Matrix,
I'll try and keep this short. People who rhamble waste their time and others.
1.) No thanks I'm not going to get baptised in any ones name. I have a name, it came from my birth mother and I would sell God, Jesus and the whole lot a million times over compaired to the value of her. Dont quote 'love ones family' from the bible ....... The REAL world of who is important really counts. I owe no one for being born but her, no god made me, no god made the Universe
2.) You said : We do have God stamped on us. It is not on our hindside though it is in our hearts. People will always serve something. It might only be that they serve each other, but they will serve something and never be truely satisfied at the end of life, regardless of how many things you buy or how many people you help. It is like a drug that never get any better but you always want that first high again like the first time. I've done counseling with drug addicts and they all say the same thing. "I was searching for something and thought it was X (place whatever you will in the X)". It is God they are searching for and just haven't figured it out yet
This is going to be my closing statement for the day
Just LOOK at all the effort your putting in to strive for meaning in your life, you think others need the same? Wrong
People who are so wrapped up in religion are deficient somehow with their own minds. They cannot feel comfortable with the Universe knowing they are alone. No one loves you Matrix, no lovely place awaits your death. Your going to die like the rest of us. Stop searching for something that doesnt exist
Lastly I will repeat. I am not anti this and anti that jumping at religion. I AM however against people who try to spread their views as FACTS and EVIDENCE to those who do not know better.
Am I about to offend 2.6 million people ....... if they all think God and religion is the truth about the Universe........... YES , I think your all NUTS

As far as the history of Christianity is concerned, Constantine was one of the most influential men that ever lived. From the time that the Bible ended (about the year A.D. 96), until Martin Luther nailed his theses to the church door in 1517,--there was no single person that so changed the course of church history as did Constantine. Indeed, his influence was so vast that it continues to tower over Christendom in this our own time. Both in church customs and in church government we owe a lot to Constantine's intervention.

Alright, lets go from this point.
Satan created the Matrix to blind you from seeing God and the Messiah.

So therefore, the church must have started the matrix. And they are people in control, so have control of you?!?
Everyone will reach heaven, as everyone is part of the same whole, it is just some may take longer than others.

I brought that thought process up earlier ......... it was not addressed
I have no use for religion. It is the Matrix.
And Satan started the Matrix.

Again, the Matrix is designed to keep you in blindness and keep you from worshipping the true God.
You have also yet to reply to my questioning of your thoughts about your theory of SUNday.
Originally posted by Sun MatrixI wasn't aware of a rule that said I needed to waste my time answering every poorly thought out question.
What in the world would a Jewish translation have to do with the fact that churches worship God on SUN-day.
Please, don't even waste time on the answer.
Great definition on Christianity being a religion. It certainly is defined that way because..............
The Matrix rolls on....................
Um, gee I don't know ....... common forum courtesy maybe?

When Constantine was issuing his Sunday laws, was he a consistent Christian? Hardly. At that very time he was embellishing the Temple of the Sun in Rome. In the same year that he proclaimed his first Sunday law, he made several decrees maintaining pagan practices, such as consulting with heathen priests for guidance, who would then watch the flight of birds, or cut open animals, in order to know the advice to give. All this Constantine legalized.
It is a historical fact that when Constantine issued this first imperial Sunday edict of A.D. 351, enforcing the observance of Sunday by the people of the Roman Empire,--he himself was still a worshiper of Sol Invictus, "the Invincible Sun" (Mithra), as well as being the Pontifex Maximus (supreme pagan pontiff or priest) of Roman heathen worship as the state religion. Both he and the Christian leaders at Rome were half-converted Christians and together they worked to unite all under one church roof.
In another of his six Sunday laws, he gave the order that the soldiers be marched out into the field every Sunday morning for a sunrise service, there to recite a prayer as, with closed eyes, they faced toward the rising sun. Pagan ritual had required that they face the sun in a sunrise service as they gave their prayers to the sun god, so this feature was required in this Sunday edict
Constantine's help was given only to the worldly church leaders at Rome; those Christians that resisted the errors that were being introduced into the church met with his opposition. "Unite with the bishop of Rome or be destroyed," was Constantine's position.
But the effects of that life reach down to our own time. The errors that he helped establish within the Church are with us to this day. Without his help it is questionable whether the Roman Catholic church-state control of Europe could have begun, been as strong, or lasted for so long a period of time. He laid a foundation upon which church leaders have built for centuries.
The door is narrow, and few find it.
Although, some of your points may indeed be correct, that is not the complete picture. You are keeping yourslef in a very narrow mindframe and do not consider any other parts of the truth.
I believe the Bible reveals the true nature of God.
God is simple yet so complex, as we are all part of God, we cannot possibly comprehend the true nature of god. Only once one has raised oneself to the top of the Godhead can one comppletely understand God, and as humans we are at the bottom of the ladder.
Well, I agree with one comment here, "all religion did come from one place" I believe I covered where the lie of religion came from. And I does stretch across the world, all the way to the Land of the RISING SUN.
If you look at all religions, and take away all of the rubbish that has been gathered, all religions are left with just the Truth at the core. At one time all the religions of the world must have come from the same place, but they have all taken their own paths over the generation and gathered up a lot useless baggage, but if you take all that away, all religions are the same!
Yes, that is the Matrix that deceives you. All RELIGION have the same lie, dressed up differently.
So, you are talking rubbish when you say only followers of Christ can be released from the Matrix. All religions have their Christ's, they are just dressed up differently.
Nope, just the Matrix. My whole point.
And the christ story isn't new anyway, history repeats itself, there are many similarities between Jesus and Osiris; just another incarnation?!?
I am well aware of this lie also. I will be covering it shortly.
But then you should all consider the importance of the feminine half. In the Osiris story, Isis is just as if not more important than Osiris.
Ah...............The Matrix
Where as in the Jesus story the equivalent of Isis; Mary Magdalene, has been made out to be a whore and almost completely left out of the picture.
Sun, you should leave room for other possibilities and not keep such a narrow line of thought.

The door is narrow and few find it. Thank you for your comments, however. I take it that you are a Mason. I will be covering the Matrix in Freemasonary eventually. Same lie, different names.
