Topic: Christianity is Poison (Read 52610 times)
Koran and Bible books were written by people for the main goal of a certain benefit for them, so it is hard to be books about true religion, and are more about benefict of certain groups.
Peace is a wonderful thing. Notice how it says, "I do not give it as the world does." We have to remember that worldly peace is only temporary, but God's peace is forever.
As much as I think Christianity is a problem in todays world,I still will read it to see how extensive its roots are in the every day aspects of living.
Somethings I was not aware of before where Christian sayings or labels and I would like to be able to spot them.

The only reason for Christianity is to offer believers a resurrection from death to a better life. All the good that it does is to entice people to become believers, so that they can go to Heaven rather than Hell.
“Why should I fear death?
If I am, then death is not.
If Death is, then I am not.
Why should I fear that which can only exist when I do not?
Long time men lay oppressed with slavish fear.
Religious tyranny did domineer.
At length the mighty one of Greece
Began to assent the liberty of man.”
― Epicurus
The point of the thread (I think) was to show that Christianity clouds your judgment by believing in the Bronze Age nonsense.
Christianity also provides one with very immoral rules such as stoning adulterers, killing of gays, discrimination of women etc.
Christian beliefs can directly affect your health, refusing medical treatment such as blood transfusions could kill you (Jehova's Witnesses). Many fundamental Christians believe that praying and praying alone can cure any diseases.
ye take all this as bad things, there are very good reasons for all of these things; u cant just snip a bunch of things out of context and get good utility out of them.
Contrary to popular mainstream Atheistic rants that religion or specifically Christianity is poisonous to society, I want to argue that Christianity has done and will continue to provide society with many great social positives.
And if you care to be honest about it, you should also mention that as an organization Christianity has inflicted (and continues to inflict) a lot of harm.
Of course, religions were useful in the past, and in some countries are the only thing that is used to establish the law and order.
Point is that we have developed our morality on more humane, equal rights, do not harm type of concepts. As for the legal aspects, religions are rarely used (with an exception of few countries) as a sole source of legal rules.

Posting something you don’t own is against in any religion.
I’m calling the attention of OP to check post like this one so that the merit won’t just long gone for nothing.

I don't get what you are trying to say...
Are you saying I plagiarized this thread from another website?
I've never seen that before, and don't even agree with all of it... I certainly didn't copy anything from it
His life was written eighty years after his death, by people who had not directly known him.
This is simply incorrect. The first gospel written was Mark, circa 70-80CE... It is commonly believed that Jesus was born in 3CE, and died at 33 in the year 36CE... This would make it 35-45 years after he died, not 80.
I suppose the point is still the same though... if it took 40 years for anyone to write down anything about Jesus... it probably didn't happen... even if it did happen, memories are horrible with events that happened 40 years ago (if you aren't 40 yet, just trust me on this)... you can simply forget about any direct, word for word, quotes of Jesus being accurate 40 years after he said them
It is like writing today about some John who lived in the 1940s in Alabama that nobody heard about. You can write whatever you want and nobody can verify it. But if you back it up with God, well, then every gullible, uneducated twat will believe it. Maybe that is why nobody wrote anything about Jesus during the time he supposedly lived.
This whole story smells like a complete fabrication.

I’m not posting here for religious discussion, as I’m not one of “the righteous man”.
But I only know how to respect each and everybody’s “faith”.

Christianity is a fiction.
It is a disease, a sickness, a pathology, a poison.
It has not been helpful to humanity in finding the truth in any sense.
It has been trying to propagate lies so continuously that they have almost become truth.
Jesus had never even heard the name Christianity. It has been imposed on him, he was not the founder of Christianity.
His life was written eighty years after his death, by people who had not directly known him.
Now even Christian scholars have come to the conclusion that the Christian gospels were not written by the apostles but were written by somebody else, because the mountains described are not in the same place where they are described in the gospels. The rivers described are not in the same place where they are described in the gospels.
Everything was written by people who had not known Jesus Christ, and neither had they lived with Jesus Christ.

You should respect the people's right to their "faith" in their private lives. We should definitely ridicule the idiotic, cancerous ideas their "faith" is based on.
Same goes for Nazis, White Supremacist, Communist, Socialist, and all the other racial, religious and cultural supremacist ideologies (yes that includes you Blacks, Muslims, Israelis, and Latinos).
Religious ideologies based on the supernatural realm should not exist in the 21 st century. Their stupidity should be ridiculed everywhere in the public domain.
PS. Why Christians don't call themselves Constantinians?
What make religion Poison ? the fact you put together human idea of how they think about religion does not change the fact that religion has actually helped built some nation.. Every good thing always get to have a bad use because man will always want to take advantage of it. to me if one can truly study the essence of each religion and its founding principles work with that people will be more appreciative of it...
I dont think Religion is poison.. rather i think MAN IS POISON
I dont think Religion is poison.. rather i think MAN IS POISON
And who invented religions?
I find it amazing how many christians say that muslims need to speak out against terrorism, etc... but, when I show them the bad things their own group is doing, they are all like, "we shouldn't talk about religion, it's a sensitive topic"
So very hypocritical to ignore the flaws in your own group, but insist another group do something...
I believe Jesus said, "Remove the log from your own eye before trying to remove the splinter from someone else's eye"

I think discussing religion is very sensitive. Whatever religion you believe as long as it brings good to you, others, the environment and the universe will be better. I believe all religions teach about the love of fellow human beings.
Yes! Love is the main thing!
I believe Jesus said, "Remove the log from your own eye before trying to remove the splinter from someone else's eye"
Yes!
Need to start with yourself!
It is written: understand yourself and the Scripture!
Hello everybody! ) 
I do not agree with this statement.
God loves absolutely all people.
And gives everyone a chance.
Can a normal father not love his children?
I wish Wisdom, Grace and Blessings to everyone!

Thinking Christianity as a poison seems to be a atheist belief. Only the atheist who are against all religions conclude with these unrealistic statements.
Your distain of Christianity is in my opinion blinding your objectivity. Yes sins have been committed in the name of Christianity. Human beings often embrace evil with or without religion. God teaches us how to improve if we listen. The Catholic church is one of the many human institutions built to honor and serve God. All such institutions are guaranteed to have at best a pale and shallow understanding of God. If you are Catholic you believe the church is the best of these institutions with the most accurate understanding of God.
The Catholic Church is far from perfect. It has many flaws and many crimes have been committed in its name. At the same time it has contributed greatly to human progress.
The claim that science had advanced despite religion completely overlooks the fundamental relationship between God, progress, and freedom. The only reason we have come as far as we have is due to the organizational superstructure provided by the worship of God.
If you are interested in the logic behind this I would refer you to the following posts:
Are you sure about that? I thought church is against the stem research?
I don't look at Christianity as a toxic substance when individuals live calmly, yet when individuals start to pass on due to this religion, it is now extremely a toxin. This applies to all religions, not simply Christianity.
Mental disease is harmful to your brain no matter if you go around killing people or you sit down, drooling all over you, waiting for your medication.
Religion is a mental disorder. Refusal to accept reality, delusions, having visions or hearing voices, dogmatic stance when faced with evidence that invalidates one's religion. It is a brain malfunction.
The greatest mental illness is to neglect being a Christian, or a better Christian.
It is just a speculation on my part, but I think you have some minor brain damage due to the amount of vodka you consume.

1) The Apostles of Jesus Seem to Have Known Nothing about a Virgin Birth (Romans 1:3-4)
2) Jesus Said He Wanted to Offer Nothing to Gentiles (Matthew 10:5, Matthew 15:21-28, Galatians 2:11-14)
3) Jesus Tells Everyone Not to Think of Him as God in the First Three Gospels (Matthew 19:17, Mark 10:18, Luke 18:19)
4) The Resurrection Appearances in the Gospels Have Irreconcilable Differences (The gospels of Matthew and Mark place the appearances solely in Galilee. However, Luke, as well as the book of Acts, has Jesus appearing only in and around Jerusalem. To add to the confusion, the Gospel of John shows Jesus appearing in both Galilee and Jerusalem)
5) Jesus Was Against Public Prayer (Matthew 6:1-5)
6) Some Books of the Bible Are Forgeries (1 and 2 Timothy and Titus)
7) Parts of the Bible Were Intentionally Written to Disagree with Other Parts of the Bible (Psalm 51)

Your conclusions (and those of your link) are narrow explanations of what is really being said, and often are debunked right within themselves.

I personally have no problems with religion, I think for some people it offers some guidance on how to be a positive functioning member of society, its unfortunate when people become too passionate about any form of religion they become extremists. As a non practicing person of any religion. I'm happy to not criticise or judge how others view their existence.
Personally I don't think I will ever be religious... but you know ultimately when somebody is lying on their death bed! they will pray to any god if they think it will offer them any salvation.
