Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else. I have sworn by myself, the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and shall not return, That unto me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear. Surely, shall one say, in the LORD have I righteousness and strength: even to him shall men come; and all that are incensed against him shall be ashamed.

No that was from the creator himself. Be careful because what comes out of a man's mouth is what defiles him. Every Idle word man speaks he'll give an account for on the great day.

the bible was written by man
for man
and inspired by MAN

Not anymore, see now the Bible is written by machine. You go to the bookstore and get you a Bible and see if it wasn't printed right out by a printer of some sort. Therefore it was inspired by the printer.
One can find the same level of reasoning in your quote and the above statement.
Originally posted by madnessinmysoul
so you're equating humanity to a printer for some sort of divine (fictional) being?
wow, that's demeaning
Originally posted by madnessinmysoul
do you honestly think that every word in the bible is the direct word of god?

that was deep pancho... i like what you wrote.
who invented the interest rate and let people borrow money and made them pay it back with interest? If you said the "early church" you are right.
If any religion was the way of god... dont you think they should ve given the money to those who need it with no need to pay back? Wouldnt that be the right thing to do?

i thought it was the jewish people who created interest, long before christ come around.

Maybe you are right... but i know the people were of some religious sect. But even after christ the church further developed and used interest rates to profit from the people.

I'm sorry to tell you this, but the bible is man's word, god doesn't speak in words.
Originally posted by 7Pan7cho7
The bible was written by men, and then a good while after the man you call jesus was said to have died, they got together and voted on which stories they would put in the bible and which to omit.
Originally posted by 7Pan7cho7
I suppose that you would also consider burning "witches" at the stake god's work because they said it was. Hmmmm, who was it that earned the rights to the "witches" property after they were killed, oh yeah, the church; they probably had to perform certain exorcism on the land so it would be clean and "holy".

There is not one religion on this planet that is perfect, or "god's religion". Religion is the opiate of the masses, and apparently you are very consumed at the moment.
Originally posted by 7Pan7cho7
You're attitude is a perfect example of what's wrong with this world today, division, a feeling of "I am worthy and you are not."
Originally posted by 7Pan7cho7
When will the people awaken from their slumber and see that life isn't about who's religion is right, who's "holy" and who's not.
Originally posted by 7Pan7cho7
Until we stop seeing these divisions, we will know no peace.

I also realize that some people are so stubborn that even if the truth were presented to them in an undeniable way, they would just pretend they never saw it.

Like i said people lack empathy... you are a perfect example.
