But if you are going to read the gospel of John 8:24, he said that.

"I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins."

So we must believe that He is the "I am he" in short, God the father.

The LORD your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your own brothers. You must listen to him.

It also has wonderful moral lessons... like... if an angry mob wants to rape your house-guests, you should let the mob rape your virgin daughters instead (ref. Lot and the story of Sodom and Gomorrah)




My church did not even segregate these fairy tales based on age... I knew what both sodomy and rape were by the time I was 6
(from the stories, not the priest... super sad that I need to clarify this... just sayin)

Christians recognise Jesus as the Son of God who was sent to save mankind from death and sin.

Jesus Christ taught that he was Son of God. His teachings can be summarised, briefly as the love of God and love of one's neighbour.

Jesus said that he had come to fulfil God's law rather than teach it.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa —

The sanctuary of the Keystone Fellowship Church used to be a safe place for church members to worship and fellowship with others. That changed abruptly Sunday when a member opened fire during service.

An argument began after Mark Storms, 46, told Robert Braxton III, 27, he was sitting in seats reserved for two other church members, according to a statement made by District Attorney Kevin Steele, The New York Daily News reported.

After a church member tapped Braxton on the shoulder to let him know he was in someone else’s seat, Braxton  yelled “don’t (expletive) touch me” an affidavit obtained by NBC Philadelphia said.

Witnesses told reporters that Braxton started making a scene over the seat, but soon calmed down after talking to a church usher and a pastor.

But the situation took a violent turn when Storms approached Braxton, carrying a gun, telling the 27-year-old to get out of the sanctuary.

“When he came over, he had a gun out, escalating the situation,” Steele said at a press conference on Thursday. “Braxton then took a swing at the defendant, punching him in the jaw.”

Braxton then tells Storms “(Expletive) you and your fake badge, get the (expletive) out of here,” according to a witness. “That’s not a real gun,” another witness said she remembered hearing in the their exchange.

Braxton then proceeds to ask, “What are you going to do, shoot me?” according reports.

Storms shot Braxton once in the chest and again in the right arm.

Braxton died of gunshot wounds later that afternoon after being rushed to Abington-Lansdale Hospital.

Storms was arrested and charged with voluntary manslaughter and reckless endangerment.

“Storms’ shooting of Mr. Braxton was not a reasonable self-defense situation,” Steele said. “It just doesn’t make a lot of sense to me to bring a gun to church.”

“You don’t go to church to be killed. You just don’t do that,” Diana Walters, Braxton’s aunt, told WPVI. “He’s a young man. He had his whole life ahead of him.”

During his arraignment, Storms insisted that he used his weapon for self-defense. Bail is set at $250,000.

All the Book talks about doing is destroying evil people and anything that they make evil. Destroying evil is good. The Book is good.

Then later on... on the drive home
I called her mom... from a pay phone
I said I was the cops... and your husband's in jail
The state looks down on sodomy

I disagree with your statement that we shouldn't blame religion... religion is the enabler

Without religion, these people might not have killed anyone...

It's like someone inventing a nuke, then when people misuse it, and destroy the planet, you blame people?  You have to blame both... without the nuke, people would not have been able to destroy the planet... same goes for religion, it enables people to be wicked while believing they are the good guy... (flying an airplane into a building, et al)

It's an evil book, which enables people to act in evil ways

You should understand that ideas, ideologies and religions can't kill others, hate people or something like this.
Only people can do it.
It's very often that people misunderstand basic ideas behind religions and do very bad things in the name of God or their own religion.
Still, we shouldn't accuse religion for it but people.

Faith in Jesus brings the only true peace.   

Chirstianity is not a poison this is the religion which taught us to forgive others and whenever we ask from god he will reply to one ...This is the only religion in the world which seem nice to me,christanity never promote voilence and in this time period world need non violence enviroment 

The only one I trust is me, I will never be swayed by others at all, I have complete faith in me to always do the right thing.

Faith in Jesus brings the only true peace.   

It's quite ironic because as mother teresa said "promoting peace is like establishing a war".

You dont have to beg for someone in order to bring peace, and you cant really solve peace in a jiffy and with a simple statement. It's on a persons own to find his peace.

That is a very good statement, you don't have to be religious to abide by it.

Please make peace and spread peace everywhere

Your "corrections" are simply false... Have you read the bible?  Don't claim you know more about it than I do... you don't

Slavery in the bible was not some nice thing, like you pretend it was... there are plenty of quotes I could pull from the bible, such as:

Yeah, sounds nice... slaves are property, and you are allowed to beat them so long as it does not kill them within 48 hours

The bible also says slaves are property for life, and they can be passed down to your children (Leviticus 25:44)



Rape is justified on many occasions... Have you read the story of Sodom and Gomorrah? Lot hands his virgin daughters to an angry mob to be raped... and this is a good thing according to god...

The bible says, "If a man rapes a virgin woman, he must marry her, and pay her father the bride price of 50 shekels" (Deuteronomy 22:28-29)... I suppose that's a good way to find a wife if you happen to be a super ugly man... not very moral though

Yes the bible commands you to murder homosexuals... don't pretend you have never heard that one before... Leviticus 20:13... ring a bell?

Witches:

Genocide:


For those new to math, threescore = 60... 60 cities... if that isn't genocide, I don't know what is...


More genocide in the bible:


Let us not forget about the flood... god personally kills everyone except for 9 people...  That isn't genocide?

Maybe you should actually read the Bible before you bash it. I edited your post to fix some inaccuracies:

If a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads

The Lord our God delivered him over to us, and we defeated him with his sons and all his people.
So we captured all his cities at that time and utterly destroyed the men, women and children of every city. We left no survivor

So the LORD our God delivered into our hands Og also, the king of Bashan, and all his people: and we smote him until none was left to him remaining.
And we took all his cities at that time, there was not a city which we took not from them, threescore cities, all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
All these cities were fenced with high walls, gates, and bars; beside unwalled towns a great many.
And we utterly destroyed them, as we did unto Sihon king of Heshbon, utterly destroying the men, women, and children, of every city

And when the LORD thy God shall deliver them before thee; thou shalt smite them, and utterly destroy them; thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor shew mercy unto them. Deuteronomy 7:2

And thou shalt consume all the people which the LORD thy God shall deliver thee; thine eye shall have no pity upon them. Deuteronomy 7:16

Thou shalt surely smite the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword, destroying it utterly, and all that is therein, and the cattle thereof, with the edge of the sword. Deuteronomy 13:15

But of the cities of these people, which the LORD thy God doth give thee for an inheritance, thou shalt save alive nothing that breatheth. Deuteronomy 20:16-17

And they utterly destroyed all that was in the city, both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword. Joshua 6:21

So smote all the country ... he left none remaining, but utterly destroyed all that breathed, as the LORD God of Israel commanded. Joshua 10:40

Thus saith the LORD of hosts ... go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass. 1 Samuel 15:2-3
