The perpetrators of the Holocaust weren't true Christians.

The Christian God's forgiveness only applies for true Christians, not wannabe's or last-minute repentants.


Oh dear. That kind of mucks up a lot of the bible, doesn't it?

Oh wait, you want to be special. He only likes you, doesn't he? Don't worry, I believe God has a special place for people like you..

There is a wiki page about almost anything. So of course there's a page about the eight wonder of the world: toilet paper!

Strangely, the page doesn't say anything about the Chinese being gods... Hmm..

1.Christian God loves everyone, and I believe he forgives non believers as well. Well actually, God only forgives us if we repent, and you wouldn't repent if you did not have some faith, so disregard the 1st sentence.

2.Christianity is 2nd? Well I kinda expected that for this site.

3.There was no need for that last option, cuz anyone who picks it is prolly Athiest.

4.You guys may want to repent before its to late, the end is near, and you cannot be forgiven after death.

The bible does say that the path to Hell is wide and the path to Heaven is thin, I guess that means Hell will be pretty full. :(

Capitalism is always the answer. Whenever there's a problem in capitalism, you just need some more capitalism. If the solution isn't capitalism, then it's not really a problem. If your capitalism gets damaged, you just need to throw some capitalism on it and get on with your life.

Indeed. The Great Old ones are coming, and Cthulhu stirs in his Great City. Repent before the stars align, and you may have the pleasure and relief of being eaten first. Believe me, it is far preferable to the fate of those who do not have faith in our tentacled Lord.

Iä! Iä! Cthulhu Fhtagn!

Diamond Way Buddhist

I believe in the worldview, I most wish to be true, while acknowledging I cannot know anything for certain.
It enriches my life, though, gives me some support and hope, so why not?

If I can't be sure which, if any, faith is right, I'll damn well just pick the one that speaks to me most and just roll with it.

I'll take what I can get. I'm not sure if I would like it as much here if the atheist population were significantly smaller. It's nice being around like-minded people.
