anti-Semites, anti-Christians, atheists, radical gays and lesbians, feminists, illegal immigrants, Muslims, anti-Anglo whites and others.

Jesus is a proven fact. Moses going out of egypt is a proven fact. There are, indeed, a lot of proven facts. However, the Bible also contains a lot of metaphors (the creation of earth) or details that where changed for some reason, like the sea splitting and a pilar of fire coming down upon the egyptians to stop them (That one was written by the Jew's high priest because the jews where, yet again, slaves somewhere... Babylon, I believe).
While a lot of the basic stories are hystorically correct,almost everything is writen by humans, and certainly not by some God. The only thing which I can agree on are the ten commandments. But, for example, the first testament. The first gospel was written in abouth the year 60, and the last on in abouth 100... So Jesus would be dead for 27 or 67 years, depending which one you're talking abouth. None of the writers ever met Jesus, and because the average age wasn't to high back then, they probably haven't met many people who actually had met Jesus. Their writtings are based on the few eyewithnesses who were still alive, some mysterious text called the Q-text which we don't know right now and other, loose fragments.
Of course, there where more than four gospels written, the non canonical gospels. The death sea scrolls, for example, or one abouth Jesus years as a child (that one is almost sure to be completely made up). There where more, but I doubt we'll ever find them all. Most are probably destroyed anyway. I hope you guys know that the only reason the ones that are in the Bible right now are in the Bible right now, is because they where chosen, I believe somewhere after the year 300... I somebody gives you a lot of stories abouth the same event, and you have to choose four that are right and others are wrong, I don't think there is a lot you have to base yourself upon.
All of this means that, despite the fact that Jesus lived and that he was an extraordinary man, not his whole story is a fact.
It's also like I'm wrong right now, but I believe that the ressurection is mentioned in the qur'an. After all, Jesus might not be considered to be the son of God in that book, but he supposed to be a pretty important prophet. I'm not sure, though... But of course, for the other 'false' religions, that isn't an important thing, after all, Jesus has nothing to do with them.

For mormonism: You do realise Chrisianity started as what is today known as catholicism, right? You guys split off too... and for the Islam: It's a different religion. Mohamed has taken parts of both Judaism and christianity, but they don't even use the Bible. It's like a Jew saying that Jesus is nog important because he isn't mentioned in the torah (Which I believe is roughly the same as the old testament, right?)
And for the second part, I can again compare it to the Jews: Jesus came there, and basically start telling the word of God. There are still Jews around today, so I guess not everybody believed him... It's about the exact same thing. But for you Jesus is real, but don't forget that he lived quite some time ago.
Perhaps God thinks that his rules shouldn't be always exactly the same. I know that He is supposed to be all knowing, but mankind changes. We learn new things, we stop doing other things. As a lousy example, it would be useless if God let Jesus tell us what to do with video games; I think most people would have declared him insane because those didn't exist.
Another example: If you are the captain of a ship, you can't sail always to the east. For 200 miles that might be great, but then there is a storm, and even if you knew about this storm all along, going east was the best to do, but now it isn't anymore. The orders have to change.
Do you understand what I mean? Mankind changes, we discover new things, and let go of old things. If a God created us, he must have intended it that way, and he must know that after some changes the orders we reciever earlier are no longer correct, and so he sends a new prophet.
I know Jesus wasn't a regular prophet, so perhaps a lot had to change. after all, he did bring a huge change, Christianity is still the biggest religion in the world...

I'm ignoring most of your rambling because you obviously know nothing of history or the Truth of the Bible. Instead I will focus on this one lie. Baptists were never catolists! We aren't even Protestants or Catholics. We predate them all, going right back to John the Baptist and Jesus Christ.

Why would God change His rules??? God by definition perfect and unchanging. What you just posted is apologetics for that made up religion and again is heresy because it makes God out to be a bumbling fool who has to stumble along in the wake of man. Buy arguing this you are spitting into the face of God, calling Him a feeble, foolish and shortsited. With this statement you are trying to push Him over, urinate on Him and then writting what you want on His forhead with a sharpe pen.
That my friend is not Christian.
God sent Christ because the Jew, man, refused to obey Him. God inspired the Christians to break away from the Catholics because the Pope, man again, twisted God’s message. It is man that fails not God. If God can fail He is not God as TRUE Christians define Him. Maybe you find that acceptable in your hippy, preacher feel good religion friend but I keep faith in The God of The Bible. Is your idea of Sunday worship kicking arround a cross and shouting "looser" at it at the top of your' lungs?

Yeah, sorry to say, but the whole Moses thing was never proven, there is not one shred of evidence proving that Moses led a vast number of jews around a desert for any particular number of years. Also, we only have historical evidence jesus was a prophet, thats it. Most of christianity has egyptian mythology roots, along with many other religions that come before it, making me wonder what makes people believe any of it. Out of the 10000000 religions out there, who knows who is right? I would love to know, but whatever. I will live life my own way, treating people nicely, while looking out for myself, and if that isn't good enough for god, then oh well.
Nice question presented though.

I want to know something. You're a Christian (duh). You want to get others to follow. Do you really think that attacking them is the way to go about it? Wouldn't that scare them away from you, and then potentially away from the idea of religion in general?
And why do you feel it's necessary to refer to Middle Eastern people are Sand-Nigras? Does that not seem racist to you at all?

What do you suggest we do? Lie to them? Compenstate on God's will?!
We'd only be damning them.. Besides, we're Christians. WE DON'T LIE!
But we speak the truth in all and any situation.
Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?
Galatians 4:16
If you can't handle the truth, that's just too bad and I'll pity you and pray for you.
But God never compensates! You either live in righteousness or you perish in your sins.
What will it be?
If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: But if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.
A foolish woman is clamorous: She is simple, and knoweth nothing.
Proverbs 9:12-13

I suggest you tell them the truth. God loves them and wants them to be with Him. He wants them to be good people, meaning they follow what we all know to be right. Don't kill, don't steal, don't cheat, don't worship whatever Gods seem "cool" at the time, and don't lie. You don't have to scare the shit out of them with promises of eternal pain, damnation, and other stuff. That's just the wrong way to go about things. In ANY situation.

No, you're suggesting that we tell them ONLY ONE SIDE OF THE COIN, THE ONE YOU LIKE, THE ONE YOU WANT US TO TEACH!
But we don't care about your opinions, only God's. So that's not happening, demon.
God wants them to love Him, and He wants to be with them:
But if they reject His love, then they are condemned to an eternity in hell!
Both are true, and if you take one out, you take away from the truth, and then you are a liar, a false teacher, and a general cheat.
And not only is that wrong, but you can't be a sinner and a Christian, it's not possible.
Consider this discussion finished.
If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: But if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.
A foolish woman is clamorous: She is simple, and knoweth nothing.
Proverbs 9:12-13

That's what Jesus did. Do you know better than Jesus? Should I throw away my "What Would Jesus Do?" shirt and get a "What Would Peter Skulls Do?" shirt instead?

First, I don't think that someone with the hostility to the people of God that you have demonstrated should be throwing the first stone on this matter--it's rather like the proverbial pot calling the kettle black. Nevertheless, I'll try to assume that your question wasn't entirely motivated by malice and explain this to you, since you are missing the point entirely.
We're NOT insulting anyone when we use the term sand-nigra. If you read your Bible, you'll see that the A-rabs and the other nigras are all the descendents of Caanan by Ham. They are all one people, none better than any others, and they are all equally subject to Noah's curse. As for the word nigra (and similar derivations), we didn't make up the word at Landover Baptist, that's just the word for those people in the English language--a language with which, in all candor, you might want to become a bit more intimate before posting further musings in this forum. It has been that way for thousands of years, ever since God created the English language at the Tower of Babel.
We're actually exalting the whole nigra race when we point out the Canaanite connection between the sand-nigras and other nigras, since at least the Muslimmedians have progressed to the point where they worship only three false gods (Allah, Moe Hammad, and Ben Laudin) rather than the hundreds of he-devils and she-devils to whom the other nigras sacrifice all of their virgins in lavish voodoo orgies. As you should be able to see from Landover's extensive missionary work, it is our most fervent desire to bring all of those people (especially the virgins) into the presence of the Lord by forcing them to accept Christ Jesus's gift of eternal salvation. After all, somebody's got to clean up after the Heavenly banquets.
At Landover Baptist, we don't judge people by the colors of their skins. God has already done that for us. We don't believe in racism, but we do believe in Jesus, we believe in God's Truth--all of it--as set forth in the eternal Holy Bible (King James 1611 version, thank you), and yes, we believe in calling a spade a spade.

Well your unsupported assertion has completely convinced me!
Why don't you take the time to read the thread first, and find something specific to rebut. You might try making points and backing your points with evidence, rather than your standard, "is not, because I said so."

Surely you aren't so twisted as to imagine that a filthy sand nigra cult is somehow equivilent to Jesus?

Wow, you are a rascist a**hole.
I thought 'god' didn't like that.
Oh, and Shiva would pwn Jesus, and his daddy.

Can you say "not necessary"?
Anyway, I agree that Jesus did not only offer peace, but rather he also brought a sword. However, you can't implement one and forsake the other. Only with the sword in one hand and the peaceful love of Christ in the other can you truly reach people. Inherent in the word Christian is the command that we are to be "Christ-like"; that we are to spread His love and commandments. As in John 13:34, we are to love one another as He has loved us. We as Christians are obviously fallible, but the impression that the general public gets from us is that we are a bunch of self-righteous fanatics who use scare tactics to convert people, and I think a lot of sects bring it on themselves. As the saying goes, you catch more bees with honey than with vinegar, and that philosophy has worked a lot better for me when dealing with non-Christians. I show them that Christians are weak and fallible just like everyone else and that we are saved by grace through faith. We don't get to Heaven with scare tactics or by doing good works, but rather we first believe with our hearts and then let our faith compel us to do good works in His name, so that Christianity can be spread effectively. Being Christian is never about being the right faith; it's about having a reason to accept God into your life.
