but then we have that power to manipulate such books at such easy access to those who would manipulate it to benefite themselves.
and you claim darkness is behind us.


when speech is free the truth will win out.

I highly recommend you try reading the bible, maybe just stick with the book of Mathew for now. you could also find a copy of the didache online, that's going to be a bit quicker of a read.

absent claim, what if there was a god of darkness who was more active than the god of light
while god sits back saying you must seek him out in order to be with him, the one known as lucifer will come to anyone offering ability to spread taint into the lives of millions.

"absolute power is absolute corruption"


"It's said that "power corrupts," but actually it's more true that power attracts the corruptible. The sane are usually attracted by other things than power. When they do act, they think of it as service, which has limits. The tyrant, though, seeks mastery, for which he is insatiable, implacable." - David Brin

that's not free speech, that is this is how you will interpet this or you will be beaten.

there is no god, there is only you, and your pathetic attemps to blame the atrocities done in the name of man on an imaginary figure.

an imaginary figure based on ideals that you don't even understand.


god is what we make of him, and when free to interpret the religious books as we see fit, we tend to make of him good with in our selfs.

twice you've purported religious things that don't exist out side of brainwashed cults. Clearly you don't understand even the basic Christian ideals.

well, which two are these?

e; i have a small idea of what the 'christian ideals' are, but that's like comparing marxism (the theory) to communism (the reality)

in theory, live life for light and others will know beauty
in reality, rape children because you are the pope and you have sufficient power to do so

its like he wanted us to get all hot and sweaty and tired working our asses off when we really dont need to

meanwhile he helps promote stupification so that people can be enslaved by anything, not only material goods.


These

In theory life life for light blah blah
in reality, die happy surrounded by loved ones.

In theory cover up your own corruption rather than admit it and take the punishment for your crime
In reality 30 years down the line some one is going to find out and then your really going to be screwed.
