Why do you participate in religious threads when you clearly are not a believer in Christianity and you only put down Christians?? Is this a thrill-seeking type of behavior you enjoy or do you simply like to belittle others? I'm truly interested in knowing why you behave in such a manner. A grown-up surely has something better to do with his/her time than attack Christians in a forum.

You're right. Much of the Bible doesn't make sense.

Yes, actually, each religion has its account of the end times, to think somehow that the Christian version supersedes all others is,,, Bush like

Just so you know, I'm a Christian and I'm making this statement because it's in the Word of God, the Holy Bible.----------------
It's fine with me if you want to be religious and spout fire and brimstone in your own home, but do you have to flaunt it in public? To many people it's disgusting and I just don't know why we have to have it thrown in our faces...

Not to speak out of turn, but he probably learned this type of behavior from some self-proclaimed Christians.

Why don't we let him tell us? And please bear in mind that not all Christians are "bad".

One bad apple don't spoil the bunch. Try to judge each individual by their merits rather than bulk us all together, please.

Too tired to write a novel, so here are some bullets....

1. I'm not attacking anyone, merely stating an observation. When the OP started this post with "Rejoice Heathens, Pagans, Infidels, Atheists....." I just figured I was being invited to comment. Silly me.

2. I'm sure you claim to be a Christian, even as you're here to judge me.

3. I've already asked for a "Religion" forum so you can all preach to and praise one another to your heart's content.

4. I wonder if you'll end up with a profile infraction for the personal attack you just made. I doubt it.

Which is why I specifically stated “some self-proclaimed Christians”. I think he knows not all are bad, but the bad ones are pretty vocal and other Christians don’t seem to be as vocal in quieting them down.

Well many Christains, including ones here on the board, seem to think it is ok to base a faith on the actions of the bad ones, so why should Christians be held to a different standard? I think it's fair to judge groups based on how they have their members judge.

Never said that. The Bible makes a whole lot of sense.

One quick test. Can you provide a time line of events for the resurrection using all four gospels?
